Bootlog

Saw it! Finally and what? Moon. Well if you like rotten body for half of the experience then it is worth it. Anyway what strikes most is that I finally saw a light at the end of full-on-action tunnel. Sci-fi so far used to be about aliens, wars, defeating, attacking, surviving and everything else (forget Solaris, better read all his books) but people(well few odd movies, I bet you can find them, in a way, are actually confirming it). If this movie is supposed to be a fresh start for sci-fi cinema then I think it is the only way forward. What I am on about? Well, space, machines, and technology is not that important to make it a hero. Actual life in future/space is getting more down to earth, more fiction then science. Yes, that way, correct. I mean proper fiction, where everything has a reason, no forced ending with nuke-it-all happy end. Science is in a background: harvesters, genetics, spaceships etc. They are not fighting each other to rule the galactic nor go to another planet to discover dinosaurs.

Well, it may sound like boring sci-fi drama, or maybe it is the new genre, after a sci-fi office drama we could have a Gone with the Wind remake about him being miner on the moon and she being a mermaid on a posh spaceship.
