There Has NEVER been a good scifi movie

C'mon folks, get real. Read a really good scifi novel. Get deeply into it. Then try to think of ANY scifi movie which ever came even remotely close to that experience.

OK, you're right. Alien. That's it and then they ****ed it up with sequellae.

Oh, poopoo.

Donnie Darko is better than any science fiction novels I have ever read. As for Alien, I'm going to say Ender's Game is better than that.

Wolfie Keep on howling!

With movies like Star Wars, The Matrix, and Donnie Darko, I think it's kinda hard to defend that all sci-fi movies are bad.

Exactly.
And on a semi-related note, anyone know the deal with the Ender's Game movie?

There are plenty of excellent sci-fi movies, as has been pointed out....and there's plenty of shit sci-fi novels.

As for the Ender's Game movie...dunno.

When I read Donnie Darko, I was like "donnie darko is NOT scifi!" then after a couple of hours I realized I was thinking of Donnie Brasco 😛 whats donnie darko 'bout anyway?

Thread starter, you're an idiot there are many excellent sci-fi movies.

Crease Who cares...

The best SciFi movies of all time, in this order are:

1. Terminator 2
2. Matrix
3. I Robot
4. Terminator 1
5. If you count the Star Wars saga (which we shouldn't) then Revenge of the Sith comes in 5th. If not, then Chronicles of Riddick comes in 5th.

Almost forgot, Minority Report would be the best SciFi movie ever, but it didn't have enough special effects.

You're wrong.
Good bye. 😄

Most Michael Crichton books that become movies, turn out to be excellent. Jurassic Park, Congo, and Sphere were kick-ass novels that became kick-ass Sci-Fi flicks.

What would you consider Star Wars if its not Sci Fi? And how in the Hell is Alien, Aliens not on that while is above Terminator? Plus Riddick can suck a nut in my opinion. Almost ended my life after seeing it.
