Movies What is your favourite '70s or '80s SciFi?

Aliens, and Star Wars, most definitely. I watched ALIEN when I was six and loved it every since. I have a ten inch xenomorph figurine even. Though, the second jaw is broken. I own most of the Aliens games and the Colonial Marines Technical Manual. I watched ALL of the movies.

 

Star Wars, of course, and Ghostbusters, but I used to love Battlestar Gallactica. I remember watching parts of episodes while getting ready for school and waiting for the bus. The best thing when school was canceled, or I was sick, was watching the whole episode. heh.

 

I would have to say 1988 Beetlejuice. Still one of my all time favorites.

 

The Re-Animator is totally scary..even as an adult. The Scanners is pretty good too for scifi 80's cheesy goretastic flicks.

 

Alien is a classic, that pretty much influenced my childhood

 

Might as well add to this classic topic...

Hands down, BLADE RUNNER. There's no comparison.
Road Warrior... a classic, but we're entering the Apocalyptic genre.
The Blood of Heroes... another Rutger Hauer masterpiece. Also apocalyptic. I tend to like that genre.
2001: A Space Odyssey.... okay, it's 1968, but it was so ahead of it's time!
The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension... haven't seen this? You don't know what you're missing.
WEST WORLD... a robotic Yul Brynner, too cool!
Silent Running... I cried when that little robot lost his buddy.

 

Star Trek...hands down.

 

Star Wars and Star Trek

 

BLADERUNNER.
BLADERUNNER?
BLADERUNNER.

 

I echo all of the Logan's run statements.

 

80's for me.

 

Star Wars original trilogy.
