Star Wars was exactly what I was thinking about when I drew the Sci-Fi/Fantasy parallels. There are also dystopian or surrealistic fantasies such as Welle's The Trial and Has' The Hourglass Sanatorium (the latter being one of my all time favourites) which I'm uncertain whether to include in the list or not at present. |

Can you justify its inclusion? I would argue that star wars has a lot of the tropes of sci-fi in spite of being fantasy. |

Mainly because I despise genre definition and in particular genre rigidity, but also I have a complex where I end up talking myself into including something based on it being close to or sharing certain themes or elements of something else that could be classed as such... I'm really terrible for doing this. |

I can't believe you guys are actually contemplating whether Star Wars should be on a sci-fi list. Last edited by Demdike@Cult Labs; 3rd November 2014 at 06:13 PM. |

A lot there I haven't seen. The Black Hole still remains a er... black hole in my viewing. I'm disappointed to see that Doctor Who: The Movie is absent from your list, Dem. |
