Another for the 'I can't believe I forgot to include' list: Sunshine.

On the other hand, I never cared for Predator 2, which always struck me as silly and a very disappointing sequel.

Sunshine was close to appearing on my list too.

I really like Predator 2; the less said about the AVP films and Predators the better though!

Very true – they are a prime example of Hollywood's lack of imagination and ambition, turning to well-known franchise names, or 'brands', instead of taking a risk. That's why I appreciate films such as Transcendence, Interstellar, Inception, Under the Skin and Ex Machina so much. Sunshine would also fit into that list because it's one of those which doesn't treat the audience as a group of brainless popcorn munchers, regarding them as intelligent, sentient beings.

My GF introduced me to Sunshine for years she was telling me it was a great film I picked it up cheap last year on blu ray she was right.

I love the change in tone and setting of Predator 2.

Default Cult Lab's Ultimate Sci-Fi List

I thought that Westworld would be higher up the list, surprised it's so low down
