Yeah, so you were disappointed, but that doesn't really make the movie as awful as some say.


I personally didn't expect the Tetrahedron part near the end, but I do agree the very ending was a letdown. "The love of my life is dead... Oh hey, another one, yay !"


Wait until the rest of the clones pop up. The mom will be having hard time explaining to the child the amount of daddies she has xD

Just because you have an opinion doesn't mean you are necessarily right.

Fantasy all the way. For me there are 2 kinds of Sci-Fi. The one that's a dystopian future on earth and the one that's about space travel. I've come to loath the latter one because my suspension of disbelief only goes so far


What about movies such as The Time Machine or The Iron Giant? Were would you put them?

They are a lot closer to fantasy for me than actual science fiction. I'm fine with futuristic settings if they play down the science parts.

Hmmm, we have a similar view but in different paths. I tend to see fantasy a lot closer to sci-fi.

sci-fi! and not just because its a way more intelligent genre.

Fantasy any day, whether it's movies or games or tv shows. (excluding my beloved Doctor Who)

Ok, sometimes I prefer sci -fi, but that's when I compare something like Avatar to Maleficent or something. It's a 1 v 1 kinda thingy.

Movies: Sci-Fi

Games: Equal

This reminds me that Cyberpunk 2077 is happening. Hopefully that gets a proper reveal at E3 2015 and a 2016 release.

Can't pick one over the other. Sci-fi is fantasy grounded in some form of reality. And fantasy is well.... if you can imagine it it is possible.

I do love sci-fi games like Mass Effect, and obviously the Star Wars movies are timeless classics. I'd have to say that I prefer fantasy games a lot more than sci-fi ones though. Movies? I'd have to go with sci-fi, mostly because there hasn't actually been all that many good fantasy movies.

Unfortunately, you could say the same about sci-fi movies. We're lacking of those nowadays :(
