    “The best two genres, science fiction and horror.”
    Throwing shade at fantasy. As you should.

      I just read a quote by Banks that sums up why I love sci-fi (and I think this fits a lot of horror too): "Science fiction is the literature of ideas, it's to do with philosophy, psychology, sociology...anything with an 'ology', really. It's the appeal of ideas being central, rather than characters or relationships.".

    From the cinema I would add 'Quatermass' (all 3), and the 1978 Invasion of the Body Snatchers. Games, I'd add 'Silent Hill', and Resident Evil 2.

    Hey. A couple of things. Mary Shelley also (probably) wrote the fires post-apocalyptic novel. Second, you can argue that ALIEN is actually a Slasher movie.

    "people's favorite science fiction film and their favorite horror film are often the same film" - missed opportunity for a pun by ending the sentence with "...are often the same Thing" ;)

    Hello again, I just watched Top 10 Books of 2022 again and thought I would remind you of that idea I had last year . Maybe do a Pantheon of your favorites. Like "Dying Inside" for example. I know that "Bookpilled" which I started watching before you has nothing but high praise for Solaris and I still watch him because he really enjoys the older SF book. So, in conclusion, keep this in mind.

    I'm late to the party, but I'm a bit surprised that there was no mention of Dr. Who. I would have thought that, at it's best, it can tick both boxes, and surely has influenced generations by now.

    Alien's impact on both cinema and video games is so huge. It really is one of the most definitive moments in sci-fi. Maybe seconded only too Star Wars.

    Sci-fi and Horror, a marriage made in the bowels of Hell? Dante's Inferno, written around 1300 CE, is a cosmological speculation about what was then the known universe, when European knowledge came from religion rather than science. This version of Hell is the medieval equivalent of an alien world with its own civilization and history, and even its own map.

      @@stobiusshrodenI believe the Bas-Lag novels were done as a read-along on the channel at the beginning of the year. I’ve been hoping for a review since then. ‘Perdido’ is quite simply the best thing I’ve ever read, and ‘The Scar’ and ‘Iron Council’ fulfil its promise even if they don’t quite live up to its majesty, in my opinion. It’s interesting that you single out “early” Mieville, though. ‘This Census Taker’ and ‘The Last Days of New Paris’ were real let-downs for me. I think, sadly, Mieville has disappeared up his own literary backside. Such a shame. 🫤

      @@mandelbot5318 i was introduced to Perdido by my childhood friend Malcolm Craig the creator of the TTRPG A-State back when China got it Published. King Rat was awesome. Then read everything from The Scar onwards. Got a signed copy of Iron Council for my 19th? 20th?. The compilation Three Moments lost me. Loved Looking for Jake. But as he matured and became more Overtly Political i found myself becoming disinterested and moving further afield. But between 15 and 30 he was my absolute favourite. Perdido is directly responsible for the birth of my first son. Read his Mother it everynight till she fell asleep or opened her legs lol. That books prose can get anyone pregnant.
