The World\'s Best Space Sci-Fi Ever
Just found this today. It\'s the result of an online poll by New Scientist Space. Here is the global top 10 (heh, Pun will like it):
Quote:Worldwide Top 10Complete list with results commented: http://www.newscientistspace.com/article/dn8211 Firefly? Serenity? FarScape????... Gosh... the world has gone crazy. As you\'ll see we can conclude two things: a) Firefly stuff (all Whedon\'s stuff by extension) is the best scifi stuff EVER released; b) Firefly/Serenity fans (Whedon\'s by extension) are just the most active poll clickers (and forum posters, and blog reviewers... etc, etc) EVER. Anyway, Browncoats have absolutely pwnt Trekkies. So, beware, they\'re the new plague! BTW, I thought it\'d be funny to have a TTR top over the top list. So vote for the very best scifi thing from the top 10 if you feel like (just one option allowed). |

I can\'t choose D: All the ones I have read/watched on there kick so much ass.
I\'d vote for Ender\'s Game, Hitchikers, and EP5 simultaneously if I could, though. |

RE: The World\'s Best Space Sci-Fi Ever
After some thinking I\'ve finally voted for the Empire in the poll. Call it a (de)generational issue.
But my vote would have gone to the Asimov\'s Foundation series if they would have been in the top 10. Shame they seem to be too old and boring for all this Whedon new breed... |

BTW, about Star Trek, it\'s not only absent in the global top 10, but it\'s also pretty low in the top TV list:
Quote:Top 8 TV Shows Dunno. This reminds me about Superman. It suddenly goes from a cool cultural icon to an old and better-to-avoid cheesy and lame thing. |

RE: The World\'s Best Space Sci-Fi Ever
And how could it be \"The Empire Strikes Back\" and not \"Star Wars\".
Would be the same as picking one eposide/film of \"Star Trek\". Besides, those \"modern\" series are what the kids have seen at what gets up on their \"fantastic effects and computer graphics\" scale... For me, Star Wars (IV to VI), are the best. Simply because they are what introduced me to the genre and I really like it. |
