There's a lot of grey area in terms of the sci-fi genre. Is “The Terminator” a sci-fi movie or a slasher horror film? I was faced with this argument the other day. I don't stand firmly on either side of the fence. Through and through, “The Terminator” is a sci-fi flick, but it's so much more than that. It's not quite a full-action film, but the elements are there where I'd forgive someone for making that classification. Based on James Cameron's original intentions, it is a horror sci-fi movie .…

The Star Trek television (and cinematic, we suppose) universe is a very special one. Somehow, creator Gene Roddenberry imagined a world - and television shows - that have always felt super progressive in regards to their both characters and storylines. From the original series, to some of the more controversial and new offerings like Star Trek: Discovery and Strange New Worlds , the stories promote tolerance, curiosity, and peace. Which is impressive given the insane scope of the universe. It's…

Ever wonder how learning that aliens are actually coming from our oceans and not actually outer-space could ruin us? Here are your answers!

Qapla'! nuqneH! As a cha'DIch Star Trek fan who definitely knows how to speak Klingon, I'm pleased to bring you an Enterprise-sized batch of funny memes about the movies and television show. Being a pIn'a' Hurgh of the franchise, I've always been drawn to the unique blend of science fiction, jIH, and qIb Qa' that has made Star Trek a tlhIngan nugh phenomenon for fifty-plus years. One thing that makes Star Trek so vItlhutlh is its ability to tackle important issues in a way that is both yIjatlh…

Isn't it awesome how many technologies humans have come up with in such a relatively short time on this planet? I mean, we've got computers, modern medicine, and even dipping sauce trays for cars - all thanks to some seriously clever folks who busted their butts to make their dreams come true. But you know what's even cooler? When we take that inventiveness and mix it with our wild imagination. That's where science fiction comes in, and let me tell you, there's a reason so many people go nuts f…

Literature was my least favorite subject growing up. It felt like the teachers (and later, professors) had some elevated sense of self that required them to be dismissive of any analysis that was different than their own. While discussing the tired and antiquated Scarlet Letter , the woman would cock her head when I spoke, letting me know she “didn't follow” and “not quite sure I understand.” Weird flex, but okay. The low caliber of English literature teachers le me to pursue other related cour…

These days, with all the horrible and stressful things going on in the world, you wouldn't think we need to make things feel even crazier by asking "what if?" through art. But somehow, the science fiction genre is still alive and kicking. And we believe it's the ultimate escape from reality, with its far-out planets and mind-blowing technology. That said, science fiction isn't just about the crazy stuff, the fighting, or the special effects. It's the characters that really get us hooked, and th…

It's kind of weird that “nerd” was such a major insult when we were growing up. The insinuation was devastating. But t he word “nerd,” if we want to get granular, can actually be pretty damn positive. According to the Oxford dictionary, the term is defined as follows: "1. a person who is extremely enthusiastic and knowledgeable about a particular subject, especially one of specialist or niche interest. "the executive is an unabashed film nerd" 2. DEROGATORY an unfashionable person who lacks soc…

Greetings fellow sci-fi fans! We're back with another one of our weekly batches of entertaining science fiction content. As someone who enjoys both Star Trek and Star Wars, I've curated a collection of sci-fi memes and humor that I think a lot of you might find amusing. You see, sci-fi is more than just a genre, it's a world of adventure, exploration, and imagination that allows us to escape reality, even if it's just for a little while. And what better way to celebrate it than with a collectio…

Today is Cinco de Mayo. A day that is admittedly pretty grotesque when you consider the way it's celebrated in the United States. Yesterday, however, was a holiday that includes none of the vomit-inducing drinking and cultural appropriation that is prevalent on the fifth of May. On May 4th, geeks everywhere celebrate Star Wars Day, and they do it by sharing Star Wars-related content on pretty much every social media platform. Here at Memebase, we don't need an excuse to share sci-fi memes. In f…

Happy May 4th, to anyone who celebrates this hallowed day. But let's be real: Star Wars fans don't really need a day to express their love for the magical sci-fi series. Every single day on the Internet might as well be Star Wars Day. You don't have to look far to understand that George Lucas' devotees are serious about the movies, television shows, games and even books that flesh out the very special universe. There are subreddits galore dedicated to our favorite trilogies and spinoffs, and me…

I've been a Star Wars fan since pretty much the age of five. I went from watching the original trilogy to playing the computer games my dad purchased at Costco. And while some of the re-enactments my cousin and I did were dark AF, I have always enjoyed the lighthearted side of the franchise, including the endless stream of memes that have been created over the years. From classic quotes to hilarious mashups, the world of Star Wars memes is as diverse and entertaining as the galaxy far, far away…

Does anybody enjoy reality these days? As an enthusiast of science fiction media, I find a strangely exciting solace in sci-fi movies, TV shows, books, and video games. Space, extraterrestrials, advanced technology, futuristic scenarios - it's all preferable to, say, sitting at my desk in this particular hellscape. If you're feeling similarly, we suggest you gather 'round and feast your eyes on a plethora of memes that delve deep into these beloved topics. Undoubtedly, sci-fi has emerged as one…
