Are star wars films good science fiction a reasonable argument?

Nope, In my opinion they are at best violence-oriented fairy tales with a hokey Science Fiction backdrop. Some good production and technical device, the camouflaged High speed tank ( the Germans had a similar project in War II called the Lynx) do not hide the fact it is very poor from a sci-fi standpoint. Star Trek has its positive Warp factors but is dragged down by the design requirements of a series program- which it originally was. If you want first-cabin television science fiction the suspense must be internally maintained, and Twilight Zone is a good starting point.

Old Japanese sci fi movies?
Everything under the Rising Sun! There was a virtual galaxy of Monster movies most with uprated dinosaurs or creatures like that- Godzilla for example. there were, less starred, more or less straight science-fiction of sci-tech films, not on a caliber with Star Trek but more uprated or exaggerated present technology such as Atragon about a Multi-Role submarine. there were the usual doom and horror types of films given a science-fiction uptake. Monster films include Mothra, Gamera ( I know its Arabic for Camera) Ghidrah, Rodan and so on. straight- non-horror science fiction films were rare from the House of the Rising Sun.
A list of Science fiction horror films of the 1960s?
It depends on how you define Horror- there are monster films mainly from Japan in this time period with weird dinosaur types- such as Gidrah the Three-headed monster, and so on, but also more plausible things dealing with suspended animation run amuck- the Head, the Brain that wouldn"t die ( same story) and so on. these are science fiction films with a ground-level SHOCK> and far different than today"s occult Bat-s---.
