Laser Guns And Monster Suits: Cream's Top 50 Sci-Fi Movies

I would disagree on this. It is in my top 5 favorite science fiction animated films, but not first but I will show in my list if science fiction films.

Indeed. It was the highest grossing film in Japan in 1988.

A serious animated film that is rated R in the US.

I recently watched Metropolis for the first time and really liked it, I always put off watching it because I thought I'd be bored out of my mind watching a black and white silent film but was pleasantly surprised instead.

is They Live considered sci-fi? would have liked to see that one make it. some others i enjoyed not on your list- the Invisible Man (1933), the Time Machine (1960), Forbidden Planet (1956), Close Encounters of the Third Kind (1977), and the Day the Earth Stood Still (1951). but since it's your list,

Oh, Gattaca, way underrated.

^^I agree with that^^

12 monkeys was a great film of it's time, It explored time travel in a different light keeping the film's universe in a constant loop.

I gave it about 18 points in the 1990's list.
