Hollywood e o cinema de ficção científica

Do Twitter do Fabio Fernandes: Why Hollywood can't get the hang of science fiction?, artigo no The Guardian. Resumindo: porque ficção científica é, em essência, um gênero de boas ideias e Hollywood não é exatamente um lugar onde elas encontram um ambiente propício para se reproduzir.

It is often said that science fiction is a genre of ideas. The best of it brings together threads not just from the physics or chemistry, but from the arts, politics, philosophy and beyond. The best SF authors are natural autodidacts, synthesising often disparate areas of knowledge to produce their own distinct visions of reality. And the best of those visions offer invaluable insights into the modern world as we experience it.
