The NSFWG Top 50 SF Films

Earlier this year, as we were discussing items for the blog, NSFWG chairman Ian Whates suggested the group could put together some "Top 10" style lists.  We agreed, decided to do SF Films first (fantasy and horror to come!) and everyone went off and created their own list.  These were collated (there are twelve of us in the group) and the films ranked.

This is that list, with the films grouped by ranking (ie, the winner got 8 votes) and then listed chronologically by release dates.

Do you agree, disagree, think we missed something?  Then leave a comment!
