I think there are a lot of films missing from this list. For instance, where is 'The Sixth Sense'? - Mark Ryan

Somehow, I don't think I'd quite classify "The Sixth Sense" as scifi... - Nuwewsco 1st May 2006

Think science, think fiction and think milestone. This is a controversially defined genre, and most fans like similar fictions, but there should be some borders drawn. Where? I don't know :) For example, The Planet of the Apes is depicting a new world what the heros reach via scientific methods. I think it should be here.

Other ones like The Bicentennial Man is obviously sci-fis (on ideas from no less than Isaac Asimov); should it belong here? Is it a milestone?

No.

Maybe we could look at http://us.imdb.com/Charts/Votes/sci-fi for ideas. Most of them has been milestones - Loffe

I disagree with the fact that a film has to be a milestone to be included, first of all you'll never get everyone to agree on what films are milestones, secondly some of the greatest examples of sci-fi movies are almost certainly not milestones (I'm thinking 50s B-movies here). However, I did remove Dr. Strangelove, which is without doubt a milestone movie, because I do not feel it is a science fiction movie, I think it was a political satire (it certainly contained very few, if any, sci-fi conventions). Feel free to argue with me if you disagree. Rje 13:57, 7 Nov 2004 (UTC)


Expansion

I added in a host of new Sci-fi-ish titles, many already to be found with write-ups in Wikipedia. You may not agree with several of my additions. (Daredevil? Spider-man?) But I'll leave such filtering for posterity. — RJH 16:28, 20 Oct 2004 (UTC)

Opening description

The article's introduction currently has this sentence in it: "The following list of science fiction films include a number that are notable and all too many that are considered mediocre, including quite a few that have been listed among the worst movies ever made." Although this is undeniably true, is the tone encyclopedic? Is there a better way to phrase this? —Josiah Rowe 22:16, 27 October 2005 (UTC)
