We took a trip through decades of the genre and came up with a list of the most important and best hard science fiction movies of all time. They are the essence and the foundations of the book of sci-fi rules that’s still being written as we, the audience, become much more self-aware of our relationship with technology, the future, and whatever those two will bring.
They forgot Annihilation.
Nothing about that movie is hard. Top tier cosmic horror though.
Also not hard SF. I haven’t seen the movie, but I read the book.
We all forgot Annihilation and for good reason.
