I actually liked Starship Troopers. I don't know why it got such a bad rap.

Honestly I'm more of a tv-holic than a movie guy. I love some movies but others put me to sleep.
I could watch the original Dawn of the Dead on a continuous loop and not get sick of it. I also LOVE planet of the apes and Back to the Future. and I could watch Grease till it'd make people throw up.
Also love Mad Max trilogy, Star Trek VI, Horror of Dracula, Clint Eastwood's man with no name trilogy, Star Wars, Jurassic Park, Warriors, Superman II & Pee Wee's big adventure.
So there's quite a cross-section.

I like all those movies you listed except for Grease.

I liked Starship Troopes, its just too bad they didn't use the mobile suits from the book.

Alien used to scare the crap outta me. I own it and watched it again recently and fell asleep. LOL
Empire strikes back: would you believe I've never seen this movie from start to finish in one sitting?
Anecdote: I wanted to see this so bad when it was new in the theaters. I finally talked my dad into taking me and my friend to see it. Guess what? It ended it's run the day before! Never saw it in theater.

Man, what a lazy kid. Empire was in theatres for over a year.

Oh come now .....
Those movies were all made before 1968 ?

I was born in 1965. And yes...I love the Classic SiFi Movies as well:

The Valley of Gawngi
King Kong(the Original)
Son of Kong
Mighty Joe Young
20 Million Mile to Earth
The Day the Earth Stood Still
It! The Terror from Beyond Space
The Beast from 20 Thousand Fathoms

Not going to repeat a lot of the great movies mentioned. Need to add one though - Destination Moon. Robert Heinlein was a genius and while the movie was a bit stiff at time, it was soooo ambitious. The effects were amazing for the time.

DUH! Don't you think I know that?
I was a KID (key word, you used it yourself). I didn't have a job or a car. I had to rely on my parents to take me places, etc. Don't you think I asked to go when it first came out? I LOVED Star Wars. Saw it numerous times in the theater.
