Yahoo users name Transformers 3rd highest rated sci-fi film

Good for the movie, I guess.

But otherwise, eh, who cares?

This list is pretty far off the mark...I mean I LOVED the Iron Man movie, but it is NOT the best sci-fi movie of all time...

I mean REALLY (Their list, not mine):

30: Serenity
29: X-Men 3
28: I am Legend
27: Donny Darko
26: X-Men 2
25: Deja Vu
24: Eternal Sunshine of the Spottless Mind
23: Ghostbusters
22: V For Vendetta
21: The Terminator
20: X-Men
19: Predator
18: Superman
17: Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith
16: Alien
15: Spider-Man
14: Jurassic Park
13: Termintaor 2
12: The Incredibles
11: Close Encounters
10: The Day The Earth Stood Still
9: E.T.
8: The Matrix
7: Back To The Future
6: Aliens
5: Return of the Jedi
4: The Empire Strikes Back
3: Transformers
2: Star Wars
1: Iron Man

OK, there are a lot of movies that definately belong....but there's a lot of movies that certainly could be replaced by MUCH better Sci-Fi....BLADE RUNNER, 2001, Wrath of Kahn, it looks like this survey was taken at a comic book convention...or maybe outside of the Marvel Comics offices...

Fuck that... The Empire Strikes Back is the greatest Sci-Fi film of all time, closely followed by The Day the Earth Stood Still.

Transformers wouldn't even make my top 10.

Thing is it's not some random list some guy thought up. It's based on the User Reviews ratings. That's why most of the movies are recent ones and why Iron Man can take number one. It's not based on actual mermits of the movie per say but what people thought of the movies.

When I saw they included Superhero films, I was surprise to not see The Dark Knight.

I'd much rather see a list like this complied from film historians, renowned film critics, and sci-fi historians.

Ask 100 people right now what their favorite Superhero film is and most of them will probably say The Dark Knight. The current popularity of certain films will not result in a definitive answer for the best film in the Superhero genre, which is why that list fails completely.

Going on what Yahoo! users currently think will just give you what's been popular in the past 10 years, and anything older there is just what people have had crammed down their necks as what is considered "groundbreaking" and "all time classic", which is unfortunate since a lot of those older film are just that, very revolutionary films that helped change the way we make movies.

that list is all sorts of fucked up.

Transformers 2007, for what it could have been, could be number 1.

Transformers 2007, for what we got, shouldn't even be in the list.

QFT!!! Tf 2007 is not even in my 100 list.

Eh, I dunno, all of my top movies are on there, though in different places than I'd have put them (my top 5):

1. Transformers
2. X2
3. The Incredibles
4. Ironman
5. X-Men/X3 (tie)
