11 most patriotic sci-fi movie and TV moments

The long July 4th holiday weekend kicks off tomorrow, which for many of us means trips to the beach, burgers on the grill and fireworks (only where legal, of course). But it should also mean some time spent remembering those patriots who defended our liberty—both the real ones who fought for our freedoms and those fictional ones who on television and at the movies reminded us what that liberty was all about.

With that in mind, let's take a look back at our 10 favorite sci-fi examples of patriotic film and TV.

Isn't it so hard to decide a favorite? I've got to say all time is The X-Files. I have all 9 seasons and both movies on dvd, and i hope so much when my 4 year old daughter becomes a teenager that I can share them with her! That being said my first...

Teeth.
It's about a girl with teeth...
guess where?

It's a bout a girl
and bad men
bad choices
and a
bobbet
or two

I suppose it's science fiction. There is a constant background of being in the back yard of a nuclear power plant, and the beginning credits certainly hint at a biological rather than supernatural origin. But really, for us guys (even us nice, gentlemanly fellows) it's definitely a horror movie.

I wonder how women feel about it?

As a super power, I'll just say that while it cert… Continue

This anime is about one such reporter who like many noirish heroes is on the ragged edge of burn out, that is until given an amazing power. After a kiss from a "goddess" (ac… Continue

I wish I might, I wish for might

The sub genre of superhero films have at their heart that secret desire we all have for power. Who wouldn't want to be superman, or to swing through the city like spiderman? Even plain ol' human bruce wayne has that wonderful super power of money, and more money.

Ben 10 (the original cartoon, the new cartoon, and the movie 'Ben 10: Race against time') certainly has to be one of the kings of what every boy dreams of. Our hero Ben accidently gets an alien device latched to his wrist. Now with a m… Continue

MY NETWORKS AND THEIR FUNCTIONAL MEMES

I love the idea of memes. They are so multifaceted. And they can be polished. To spread them requires networking. To infect my friends with my memes, I have been pushing the envelope, innoculating forums and comments with invites. I have spread invites among some friends, infected messages to others. Now I plan to heal my spirit. I will use a blog or text box in some networks to capture all the memes I wish to spread about. From this isolated point, you can visit, consider, link to the correct s… Continue
