In Reply to: The 20 Most Influential Sci-Fi Films of All-Time. posted by AudioHead on December 31, 2001 at 09:51:49:
If this were a popularity poll, which it actually was, then I would agree (somewhat) with the list at least as it subjectively reflects the opinions of the magazine's staff. However, "influential" is a word that begs for more objective analysis. That means an in-depth examination of all SF genre films to establish which film(s) had an influence on the creative process of those film(s) following it or which films influenced specific scientific change in the world.With that in mind, there are many overlooked films, possibly even serials(!), which are deserving of credit on a list of influential science fiction films. Examples: Frau im Mond (aka The Woman in the Moon, 1929), the German film which established rocket countdowns, Phase IV, the 1970's U.S. film about ants developing intelligence to go along with their hive mentality, Robocop, the 1980's U.S. film which challanges the moral concept of what constitutes human life, and many others, too numerous to mention.
OTOH, as a subjective listing from 1997 of popular science fiction films (i.e., from Cinescape's Douglas Perry, Mo Ryan, Kristin Kloberdanz, & Frank Kurtz) AudioHead's posting isn't too far off, IMHO.
