Den som inte riktigt förstod vad jag fann så roligt med föregående notis kan förresten ta en titt på ”Science fiction och sci-fi” på Vetsaga.

First of all, the hideous neologism ”sci-fi”–which sounds like crickets fucking–is at the core of this seeming malaise. What is called ”sci-fi” is not, repeat NOT, science fiction. It is special effects movie/television produced by and for imbeciles. Giant lizards, moronic space battles with spaceships acting as if they were Spads and Fokkers dogfighting in atmosphere, recycled fairy tales, and illiterate appeals to paranoia. They bear as much relation to science fiction of quality (whether film or tv or books or magazines) as Dachau did to a health spa.
