POLL: Do you consider Star Wars to be science fiction?

Nathanael Greene

It clearly states: a long time ago, in a galaxy far far away

Science Fiction doesn't have to be set in the future.

The question to me is not past, present or future...it is fiction or non fiction

As opposed to historical documents?

Ah, yes, the "historical documents."

The Jar Jar Scrolls.

Hey, don't open that. It's an alien planet. Is there AIR? You don't know!

Maybe he's the plucky comic relief?

It happened in a galaxy far, far away. Who knows what goes on in those far away

Star Wars is more correctly identified as "Space Opera"

4/25/15 7:25am

You must have missed the discussion of midichlorians

Space opera is a sub-genre of science fiction.

No, best descriptor is "Space Fable"

4/25/15 10:39am

It's fantasy.

Sure a few tropes would fit there like the cantina and bounty hunters.

I consider it to be awesome.

It's scripture from another galaxy.

It's got robots, aliens, spaceships and clones.

I always thought it was categorized as space fantasy/science fantasy.
