I liked the "You're Fired" moment. Murphy had clearly stated the fourth secret objective in his programming which stated that he could not harm any OCP employees, and the CEO got the idea straight away. Cue the "Thank you" before opening fire on the poor git.

The “terminator wrong dog name” was a code my family used. If we ever used a certain dead animals name… we knew it was code for “Help”

7:14 A subtle, overlooked detail. When Marty engaged to race to catch the lightning feed at 88 mph, the DeLorean STALED. It took him a few moments to get it to fire up. Implication: Doc's calculations were *barely* off and w/o that delay from from the stall, Marty would have contacted too early and still be stuck. Doc Brown is an incredible genius, but even he can be off by 15-20 seconds. Thank goodness the universe is more forgiving!

The way Dutch adapts to fighting the Predator is one reason why The Predator is my favorite movie in the franchise

Wait, is the original your favourite bc "The Predator" ist the latest one with the autistic kid, not the Schwarzenegger movie which called simply "Predator". The "the" makes a huge difference, just like with both Suicide Squad movies.

The name switching trick is one of several reasons why I love Terminator 2

David giving the mothership a “cold” in Independence Day, or using satellite signals to figure out what the aliens were up to. Gotta love the ingenuity of video engineers.

I am quite sure in the movie Jurassic Park the little girl does not intentionally use the reflection to trick the raptor. she tries to hide in that cabinet and is unable to close the door because it’s stuck. fortunately for her the raptor is fooled and slams into her reflection on the table instead of finding her at the corner, which gives her time to escape

Great job on the video Rebecca. So many iconic scenes but my personal favorite is Luke and Han dressed up in Stormtrooper costumes, A new hope turned me into the movie buff that I am today. May the force be with you all.

Yeah, Ripley gets to take all the credit she wants. Lady managed to survive so very much xenomorphic shenanigans on will and wits alone. And Mark Watney is one of my all-time fiction heroes.

It's not just killing. Directive 4 prohibited Robocop from even arresting/containing them.

Using the lightning bolt in BTTF should’ve been higher on the list. It literally saved Marty from having to live in the past until the world caught up, like Doc did in BTTF 3.

The reflection in Jurassic Park looks like luck to me.

The Terminator 2 scene will always be my fav. So so simple and clever.

Rogue One is definitely a necessary prequel film to the original trilogy.

Sci fi is my favorite movie genre, so this video is perfect for me! Who else is?

Aliens is a masterpiece

Star Trek II, Spock analyzing Khan’s ship to ship combat tactics and realizing, for all his genius and brilliance in combat, he thinks “two dimensionally”. Cue Kirk ordering a full stop and dropping the Enterprise down like a submarine. Far enough that Khan’s limited sensors can’t detect anything as they fly right over. Then coming back up behind Khan and thoroughly kicking his ass in such an awesome moment movie theaters full of Trekkers cheered their asses off! (At least according to my dad, I was like 2 years old when it came out.)

Would have loved to see included the scene of Andy Lau plugging in his digital life copy to the supercomputer just before he died in order to have his virtual self finish the task of rebooting the Shanghai Internet Centre, in Wandering Earth 2, beautiful movie

I think in Minority Report when John Anderton pulled off his masterplan at the end was pure genius.

Idk man, covering yourself with dirt to avoid heat detection might look smart but even as a kid I knew instantly it wouldn't work irl

Slight problem with the "Predator" one. The Mythbusters proved a thin layer of mud like that wouldn't work to fool heat cameras as the mud would very quickly become body temperature.

