Reader Top Ten Science Fiction Films: Rob B at Edge of the Fringe


Reader and blogger Rob B. at Edge of the Fringe contributes his top ten list this afternoon. 

Check it out:

The Day the Earth Stood Still (1951)
Forbidden Planet (1956)
2001: A Space Odyssey (1968)
Planet of the Apes (1968)
Close Encounters of the Third Kind (1977)
The Empire Strikes Back (1980)
The Thing (1982)
Blade Runner (1982)
The Matrix (1999)
Sunshine (2007)

I am very happy to see Sunshine on the official tally.  It has cracked at least a few "honorable mention" lists, but I believe this is its first appearance in a top ten.  Cool!
