[QUOTE="Cadence, post: 8555822, member: 6701124"] Seeing "The Day the Earth Stood Still" mentioned had me go look up a few things. The AFI list for sci-fi (put out in 2008, so not much time for things to make this list) had: 1 - 2001: A Space Odyssey -1968 2 - Star Wars - 1977 3 - E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial - 1982 4 - A Clockwork Orange - 1971 5 - The Day the Earth Stood Still - 1951 6 - Blade Runner - 1982 7 - Alien - 1979 8 - Terminator 2: Judgement Day - 1991 9 - Invasion of the Body Snatchers - 1956 10 - Back to the Future - 1985 AFI defines "science fiction" as a genre that marries a scientific or technological premise with imaginative speculation. The other categories were Animation, Courtroom drama, Epic, Fantasy, Gangster, Mystery, Romantic comedy, Sports, and Western.
