Sci-fi’s reach is reflected in the wide-ranging panel of experts we conscripted to rank the greatest sci-fi films ever made. Even if they’re taking place on other planets, truly great sci-fi speaks to the issues concerning the planet we actually live on – they just happen to be communicated through fantastical beasts and alien technology.
The best sci-fi aren’t just about mythology and multiverses. The truth, however, is that the audience for science fiction was never so limited. It is, perhaps, the dominant genre in all of pop-culture. Now, nerds run the entertainment industry, and sci-fi isn’t just popular. It’s hard to imagine now, given the geek insurrection of the last two decades.
Not that long ago, in a galaxy not terribly far away, science fiction was thought of as a niche interest – nerdery of the highest order.
