Slashfilm's 104 Best Sci-Fi Movies Ever

"Science fiction movies often have something to say. Not always, of course! Sometimes the story is a light excuse to show off some cool ideas in new and exciting ways. But the best the genre has to offer sticks with us long after we've watched the credits because something about what it showed us mattered. Whether it's a special effects landmark or the first film to talk about something important to us as a society, science fiction allows pure imagination to blend with possibility. Since Mary Shelley's 'Frankenstein' and Méliès' 'Trip to the Moon,' science fiction has become one of our most introspective and inclusive genres, hiding within the realistic (or not) science and big ideas are examinations of who we are. These movies are all special in some important way, a subjective collection of films that will be worth a science fiction fan's time, either for the first time or for a rewatch to pick up something new. Let's explore." - slashfilm.com
