What a class act.

Love his Final Architecture series too if anybody needed a recommendation

Wut?

It's a shame, but this is probably the best response any of the 2023 Hugo winners can give at this point. Still, I can only imagine the emotional roller coaster of winning a Hugo and then watching this entire train wreck unfold.

Just imagine how “worthy” if Sandler weren’t in it.

“Adam Sandler’s sci-fi drama” is not a sentence I ever expected to see

scytale, w Dune 2 Reviews Starting to Come Out and ... Yikes

Interesting review and first somewhat negative one I’ve seen, although I’ve been avoiding reviews even though I read the book. I trust in Denis and expect a good movie at the minimum. I personally don’t even rank Dune Part One in my top 3 or 4 of his films. As a big Dune fan though, I expect to enjoy the film AND expect that they will never be able cram everything from the book, so I’m expecting some things to be more shallow or left out entirely. I’m seeing it this weekend so cross fingers!

So, is it good?

Can these people just write in English? Its impossible to tell what their actually trying to say

neidu2, w ‘Foundation’ Shakeup: David S. Goyer Stepping Back From Duties Amid Budget Clash

Uhm, didn’t I read a few weeks ago that Foundation had been canceled?

no, what you read was there was a pause in production, and the cast had been sent home from eastern europe, at the time the reporting was it was due to "location issues", but it seems now that the studio and the show runner had major budget issues, and it looks like the studio won the fight, but it's most likely going to cost the series in vision and quality, which is paramount for this particular project.

roofuskit,

Production was paused because they were blowing the budget. Not yet cancelled.

ruh roh, this does NOT bode well for one of my favorite scifi shows on tv, whenever an originator leaves or changes direct control, the production suffers. every time.

thesmokingman, w 10 Sci-Fi Movies That Didn't Bother With the 'Science' Part

Not all SF is hard SF and not all hard SF goes deep into the basis of its hardness. Sturgeon describes SF as asking “what if” which, at its core, does not require an untenable scientific basis.

slappy, w 10 Sci-Fi Movies That Didn't Bother With the 'Science' Part

Hackers was an incredibly fun movie, that had a ton of techno-babble. Sharknado isn’t even a horror movie due to how dumb it is. Still had an impact.

Oversimplified works in every genre.

bramkaandorp, w 10 Sci-Fi Movies That Didn't Bother With the 'Science' Part

Have to argue against What the bleep do we know.

It is neither science fiction, nor a movie (in the fiction sense). It is a documentary, and as for the science fiction, it isn’t present, and not in the same way that it isn’t present in some of the other movies.

It isn’t there because it was not the intention to make a science fiction movie.

What the bleep do we know was meant as non fiction. You were meant to take it seriously, as usable information.

None of it is actually real, though, and it is filled with pseudoscience. But at its core, it is meant to be watched just like a any other documentary, not as a movie.

I’m gonna put Leia flying through the vacuum of space Mary Poppins style at the top of my list.

Mine is “somehow Palpatine returned” and nullified the entire message of sacrifice and redemption from the original trilogy

I actually don't mind that one particular scene much, and that comes from someone who really loathed The Last Jedi overall. Using the Force to propel oneself in zero gravity isn't bad, and the vacuum of space is not nearly as deadly in reality as science fiction often portrays it.

However, the one thing that did stick out as a glaring problem to me was the fact that the Raddus was fleeing the First Order's fleet at that moment, so its engines must have been firing at full thrust. So how is Leia and all that debris floating around motionless relative to the ship? Indeed, even if the ship wasn't actively thrusting, all that stuff was moving away from the Raddus pretty vigorously after the bridge blew open. Why did it stop? Is space actually an ocean?

The first line of the Disney trilogy was "This will begin to make things right." On its own, no biggie. But when you consider the utter dumpster fire of a trilogy that followed, which deliberately went out of its way to despoil the heroes of the previous Star Wars movies and destroy everything that they had worked to accomplish, incredibly frustrating. It's meta-frustrating. You can think of that line right before any of the other individually-frustrating scenes you may think of and it makes it even worse.
