Someone's already mentioned this (and it's a TV show..) but Captain Power and the Soldiers of the future was pretty neat.
.
I own t-shirts (actually of the 1986 Transformers movie) of both those things.

Captain Power is being rebooted BTW. It's called Phoenix Rising.

Oh god...Eva Haberman in 1997. Zev is something my brain will never forget. Xev however, was horrible (the replacement for when Zev died and Eva left the show).

one of the great iconic moments was at the end of part 1 BSG - Resurrection Ship when Admiral Cain and Commander Adama where plotting the assassination of the other. Was great TV

I think Episode I, II, and III trump all of these by a wide margin.

Write ins

Star Trek Enterprise
Any of the next Generation Movies with maybe the exception of First contact. But those movies make the prequels look like Oscar nominated films.

As I side note there are lots of things that I really liked about the Star Wars prequels.

No love for Kirk vs. the Gorn or Kirk vs. Spock in TOS? Pssh as far as I'm concerned this poll is now invalid.

Serious answer: Star Trek-style transporters would have by far the greatest impact on society of any of those technologies.

Technically speaking, the replicator and Transporter are the same technologies. If you have something that can freely convert matter to energy to matter again according to a set pattern, you have it all. The Transporter is like that machine in the Prestige. Theoretically, the person that goes in "dies", and a new person comes out at the other end without knowing the difference.

My favorite Sci Fi tracks:

Blade Runner Blues - Vangelis



Highlander Suite / Theme - Michael Kamen



Who Wants to Live Forever - Queen (composed by Freddie Mercury and Brian May for Highlander when they watched the rough cut of these scene)



Unicron Medley - Vince DiCola
Transformers 80's Metal Theme by LION

I've always been a big fan of the Imperial March, it completely fits the Empire



But that Queen soundtrack completely kicks a##

You forgot Galaxy Quest. I would have placed that 2nd to Space Balls.

... Those Family Guy episodes were insipid and pretty much revolved around animating the Star Wars trilogy with Family Guy characters with no other added value. There was simply nothing funny or original about them.

Gotta be Spaceballs for me. Pretty famous flick for what it is. Great cast as well.

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?
