I'm just gonna come here and say the problem with sci fi right now is because people think they want loving sci fi and not sci fantasy, but they actually want sci fantasy, which can and will eschew with realism or science when it's cooler. This is a better model, and why I :rolleyes: when people bitch about realism in scifi movies.

Like, Dune is considered science fiction somehow, but show me where the science is. It's still the greatest sci fi book ever written though? Weird huh, how fantasy elements are often better than the way things really are.

There are people who absolutely need their sci fi grounded in rational ideas and the fictional technology existing as somewhat believable future-tech, but frankly I'd rather just Star-Wars or Dune it up.
