How could I forget Tron???

I also liked Mission to Mars, the recent one.
That's right! The really weird Gary Sinise one.

My favourite science-fiction is Forrest Gump (i call it science fiction because the slow autistic got the NT wife and made her happy).

Was it ever really specified that Autism is what he had?

It's not too idealistic, since she dies soon after they're married.

Forbidden Planet was great. it was interesting to see Leslie Nielson in a non-comedy rote.

Andromeda Strain was technically excellent. They handled the technology aspects of the story rather well.

Not sure if all these count as pure sci fi. But anyway. Some that I've not seen on the lists so far:

THX 1138
A Clockwork Orange
The Day The Earth Stood Still
Rollerball
Children of Men
Pitch Black
Existenz
2001: ASO
They Live
Total Recall
Strange Days
Planet of the Apes
The Fifth Element

I like a lot of the previously mentioned too, even Sphere, which is great despite how bad it is.
