Ana 15 Posted April 2, 2007 *stares at sig* You like those books too? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chris/Tauntaun13 0 Posted April 2, 2007 Yup. Best fantasy since Tolkien in my opinion. Can't wait for Dance with Dragons. Write George, write! Faster! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mara 29 Posted April 2, 2007 Meh. I don't technically think of SW as sci-fi. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ana 15 Posted April 2, 2007 What would you call SW, then, if not sci-fi? OMG I know! I met him last year and he signed my copy of A Feast for Crows. Got my picture with him too... wonder whatever happened to that.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mara 29 Posted April 3, 2007 (edited) Oh, an action/adventure space opera. In a very broad sense it could be Sci-Fi, but not in the very sense of the meaning of the word. SW contains Sci-Fi elements, but I don't think it's completely Sci-Fi. Edited April 3, 2007 by Mara Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chris/Tauntaun13 0 Posted April 3, 2007 If it weren't for all these conventions he would have finished the series by now :p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chris/Tauntaun13 0 Posted April 4, 2007 Maybe we should open a thread for ASoIaF... but has anyone else here read it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ender 8 Posted April 6, 2007 It's not that bad. Serenity was a really ewokin' cool movie. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chickenman 9 Posted April 17, 2007 Oh, an action/adventure space opera. In a very broad sense it could be Sci-Fi, but not in the very sense of the meaning of the word. SW contains Sci-Fi elements, but I don't think it's completely Sci-Fi. But all space operas are sci-fi. They're very soft sci-fi. More fi than sci. As opposed to hard sci-fi, which is a lot of both. And I've heard Serenity is great. Still gotta catch it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mara 29 Posted April 17, 2007 That's why I said broad sci-fi... not specific sci-fi, lol.... And Serenity is freakin' awesome. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stephen 0 Posted May 17, 2007 Serenity was good, but no where near as influential as Star Wars. Maybe the SFX magazine decided to give someone else besides Star Wars an award... :lol: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
