Fuck, thought I'd struggle thinking of 10 seeing as I rarely watch films at the moment. Then I ended up with 10 that I wasn't totally happy with (because 10 wouldn't feel like enough), then another 10 if I could choose 20. Now I'm not sure what films would actually go in the final 10 apart from the first 5 or 6.

 

They're not all my favourite films ever and surely I've forgot some, it's more about what I'd think of as a decent variation of sci-fi and fantasy films seeing as I'd not get to watch anything else.

 

The Matrix
Underworld
Dark City
Contact
Ghost In The Shell (1995 anime)
Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon

Inception
The Dark Knight
The X-Files: Fight the Future
Avengers Age of Ultron

 

The other 10 would be something like :

 

Lord of the Rings 1, 2, 3
A Scanner Darkly
Captain Marvel
Winter Soldier
Doctor Strange
Return of the Jedi
Avatar
The Fifth Element

 

If it was 20 I'd be reasonably content, 10 I'd be gutted!

Of course. I watched it again not so long ago actually. Fantastic soundtrack as well.

Yep. Great soundtrack. The classroom scene in that is one of my favourite movie scenes of all time.
