I feel the same about Star Wars.

I've tried to be even vaguely interested in it, but every time I make a move and flip it on, wet cement-weight boredom sets in almost immediately.
But I would also say that - even if some say it's a kid's movie - Spielberg's 'Close Encounters Of The Third Kind' is another classic sci-fi epic.
And yeah - it would have been a more all-round/suitable for any age movie if he hadn't shown us the aliens at all.

Along with 'Jaws' - definitely Richard Dreyfuss' best work ever.

Star Trek is cringey as hell as well.

My dad was 19 years old when this film came out in 1968, yet it hasn't aged and is as enjoyable as ever 58 years later. I hope there's a 60th anniversary release in cinemas in two years time...I can't think of a better film to watch on the big screen, accompanied by IMAX sound surround.

The stargate scene in particular blew me away after a spliff.
