The Death of Science Fiction...

Maybe because Twilight and Being Human are getting more airtime than Terminator (cancelled due to writers' strike) and -- I can't even think of another TV Sciffy prog ... It's current fashion. Come the next Sci Fi blockbuster, the tide will change.

Only us old chicks read Dick.

But the bookstores aren't dominated by those and other excellent sf writers, Connavar, it's the StarWars & StarTrek franchises that are most visible. I belong to an audiobook club and there are dozens and dozens and dozens of StarWars and StarTrek novels (and lots of fantasy crap too... ie,vampires and LOTR ripoffs), but damned if I'm able to get one of Neal's books in audio form. Banks and Morgan are available and...

It's a tall order. I won't even try to give a rounded out answer. Still, heroic fantasy is quite important to us. It essentially covers half of our society's mythology. The Christ Story (including all of its predecessors such as Judaism) is one of the founding myths. The hero's quest (Greek and Nordic mythology) represents the other half. (I know, I know... there are many side currents that I've not mentioned....

Re: What do we call this decade? It looks like us "geezers" have decided. The oughts it is. i will start referring to it as that and I am sure that it will catch on.

Yeah, Dave, I think you nailed what I'm getting at better than I could. Next Generation gave the Klingons an ethnicity, I think, very much in line with the needs of the late eighties/ nineties. I'd like to see them half-return to a cold war take, more modern North Korea rather than medieval Japan. Get rid of all that camp armour and stick 'em in grey authoritarian uniforms. Something new, anyhow. The equivalent of what Ledger...

I think you are all 9 years too late to the party, I've seen "noughties" for 10 years now and have been using it myself for 7 or 8 years. I'm not sure about the next decade though. The "Teenies" does not seem right. I wonder why they didn't start naming decades until the Roaring 1920s. In the UK we had the Georgian, Victorian and Edwardian periods, but the US didn't have that excuse. And...

"There was me, that is Alex, and my three droogs, that is Pete, Georgie, and Dim, and we sat in the Korova Milkbar trying to make up our rassoodocks what to do with the evening."
First two that came to mind anyway.

Graphic novel :) I am a student studying graphic novels within media and would appreciate it if you would take some time out to answer the questions below to help further my reseach on the audiences of Graphic novels 1.

Is Science Fiction a form of 'Geekery.' In accordance to popular belief i believe reading sci-fi to be somewhat 'geeky.' Yet my dad does not think so. So i thought it would open a highly rancourous debate(as it did in my household) in that: Do you beleive Science Fiction to be 'Geeky'?

Best Fantasy Cities I'd say Camaar from The Lies of Locke Lamora . Love the canals, the different districts, the elderglass towers, and just the general Venetian vibe.
Which cities do you like?

Oooo! Goody - a place to share!
I've read all of the SoT books, and I enjoyed them a lot until about book 6, when to my mind I was reading propaganda mostly - so I skipped the bits where Richard goes on a bit to get to the next plot point.
Before I read some of the posts on here I also thought he was a bit perverted - lots of rape scenes in his books - and it would appear that others ...

Ok fellow board members .
Here we have two options.
Real live i would dearly love a claymore. Me being a 7ft 300pound laddie it wuold fit me like a glove. NOt too m any big fellows around to use that weapon effectively.
In the Fantasy world the sword of the Rivan King (eddings' belgariad). Truly massive sword that's weight is carried by the orb of aldur. Burns a blue flame when excited.
