Definitely should be on the list.
I know a lot of folks didn't enjoy it but what about Event Horizon?

Didn't like Event Horizon.

Only because it deserves a place in the list somewhere, The Arrival of Wang.

I'll try it. Thanks

Pseudo futuristic, but not real sciency.
|
|
|
|
|
some of the OP items are not sciency either, i.e. Dawn of the Dead?

I’d have to say Contact (Jodie Foster) & Gravity especially for its special effects

Solaris, not the remake but the original by Tarkovsky, Solaris (1972) - IMDb[^]
And no, it's not about an operating system

Independence Day (I)
And my favourite recent sci-fi:
The Edge of Tomorrow
Anything that is unrelated to elephants is irrelephant Anonymous
- The problem with quotes on the internet is that you can never tell if they're genuine Winston Churchill, 1944
- Never argue with a fool. Onlookers may not be able to tell the difference. Mark Twain

Not bad but not classics - ID4 would have been a better film if it hadn't been so cheesy.

Gattaca
Ethan Hawke, Uma Thurman, Jude Law at their beginning
one of my favourite...

Existenz - ok it's Cronenberg so it's bound to be a bit yucky in parts, however I thought the ideas and story line were done well and it's layers within layers are interesting.
TimeCrimes - perhaps the best time travelling movie I have seen where everything actually hangs together and makes sense.
The Man From Earth - like Gattaca its more like a play than a movie. The movie is a long conversation between a group of friends, one of whom has an interesting secret they reveal within the movie. The interesting part is seeing how people respond to what he reveals.
Avalon - a Polish Japanese collaborative film about a distopian future and a VR game.
Stalker - ok it's long and boring, actually no it's not! It's a brilliant film!

Ah yes, The Man from Earth - an excellent movie based on a great story. Will add it. TimeCrimes also pretty good.

Soylent Green (wonder what that is?)

Of course and Omega Man.

Starship Troopers was so bad I couldn't finish watching, must have missed the good part.
|

Perhaps Moon and Pitch Black.

Soldier - An underestimated film with Kurt Russell in the lead role.
|
|
|
|
|
Certainly The Blob (1958 version) should be in there. Corny, freaky, weird, hilarious, classic.
|
|
|
|
|
Buckaroo Banzai across the 8th Dimension
Repo Man
"Newer" is NOT automatically better, only Different. (And more complex and bug ridden when it comes to all of the "boutique" languages / frameworks out there
|
|
|
|
|
Invasion Of The Body Snatchers (both the 50s and the 70s versions)
Might be more horror than SF.
Silent Running
Maybe someone's already suggested them (i'm catching up with the thread)
