  2. Planet of the Vampires

  3. Worst list ever.

  4. The bicentenal men?

  5. @Taffthat says:

    Um….LOL am the only one flabbergasted that Episode 7 is on this list and not A New Hope OR EVEN The Empire Strikes Back? Total garbage. That movie literally steals everything from A New Hope. Where is Alien or Aliens? Who wrote this cuz they need to slapped.

  6. @Aguafy says:

    Chronicle 2012

  7. Interstellar has to be on this list and in the top 10 I think.
    I struggle to disagree with Children of Men, purely because it is better than a lot of people realise. It is so close to how humanity would most likely react over time it's a scary.

    I personally would have Blade Runner 2049 in the top 5. I can't help but feel that it didn't just matchup to the original, but, for me, it surpassed it. Either way, that is work of insanely high standard.
    Minority Report that low down must have a question mark next to it.

    Ready Player One….. I was surprised to see that that wasn't listed.

    I can't end this comment without addressing Serenity. I know it doesn't have the budget and the look of a major Hollywood backed film, and whilst i know it isn't as tightly made as many around it, Serenity (like Firefly) is a masterclass of assemble cast writing along with a casting of absolute perfection.

    Firefly/Serenity is adored by so many because underneath the asthetic it's got a heart that beats so powerfully and memorably that i must say that it should be in the top 20.

  8. star wars VI VII e VIII shouldn't even exist…

  9. Stalker, Solaris 1972

  10. No mention of Dune?

    You reference Interstellar, but fail to even give it an honorable mention?

    This list is good, but those two omissions are GLARING.

  11. Tom cruise is creepy

  12. Star wars ruined it with bringing in black actors so sad

  13. @Unagi884 says:

    Blade Runner 2049 is my absolute favorite contemporary sci-fi film…

  14. Children of Men: Agree. Totally agree. Clive Owen is unbelievable in this film.

  15. The reason the Martian has to be number one is because it's heavy on actual science and tech, portrayed realistically (for the most part), unlike all the other purportedly sci-FI movies.

  16. @QuietBob says:

    lack of interstellar and prometheus etc was only to get the comment section like it is

  17. No the matrix is ridiculous!

  18. 10:43 one of my fav movies of all time, million times better than any cringe woke shit that gets nominated for oscar these days

  19. @pc-easy says:

    ready player one

  20. Spectral is nice movie

  21. rly? that number one? it's slow sluggish compared to the rest of the list

  22. @tazp2773 says:

    Prometheus should be on this list

  23. lmao the list is absolutely terrible, so many better options

  24. I'd say the best sci-fi film since the year 2000 remains to be TITAN A.E. An animated masterpiece with a killer soundtrack!

  25. GTFO with The Force Awakens. That movie killed the franchise & killed one of the most beloved characters in Sci-Fi, Han Solo.

  26. I agree with some other people in the coments that intestellar has to be here. I know that inception was there but in my opinion inception and interstellar are both worthy of being in this video

  27. Great number 7

  28. Whoever ranked these movies needs to sort their priorities.

  29. district 9 is SO GOOD i cannot begin to tell you omg you need to watch it right NOW.

  30. You lost me at Force Awakens

  31. Donny Darko Sci Fi ? Funny list

  32. @socasack says:

    Star Wars sucks ass and should be nowhere near a top list.

  33. I thought District 9 was genius. Especially considering where it was made.

  40. #20 is #1 in my book.

  41. Edge of Tomorrow

  42. … где "Прометей", "Интерстеллар", "Красная планета". Когда наконец то будет стоящий топ- рейтинг хоть раз, что я когда то увижу.

  43. Blade runner 2 was meh. Otherwise great list.

  44. This is probably the best sci-fi movie list I’ve seen so far. And I am so glad you did not include any superhero movies.
    Good job

  45. So your telling me that Star Wars the force Awakens is on this list but Revenge of the Sith isn’t even mentioned CRAZY

  46. @itwizpro says:

    LIFE (2017)

  47. You lost me as soon as Star Wars: the Force Awakens was on the list at all. Poorly written and very average.

  48. Very nice list thanks! But for me Mad Max Fury Road ( generally overrated movie) before Inception NO! Interstellar out NO!

