My favorite ten SF movies:
1) The Man Who Fell to Earth
2) Brazil
3) Planet of the Apes (original only!)
4) Liquid Sky
5) 1984
6) Metropolis
7) A Clockwork Orange
8) Star Wars (analog only, and yeah, it's space fantasy and forever wrapped in pop culture in annoying ways, but it was still so damn well done!)
9) Soylent Green
10) A Scanner Darkly
I like Blade Runner, but yes, it is really overrated. It did stand up well as far as creating scenery, but nothing compared to Metropolis on that front.
