Best Science Fiction Movies Ever

My list of best science movies ever:

• 2001: A Space Odyssey - the story is superior, the sets and effects still look modern.
• Blade Runner  - again, the story is superior, the sets and effects still look modern. The attention to detail is amazing.
• Star Wars - simple minded but so audacious. Too many false notes to be the top
• The Matrix; Terminator - both stories excellent and very distinct but somehow similar. Hard to distinguish quality.
• Jurassic Park - almost too commercial
• Planet of the Apes - kitschy sets and costumes and dialog and acting (after the first one, they are all very amateurish), but rich in sci fi. This is the only one of mine that I think is very questionable. But I think it deserves a lot more credit.
• Road Warrior (and Mad Max I) - 
• Brazil; Memento (I know they're not considered scifi, but both belong here for me)
• Too recent to judge reliably: Inception; Minority Report; Gravity; The Martian; District 9; Avatar; Children of Men; Source Code; Edge of Tomorrow; Looper; Predestination; Surrogates; Elysium; Limitless; Interstellar. I really liked all of these but I can't tell if they'll mean much to me later.
• 12/16 Arrival

I'm making little distinction between a single great movie in a series and the rest of the series. All of these refer mostly to the first ones in a series. I don't know what it is about Star Trek. The TV shows are way better than the movies; but the movies are somehow terrible (except as everyone agrees ST II: The Wrath of Khan). The modern J.J. Abrams reboots are enjoyable but nothing new and forgettable.

A handful require a mention but just don't make the list: THX-138; A Boy and his Dog; The Andromeda Strain; Stalker; A Clockwork Orange; Sleeper; Galaxy Quest; were all important when I was younger, but not really anymore (well, every other line in Sleeper is memorable).

I feel like I have to mention The Day the Earth Stood Still; Forbidden Planet; Metropolis only because they're near the top of everyone else's list. But I have to be honest and say they just feel so all around dated. 

Most scifi movies are just junk: action-adventure schlock.

I went through a few top 100 lists just to make sure I wasn't leaving any out. If the title is not in this list (and there's lots), sorry, I just didn't think enough of it. If you were to ask me about one not here, I'd probably say, "I suppose it was OK, but it just doesn't fit in my best ever list". For example Tron. I remember being very excited about that as a kid, but, despite its main idea, it's just not that great. Some people think Dune (by David Lynch) was epic, but I feel like they must have seen a different movie (I thought the film was terrible) and their opinion was colored too much by the book. Soylent Green, Westworld, and The Omega Man - these are of the same kitschiness as Planet of the Apes, but only have one note each (also Charlton Heston mostly; is that the problem?).

The only one I feel bad about not putting on the list above is Wall-E. It's obviously well-done, there are a number of things in it that are memorable and prescient. But all I can say is "sorry animation".

At the end all I can say is that this is not opinion, it is objective truth. So if you don't agree, either you're wrong, or I have made a transcription error.
