Incoming scoops are reporting that Disney wants to restructure the struggling Star Wars franchise around its original hero, Luke Skywalker. It is fair to say that things are pretty tumultuous at Lucasfilm these days. Along with every other branch of the vast Walt Disney Company (except Pixar, of course), the studio has been struggling to adapt to the modern media environment. The Disney-produced sequel trilogy of films made a huge amount of money and introduced new characters like Rey (Daisy Ridley) and Kylo Ren (Adam Driver), but was hampered by increasingly bloated budgets and fan backlash as the series went on.

Star Trek is one of the biggest and oldest sci-fi franchise stalwarts. By the time George Lucas brought Star Wars back in 1999 with The Phantom Menace, Star Trek was already nine movies deep, on what felt like its third reboot, and was in the middle of its fourth major TV series. Since then, the TV side of Trek has continued to diversify and grow into the 21st century, while Trek’s film output has been much smaller than it was back in the day.

Star Wars has always been known for its weird names, from pod-racer Ebe E. Endecott to the part-time singer, part-time bounty hunter Sy Snootles. However, none of these names are anywhere near as mind-blowing as the full name for Jedi Master Yoda. As to be expected from original creator George...

In terms of how we view science fiction movies today, the 1980s was easily the most influential and formative decade. But, interestingly enough, by 1983 after the release of Return of the Jedi, the massive influence of the Star Wars franchise on blockbuster sci-fi movies had morphed into a new phenomenon: the anti-Star Wars sci-fi epic. 1984’s Dune and 1986’s Aliens are two great examples of this miniature trend, a moment where great directors like David Lynch and James Cameron attempted to wrest the storytelling themes and aesthetics of space-based sci-fi cinema away from the Star Wars mold. And sandwiched smack-dab in the middle of this moment was a cult flick that bombed in 1985, but went on to become a classic.

In March 2002, the Larsen B Ice Shelf collapsed catastrophically, breaking up an area about one-sixth the size of Tasmania. In a paper published today in Scientific Reports, we used nearly 1,000 film photographs of Antarctica from the 1960s to reconstruct exactly what five glaciers were like decades before the Larsen B Ice Shelf collapsed. This allowed us to precisely calculate their contribution to sea-level rise.

There’s an argument to be made that perfection is unattainable, or even something abstract. It definitely feels that way when it comes to entertainment, because, even when it comes to all-time favorites, there are usually nitpicks or tiny things wrong, at the very least. Perfection might be a good thing to aim for, because the closer one gets to it, the better… but achieving it quite literally is exceedingly difficult, if not impossible.

10 Sci-Fi Movies That Were Almost Perfect

One year before the James Bond franchise made a major comeback with Pierce Brosnan’s GoldenEye, James Cameron decided to turn Arnold Schwarzenegger into a secret agent in True Lies. Just two years after Terminator 2: Judgment Day, the idea of selling Arnold to audiences as a kind of tongue-in-cheek 007 figure was risky as hell. In the days before the first Tom Cruise Mission: Impossible, and on the eve of Bond’s comeback in the Brosnan-era, an espionage action movie of this type wasn’t necessarily a slam-dunk. But, what made True Lies click was that it wasn’t a straight-up Bond knock-off. Instead — riffing off of a French film called La Totale! — Cameron took an over-the-top spy movie and turned it, partially, into a rom-com.
