Return to Let Him Through, He's A Scientist!
Here's a nice list of some classics. I'm sure there are some good ones that aren't on there -- and Aeon with his cruelly high standards for what counts as science-fiction will probably want to kick some off that are on there -- but it's a good start:

Honestly, how can a list which contains Waterworld be taken seriously?
Still, the list reminded me of Colossus - The Forbin Project, which is the original supercomputers-take-over-the-world film and still the best. That film belongs on the top ten list.

I concur - shame on me for neglecting that. I'll have a look at the list Roderick linked to when I get a moment.

Has anyone ever seen The Thirteenth Floor (or 13th Floor)? It's pretty good in my humble opinion and it begins philosophically enough with Descartes "I think, therefore, I am". I liked it. Saw the original Solaris and it was good but way way way too long and I've seen my share of long movies. But still worth watching.
