Summarising comment

Science fiction is an interesting genre in terms of looking at what is actually happening within our society today. We can see through star trek how Treknology has developed and we have actual account of how this has been a working force in the development of new media. Furthermore we take the comment by William Gibson about how the future is now the present. What once were unimaginable concepts have become part of day to day life. Virtual reality is no longer a thing the past but something we can almost grasp. The development of each new sci- fi film shows us a new innovation in Special effects which causes audiences to face the impact and perhaps our unhealthy dependence we have on technologies. Science fiction films and literature have become almost warnings for the problems which could occur within the future is we walk the same paths that societies have done in that past. Science fiction has become a way for us the perceive conceivable events for the future and these should be considered, not simply dismissed as Dick said as for adolescents or for the disturbed.
