I'm very curious about what you consider to be "the best scifi, the really good stuff". Could you name some examples? Very few decent SF scripts go into production, even fewer with such amazing talent on board (Villeneuve, Johannsson, Adams) etc. Arrival is not just one of the best SF films this year, it's one of the best films this year. Villeneuve and Johannsson weren't handed Bladerunner 2 for no good reason :)

I'd draw a line between the good scifi and the good theatre movies. There is some great scifi out there that isn't for general consumption in theatres. I'd call Akira (1988) one of the greats, but not the sort of thing I would see in a theater with a mixed group of friends. On the other hand, I didn;t like the Matrix movies much but would have to agree that were fun in theatres. Some people found them great, but they haven't aged well imho. I saw the original Jurassic Park probably 10 times in theatres. That was a great scifi theatre movie. If it came out today I would recommend it to my friends.
