Let's keep Serenity #1!!

Here's another one, but I'm really torn as I love the Millenium Falcon:

Edited to add:
In the second poll, Serenity is beating out all the competition! It's currently beating the Starship Enterprise! Yay!

I love how the Enterprise people moan over Serenity beating their ship in the vote.

It's not really a contest against Serenity. The others stand no chance as good as most of them are.

Half of the movies listed aren't even sci-fi.
Eternal Sunshine is hard to clarify but probably just drama. 28 Days Later is a horror. V For Vendetta is a vigilante/action movie. Blade is a supernatural/action movie.
And yes, I can see they all have an element of sci-fi but in that case so does every Bond movie and Babe as well coz it feaures a pig that can talk!

Now the spaceship tournament was better. Serenity win that of course. The weapon one would be tough as I can't really choose between a lightsaber and the M41a Pulse Rifle.

I'd have to say that Avatar's rather handily beating out Serenity for the money title, though.

I was just thinking the other day after seeing Avatar. Imagine Serenity in 3D...god how cool! Apologies If I'm not the first to post this sentiment.

Oooooooh! No contest. M41a Pulse rifle wins hands down! Always loved the sound those caseless explosive rounds made.

Impresses that SERENITY is so far ahead. Quality vs novelty.

really shouldn't be hard to win that poll of best movie, Avatar was aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawful. James Cameron should be arrested for impersonating someone with talent.
