The Phantom Menace should have been the winner. By its mere existence it makes the other Star Wars films worse. That's how unnecessary it is. If it was never made, the series would be better AND make more sense.

I really hate these lists. Written and voted on by people who've never seen a movie made before 1977.

And then the stars of both go on to work with each other in Swordfish.

/Halle Berry topless is a redeeming quality.

rtaylor92: the worst thing about Battlefield Earth is that it probably turned a lot of people off from reading what is, in my opinion, one of the most highly entertaining science-fiction novels of all time.

howdyyall9999: I agree, the book was fantastic. I always thought this would work out as a series given a BSG treatment.

You guys are either Scientologists who feel a desperate need to protect the Master's legacy of horrendous science fiction, or you've never read basically any of the classics in the field.

Battlefield: Earth the movie was awful, because the source text was exactly as awful. It's the Twilight of Science Fiction.

I was happy wing commander survived the first round. Sure it was pretty cheesy but I was entertained and its hard to find any sci-fi movies with decent space fights. I did just watch an 80s one on amazon streaming. Cant remember the name but It involved some artificially created chick who betrayed the corp she was working for to claim a 2nd alien crashed ship on a distant planet. Hires some weak blonde hair space ship pilot to get there. Now the acting in that was just terrible. Then again it was the 80s.
