Extracted from Darren Carver-Balsiger's Letterboxd List:

"An accompaniment to the Letterboxd Top 250, which contains just a few science fiction films.

No shorts, no TV series or TV movies, no YouTube videos, no filmed stage productions, no reissues/re-edits, no commentary track versions, no compilations of TV show episodes, no behind-the-scenes documentaries, nor anything else that isn't really a full film. All entries must be at least 40 minutes in length.

To ensure this list isn't filled with films with very few ratings, this only includes films rated by at least 1,000 users and with at least 100 likes".
