Reply To: Do you reach an age where you go off of sci fi?
Coming back to the original question of the thread. I believe, no matter how good the movies are, I never experienced science fiction movies again like in my formative years. I was watching a lot of trash there. Still it had an impact. So, I must admit, something got lost over the years. But it also was enriched by a certain intellectual interest in the allegories, metaphores and other meta layers in science fiction. I might no longer be able to take it just as it is, but still find it interesting and entertaining, like, as I mentioned before, now I can watch DARK STAR more as kind of comedy.
