In Part 3 of our Sci-fi sub-Genres in Film series, The FU trio dive into Space Opera – and spend much of the discussion debating precisely what defines the term, and what constitutes a Space Opera in the first place! From influential sci-fi authors of the 1940s, 50s 60s and 70s such as Isaac Asimov, Arthur C Clarke and Philip K Dick, to the serials and comic strips of the 1930s such as Flash Gordon, right through to modern motion picture epics and the revival of the genre – of sorts – in 90s television! Expect the usual suspects of Star Wars and Star Trek, but also a few nods to other noteworthy examples along the way!
