The Terminator franchise was predicting AI and robots. Star Wars predicted robots. What are some other examples?

What do you like? What do you own? What would you like to own? What are some reasons for the answers on this thread?

What do you think of it? What might be the future of it? Are your feelings hostile, supportive, or is it somewhere in-between?

In order to find worlds that are truly like Earth, ones that don't have to be "made like Earth", we need fast ships. In fact, we need some that approach the speed of light. Do you think that is possible in the near future? Is it ever a good probability for even the later future?

You know, once they change, they can't go back. I mean, now it seems like the thing to do, but we could regret it later. It would be like destroying a national park.

Venus is a place that cannot be inhabited on the surface. Now, the clouds are a different story. Anyway, in one really far fetched scenario is bringing in stuff from other planets to make it like Earth.

Actually, there are pitfalls to all writing that sci-fi writers need to be aware of. One is using "I" too much. Another is writing crappy intros, stuff like that. What is something that you think is the worst pitfall in writing or in sci-fi writing, in general?

There is a big subliminal referencing to martial arts in Star Wars. In fact, one-to-one combat is often preferable to guns. Well, what do you feel about it? Do you do karate etc. now or in the past?

I think it's years off. I'd say I won't live to see it and I will be 100 in 2076. Anyway, I could be wrong. What's your view?

He seems to be on some sort of life support. What is going on? Myself, I'm guessing he is way past the probability of death.

What were some things getting in the way? What things were getting in the way of it even getting off ground zero? Myself, I saw the film as something not done before, so perhaps Hollywood was hesitant on the reaction.

Who could create a story based on the theme of outer space? Who could create a whole universe like this, as we see with Star Trek or Star Wars. Myself, I'd like to do that, but it's not one of my natural talents.

I have taken physics, but not astronomy. Anyway, astronomy seems like a cool course. In fact, my brother took it at university and loved it, but said it was very hard.

Yes, no doubt they are in the US. In fact, it wouldn't surprise me if the cheapest experience is $40 for one person. Anyway, some try to get around this by sneaking in drinks and snacks, but I wouldn't do that cause of religious beliefs and ethical concerns.

I like the originals with Spock and Bones, all that. Anyway, I haven't gotten into the new ones. Are they bad? Mad Magazine made fun of them once, but I don't want to hate on stuff I haven't experienced.