Very nice videos Rebeca 😊Robocop,hero makes sacrifice,using reflector to fool raptor,Ripley fights Allien Queen with power loader,Neo takes red pill,Terminator calls dog wrong name,very smart,Han and Luke use stormtrooper suits as disguises,Ripley opens airlock,Dutch applies mud to his body,very nice. Galen subtly sabotages Death Star laser. Very nice. Deserving number 1. Great video😀

"It is not possible" "No, it's necessary" Amazing line

Also there is no conceivable way in a closed time-like loop where a destroyed version of you conveys memory engrams back to a undestroyed previous version of you in that time-like loop. But it does hearken to a time travel idea of mine. If asked, if you could travel back in time and change anything what would it be? My answer is at the beginning of time I would distribute invisible recording drones to collect all knowledge in the universe until the end of time. And then at the end of time compile all of that information into a single database. Then repeat. Cycle two. I access all of that information of all technology created in all of the universe and become more powerful. Cycle three. This is where things get crazy, impregnate the development of all technology in every species across the whole universe with tiny little advancements insights and knowledge that they shouldn't know yet. Accelerate the development of technology in all corners of the universe separately. Then recompile. Cycle four. Undo all changes. Let the universe's timeline resume its natural course. And use that technology to become a god.

4:31 Ripley only had to do that because she made the foolish decision to torch the egg pods while rescuing Newt. Doing so made the queen chase her. She didn't have to do that because the place was being nuked anyway. So, one of the smartest decisions was only because of one of the dumbest.

Smart decisions are the ones that can help us in real life. About rogue one, i still remember the day when i heard about the squad in a new hope.

Id flip number 1 and 2 but still solid list

If there's a "Top N Most Badass Sci-Fi Movie Heroes" video, it's no contest. Ellen Ripley 1st, Spock a distant 2nd, and whoever's 3rd is a distant 3rd.

Lex's escape in jurassic park was not planned just a lucky accident. Tim's was planned even if it was a spur of the moment plan.

That Looper sacrefice could backfire badly. if Timetravel would create a new timeline. he would just kill himself with no effect on the old Bruce Willis.

11:14 Give credit to the fellas from The Wizard of Oz for that one.

How about Godzilla giving the female MUTO the kiss of death knowing his atomic blast didn’t work prior?

The Predator movie is the odd one out as using the mud would not have camouflaged Dutch as depicted.

Dune, the "cyanide" pill scene.

Also in back to the future part 3 Marty wearing an oven door for a bulletproof vest and tricks Buford into thinking he killed him

The correct number one is in “Aliens,” barely into the story - when the marines realize what they’ve wandered into, they plan to just live and nuke the place. Of course it doesn’t work out, but at least they had the right idea!

The Fifth Element where the robber stands in the hallway with his special photo hat blocking the security camera to make the hallway look empty

This has been tested. Trade secret, yes you will heat up the mud. No, that does not mean 2.7K of optics will see you. No I don't understand the science, but there are youtube videos that will break your mind. Oddly enough those silver thermal insulation blankets do EXACTLY what you predicted, heat up fast and show up. Remember folks, if being hunted by people with optics, slathering yourself with even a thin layer of mud does some weird stuff.

I have no idea how he put that off before T-1000 find out he fell for that trap.

Idk where this is stated but Dutch outsmarting the predator like that basically made him famous in there society which may have had a part on him being spared by a female predator as stated in Dutches logs in predator hunting grounds Bit of a side note what do the predators think of ripely is it stated anywhere or do they not even know she existed

Utilizing amplified hearing aid in A Quite Place should make this list. What can be smarter than that?

Why is Star Wars in a video about science-fiction movies?

The Martian was as good a surviving movie as Cast Away.

Sabotaging the Death Star wasn't a "smart decision", it was just the reason the movie was made... As if he knew that an X-wing would be able to send a bomb down the exhaust port. Ridiculous post-hoc rationality that simple people think is really clever.

Unfortunately the concept that you can commit suicide in your past and therefore delete a version of you that's traveled back to that past assumes that causality is a thing. causality is not a thing. That moment there where you see him blink out of existence would have converted all of the energy of his mass into a nuclear blast because energy cannot be destroyed. But also no.

The ONE Jet Li says

Aliens is the best Sci-fi/Horror movie of all time. The Aliens first attack you through oral rape, then the Aliens come out through your stomach killing you.

Rogue One is the best movie outside the Original Trilogy. It is the only worthy one. Everything else is low quality or unnecessary.

Only problem is that it is too long.

Dislike for censoring the word 'bitch', which is stupid as its not just a slang term, its the name for a female dog. Stop being so damn sensitive.
