Abstract:
This research note explores how logistics, though often overlooked, is a central element in space fantasy science fiction narratives. In Frank Herbert’s Dune, the spice—essential for interstellar travel—demonstrates how logistics influences space geopolitics. Star Wars highlights the logistical challenges involved in managing an intergalactic empire, from constructing the Death Stars to coordinating rebel fleets. In Star Trek, space exploration depends on intricate logistics to sustain ships, space stations, and diplomatic relations. Finally, Isaac Asimov’s Foundation illustrates how the colla

Abstract:
Star Wars (1977-2019), directed by George Lucas, is a science fiction (fiction based on imagined future scientific or technological advances and major social or environmental changes) saga that takes place in the outer space universe. The whole story is an intergalactic adventure surrounding the ongoing battle between the Jedi Order, which represents the bright side and the Sith Order, which represents the dark forces. Despite that were massive number of studies done on them as films of science fiction, few have looked at Star Wars from a perspective that would categorize them instead as nosta

Abstract:
Transhumanism is a school of thought that promotes the enhancement of humanity through technological intervention (e.g., cloning, gene therapies, uploading one’s mind to a computer, nanotechnology). Due to its aims of altering evolutionary processes (Bostrom, 2005), transhumanism is highly controversial (Sinicki, 2015). The ideology finds support from younger men, as well as those engaged in science-fiction literature (Gangadharbatla, 2020; Koverola et al., 2022). The present study aimed to investigate the role of gender and specific science fiction fan identities as predictors of transhumanis

Abstract:
Fanfiction has a long and varied history in the Star Wars franchise since it began in 1977 with the debut of the first film, Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope. The decade of the 1970s created new possibilities for science fiction multiverses and metanarratives; science fiction became an adaptive film genre that could be reimagined with seemingly infinite narrational results. The myriad of genre films that were released in the mid-to-late 1970s revealed dynamic syntheses with horror (e.g. Alien, Invasion of the Body Snatchers and Close Encounters of the Third Kind), franchises that previously ha

Abstract:
Star Wars is a science fiction saga that for over thirty years has captivated fans and viewers all over the world. The saga reproduces the desires of the current society, decade by decade, and also produces new forms of representation regarding female characters. Although we know names like Princess Leia and Padmé, both had their narratives crossed by negative stereotypes about female representations. As it is a science fiction genre, we still notice a mostly male presence, despite new appearances of heroines. However, it was with the release of The force awakens (Foster, 2015), that the franc

Abstract:
Cınema is a unique means of expression. Pictures and sounds are the elements of the language of cinema. One of the elements that support these elements is furniture, which is one of the working areas of the design concept. The cinema genre that is most intertwined with the design discipline is science fiction. In this research, the relationship between cinema and space is examined on the science fiction movies and series of 1960-70, when the theme of Space in the context of furniture was at its peak. Within the scope of the study, the effects of the furniture used on the spatial narratives in

Abstract:
Both the phenomena of watching and being watched and furniture design are as old as human history. Today, it can be easily stated that the most fundamental provider of the phenomena of watching and being watched is the field of cinema, and the most major form of the relationship established with the visual is the art of cinema. Furniture, on the other hand, appears as a basic equipment used in the field of cinema. In this context, it can be stated that furniture, as a basic equipment used in cinematic works, is a part of the integrity of cinema and is one of the paradigms that constitute this

Abstract:
Star Wars has become one of a handful of science-fiction franchises that have defined and shaped what Adorno calls the modern culture industry. The original trilogy challenged the way Hollywood financed and marketed its movies and made George Lucas incredibly rich. Star Wars fans bought tickets for re-releases, special editions and the notoriously egregious prequels, as well as a seemingly endless range of merchandise. When Lucas sold the franchise to Disney new movies were promised, including what became the stand-alone prequel Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. In this article, I am interested in

This principle is about how man faces new situations through old knowledge and experience of similar events. For this study, I analyzed selected stories in which individuals describe their religious interest and involvement in the Star Wars movies, and the related religious community Temple of the Jedi Order, as well as the television series Doctor Who, with the ass

Central to the argumentation is films and television series, from Star Wars and Star Trek, to Firefly and Torchwood.

AbstractThe Star Trek franchise is frequently described as utopian, the bright future of humanity, Earth, and the universe. The time and society of the Starfleet explorers is said to have overcome issues of inequality, racism, sexism, hunger, war, capitalism, greed, and environmental problems. This is at the same time a radical fantasy of the future and an artistic and commercial product of our own time. In their travels across the galaxy, the Starfleet explorers also encounter different civilizations, often depicted or even described as reminiscent of various time periods of Earth’s history.
