How to use sci-fi in a sentence?

  1. Doug Stephen:

    When we think of robots, we tend to think of all of the big advancements coming out of Southeast Asia, and I don’t think it’s because they’re better at robots than we are -- I think they like robots more than we do and so they’re not afraid of them, i think the one thing that’s held back American robotics research for a long time is that in the West, we have this sci-fi culture of pretty scary robots, and so we have all of these horror stories of robots gone mad, and they don’t have that culture in Southeast Asia.

  2. Sharon Flavill:

    He's only ever going to understand it through our ability to describe it, and through news stories. The horror, so many people have said it's like sitting watching a sci-fi film, isn't it? You couldn't write the pandemic as a film.

  3. Margaret Atwood:

    Remember the first one? Atwood said referring to Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope. Two guys fly a plane in the middle of something and blow that up? The only difference is, in‘Star Wars,’ they get away, right after 9/11, they hired a bunch of Hollywood screenwriters to tell them how the story might go next. Sci-fi writers are very good at this stuff, anticipating future events. They don’t all come true, but there are interesting ‘what if’ scenarios.

  4. Rick Carter:

    You can have all of this fancy stuff and a sci-fi movie is whatever it wants to be. Everyone is trying to outgun each other. This isn't about that. This is about the force.

  5. Barbara Ehrenreich:

    In sci-fi convention, life-forms that hadn't developed space travel were mere prehistory -- horse-shoe crabs of the cosmic scene -- and something of the humiliation of being stuck on a provincial planet in a galactic backwater has stayed with me ever since.
