People don't like science fiction, for some reason. I don't understand, what makes seeing a dragon for a millionth time more fun than space?

>>84611603
Not that guy but zombie stories have to be either sci-fi or fantasy and there's no evidence for the latter, but all that stuff in the CDC in the first season points towards sci-fi. It's a very misleading description though, and a terrible show to boot.

Dark Mater was interesting me until OP blink drive, and the time loop cliche episode.

Also the androids voice and face was cute at first but now it's annoying. And that teenage hacker gril looks like full blown fetal alcohol syndrome. In fact the more it goes on the more hackneyed it seems to be getting.

at least, until season 3

>zombie stories have to be either sci-fi or fantasy
How about FICTION????
You know, like Kafka's Verwandlung???? Would you call that Fantasy or Sci-Fi too??????
>>
>>84614004
it is an argument

the reason why there is no "next star wars" IS because of the production budget. that's why the good sci fi is dead, and what we get is minimalistic sci fi bullshit because of the low budget
>>
>>84617677
>How about FICTION????
As opposed to "factual science fiction" or "factual fantasy"? Retard.

>Would you call that Fantasy or Sci-Fi too??????
Yes, it's fantasy.
>>
>>84611277

Honestly most tv sci fi has always been kind of shitty, low budget and campy.

They did the whole srs business in BSG and it became reality TV tier drama of who hates who.
>>
>>84617757
That's stupi. By denying yourself the option of not applying either Fantasy or Fiction to every book that is not a textbook, you're getting yourself needlessly into a lot of trouble and are forced to dilute these terms so much that they lose all meaning. How do you know Die Verwandlung is not initiated by technology???? It might be Sci-Fi after all!!!!
>>
does The Leftovers count as sci-fi ?
>>
>>84617837
>By denying yourself the option of not applying either Fantasy or Fiction to every book that is not a textbook
I never said that.

>How do you know Die Verwandlung is not initiated by technology????
Because such a concept wasn't popular at the time, much less left unsaid.
>>
>>84617954
There is nothing in the book that hints at a supernatural cause either. Maybe Der Prozess is fantasy as well, since it is set in a different universe???? What about Lolita? The people aren't real, but there is no advanced technology, so it also is fantasy????

Nope, you're just a retard that's not worth the time to explain anything to, since it won't even lodge in your brain.

Kafka is shit by the way, why are you so obsessed with her?

yes
