15 Must-Watch Anime (for DnD Players)
Dungeons and Dragons (DnD for short) remains one of the most popular fantasy roleplaying games around. It has drawn inspiration from tons of fantasy literature--from Tolkein's Lord of the Rings to Michael Moorcock's Elric Saga. Fans of DnD often seek out fantasy books and films to recreate that rush of imagination and inspiration they feel while rolling a twenty-sided dice. So often, however, they neglect anime in their pursuit.

Best Sci-Fi Book to Movie Adaptations
“The book was better than the movie” is a common phrase every movie goer has heard when viewing book to movie adaptations. Yet that isn't always true. Sometimes, when a book is transformed to the screen, the moments you had to conjure up with your imagination are brought to life right before your eyes. Those monsters, characters and epic action scenes are even more intense and entertaining. Sci-fi book to movie adaptations are a popular evolution in the genre and allows the fans of the greatest authors to relive their favorite literature moments as they're brought to life by some of the most well known directors.

Bizarre Creatures that Would Look Totally Normal In a Sci-Fi Movie
When people think about all the different animals that have been discovered on Earth, it's hard to pin down a standard "earth look" that we should expect of creatures. That being said, we definitely can tell when an animal looks alien to us.

Greatest Science Fiction One-on-One Battles Ever...and Their Spoofs!
When they engaged me to do a piece on Greatest Science Fiction Battles, I was not only honored but sweaty with fear. I eyeballed my anxiety meds, but knew that wasn't the answer. Rather, I asked for an extra shot of espresso in my coffee then texted a friend to chew her fingernails as my surrogate, since mine were cut too short, and then I asked for proof via Instagram that she was doing it (but she ignored me).

Weirdest Characters in 'Star Wars Legends' Canon
With Star Wars: The Last Jedi fast approaching, it is clear that the Star Wars universe will be expanding and growing in the next years to come. However, for many growing up in the 80s and 90s in the aftermath of Return of the Jedi, the future of the Galaxy Far, Far Away looked far less than glamorous.

Sci-Fi Frenemies You Love to Hate
Science fiction is full of rivalries, of enemies, of villains, but frenemies--the sort of characters who are at once friend and foe--are less common. It is hard to find two characters who are at once locked in combat and embroiled in passionate friendship.

Weird Scientific Theories Proposed in Science Fiction
Science fiction can be wacky, especially when weird theories about existence get thrown into the mix. Some sci-fi prides itself on its grounded adherence to scientific law. Hard sci-fi, as it is sometimes called, obeys the laws of theoretical physics (think the Mars Trilogy, Moon, or, recently, Arrival). Other times, writers play fast and quick with the laws, don't explain what is happening, and hope that the audience will suspend disbelief so they can join them on a wild ride. Sometimes, audiences don't mind this (do we really understand how the Death Star can blow up a whole planet? Or care?), but sometimes writers try to justify what's happening with "science." The weird sci-fi theories these writers create range from sound and plausible to so abstract and bizarre that the audience just sits back, slack jawed, and asks "What the hell am I watching?"
