Science Fiction // Rock Band?

Yes, I have seen those movies. That's exactly the problem. I have seen them, but what else is there to see? Every year brings new science fiction movies in which the great potential that is explored in those movies (I wouldn't agree about Star Trek movies, though) is wasted.

Here are a few examples of major science fiction productions of 2011:
Battle: Los Angeles, Super 8, X-Men First Class, Green Lantern, Rise of the Planet of the Apes, Transformers: Dark of the Moon, Cowboys and Aliens, Real Steel, The Thing
Was any of those movies anything more than good entertainment at best? There's the exception of Another Earth, but this movie really felt like nothing more than a wannabe indie movie to me. A great cinematography, but not much flesh around the bones. An aesthetic that is irrelevant to the content.

The problem with science fiction is that it's risky. It costs a lot to produce because it often depends heavily on special effects. Don't get me wrong, some producers will take some risks. Melancholia, if you consider it science fiction, is certainly a very uncommon movie (although I wouldn't exactly consider Lars Von Trier a risk). In 2009, the movie Moon was quite a remarkably unconventional production considering how heavily it depended on CGI.

But once again, that's my point: it's remarkable to see productors take so much risks.
