Do you like Science fiction?

[CoolCatMar1]

[Siri137]

I do. However, I'm very fussy about it, and think that most science-fiction just isn't very good. In my view it has to be convincing, it has to be a story that I can actually believe in. For example, the movie 'Gravity' with Sandra Bullock and George Clooney was good, because it was based upon reality, and the reality is that the amount of space junk up there in low earth orbit is really getting out of hand and we need to do something about it before a piece of it sets off a cascade of colliding junk that knocks out all our satellites.

YESSS!!! Everything from Star Wars to the Alien/Predator franchises, to Cloverfield, to Godzilla. To TV shows like one I recently watched called Bodies, to Black Mirror, The 100, Dark, Altered Carbon, His Dark Materials… I could go on. There’s endless ideas and possibilities when it comes to science fiction. It’s just a really fun genre.

[Siri137]

Yessssssss! Black Mirror was very good, but also very disturbing, and that's because as I was watching each episode I kept thinking that the world we live in now isn't all that far off from what's being portrayed.

[abc3643]

Of course. It has helped significantly form who I am because of "Star Trek" in the 1960s and 1970s and a few other important science fiction movies such as "2001: A Space Odyssey", "Planet of the Apes" and sequels, and "Colossus: The Forbin Project", and "Silent Running".

[exitseven]

Yes, I watched all the cheesy SciFi movies from the old days. I wish the SciFi channel would have real sci Fi again instead of slasher movies. I am a big Star Trek fan.

I like them Big.

[abc3643]

Have you seen the 1993 HBO remake? It's fun and campy with a twist ending.

[BLP11520]

That poster is over a toilet in a restaurant I serve

[abc3643]

@BLP11520 It's actually a rather bad movie with terrible laughable special effects, but the theme was good and the poster is classic, albeit was not at all indicative of what happened in the movie.

[abc3643]

Fun commercial.

[Siri137]

The woman in the image looks much taller than 50 ft. I'd guess she's around 110 to 120 ft tall.

[exitseven]

@Siri137 If you saw the movie , the woman in poster looks nothing like her. In the movie she is blonde and she is about 50 feet tall.

[Part2603]

I don't think the scale is right in the poster. She looks like she'd be 150-200 ft tall. Average height is about 5 ft, so a 50 ft tall woman would only be about ten times taller. 50 ft tall would be about Transformer size, not King Kong sized.

[WillowofFeathers]

Yes I like science-fiction. That and fantasy are my favourite genres because I love how the author or the director builds up an entire world with its own rules and stories. But science-fiction is such a difficult genre to write in because the story can easily have inconsistencies and go against its own logic and in that case I lose interest in the story

[Miristheiss]

Sure. I have the kind I like and others that isn't my style.

I love the original Star Wars, Mars Attacks, The Martian, Interstellar, Guardians of the Galaxy, Passengers, Avatar, Alien, Aliens, The 100, Manifest, Tomorrowland. The Matrix.

If it is written well, science fiction rocks.

[ChiTown33]

Yes very much. I really like post apocalyptic sci-fi., cyberpunk.

I like Star Trek as a kid. But I just can't swallow Gene Roddenberry's hippie vision anymore. I still like star trek. But man will NEVER evolve past the motivation of greed. We are capable of amazing accomplishments. But in many ways we've never left the caves.

[jennifer_bloom]

I liked science fiction movies when I was younger but now I mainly watch action and an occasional Romantic comedy. I prefer fantasy fiction over science fiction such as stories about ancient Egypt or stories about mythological creatures.

[Benjiman19]

Like as in movies or shows? Love it. Huge Star Wars and Star Trek fan. When I was younger I used to wish for an escape pod full of clone troopers to crash into my backyard. Of course, it never happened but that was my wish.

[Al_Musafir]

Some of it, sure. But as much as I like reading books, I prefer sci-fi movies over their books.

[wiltingrosepetal]

When it coincides with other genres I like, sure. Scifi dystopians are always entertaining. But in general, not my favourite

[PessicaJeter]

It depends on the piece of media, but generally yes.

[QuietRunner]

@PessicaJeter Have you read A Fire Upon the Deep

[NathanDavis]

it is fine in some movies, sure...

not the biggest fan of fiction out there though...

[Joshydavid25]

Yeah the Science fiction genre somehow grasps the human experience really well..

[Still-alive]

Definitely. from star trek to blade runner.

Currently watching all the mad max movies as we speak!

[TomMarks]

Yes, films and books. Too many to do a listing.

[RavVid]

There is some good stuff but some have a lot of futuristic devices and I don't like that. Just one premise of time travel etc etc and no more.

[KostasKouvalis]

Some. I'm not into alien or space shit, but I will watch futuristic and dystopian films.

[KostasKouvalis]

Okay, sometimes I'll watch monster/horror science fiction like "A Quiet Place" and "Old"

[Siri137]

'A Quiet Place' was really good.

[AngryCarl2]

Back in the day, yes. I don't see much I like now. I used to enjoy reading William Gibson.

[TallAnon]

Kinda, I feel like they very often use the same cliches, which I dislike.

[elaphe]

Yes, I grew up on reruns of "Star "Trek."

[WhitneySnow]

Yeah, but I prefer fantasy

[DizzyDesii]

Films yes
