Can you give some examples of 'affiche science fiction'?
Well, consider the poster for 'The Matrix'. It has that iconic green - tinted code falling down and Neo in his cool black leather outfit. That's definitely an 'affiche science fiction'. Also, a poster for 'Alien' with the menacing alien creature with its jaws open and a terrified crew member in the foreground is a great example. These posters not only promote the movies but also become iconic representations of the science fiction genre. They often use elements like advanced technology, strange creatures, and otherworldly settings to draw people in and give them a taste of what the movie is about.
One example could be a poster for 'Jurassic Park'. Although it's more about prehistoric creatures in a modern - day setting which has elements of science fiction. It might show a T - Rex roaring with people running away in a jeep. Another example is a poster for 'Ender's Game' which could show Ender in his battle suit with the starry backdrop of the battle school. These 'affiche science fiction' are important as they can create a lot of hype before a movie or a book release and also become collectible items for fans.

Another instance is faster - than - light travel. According to our current understanding of physics, traveling faster than the speed of light is not possible.

This is bad science used to enable exciting stories and adventures in the fictional universe.

In 'Avatar', the corporate greed of the RDA Corporation is a major theme. They are only interested in the valuable mineral unobtanium on Pandora, regardless of the destruction they cause to the native Na'vi people and their planet.

In '1984' by George Orwell, the Party gaslights the citizens. They constantly rewrite history, making people doubt their own memories. For example, if someone remembered a certain event one way, the Party's revised version would make them question their sanity. Another is in 'The Matrix'. When Neo first starts to realize the truth, the agents try to make him think he's crazy, denying the reality he's starting to perceive.
