Time Out's 100 Best Science Fiction Movies

7/20/2014

Time Out London has posted their list of 100 great science fiction movies, selected by a divergent array of writers, critics, and others.  
To make the list, we polled the leading lights in the fields of both science and science fiction, fromworld-beating physicists to award-winning authors, from Oscar-nominated filmmakers to the stars of film and TV. Where else can you find ‘Pacific Rim’ director Guillermo del Toro rubbing shoulders with ‘Game of Thrones’ creator George RR Martin, or C-3PO himself, Anthony Daniels, trading favourites with Nobel Prize-winning geneticist Sir Paul Nurse? How many sci-fi faves do horror-meister Stephen King, ‘The Thing’ director John Carpenter and TV science hero Jim Al-Khalili have in common?

Modesty, of course, forbids me from pointing out one of the contributors. (Scroll down to find out who.)

All told, it's a pretty comprehensive list, and anybody perusing its contents should find something they'll enjoy.
