21 Sci-Fi Movies to See in 2016
Every year, and sometimes twice a year, I make a list of all the sci-fi movies I’m looking forward to seeing in the coming year. I don’t usually include titles that don’t yet have a release date, so last year, I did a second post with titles that released later in the year. You can find them here: post one | post two
Of those I wanted to watch in 2015, I saw four at the theatre, and three others on DVD or Netflix. Most I enjoyed. Some, I didn’t. My favorites were The Martian, Star Wars: The Force Awakens, Jurassic World, Home, Jupiter Ascending, and Avengers: Age of Ultron. There are many others I had on my list that I still need to see.
With this year’s list, I had 29 movies originally. But, five did not have a set release date. And I took out a couple others to make it 21.
Here they are, with trailers for some of them….
