There was this movie called "Terminator 2" that was pretty awesome.

Also "Starship Troopers" and "Robocop" were pretty awesome.

"Stargate" was pretty cool back in the day too, as well as the "Alien" franchise.

Doubt you have ever heard of any of those though since you live under a fucking rock.

Well I am 12 years old going on 13 this December so my mom is going to let me have the Netflix password because now I'm old enough before she wouldn't let me watch those but I'm old enough now she says

Well if there can be only one...it would be back to the future, although highlander is sci-fi as well I guess and it is very good.

Also my runner up recommendations are barbarella psychedelia, and Flash! aaa aaaaaaaa Gordon.

Sorry, the correct answer to only one sci-fi of that era is Aliens. Thanks for playing though.

I thought Deep Rising was a pretty good mindless action flick that didn't get alot of attention...

What are some good 1980s or early 90s sci-fi movies I can watch on Netflix or Amazon Prime?

how keen are you on some half naked, all-wet 17yo Molly Ringwald?

i guess Brainstorm is a scifi film.
Alien Nation was a pretty solid scifi-themed buddy-cop movie.
..and then there's all the animation stuff.
