    Perhaps Not: Good list - I'll have to check out "Robot Stories" and "The Sleep Dealer" - and I totally agree with you about Serenity, not least because I saw it be... more »
    cylon_conspiracy: That's a lot of movies. That's almost 2 movies per year! Glad to see Primer on there. That was a movie I rented based on the cover and I loved how su... more »
    holyspidoo: Blindness is not sci fi is it? In any case, that was bloody good... in that "it makes you feel awful for 2 weeks after you watch" sense. That one sce... more »
    Wookie1972: Thanks for including Eternal Sunshine - the best PKD adaptation that wasn't really a PKD adaptation. more »
    Spaceknight: Serenity gets some serious attention for best scifi of the decade just because of that perfectly crafted moment near the end when you realize "is *any... more »
    Post-Nuked: I really loved seeing Slither in there. I think it is a really over looked film. more »
    mrsatyre002: 28 Days Later would have been perfect if not for the totally unnecessary opening to explain how it started. IMO, 28 would have been much better if it ... more »
    Leland Rzepecki: And here I thought I was the only one who really like Pitch Black. more »
    mrradon: Sunshine was yet another marooned-in-space-and-menaced-by-an-alien-lifeform cliche. It was alternately confusing, pretty, and dull. Might as well make... more »
    GonePostal77: Just my two cents, but while Slither is an entertaining horror film with some sci fi plot elements, it's hardly a science fiction film. Nor is the D... more »
    Muckley: Another vote for Children Of Men. Would also suggest The Fountain, the Solaris remake, and 2046 (whether it counts as sci-fi or not) . And I thought (... more »
    Allen_Richards: When you have a thread approaching 500 posts, some things are going to get buried. [www.netflix.com] That link should make it nice and easy for anyo... more »
    dicksson: Why isn't Code 46 on this list? more »
    Alexis: I always thought that Serenity might be a movie strictly for fans, but I've had many, many people (who aren't into sci-fi) bring the film up to me sin... more »
    Techno_Viking: Why, oh why, is "Outlander" not on this list?! I know it was just recently released, but this film is amazing! more »
    houdinination: [x] Children of Men. Everytime I watch it I have to watch it again, straight away. And since someone mentioned Idiocracy, I'd put it in instead of eit... more »
    Smurf-Revenge: I'm a big fan of Ghost in the Shell: Innocence as well as The Stand Alone Complex and 2nd Gig series. Maybe there needs to be a cartoon/anime list. more »
    Jason Rouse: Am I the only one who didn't like The Host? I rented it after hearing all the hype about it and honestly don't have a clue what everyone liked about ... more »
    justingeist: DD has an amazing soundtrack. The opening with Echo & the Bunnymen's "Killing Moon" is ridiculously awesome. more »
    bluehinter: I agree with most of those, though feel it's a crime against sci-fi that nobody else has mentioned The Fountain and the ultimate dystopian gun-fu flic... more »

    Epic Movie Narratives, Conveniently Charted

    Today's xkcd takes an unusual approach to explaining epic movies: diagraming the interactions between the characters. He charts out Jurassic Park, Lord of the Rings, and the original Star Wars trilogy, and takes an amusing crack at Primer. More »
