Discussion thread for the latest installment of Pierce Brown’s Red Rising series....

What do cell phones look like in the year 2144?...

Based on my calculations we should have at least 10,000 subscribers. It seems like the subscriber count only shows for whatever particular instance you are on, but adding together the subscriber count of the major instances exceeds 10,000....

When I first started this show I found it to be a really awkward mix of comedy and seriousness. It had some jokes thrown it at the most inopportune times as some kind of comic relief from a really serious situation. Perhaps the first half of the first season was actually a bit rough or maybe the show just grew on me, but by...

Hello /c/sciencefiction lemmies. I’ve put together an image of some of the most discussed shows from July 2023....

I’ve put together a collage of some books from last months What are you Reading? post. It’s mostly random, but the more discussion something gets the more it stands out to me. Going forward I’m going to make a new post every month to talk about what people are reading....

I am looking for someone to help the Science Fiction community flourish. To potentially help refine the community description and our getting started post. Even if you don’t want to moderate I would accept any ideas people have....

Here’s a short video of it popping onto his head....

People only remember (if they remember this show) how incredibly schlocky and terrible this show became. Granted, it had more seasons being a trainwreck than being watchable....

One of the first movies to leverage the idea of radiation- it came out the same year the Godzilla debuted in Japan, and two years before Godzilla came to the US theaters....

The animated BiliBili adaptation of The Dark Forest (Book 2 of TBP) was a bit strange, but I really like the ending theme. The mood is perfect for what should have been a great adaptation.

I had no idea what I was getting into when I started this book, but it turned out to be exactly what I was looking for. In general I like hard scifi that goes as in-depth as possible about the fictional science. I think this book kind of took that concept to the next level. There are still characters in this book, but I think it...

I got this book because it seemed like a cool edition of The Foundation Trilogy. I later discovered that it glows in the dark when I turned the lights off to go to sleep.

The reading from the YouTube channel Fear The Qu is great. I know this book gets a lot of criticism, and ended up wildly changed from what Dixon wanted to do on his own, but I really enjoy the final production. The vignettes of life through the ages, the nature documentary style, and even the creeping fringe scifi element of...

If you are old enought to remember this show, you now make noises when you sit down. As a ten year old, this was the coolest truck on TV, the trailer would split open from the top and there was a helicopter hidden inside.

I’ve been eyeballing this thing for years and finally decided it was time. Sold a bunch of old anime stuff I wasn’t into anymore and got something awesome....
