Great thread guys. My 2 cents: 1. The Derelict (Prometheus) 2. Slave 1 (Star Wars) 3. Imperial Shuttle (Star Wars) 4. Tie Fighter (Star Wars) 5. Space Shuttle (NASA) 6. Bird of Prey (Star Trek IV) 7. Enterprise E (Star Trek TNG) 9. Transporter (Contact) 10. Spock's Ship (Star Trek Reboot) 11. Icarus II (Sunshine) Sorry, I couldn't shorten it to ten.

Wow! Nobody's mentioned the X-wings from Star Wars?!! Personal favorite BTW. I mean if you could have a ship or in this case a Starfighter is perfect, it's small enough to fit in most places ( garage or hangar) can travel faster than light and it has weapons!! Now where do a get dang R2 unit?

Ah the SR1 Normandy @ Flexer. I'm more partial to the SR2 Normandy II. If they ever get around to do a Mass Effect movie one can only hope it looks as good as Prometheus or has a great director like Sir Scott.

Yes indeed Ncc 1701 thanks, I mean the X- Wing's shape is Iconic and on another note as your moniker implies to me the best will always and forever be the Enterprise from the motion picture.

Well maybe not millions actually, I wasn't thinking about the math when I said that.

No love for the "Corsair Star Cruiser" flown by John-Boy? Maybe I'm reading too much into it....but to me its in Giger territory for "suggestiveness".... [img]http://i165.photobucket.com/albums/u44/lespaul_photos/battlebeyond1.jpg[/img] And guess who worked on this movie...

I don't know if this ship has been mentioned, but I like it. The movie, Spacehunter, is well below mediocre. I saw the movie recently and cringed at Molly Ringwald's incesant whining. [img]http://teleport-city.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2001/02/spacehunter04.jpg[/img]
