Which sci-fi titles (movies, books) do you consider comforting, cozy, something you come back to from time to time? For me, I guess it is The Matrix. Still holds up to this day, gets better with every re-watch, and gives me a sense of peace when I need it.

        I don’t know if I should upvote you for having it on your list or downvote you for not having watched it already…

            I didn’t feel a lack of closure. It was still a few years before mass serialization of TV so episodes are largely self contained. There’s a movie that came out afterwards that gives some answers to a few questions that weren’t wrapped up.

              Agree. For me the problem with it ending too soon is mostly that I liked it and wanted more , but it wasn’t really a single overarching story that needed an ending.

              Contrast it with Babylon 5 where the overall story arc was everything

        10 episodes of a prematurely cancelled show due to the incompetence of Fox plus a movie called Serenity which wraps up what should have been the rest of season 1. It’s about a crew that does odd jobs in a Rimworld/space cowboy-esque theme.

        I just watched it again for like the nth time. It’s still so good. It has Nathan Filion, Jewel Staite, Morena Baccarin and the fantastic Summer Glau!

        The show is great, although i have noticed how it has a pretty high amount of shots of Summer Glau’s feet. Just Summer Glau walking and the camera panning to her feet, over and over, almost every episode. It doesn’t even make sense because the spaceship is made of metal grates and sheets, not carpet.

        I’m guessing the show runner was into feet. But other than that, the show is pretty wholesome.

            For real. I always skip show intros, i find them a pointless waste of time and resources that I’m just going to skip anyway, but this show and Game of Thrones are the exceptions because of the cool songs. I am not familiar with Trème though.
