Hal was good but anyone who tells me that 2001 was the best sci-fi film of all time will have to step outside.

I think once you have watched that film all the way through, that voice always stays with you. It's just one of those great movies. Although the ending winds people up but I liked it. R.I.P..

Another hugely overrated derivative movie. Of course, Sci fi covers a lot of possibilities both cerebral and daft but for pure enjoyment, you can't beat Alien and Aliens.

From time to time I give it a sideways glance to its position on the bookshelf.....with the micro anxiety of knowing that if I unwrap it I'm probably going to disappoint myself. First world problems eh.

I mostly agree: 12 Monkeys was a bit pretentious....Mind you Arrival took that to a new art form, spending most of its time staring up its own arse......AI was a bit sad....good movie....but tears aren't my style.....The Planet of the Apes...which one...I remember wanting to shag the chimp Helena Bonham Carter played....is that wrong? I think it's wrong...but hell.....I wonder how an actor playing a chimp orgasms....No this is definitely wrong. Haven't seen Contact and Fahrenheit 451. All the rest are classics.

I agree that Arrival was a little 'arty'. Surely Bladerunner was a little pretentious too. 12 Monkey's had the great and strangely moving pay off ending.
