Ex Machina, Predestination, Source Code and Looper are all good sci-fi movies with a fairly original premise.

Less well known recent sci-fi movies I liked are Coherence, The Signal, Timecrimes, Blindness, and Europa Report.

Moon 44 is a cool little outer space science fiction flick made by Roland Emmerich, who went on to make Independence Day.

There are two on Netflix right now I would recommend. Primer and Transfer.

Both movies are best watched if you know nothing about them before you watch them. I will tell you, they are both quiet movies. Not a lot of action. Primer will require some thought to follow along.

Ghost in the Shell, 2001: A Space Odyssey, and maybe Blade Runner.

As well as all five versions of Blade Runner that were included on the 5-disc Ultimate Collectors Edition?

IDK, SF has always been so hit and miss, mainly miss. Not to mention that many films with a SF setting -- for example set in the future or in some alternate reality -- are actually some other genre, such as horror.

If you watch a shit tonne of SF films then I can understand that you'd get the impression that the genre is dying. But there was a preponderance of crap SF in the 60s, 70, 80s...

If you haven't seen Ex Machina then be sure to put that on your list; it's great SF and great movie making. Otherwise here's a couple older films that are not great SF but just plain fun to watch: Ice Pirates and Flash Gordon.

Saw Ex Machina, I liked that one. Was a decent flick for sure. Have not seen Ice Pirates. Wrote that down. Have seen my main man Flash Gordon though.

OK, ignoring the bigger names, which I assume you've seen already, here are some suggestions:
