Your favorite sci-fi movie of 2011?
My favorite so far is Source Code (I didn’t see all the films).  I also liked  Limitless, The Adjustment Bureau (difficult to say if it’s exactly sci-fi, but it’s a Philip K. Dick adaptation) and the family film Real Steel.   Sci-fi films of 2011 I didn’t see yet are: Super 8, The Thing, Rise of the Planet of the Apes, Attack the Block, Paul, Cow-Boy and Aliens, Apollo...
