WHY NOT BINGE ON SC-FI MOVIES WHILE ON YOUR SUMMER BREAK?
There are different lists online. Below are three links with their TOP TEN films counted down. The first list  from TIMEOUT London polled "leading lights of both science and science fiction, from physicists to authors, from Oscar Nominated filmmakers to the starts of film and TV”. This site is the easiest to browse all 100 films as they are grouped by 10 (100-91, 90-81, 80-71...etc).
