which incidentally isnt a movie

and thus is pretty hard to compare

lol

no shit, sherlock

so why are you comparing them

??

but even Kubrick's file was totally different from the novel

i am not talking about the medium

i am talking about the genre

And yet it was still respecting the original genre, as you say

But there are very few movies like that

dune was classic sci fi

Star trek gets kinda close, but it's padded with action for obvious reasons

dune was science fiction fantasy

the original star trek, the twighlight zone vs Star Wars (original) and Lord of the Rings

two seperate genres

twighlight zone isnt hard sci fi in the least

Ok now you've lost me <:mananimal:583796112729702412>

regardless of medium

it entertained supernatural phenomena

of course i did

you are young and confused

what is unclear?

Twilight zone and lotr are different things altogether. You're currently comparing bananas to diesel engines

yes, but the word 'genre' is a general classified

Twilight zone is, mostly, sci fi

john carter of mars is science fiction fantasy

lovecraft is science fiction fantasy

and the twighlight zone had far more in common with the root of any of Arthur C CLarke's novels than it did Star Wars

Lovecraft is not science fiction fantasy

@Xaverius lovecraft has a lot of magic in his stories

cause it examined thehuman condition in another context

it wasn't just escapist

Lovecraft is horror

if you think otherwise you havn read it

was meant to make you think

horror is a theme

@Lucienne d'Anwyl I'm doubting the science fiction part, not the fantasy part

Horror fantasy, if not horror

science fiction fantasy is the genre

yeah, lovecraft is also different
