Question: What's the difference between Sci-Fi and Fantasy? Answer: Some would say that there is very little difference between the two forms. Orson Scott Card, an award-winning novelist in both genres, has said that the difference is illusory. "Half joking, I was writing to Ben [Bova] about this very subject, and I said, look, fantasy has trees, and science fiction has rivets," Card said in a 1989 interview. "That's it, that's all the difference there is, the difference of feel, perception." Science fiction and fantasy both explore other realities than our own. And in the sense that either way what really matters in human nature, the difference is one of setting and environment. But there is a fundamental difference -- one of aspiration. Humanity can look forward to the kinds of achievements postulated in science fiction, while with another part of our brain we can dream of the impossibilities conjured by fantasy. Science fiction expands our world; fantasy transcends it.

Star Wars 3. Star Trek 4. Matrix 5. Red Dwarf Fantasy knihy: 1. J.R.R. Tolkien - The Hobbit (The book is full of adventure and humorous situations.

Úkol č. 3 Většina slavných sci-fi románů už byla zfilmována, některé knihy se dokonce dočkaly zpracování několik. Vaším úkolem bude porovnat nějaký sci-fi román (popř. povídku) s jeho filmovým/televizním zpracováním. Toto porovnání napište anglicky v cca 150-250 slovech. Sphere is one of my favorite books written by Michael Crichton. Usually when I read a Michael Crichton’s book it does not take much time because I am so excited by the story that I want to know what happens next as soon as possible. The same thing happened with Sphere. Sphere is full of mysterious and exciting moments and you never know what is going to happen next. I read the book before the film was created and I was really looking forward to see it. I cannot say that I was disappointed but the book is much better (unfortunately it applies for many film adaptations of popular books). If I had to choose between reading the book and watching the film I would definitely prefer reading the book. However, it has been quite long time since I read the book and saw the film. Thinking and writing about it makes me want to read the book and see the film again.
