Entertainment Weekly magazine has a website which this week is counting down the TOP 25 SCI-FI. Amusement forced me to check it out., nausea was my reward. For those of you not needing their collective stomachs pumped, here are some of the lowlights:<\/font><\/p>\n

# 25 \u2013 V The Television Series and following Sucktastic Made for Vomit movies.
\n<\/font><\/p>\n

Are you kidding me? How in the name of God does this fall on ANY best of Anything list?<\/font><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

# 23 \u2013 Doctor Who (1963 to Present)<\/font><\/p>\n

Explain how David Tennent and what the hell\u2019s his name from 1876 who played him with a scarf can be compared in any way whatsoever and\/or all lumped together as if it is all one product, WHICH IT ISN\u2019T.<\/font><\/p>\n

<\/font><\/o:p> # 17 \u2013 Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind<\/font><\/p>\n

I AM GONNA PUKE ON MY DVD OF Silent Running right now, excuse me.<\/font><\/p>\n

<\/font><\/o:p> # 6 \u2013 Brazil<\/st1:place><\/st1:country-region><\/font><\/p>\n

<\/font><\/o:p> # 1 \u2013 The Matrix<\/font><\/p>\n

What the hell are you sniffing?<\/font><\/p>\n

<\/font><\/o:p><\/p>\n

Here is just a small part of what was overlooked.<\/font><\/p>\n

In the past 25 years<\/font><\/p>\n

The Star Wars Saga<\/font><\/p>\n

My god, is there a more seminal series that brought Sci Fi to the mainstream? Oh, and while we are at it, how about<\/font><\/p>\n

Raiders of the Lost Ark<\/st1:place><\/st1:state>, or<\/font><\/p>\n

ALF, or<\/font><\/p>\n

Lost in Space, or<\/font><\/p>\n

Look you get the idea, so here\u2019s the plan. For the next few weeks, email us with YOUR Pick for the Best of the Past 25 Years, and I promise not to make too much fun of you when I publish them in early February. You can use the contact link on the page or email me directly at <\/font>thedome@scifico.org<\/font><\/a>.<\/font> <\/font><\/o:p><\/p>\n

This is Dome saying, \u201cI\u2019m sick of Stan Lee\u201d (don\u2019t know why I said that. I think it may have been bad clams)<\/font><\/p>\n
