John Carpenters finest work before he got lame and made (Ghosts of mars ), when your stuck in a harsh winter environment and an outbreak hits the camp , who do u trust ? who's your real friend ? and who's be transformed into an evil alien creature , the suspense of it is so thrilling and the isolation plays its cords correctly .

9- District 9 (2009)

8- Alien (1979)

5- Akira (1988)
This original masterpiece was released 1988 with technology that reached the mid 90's in animation , its astonishing how well made it is , its development is a sci-fi movie of itself , the story is dark and sinister and filled with gore. with a menacing project threatening neo-tokyo with crime and corruption running wild .
4- Terminator 2 : Judgment Day (1991)
The sequel that changed the franchise and pushed into new limits , this story of a time traveling machine sent back to protect a kid that will grow up and lead the human forces into a fight against the rising machines , arnold fits this part amazingly with his expressionless face and funny humor , i didnt know that the machine made their terminators in Austria .
3- Star Wars V : The Empire Strikes Back (1980)
It improved the formula of the first Star Wars and made Darth Vader the lead villian and the banter between the princess and Han Solo gets more heart warming with every line , this is the pinnacle of the Star Wars universe , and nothing come close to it. ( except A New Hope )
2- The Matrix (1999)
Imagine A World within a world and you are merely a puppet controlled in every aspect in your life , from birth till death , this movie combined all the requirements of a sci-fi movie and perfected them , every second of this movie is vital to the plot and each scene is surprisingly perfect .
1- Blade Runner (1982) / Inception (2010)
This Is Odd but i really couldn't choose between them , i had to watch them both back to back and they are in the same level of perfection , the story of a Blade Runner ( sort of a detective ) who captures human replicas , or a story of a dream thief trying to juggle realities and dreams to reach for his children .
if you havent seen either of them i recommend you to watch both , and if you seen one im sure you will like the other , cause they reach for the sci-fi genre limits and expands universes from it .
nicely chosen but i would've picked the matrix as #1 =P
ReplyDeleteThe Matrix is a solid movie but inception and blade runner just a tad better than it , they are all amazing movies but those two are the best of the best .
