One of the well - known works is 'Alien Resurrection'. The ship in the movie can be seen as a kind of prison planet where the cloned Ripley and the other creatures are trapped. 'Logan's Run' also has some prison - planet - like ideas. The society in it has a set life span for people, and the world they live in can be considered a form of prison. And 'Battle Royale' is another work. The island where the students are sent can be regarded as a prison planet of sorts, where they have to fight to survive.
Then there is 'Lensman' series which has some elements of sword and planet. It has a vast universe setting, with heroes using both advanced technology and swords in battles across different planets. It also has complex alien races and political intrigue.
One common theme is oppression. In prison planet science fiction, the characters often face strict control and unfair treatment from the ruling power on the planet. Another theme is survival. They have to find ways to survive in a harsh and restricted environment. And the theme of escape also frequently appears, as the characters strive to break free from the prison - like planet.
One of the well - known prison science fiction books is 'The Forever War' by Joe Haldeman. It has elements that can be related to the idea of a prison - like existence within the context of a science - fiction setting. Another is 'Red Mars' by Kim Stanley Robinson, which also touches on themes that could be considered in a prison - science - fiction light in terms of the isolation and confinement on Mars.
Then there's 'The Count of Monte Cristo'. Edmond Dantes is unjustly thrown into prison. In prison, he meets a fellow inmate who teaches him many things. After escaping, he seeks revenge. It's a classic tale that shows the transformation a prison experience can cause in a person.
Well, 'Star Wars' has multiple planets with different species and cultures, much like what might be in 't's planet science fiction'. Also, 'The Expanse' series often explores different planets and their characteristics in a science - fiction context. In 'Star Wars', planets like Tatooine and Hoth are iconic, each with their own climates, species, and cultures. The same kind of exploration of planet - specific features could be found in works similar to 't's planet science fiction'.
One classic is 'A Case of Conscience' by James Blish. It involves complex moral and religious themes set in a double - planet scenario.
One classic is 'The Martian'. It shows how an astronaut tries to survive on Mars while also highlighting the importance of respecting the planet's environment for future colonization. Another is 'Silent Spring' which, although not strictly science fiction about other planets, it inspired a lot of thoughts on environmental preservation that can be related to other planets. Also, 'Dune' with its complex ecosystem on a desert planet and the struggle to preserve it.
One of the most influential works in Planet Science Fiction is 'Dune'. It creates a complex and detailed desert planet Arrakis, with its own unique ecology, politics, and cultures. The story's exploration of power, religion, and environmental issues has inspired many subsequent works.
I'm not sure specifically which '80' you mean here. If it's about works from the 1980s, 'Blade Runner' is a classic. It has a very unique vision of a future Los Angeles and explores themes of artificial intelligence and what it means to be alive.
Edgar Allan Poe also dabbled in what could be considered early science fiction in the 1800s. His stories often had elements of the macabre combined with scientific or technological concepts. For example, 'The Unparalleled Adventure of One Hans Pfaall' which involved a journey to the moon in a rather unique and early take on space travel stories.
