Here's my short list

So these are "serious" scifi films, embodying someone's vision of the future with some embedded moral lession that gives the story relevence and moves it beyond a live action "Popular Mechanics" feel. I have to put a plug in here for some of the original programming on SciFi channel, not specifically a "movie", but definitely serious scifi.

1. Forbidden Planet
2. 2001
3. Clockwork Orange
4. Silent Running
5. Star Wars (just can't resist)
6. Omega Man/Planet of the Apes/Soylent Green
7. Donne Darko
8. Blade Runner
9. Battlestar Galactica (SciFi)
10. Sunshine

Sorry...I thought the cinematic version of "Dune" was beyond lame compared to the book. I agree with the running commentary on "Contact", but I really enjoyed the film anyways. Also, a top ten list is fun, but a little constrained.

Thanks for reading.
