Edge of Tomorrow (Live, Die, Repeat) is a great one! 2014, Tom Cruise & Emily Blunt.

We will definitely get to Escape from New York cause we are itching for some more John Carpenter!

TBR Schmitt

Haha I know there is a lot but we will make sure we get to every movie on these polls before really refreshing them with other options!

TBR Schmitt

thanks for the suggestion!

TBR Schmitt

We will get to all of these movies eventually cause we really are excited to watch each and every one!

Forbidden Planet probably won't win, but it's an amazing and important movie for the time. Together with The Day the Earth Stood Still, It was one of the first "real" science fiction movies that were not B-movie monster flicks, and you can see the roots of the Star Trek series.

Neal Romanek

Totally agree. But I gave a boost to Invasion Of The Body Snatchers, which is superb.

Terry Gilliam’s “Brazil” (1985) is an awesome Sci-Fi film. No one has a reaction to it on YouTube!

Maybe add "Melancholia" for future sci-fi viewing (I'm guessing that's something you'd watch only after getting through all the usual suspects though). It does have one of my favorite openings ever, though and the film, overall, is both, a thinker and emotionally powerful.

Allan Newell

Too big a poll for my puny mind!! I wanted to vote for Forbidden Planet and Escape From New York, but I wound up voting for 2001 just to try and stop Back to the Future. It gets a lot of love already.

Escape from New York will not beat out Back to the Future or 2001: A Space Odyssey, but it needed some love in my opinion. It is a great example of what John Carpenter can do with building suspense, creating an awesome action film, and turning a relatively unknown Kurt Russell into a leading actor, without relying on horror.
