If you want a nice roundup of Godzilla’s greatest hits, check out our own Jim Vorel’s ranking of Godzilla’s cinematic oeuvre. We’ve also left off, for the most part, the traditional giant monster/kaiju movie for the same reason. Though so many superhero stories involve the stuff of science fiction-aliens, high-tech and strange worlds-there are plenty of great sci-fi movies to include on this list without bumping 20 of them off for DC and the MCU.
