Started watching Another Life.
Realized what I don’t like about most space sci-fi from recent years. The tech feels like premium mediocre computer hardware aesthetic. Like early Samsung ripoffs of Apple. I prefer 90s space visuals to this chrome and brushed aluminum look.

Can’t wait for a domestic cozy space SF to kick in. We got a preview with Guardians of the Galaxy. There’s literally a cuddly animal and a potted plant as part of the crew and lead guy has permanent 80s nostalgia.
That was comic book space fiction. I want domestic cozy opera.

Another Life was awful. Have you seen Dark, the breakout German Netflix series. Totally about time and it’s various aspects, and foreign origin adds a really interesting aesthetic and approach

Specifically, I think there’s something in German culture that doesn’t fit things automatically into good vs evil, like US does. Likes to question them, reverse them, complexity them
