So far this year I have watched Metropolis and Zardoz for the first time. What are some other must see SciFi movies?

    Great picks. I’m not too concerned with the timing. Even more recent, soon to be classics, are fair game.

        The Truman Show is great but I’m not really sure I would put it in a list of sci fi classics.

          The Truman Show is stealth sci-fi. It has literal world-building.

            Yeah, now that I think about it, if you described Truman show to someone that has never seen it, they would have to think it was sci-fi. But it’s done so well and plays so close to the realm of possibility that I’ve never really considered it sci-fi…
            Whatever it is, it’s brilliant.
