Likely going to need some write-ins for this but Best Sci Fi Actor? Ill try to make it so they've played a prominent role in at least 2 separate Sci Fi movies/franchises. But feel free to go with whatever:

1) Harrison Ford (Star Wars trilogy, Blade Runner)
2) Edward James Olmos (Blade Runner, Battlestar Galactica)
3) Sigourney Weaver (Alien trilogy, Galaxy Quest, Ghostbusters)
4) Michael Biehn (Terminator, Aliens, The Abyss)
5) William Shatner (A whole bunch of Star Trek... Okay, doesn't exactly meet my criteria but I think he should be here. I'm sure there's a sci fi parody he's in I can remember!)
6) Arnold Schwarzenegger: (Terminator trilogy, Predator)

Tough one but for me Michael Biehn's biggest films seem to all be from the sci fi genre. Same may go for Sigourney Weaver - will always be Ellen Ripley and Dana Barrett first and foremost to me.

Thoughts?
Schwarzenegger and Sigourney Weaver tie. Not only Terminator and Predator, but Total Recall, The Running Man, and other stuff that I can't think of off the top of my head. And Weaver, what a stellar sci-fi resume.

Bruce Willis and Gary Oldman for Fifth Element honourable mentions.
