I'm old school science fiction in both movies and literature. I'm a devout Trekkie and one who would have loved to be on the Enterprise as it sought out new civilizations. If it is going to be weird though, I want fun and intelligent weird as you find in the original Star Wars trilogy.Partly a place to review the books, TV shows and films dealing with Science Fiction. Also a place do comment on the writers of such, and maybe film producers and directors.
I love old sci-fi just as the original "War of the Worlds" and "The Day the Earth Stood Still."
And though I thought Spielberg could have done a better job of editing, I enjoyed "Close Encounters of the Third Kind" and "Starman" has become a true classic. "Armageddon" as a dark comedy classic also could have used a lot better editing but still deserves a place in my sci-fi movie collection. As do the Matrix movies which have so much real feel it bothers us in a way.
I want sci-fi that has just enough possibility of reality to make us think, wonder, want to know more, etc.
