That makes sense, and i realized I'm a dumbass, since I included The Running Man on my list , but for some reason wasn't thinking of ACO as sci-fi.

But The Running Man includes some obvious "sci-fi" elements, hence your initial connection with it as sci-fi. Children of Men has no visual sci-fi elements. No laser blasters, no aliens, no advanced technology. Nothing. It's the premise that is purely science fiction.

Laser Blasters

I know some people freak out about that.

People who have a very superficial notion of science fiction. And people who obviously miss the very first frame of the film...Lucas isn't ashamed to set it up as a fairy tale...

Ok back to voting....seems a little light on votes this time around.

And I thought the director list would be tough to get interest in.
