A current opinion piece from CNN that makes the argument that G.L. ruined the science fiction film genre forever.

Funny the posts are better then the article.
I have read probably nearly all Science fiction books of Asimov and
Neuromancer, Enders's Game and Fahrenheit 451.
Hard to say anything Michael. I liked them when i read them. But Asimov for example isn't on my top list now.
I am just curious why they don't make a Foundation series because it does have elements that Hollywood would like.
I have Haldeman's "The Forever War," waiting since some years to read.
"Dune" is great but everybody knows that.
If you want a hard read try "Star Maker" from Olaf Stapledon. Very different but great book.
"The book describes a history of life in the universe, dwarfing in scale Stapledon's previous book,
Last and First Men, a history of the human species over two billion years"
I copy paste something about Olaf Stapledon every time i have the opportunity.
If anyone wants to write about the story of the universe this is a must read. Not sure about the readers although
