Well to each his own, but I think T1 and Aliens are classic sci-fi movies, and I'm not alone in thinking so. I haven't seen Demon with a Glass Hand, so I can't comment...

I agree that Alien is the best for horror, but the second one is just such an entertaining action movie. Also, I find the over-the-top characters funny; particularly Hudson. I find Starship Troopers, on the other-hand, to be ridiculously over-the-top and cheesy. C'est la vie...
