The Look, The Feel… of Science Fiction

It’s Thursday, and we all know what that means: first, free pedicure day at The Toe Hut (formerly Starbucks — 8,000 locations near you!) and second, it’s the day my science fiction film column runs at AMCtv.com. This week I have a proposition for what it is that science fiction film fans are really looking for when they watch their favorite genre’s movies… and if you think it’s “a good story, rigorously grounded in science,” well, see, then you’ll probably be upset with what I think it is. Naturally, you should head on over and find out. And once you think I’m completely wrong, you should unleash your rebuttal over there. Go on, you know you want to.
