Top 10 SF movie favourites

Hey.

What are your favourite SF movies ever?

Here are mine, in no particular order:

Moon. Directed by Duncan Jones, David Bowie's son

Blade Runner. The first one, that is, though I enjoyed the 2049 too. 

Brooding, noir. The book if anything is even better.

Logan' Run  Yes I know, an oldie. But it sticks in the mind. Time is short.

.........and never more so than with Never Let me Go. An idyllic boarding school is where the spare-part clones grow up 

Space Odyssey 2001. Yes I know computers evelved way beyond this stage

The Time Machine. Very innovative shooting for the, erm,  time. 

Alien. Despite all the prequels and sequels, this is still the absolute best

Quatermass and the Pit. Good and spooky.

Solaris The second one. How not to make first contact.

Ex Machina. Here, the CEO who plays Feletto really an absolute jerk, all said and done.

Agree or not? What are your favourites?

    And while we are on the subject....

    I got a television series DVD of a book I really like, The City and the City!

    1. For those who don't know, this is a tale of two cities, except that they inhabit the same space and learn from an early age not to 'see' parts of the other city - or be punished. 

    Great concept!

    This is actually a good observation on the way we live in society today. 

    Though the punishment is exclusion, the exclusion leads to being taken advantage of and suffering the cruelty of others because none cares.
