Space Movies
The ultimate frontier, space is the setting for some of mankind’s ultimate adventures, at least in the movies.
Space movies generally (but not always) fall within the genre of science fiction — because we have greater imaginations than knowledge, and it’s fun to just make stuff up to entertain ourselves. Nevertheless, science fiction (as any fiction) works best when concerns real-life human issues, exploring the same themes that challenge our humanity here on Earth. The technology and otherworldly settings serve to unsettle us and make the familiar less so.
