KoiceReloaded: Lol...... Searching is not science fiction. It uses everyday technology the way it is normally used. We track people with social media on out laptops and phones. There is nothing new, speculative, fictional or reactionary about the technology used in the film. Here are some definions of science fiction 1) Science fiction (often shortened to Sci-Fi or SF) is a genre of speculative fiction, typically dealing with imaginative concepts such as advanced science and technology, spaceflight, time travel, and extraterrestrial life. Science fiction often explores the potential consequences of scientific and other innovations, and has been called a "literature of ideas".[1][2] 2) a form of fiction that draws imaginatively on scientific knowledge and speculation in its plot, setting, theme, etc. 3)fiction of a highly imaginative or fantastic kind, typically involving some actual or projected scientific phenomenon 2 Likes 1 Share |

American Beauty 8/10 Kevin Spacey was outstanding. Such an enormously talented actor. Too bad his vast legacy got ruined - he got outed as a sexual predator. Keep it in your pants, folks. Karma is a vindictively b**ch with a long memory. Just ask Bill Crosby. 1 Like |

Unfriended dark web....6/10 The first one was better though |

Bad Times At The El Royale 5/10 Terrible structure and completely felt like a half-baked Tarantino knockoff. |

KoiceReloaded: aside the bad ratings......which I think Venom doesn't deserve...it's grossing it's grossed $377m worldwide..... |

SAMBHOSS: Make una no mind the yeye critics. The film is a fun anti-hero kind of movie. Tom Hardy killed it as both Eddie and the symbiote, Venom. He steals every scene, and you will remember those scenes long after you leave the movie theater. 1 Like |

The first purge 7/10 It follows. 6/10 I think I will go back to watching the 80's and 90's horror. The kind modern horror movie these people dey make dey tire me. No difference between them and other normal genres. Smh |

KoiceReloaded: i remember this movie when i was watching classics, when spacey was spacey not now when em don rub emself shiitt |
Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by Beorn: 8:39pm On Oct 16, 2018 |
KoiceReloaded: But with the standard definition of Sci-fi, he made good points. I was hoping to see you prove his points wrong or not entirely true. |
Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by Beorn: 8:43pm On Oct 16, 2018 |
SAMBHOSS: You shouldn't be surprised, superhero movies with a touch from MCU hardly ever flops at the box office. Add to the fact that Venom was highly anticipated, you'll understand why it was never going to flop despite the low ratings. 1 Like |

Ned Kelly 7.5/10 when hatred and slander follow an innocent man. they hunted him till he become the most wanted outlaw, but all he could say was "such is life". |

Just re-watch sicario 1 and mennnnn that shit was awesome.. .....completely trilled once again 8/10 |

Beorn: Oh, it's super easy to poke holes in his assertions using his number 3 definition as my foothold, but I sensed that he just wanted to argue for argument sake, and I wasn't in the mood. I have a busy day tomorrow, so I'll try to make this as brief as possible First, what is science fiction? It's not something you can give a straightforward definition to - it has several layers to it like multiple major (and minor) subgenres and themes. There is hard science fiction, there is science fiction fantasy, and speculative fiction. You can google all these, I'm not making it up. Now, let's take them one after the other: - Hard Science fiction: This is a science that is sound and well researched, with emphasis on scientific law accuracy. It can be futuristic like Interstellar, or contemporary like Children of Men. - Science Fiction Fantasy: A very popular genre that blends science fiction with fantasy. It contains elements which violates the scientific laws of the real word. Notable examples of science fiction fantasy movies are the Star Wars franchise, and The Matrix trilogy. - Speculative fiction: It's pretty much like science fantasy, but on crack. It encompasses several genres like dystopia, superhero, horror, apocalyptic, supernatural fiction, etc. Notable movies are Deadpool and The Exorcist From the above analysis, it's obvious that science fiction is a very broad genre, and most certainly cannot be quantified by mere three completely-devoid-of-context definitions picked from the internet (no offense, Jeromeblack). To define sci-fi, you have to first understand the cogs and torques and pistons that drive the engine. 3 Likes |
Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by Beorn: 10:38pm On Oct 16, 2018 |
SAMBHOSS: I don't think so. Deadpool and Suicide Squad are anti-hero movies. |
Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by Beorn: 10:40pm On Oct 16, 2018 |
KoiceReloaded: Okay. So, which of major subgenres of Sci-fi can Searching be categorized under? |
Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by Nobody: 10:47pm On Oct 16, 2018 |
Beorn: Contemporary, under HARD Sci-fi. The science applied is factual (can be proven). |
Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by Beorn: 10:53pm On Oct 16, 2018 |
KoiceReloaded: All right. Will research more on it (Sci-fi subgenres are way too many, I just found out), but so far, the categorization checks out. |
