9 Scifi Films You Should See That You (Probably) Haven't

John Scalzi has one of those marvelous lists I can't resist. This one is a list of 9 Scifi Films You Should See That You (Probably) Haven't:

Metropolis
Flash Gordon: Space Soldiers
Destination Moon
Alphaville
Solyaris
The Brother from Another Planet
Ghost in the Shell
The Iron Giant
Primer

I'm beside myself with o'er-weening pride that I have seen all 9.

The list at his site is annotated and each film has a link.

  1. I've seen Metropolis and though people rave about it I couldn't get into it. Of the rest I would like to see Destination Moon mostly because Heinlein wrote the screenplay and I'm curious to see how it compares to his novels.
