With JJ Abrams's 'Star Trek' already making waves and McG's 'Terminator Salvation' peeking up over the horizon, Time Out thought it would be a perfect time to select 50 essential sci-fi films, some of them classics, some not so classic, but all need to be seen..

"Essential" is subjective    laughing    They are putting films like Blade Runner on another list. 

Quote
Writers' Note: In order to restrict ourselves to 50 films, we opted to dismiss speculative films which deal with dystopian futures: as a result, great films like 'Blade Runner', 'Fahrenheit 451' and 'Hardware' will not be found in this list. We'll get around to those at a later date...

As for howard the duck.. who knows how that made it. Its definitely not a movie I would consider when making this list.
