I love sci-fi books and television shows. I haven't met one customer who likes sci-fi/fantasy.
BTW: does anyone listen to Art Bell/George Noory Coast to Coast AM on the radio? I love it.

I was always a fan of classic Sci-Fi books and short stories. (Graham Doar, Phillip K. Dick, etc.etc.).. never a big fan of Sci-Fi Television shows though since they were more oooh'ing and aaahh'ing over special effects and futuristic vehicles/trinkets rather than character studies or compelling story.
West coast readers usually have some good Sci-Fi under the belt, but not as a specific preference.. just as one of the many types of works interesting to read. Customers and dancers alike always seem to have some good fiction- Sci-Fi or otherwise to gab about in the clubs.
It doesn't matter if you're somebody in this world, it rather matters you mean the whole world to somebody.
Guilty as charged.
I don't have the time much anymore, but if there is a Sci-Fi or fantasy author, I have read it.
One of my personal waste of time stories is that I confess to reading the ENTIRE L.Ron Hubbard Mission Earth a 10 volume decology.
MISSION EARTH, an epic told entirely and uniquely by the aliens that already walk among us. Earth is to be invaded and a Royal combat engineer must cross 22 light years to secretly infiltrate the planet. He is also crossing a scheme to use the resources of Earth's most powerful figure to overthrow the confederacy.
With a convicted murderess who trains giant cat-like animals, a doctor who creates human biological freaks, a madman who controls Voltar's secret police, and clandestine Earth base in Turkey, a bizarre stage is set and narrated by an alien killer assigned to sabotage the mission and Earth - the planet that doesn't exist.
This includes the part where the incompetent alien hero Soltan Gris undergoes an operation after being tortured by a dominatrix.(Tiny) The alien doctors in an effort to get even with him, give him like a 20 inch penis. (I am not kidding here.)
Anyway, 10 volumes and it took me a year to read it. I still have them above my garage. Anyone looking for a deal?





I'm definitely a sci-fi glutton, with my favorite authors being Frank Herbert and Orson Scott Card. I agree that the majority of sci-fi on the big or little screen places way too much emphasis on the visual and much too little emphasis on science/storyline .



I listen to Art Bell sometimes...I find it very entertaining.
sci-fi, fantasy, etc... very cool... missed marcon (marcon.org) this year though![]()

As for the topic, I'm a total sci-fi nut myself.
Yes, I am, but I consider myself a "rung above" the average "geek" :o(actually, that's just me trying to not own to being . . . a sci-fi geek
)
Anyway now that I have confessed, I can tell you my all time fave series is The Lexx (anyone know it?) and I also love Dr.Who, which has just recently begun shooting for a new series by BBC Wales some 10 years after the series ended!!!!! Fave films include "Stargate" (note I said the film and not the series), "Dune" (original film and the series later), "Barbarella" (my angel sotume is based on Pygar), and I am really looking forward to the new "Chronicles of Roddick" (I get that I look Vin Diesel all the time, mainly by the Chinese, just because I am bald and western).
Sitri, I would read that decology JUST for the bit where he gets the 20 inch cock!!! What the hell does he do with it once he gets it? ???
I don't listen to Art Bell because I live in HK, but I do listen to his former radio partner Whitley Strieber on Unknown Country.com radio. It is awesome.

I LOVE Lexx! I'm really bummed that they took it off the air. It was funny and sexy and just all around awesome. Have you ever seen Red Dwarf, ChadW? British Sci-Fi comedy.
Dr. Who was good, too. Once again, that British dry sense of humor was great!
I don't know that I would say I'm a true Sci-Fi Geek...but I do pronounce "Star Trek" properly, know the characters, and appreciate the genre. A DANCER who knew sci-fi, would end up with multiple lap dances from me, however. Schaaaaa-WING.
And Dr. Who? Okay...in the 8th grade, I went to a Dr. Who convention....
Yeah - I watched a little of Red Dwarf, but did not get into it as much as other BBc shows like Blakes 7 and Hitchhikers Guide to the galaxy (which they are redoing right now along with Dr.Who!!). I did love the cat that evolved into that cool black guy though!

If you enjoy TV sci-fi with weird humor, check out Tripping the Rift !!! If you can't get it in HK there is an episode available online at
Naturally, my favorite episode is 'Miss Galaxy 5000', with guest star Spamela Anderslut !

I am along with all you boring and uninteresting people who lead boring and uninteresting lives with questions we all know the answer to...
I, too, am predictable and a sci fi nut... everything always have been.. love to watch the oldies too just because the special effects are so corny...
But again, I am an uninteresting "stripper" who leads a predictable life and probably will succum to the regularities of statistics because I do not make a million dollars a year, have the perfect body and ask stupid questions of my fellow co-horts in the business...
I love X files...

I love science fiction, but haven't read as much as I used to recently. The problem with a lot of it is that the kind of guys who write scifi are often very good writers with brilliant imaginations, but limited experience with people. A lot of even the best novels will have stilted love scenes, etc.
William Gibson, who started the whole "Cyberpunk" genre, is very good.
Philip K. Dick, who wrote Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep, made into the excellent movie Bladerunner, is a writer who is beginning to get the attention he deserves.
I also like to read some trashy military sci-fi stuff now and then, much to my girlfriend's amusement. Imagine my embarassment when she read from a page at random and asked me who in hell "Captain Silence" was.
There is a really good book I got from my dad, a bit older, The Inferno--written by Larry Niven and Jerry Pournelle--which is an adaptation of Dante. It was so good I am reading the real thing, which is even better, kind of like 14th century science fiction, actually.
The Forever War by Joe Haldeman is great.
The movies usually lose me about halfway through. Stargate (#1)was fantastic, until the slave revolt, with a bunch of teenage boys with broomsticks fighting the super-advanced badguys. There was one scene in which one of the poor adolescents gets wasted, which they drew it out in typical Hollywood style, complete with a slow motion sequence of his running away from the intergalactic villain.
That's when I started cheering for the bad guys, along with my date.
