10 Best Science Fiction Movies Ever

Serenity is the best science fiction movie, ever, according to a completely unscientific poll.
Space thriller Serenity has beaten Star Wars to the title of best sci-fi movie in an SFX magazine poll of 3,000 fans. The futuristic release from 2005 was based on the short-lived TV series Firefly. Both were the work of Buffy the Vampire Slayer creator Joss Whedon.
Star Wars – which Whedon has conceded had “an enormous influence” on Serenity – came second in the survey. Blade Runner was third, followed by Planet of the Apes, The Matrix, Alien and Forbidden Planet.
Serenity is about the crew of a space ship of the same name, and at the time of its release, Whedon declared it was a way of showcasing the “gritty” side of the genre.
The Top 10:

8. 2001: A Space Odyssey

10. Back to the Future

I know I’ve missed the latest two installment of Star Wars, but I don’t think that picture is what you think it is. Sure looks like Serenity’s cast to me.
