Comment Star Wars is not Sci Fi (Score 1) 109
One thing I really don't like is people calling Star Wars a Sci Fi movie. It's not. Being set mainly in outer space doesn't make it Sci Fi.
It's really an Action/Fantasy/Spritual movie, And a VERY good one too! But there's nothing scientific about it.
I knew someone who had never seen it but assumed it was like Star Trek. Star Trek is very technical and appeals to the 'nerdy' type of person a lot. But Star Wars is not. It appeals more to the spiritual side of one's personality. Since it's about someone's (Darth Vader's) internal struggle between good and evil.
If you look at it through the eyes of a 'Trekkie' you probably won't get anything out of it. But if you look at it as someone's internal struggle between good and evil, you might appreciate it more.
