Seriously, I can't exactly see where you're coming from, ...okay, perhaps you were hiding behind a Shrub Outside and I missed being blind-sided, ...but looking back over my list here's the Top 20 (i.e., 23) breakdown:

Science Fiction (1) - Metropolis

Horror (3) - Enigma, The Ring & Frailty

Psychlogical drama (2) - One Hour Photo & Red Dragon

Comedy (1) - Catch Me If You Can

Action/Adventure [superhero] (2) - Spiderman & Blade II: Bloodhunt

Supernatural drama (1) - The Mothman Prophecies

Fantasy (3) - LoTR:TTT, Harry Potter:TCoS and Brotherhood of the Wolf

Non-fiction Drama (2) - 8 Mile & K-19: Widowmaker

Fiction Drama (2) - The Road to Perdition & Changing Lanes

Crime Drama (2) - Knockaround Guys & Gangs of New York

Action/Adventure [spy] (4) - The Bourne Identity, XXX, Die Another Day & The Sum of All Fears

Of course there are more SF films among those which didn't make my Top Twenty-something list, but I also didn't list every film that I'd seen last year.

>>> "I dunno, AuPh, I dunno... looks like about 70% of your list is the films that have nothing to do with reality... rayguns, superheros... is there something we should know about you?" <<<

LOL! Not really, but so what? I like science fiction; it's only a portion of a fairly broad range of cinema that I like and better than a lot of the cheese that passes for "stimulating" film fare; I prefer sleeping at home in my own bed rather than in a movie theater, thankyou very much!
