I love a funny sci-fi movie. The Coneheads? Count me in. Palm Springs? Way ahead of you buddy. Weird Science? Don’t play with me like that. We don’t necessarily think of sci-fi as being funny since the high-flying adventure movies with big themes immediately come to mind, but who says you have to be humorless if you have lasers and robots? Lasers and robots can actually be extremely funny.
Even the more serious sci-fi films are improved by dashes of humor in them. Think of all the C3PO moments in Star Wars. Nobody would really classify Star Wars as a comedy, but dang it if I didn’t laugh out loud when R2D2 and Yoda are fighting over the candy bar in Empire. And you know what highlights those moments more than anything? Sci-fi memes. Sci-fi memes combine everything we love about the genre and amp up the funny. So it’s a good thing you’re here.
