Rate Your Music: 50 Greatest Sci-Fi Movies (Excluding Major Franchises)

What the best science fiction movie charts of Rate Your Music look like if you disallow any movie that belongs to a major franchise like Star Wars, Star Trek, or Marvel from being included. Movies with a single sequel like 2001 or Blade Runner are permitted, but three or more are out (this can sometimes include remakes/reboots in the number, but it depends, multiple adaptations of the same source material are usually not considered part of the same franchise, so Invasion of the Body Snatchers etc are OK). Due to past criticism of RYM sci-fi lists I've posted, animated titles are also excluded: live action movie only. Movies must also have ratings of 1000 or more to be included due to RYM's new charts putting too much emphasis on titles with few ratings that happen to be high, rather than titles that consistently hold a high average score with loads of ratings.
