[the_matrix_guy]

Ya I agree BTTF is by far my favourite series. I always would watch it back to back to back to back to the future. Lol

Probably not a "flick" but for me it's Blade Runner

I have to rewatch this. Thanks for the reminder. We’ve been on a sci fi watching binge since Christmas

Classic chugging antifreeze.. that shits got some kick

[Grendel]

There was a lot of good and bad SciFi during the 80s but of the ones listed in the poll for me Aliens just edged out the Thing as my favorite.

[Memornix]

Ice Pirates

I was beginning to think I was the only person to ever see this movie

[Frmrspec]

A man of culture I see..

[Jonnydread]

The Thing is one of my favorite movies and I’m a slut for horror, this is a no brainer for me.

[Sneak Miester]

Wow this is a tuff one
im a huge Star Wars fan
terminator was awesome
predator was fantastic
the first time I saw Alien (not Aliens) I was at a drive in while on psychedelic drugs…what a trip

predator

[boomersruckus]

Tron
My science project
Transformers the movie

My science project has one of the best one line quotes ever. When the gladiator yells at them in Latin and the nerd dude translates it... Absolute classic and I quote it to this day

[Rickfactor2]

It even inspired the creation of real-world leagues for the game.

I have to check this out

[Grendel]

My daughter gave a me "the Blood of Heroes" on DVD to me for my birthday this year. She remembered it from our VHS days but did not see it on the server. Love Rutger Hauer and a lot of his 80s movies/

[SignOfZeta]

Man…that list is *short*…and it only includes movies that made money. It’s…not a great list, sorry.

Also…where did you get all that weird AI generated looking art?

BLADE FUCKING RUNNER isn’t on this list and it’s slam dunk #1. No danger.

Others sadly missing…

Brazil
Angel’s Egg
Buckaroo Banzai
Nausicaa of the Valley of Wind
Max Headroom - 20 Minutes Into the Future
The Heroic Trio
Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure
Repo Man
Transformers The Movie
Gundam I-III
I don’t think When the Wind Blows really counts…
Heavy Metal

[boomersruckus]

I remember when Nausicaa in the valley of the wind was called Warriors of the wind. I absolutely love that movie. It was one of the first animations of that style if my memory is correct. Stunning movie

[JeepDVLZ45]

Bill and Ted! Heck yea, I don’t know why, but Inever really considered it a Sci-fi movie until right now…it makes sense and belongs in this genre
