I think that if the time travel is the result of science, it belongs in science-fiction rather than fantasy, but then my fantasy pick (The Prestige) is one where a seemingly magical thing is in fact the result of science, too. Honestly, I think the fantasy category is probably the most poorly defined of all IMDB's, as it has a very fuzzy line with science fiction, horror, and other genres, and also includes a lot of movies that I would consider magic realism.

Anyway, great to see both Back to the Future and Ghostbusters get picked.
