scifi

I've never into the fiction book culture and always gravitate to the more practical non-fiction books on the top 100 lists, but I am looking for some good book ideas and wanting to try one out, but don't want to be disappointed. I also don't know what to look for. I think my aversion had to do...

Hey there! I am a huge fan of Ender's Game, Tron, Mass Effect, etc. and I would really like my room to reflect this side of me! I would really appreciate the help with creative ideas and possibly finding good sci-fi decorations! I want it to look realistic rather than cheesy, so no little...

I can't remember what series this was from. The monster in the episode was living fat (not the adipose from Doctor Who). It moved through whatever city it was through the plumbing system and attacked people while in the shower. Please help me identify the series and the episode title.

What is a good sci-fi movie to watch that is currently on Netflix? I've recently seen Daybreakers/Aeon Flux and they were decent movies. Outside of Netflix I've seen Gattaca and Minority Report which were awesome in my opinion.

The hero in his automated space ship is being chased by the bad guy in his. The chase continues for 50,000 years. The story was written several decades ago. Ever heard of it?

I'm trying to remember the same of a sci-fi movie that I saw years ago. It may have been set in the future or some kind of virtual reality. A mother and her child were in a desert, and were abducted by a group of savages who lived underground (I think they were human). There was all sorts of...

About a decade ago I came across a sci-fi a novel that the cover said was about an alien race that announces they want to speak to the President of the United States and blows up a city to show their are serious. The problem is the US along with the USSR no longer exist--only China does. And...

Trying to find somewhere to sell an i,Robot limited run (3000 made) bust, initially sold at $119. eBay seems like it would be too narrow a scope and would likely end up selling vastly under what I believe it is worth. Can anyone recommend any forums/sites that I might be able to sell this on?

You know, the kind with biological corruption and primitive looking super structures? I'm not asking for this exactly, but I want a game I can play that is similar to the Metroid Prime series.

@ adam- i saw that and didnt understand it

Loud whizzing came from my pocket and got louder the longer I let it go on. Cell phones always annoyed me, because in case you heard it the first time, phone manufacturers want to make sure everyone else hears it the second time. “You should turn off your cell phone,” Sharon said from across...

I'm trying to figure out the name of this movie, and I know the answer is probably pretty obvious. I just can't seem to think of it. This is a more recent film, probably from the last 15 years. There is a scene with a group of aliens or possibly evil creatures. They look like humans except...

someone didnt have money for the operation and a tv station paid for the operation on condition that it could show it live with no anesthetic... does anyone remember this story?

I'm looking for a good sci-fi map maker. Something that can let me draft up space stations, planet colonies, ship decks and other blueprints or stuff. Does anyone know of any good (and maybe cheap or free) software that can help me out? I've tried CC3 but, thats more like medieval style map...

I am looking for a few key space ships from different science-fiction mediums. I have a kit of the original Enterprise already. I am looking for places that have: Serenity from Firefly and Serenity Normandy from Mass Effect (Alliance) Moya from Farscape Thanks for any help!

A plane crashes in the middle of the desert and throughout the movie the people are trying to figure out ways of getting out of the desert and they start fighting with each other. At the end we find out that they were all dead and didn't realize it yet. No..

Why?

Out of the following sci-fi space fleets, which in your opinion, would come out on top in a total free for all between all fleets? For the sake of argument, all fleets start out with in equal strength by numbers. No superweapons allowed (i.e. death star), fleets only. Starfleet (Star Trek)...

I'm going to do NaNoWriMo this year (long ways away, I know), and am doing some planning on the novel. I have some ideas from about five years ago that I put on the back burner due to other novels. It's about some bat-like, shape-shifting, telepathing creatures that spend most of their time in...
