What's up with Twitter these days? Are the blue checks running out of opinions? Because lately the takes have been extra bad, and today's main character is journalist @elle_hunt, who thinks a horror movie cannot be set in space. It all started when @elle_hunt tweeted a poll asking whether or not Alien was a horror movie, after which she followed up with the controversial bad take in question: 'My argument: horror cannot be set in space.' @elle_hunt got dragged so hard by so many people, that she accidentally made 'Alien' and 'Event Horizon' trend on Twitter. While many responded with stills from their favorite sci-fi horror films, others argued simply that 'space' is just a setting, and horror can exist in any setting, as long as there is fear. We've collected some of the spiciest and funniest replies to @elle_hunt's Twitter fail.

While we don't like to pick sides in the age-old Star Wars vs Star Trek battle, we will say that the former has quite a bit of edge in the meme department. The proof is all over Reddit. There are many different meme sharing communities on the site, and they've seen quite a bit of success as well. Though the memes can get a little niche and stupid, we definitely think they're worth sharing. And if you need more? We're happy to provide.
We're not sci-fi purists here. We believe it's possible to be fans of both the Star Trek and Star Wars universes as controversial as that may sound. But today we're unapologetic in our decision to dedicate this gallery to the under-represented Star Trek memes that the internet (especially Tumblr) has to offer. So sit back, enjoy the shitposts, and live long and prosper.
Yeah, yeah. We realize that Ewoks and Jawas are reasonably cute, but there's something about Star Wars in playful comic for that takes things to the next level. This is the wholesome sci-fi comic we've been on the hunt for. The artist behind these whimsical drawings doesn't limit himself to Star Wars material, so if you like what you see take a look at the rest of his work here.
Happy Stranger Things Day! November 6 commemorates that fateful day in 1983 when Will Byers disappeared at the beginning of season one. To celebrate, we're bringing you some memes that might just compete with that beautiful hair on our crush, Steve Harrington.
Now all we need is for season three to start...
