5th Element
Space Balls
Nadesico series, subbed (not a movie, but...)

As for Blade Runner... the book was so much better! But then, I didn't like the movie at all, and I'm a Dick fan (the author... )

This is a great series. Anyone who is a fan of anime should see it. It's encouraging that the medium has grown enough to support such great satire. When the series makes fun of other anime, or itself, it isn't very subtle, but then again, neither is anime.

Not as outlandish as Excel Saga, a definite must see.

Yeah, that's a good movie, but not a classic in my books. It's almost like a forerunner of what Skynet was. Maybe James Cameron watched that movie a time or two and came up with Terminator?

I read the book as a kid, but never saw the movie. The book is terribly slow-paced (or so it seemed to me at the time), but it is definitely the blueprint for Terminator.

1. The Thing From Another World (1951)
Based on, but bearing little resemblance to, “Who Goes There” by John W. Campbell.
Now available on DVD.

2. Babylon 5: In the Beginning
We need more starship furballs in sci-fi...

3. Godzilla 1985
Lots of shooting and... Super-X!

Out of the Terminator series, I liked Terminator 2 the best.
From the Star Wars Series, my favorite is Episode V: Empire Strikes Back
From Star Trek, definitely Wrath of Khan.
My favorite Godzilla movie is Godzilla vs Gigara
And yes, In the Beginning was a great Babylon 5 movie...

Other Sci-Fi movies I like:
Independence Day
The Matrix
War of the Worlds
