What are your thoughts on In Time 2011?

So I watched this movie last night and I loved it. Is it the best movie I’ve ever seen? No. Is the dialogue sometimes cheesy? Most definitely. However, I loved the story because it’s a bit rare nowadays. You don’t see many movies explicitly about class war anymore. Something else that seems increasingly rare these days is having a protagonist who’s just ‘some guy’, not a cia agent, not an fbi guy, not a merc, just an average man or woman struggling in a hostile world. And honestly I miss that. I miss the days of Bruce Willis playing the every-man action hero. And I miss Sci-Fi that makes a statement beyond spectacle and forgettable storylines.

I wish Dogmeat had a loyalty mission.

I was just thinking how awesome it would be if he had a gritty backstory like Killer the Rottweiler from Half Baked.

Serious question: Is this the funniest moment in television history?

So I’m a really big fan of space ghettos. Are there any good books that utilize this concept?

Anything about alien societies with seedy underbellies- crime, gambling, drugs. Basically extraterrestrial cyberpunk.

You guys got any recommendations for non-Jamaican rocksteady bands/songs similar to The Slackers and Hepcat?

Are Sci-fi movies/tv leaning too hard on individualism?

The thing I’ve always loved about science fiction is that it asks big questions about society, and the nature of reality. It seems like there’s this trend in modern sci-fi (last 15 years or so) where the big questions take the back burner, and plots mainly focus on petty personal issues. For example, you might see a movie about first contact with an alien race, but instead, most of the focus will be on some guys marriage, or like an individual’s journey of self fulfillment. This is fine in moderation, and, in fact, sci-fi would be lesser without these aspects, but to make these things the main focus I think kind of takes away the wonder and mystique of it all.

How awesome would it have been if the M-490 Blackstorm (black hole gun) actually caused spaghettification.

I know technically it doesn’t generate *real* black holes, but still… woulda been a sick visual.
