Comment on Adults' obsession with science fiction causing society to become infantilisedparent

Comments

The main thing I disagreed with is that any one genre has a monopoly on stupidity. Your comment is like quoting "She loves you yeah yeah yeah" to dismiss the Beatles or pop music. A high premium placed on intellectualism rather than work that engages the heart, the soul, the hips, discusses social dynamics, and so forth.

Actually I mean romantic comedies in their entirety including all of film and literature. Your perspective evinces a strong familiarity with SF and a surface impression of recent romcoms but I could be wrong.

To me SF films are mainly about technology fetishism and the social commentary is incidental.
