Serenity tops my list of fav. sci-fi movies & is way up on the list of fav. movies in general. Next in the sci-fi genre would be Contact & the StarWars movies as a whole. Loved Donnie Darko--btw. The family loves The Fifth Element--my kids watch it at least once a week--ha!

Lol - I know exactly how you feel, Chrisisall. I can never watch these movies without immediately ordering a pizza. It's just not fair, they're eating pizza all the time. Especially at the beginning of the second movie. Damn. Now I feel the need to go watch them again.

Reason 1: The grand scale and look to TMP
Reason 2: Jerry Goldsmith's music on TMP
Reason 3: The science fiction story of TMP (as opposed to the action/soap of WOK)
Reason 4: An aversion to Khan's eighties big hair
Reason 5: The death of a main character that you just know they're not gonna let stay dead...
Reason 6: Kirk didn't even get to kick Khan's ass!!!(THE biggest reason, btw

Well it's definitely the best movie of the year. As for the whole "of all time"-thing I think I'll have to wait and see how well it ages, and more importantly if Joss makes new movies that are even better.

Actually, not 'best', I mean favourite.
I can objectivly say Serenity isn't the BEST movie ever made, but I ain't watching the BEST movie ever made every week now, am I?
Chrisisall, Serenity junkie

I can honestly say that while Serenity is not my favorite film of all time, without a doubt Firefly is my favorite TV show of all time.
Serenity is in my top 100 favorite films of all time. I gave it 5 stars on Netflix with no hesitation.
It’s just that my taste in movies is a pretty weird and with a couple of exceptions my favorites are not mainstream American movies. Here’s my current top 10 in no particular order. Except number one.
1. Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon
2. Princess Bride
3. Monty Python and the Holy Grail
4. Amores Perros
5. City of God (aka Cidade de Deus)
6. Streetcar Named the Desire (the one with Brando)
7. Casablanca
8. Raising Arizona
9. Sexy Beast
10. Pulp Fiction
