Sleeper I can excuse, Its Woody Allen.
They Live is a great one, and THX 1138 has its merits. The updated version isn't too much different.
Soylent Green.. yeah.
I have to realize that I grew up with a number of these films...and that you're younger than me.
GITS is awesome, the series even more so. I love Shirow Masamune's Utopia/Distopia films. The good ones worry about humanity, what it means to be human, and why we are here. Plus it has robot girls.
