The 70 Best Sci-Fi Movies I've Ever Seen

The genre of film that I most love in the world, and frequently under-mentioned in discussions of 'greatest movies' by people who ought to know better. Listed in order, and there may even be some in here that hardcore fans have yet to see.
I know some of these are on the borderline between sci-fi and horror/comedy/etc., but if they have aliens I think they still count. I also didn't include zombies or most superheroes as I think those are borderline and kind of their own thing.
