The Matrix, Ex Machina, Interstellar, and Alien are my favorite sci-fi movies.

However, I much prefer Sci-Fi books to Sci-Fi movies. Ender's Game, Dune, Slaughterhouse Five, Foundation, Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, Sphere, Andromeda Strain....brilliant books that didn't translate well to the screen. I prefer to read it and picture it in my head, and think in general movies do a poor job of replicating science that doesn't exist.

However, the fantasy genre translates very well to the screen. Lord of the Rings, Game of Thrones, Stranger Things, etc. Costume design > replicating non-existent technology I suppose
