Serenity vs Star Wars

In what is sure to anger fans of George Lucas's trilogy/septilogy, the BBC is reporting that Serenity beat out Star Wars in a fan poll of the best sci fi movie of all time. Serenity was the movie "finale" of the TV show Firefly which has many fans here at Mod-Blog. It was a good movie, but not nearly as ground-breaking or influential as Star Wars or the number 3 film on the list, Bladrunner. It will be interesting to see if the movie is even remembered 10 years from now. If so, it will be proof that it is the writing, not the the special effects, which make a sci film great.
