The Fifth Element should totally be up there.
Who was the real power? The Captain? or Tenille?

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Visually that movie was cool, but the plot was too goofy. Bruce Willis saves the world by having sex with a supermodel?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
There are worse ways to save the world.

Yeah, but... that's even less realistic than sound in space.

Hey. New board.
Yeah, but it had an opera alien! And... and... and... Milla is hot!
ETA: My Science Fiction movie list isn't all that different. Mine's not in any particular order, though here it is:
Bladerunner
The Matrix
Serenity
The Empire Strikes Back
Star Wars
Alien
ET
Children of Men
... that might actually be the end of my list. I can't think of any sci fi movies I really love outside of that list, oddly enough. Unless we're counting X-Men and X2, which makes as much sense as anything, in which case they can complete the list.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
Love Fifth Element. It's incredibly goofy, but that's probably why I love it. Plus, the only movie I can remember with techno opera in it.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
I play the Diva's performance just by itself sometimes.
But I confess, I love Zorg's "Chaos, disorder, despair" speech, too. "And a tiny miracle ensues."

OK, let me retroactively add The Fifth Element to my quiz answers as "A movie I had to watch multiple times before I appreciated it." First time I saw it, I thought it was a big dumb showy ripoff. Now I really like it.

"Look at all these little things. So busy now. Notice how each one is useful. What a lovely ballet ensues so full of form and color. Now, think about all those people that created them. Technicians, engineers, hundreds of people who'll be able to feed their children tonight so those children can grow up big and strong and have little teeny weeny children of their own, and so on and so forth. Thus, adding to the great chain... of life."
Always makes me smile.

It looks like Summer Glau is on tonight's episode of the Unit.
