Best Sci-Fi

[shipperx]

Over on Cold Dead Seed someone linked to a poll of the "Best Sci-Fi Movie Ever" and Browncoats have apparently been busy little beavers as they have managed to have Serenity winning by a substantial margin. Not to get into my opinion of Firefly and not to insult the movie (or Joss), but, seriously? The runaway best sci-fi movie ever? I'm sure that those who love it, really, really love it. But, I'm sorry... I just can't accept that it's the "best sci-fi movie ever". In reaction, I'm doing a poll myself. What is the best Sci-Fi movie? (And I'm not including Fantasy, which means that, I am excluding such gems as the LOTR trilogy, Pirates of the Caribbean, Excalibur, Indiana Jones, etc. These are genre, but they aren't really Science Fiction). So... poll:

[Poll #945514]


P.S. I realize that I'm leaving out some strong contenders, but I had reached the limit of possible answers that the LJ poll maker would allow

P.P.S Sorry for misspelling Frankenstein, but it won't allow me to edit it.

Hee! No argument from me. Charleston Heston had a way with those kind of apocalyptic statements. If it's not "Damn you!" with his fist in the air as he looked up at the Statue of Liberty it was "Soilent Green is people!". I always had great affection for Angel for having recognized that fact. :)

I'm a shameless Heston fangirl, I admit it. That bit in Wayne's World 2 where they pull in Charlton to do a bit scene because they just "need a better actor" makes me smile like a mad thing. He's just got this way of delivering the high emotion that really does it for me. (Although this probably goes back to The Ten Commandments, which may also explain why bald guys look teh sexy to me.) : )

Great, thanks you two. Now I have the image of Heston (or phil hartman impersonating him) shaking his fist crying, Damn you!!!!!!

Actually, throw me into the soft spot for PotA (and not the crappy Marky Mark version)
