>>Not every popular song is based on bars from the Nineth... does that mean Cole Porter was influential and Beethoven was not?<<

No, but any musicolgist can cite examples of the direct influence of both on other musicians.

The point is that Audiohead's list was of the 20 most influential science fiction movies, not the twenty best or twenty most important or twenty favorite science fiction films. I just don't see any evidence of Solaris' alleged influence on other films.
