Your Top 5 Favorite Science Fiction Films

[FendersRule]

I am creating a youtube video series (with influences from the Angry Video Game nerd and Happy Video Game Nerd) about my top 5 favorite science fiction flicks.

I'll link the website when I am finished, but I don't want to give them away now. I have to keep the audience someone wondering about the next I will likely create a series of videos. I am going to include movie footage from these videos as well. Is there any disclaimer, etc that I need to put at the end of these videos to compensate for copyright laws?

Anyhow, what are your top 5 favorite science fiction flicks?

I think 5 films is too limiting so I'm creating a "classics/older" list and a newer list.

Classics/Older
1 - The Thing
2 - The Day the Earth Stood Still (with Michael Rennie and Patricia Neal)
3 - Them
4 - War of the Worlds (Gene Barry version)
5 - Forbidden Planet (ya gotta love Anne Francis, the film's heroine)

Classics/Newer
1 - Star Trek - The Wrath of Khan (as well as the majority of other ST films)
2 - Stars Wars - episodes 4-6
3 - Aliens (just the second film)
4 - Terminator 2
5 - The Thing (John Carpenter's remake)

I would add in other films such as the Ring Trilogy but I think those should be posted under another category such as Fantasy.

I love Alien but it is really a monster film set in space. Its sequel, Aliens, is a war film set in space. Independence Day a sci-fi film? Really?
