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
@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
sci-horror
@Xaverius he had plenty of alien specieis
space ships
unknowable technology
^^ autism
that sort of thing
its science fiction fantasy
That doesn't mean it's scifi however
Indian myths have flying cities, is it scifi? <:smugon:512048583806025739>
that's illustrating a complete imability to recognize nuance, luci
