ParanoidObsessive 03/26/23 3:21:18 PM #59:	Krazy_Kirby posted... star trek has stuff like mind meld, which is definitely not sci-fi Telepathy is absolutely sci-fi, especially in the 60s when psychic abilities were treated more like a pseudoscience. Psychic powers crop up in Dune in the same context. The only reason the telepathy and telekinesis of the Force isn't really sci-fi as well is context - it's treated more like New Age magic and spiritualism rather than science. The line between sci-fi and fantasy isn't the setting, the technology, or the powers people have. It's the way you're telling the story and what your intentions are. Sci-fi tends to tell intellectual stories that explore the implications of the universe being presented, often as a parallel to real world issues. Fantasy tends to tell emotional stories that echo the mythic tales of the past. Sci-fi wants to make you think. Fantasy wants to make you feel. --- "Wall of Text'D!" --- oldskoolplayr76 "POwned again." --- blight family <cite>ParanoidObsessive posted [p:972426624] in Favorite B...

Part of the problem for him was that he was supposed to die in the crash in the first movie. They kept him alive because test audiences loved him, but they never knew what to do with him afterwards.
