2)  Forbidden Planet
3)  Alien/Aliens

---  Almost listed the first Superman movie but I think that's more a fantasy tale.  I'm sure I'm forgetting an important one.

Of course Star Wars and Star Trek are top...

1. Serenity
2. Galaxy Quest
3. The Last Starfighter
4. Tron
5. Starship Troopers

I would have to contend the entries for Star Wars being sci-fi as technically they are FANTASY films set in a space setting. There is little to nothing of science within the films at all. That said my favorite sci-fi movies are:

1. Close Encounters of the Third Kind (1977)
2. Frankenstein (1931)
3. Metropolis (1927)
4. The Day The Earth Stood Still (1951)
5. When Worlds Collide (1951)

Trek and Star Wars aside (as I love almost all of them). Here are mine...again in no particular order:

Terminator
Starship Troopers
Tron
Alien(s)
The Matrix


I left Serenity off the list because I have always seen the show and subsequently, the movie as a Western set in space.  I love them but it never felt right to me to classify it as Sci-Fi.