  49. Solid #1 with Children of Men

  50. Also where is:
    -Alita Battle Angel
    -Annihilation
    -Alien Prometheus/ Covenant
    -Interstellar
    -Oblivion
    -Dune
    ?????????????????????

  51. I have sci-fi fever and i need to tame it down.

  52. I just watched 19 and it was the worst movie ever. It’s not even sci-fi

  53. I get Gravity's appeal but i personally was so bored watching it, lol.

  54. Some of those, while great, aren’t sci fi.

  57. LMAO – dreadful, so many missing, needs to be Best 50 at least, maybe 100. How can you choose The Force Awakens over Star Wars?! Nuts!!
    no mention of Fifth Element, Twelve Monkeys, 2001, 2010, Close Encounters of the Third Kind, Interstellar, Tenet, Bladerunner, Predator, Alien, Aliens, Prometheus, Terminator 1&2, The Abyss, Total Recall (both), Matrix x3, Pitch Black, Chronicles of Riddick, Highlander, Contact, The Thing, Rollerball, Forbidden Planet, The Time Machine, Enemy Mine, Back to the Future, Starship Troopers, Super 8, The Fly, Pacific Rim, Battleship, Cloverfield, Cloverfield Paradox, Predestination, Ready Player One & possibly a few more I can't think of… how many's that? haha
    I agree with a few listed but some are pants

  58. I need to watch Blade Runner 2049 again. Or maybe I need to watch the original Blade Runner first. Because when I left the theater my first thought was "well there's 2 hrs 49 minutes of my life I'll never get back". And I adore Ryan Gosling. I agree with the top choice. Children of Men was amazing and mesmerizing. I was surprised by how many of these movies I have not seen.

  59. Curious that Interstellar and Oblivion (2013) are not on the list

  60. @Spaceyke says:

    lol i ended this youtube vid when they proclaimed : the force awakens to be a top 20 movie . Star wars hasn't been top 20 in anything in decades

  61. White William Jackson Deborah Hall Deborah

  62. @ecosti says:

    Coherence is insane

  63. How dare you put Donnie Darko so far down the list. I think you should apologize.

  64. @fof1353 says:

    Star wars 7 better than Revenge of the sith?????

  65. Finally someone recognizing Children of Men.

  66. @S_Pille says:

    Not putting Interstellar on the top Spot ist questionable, but Not even including it at all must be a joke. And what about Dune?

  67. Donnie Darko I had to watch videos, read articles to understand it

  68. I never liked WatchMojo but Why is Star Wars The Force Awakens on here?

  69. @dasa5693 says:

    Please remove Star Wars from the list

  70. You seem like the type of guy whose favorite director is Michael Bay

  71. @dredh8802 says:

    We are not talking about best Sci movie ever .. it is one of the best movies in the history of the cinema. Interstellar!

  72. It's weird that you say Adam Driver showed how good an actor he is in A Force Awakens. I hated him in that movie. He came across as a spoiled petulant jerk. Now, maybe that is what he was trying to be. I found him incredibly unlikeable.

  73. Not putting the martian on the actual list is criminal. It's probably better than like 12 of the ones you picked. Hell, attack the block is better than some of your picks. I don't even like Intersteller, but how on earth did you overlook that?

  74. where is interstellar and lucy and also marvel movies may be superhero movies but they contain alot of science to be made….

  75. Interstellar or Dune not even getting honourable mentions?????? Your list should have been called:

    ‘20 Sci-Fi movies of the Century’

  76. The Farce Awakens…a runny turd at best

  77. This is a joke, right?

  78. no interstellar but you better be damned if they didn't add the force awakens as a dogshit movie

  79. No way the force awakens is better than interstellar

  80. YES EDGE OF TOMORROW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  81. EDGE OF TOMORROW SHOULD BE HIGHER!

  82. clockwork orange, predator

  83. When shortyass gets over his ego. No wait t
    Give him a one way ride to anywhere. The arrogant swine

  84. How gravity is better than The Martian

  85. Your selection of movies are worst

  86. @HankPanky says:

    Another pathetic watchmojo list. Missing Oblivion and many more.
