Arthur C Clarke's List of the best Science-Fiction films of all time

Arthur C. Clarke is quoted as writing: "Here's the rough-cut of my best: I may change my mind on some, but not many..."

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

• Metropolis (1927)
• Things to Come (1936)
• Frankenstein (1931)
• King Kong (1933)
• Forbidden Planet (1956)
• The Thing (1982)
• The Day the Earth Stood Still (1951)
• CE3K (Close Encounters of the Third Kind) Revised version (Special Edition) (1980)
• Alien (1979)
• Blade Runner (1982)

Clarke goes on to say: "No way can I make it ten... I'm still brooding over Jedi (), Khan (), E.T. (E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial). Actually it would make more sense to have two lists: Most important, and Best."
