These days, with all the horrible and stressful things going on in the world, you wouldn't think we need to make things feel even crazier by asking "what if?" through art. But somehow, the science fiction genre is still alive and kicking. And we believe it's the ultimate escape from reality, with its far-out planets and mind-blowing technology.
That said, science fiction isn't just about the crazy stuff, the fighting, or the special effects. It's the characters that really get us hooked, and they've managed to capture fans worldwide for all sorts of reasons. Sci-fi can be surprisingly relatable, and it's packed with cool weapons and spaceships. No wonder it's a goldmine for memes and funny pics! Our peers (Read: nerds) have a blast with these jokes and puns, and they're not alone. We all need a little distraction, might as well be far out.
