Not really. We are allowed to talk about all sorts of things. You only have to visit Jim's Facebook page to know that he enjoys talking about various films that he likes. Although, perhaps I should have put "NJC" in the thread line. Everybody used to do that but I haven't seen it much lately. I apologise if we are still meant to do that.

I know for a fact that at least Ryan is a massive Star Wars fan, so I was really thinking of him when I posted the obituary. However, I would be interested to hear from any Star Wars fans. I always see the first film as being the best but that may be because of my age and the mania that surrounded it. According to the obituary, The Empire Strikes Back is better.

Although, maybe science fiction is relevant because Jim is a science fiction writer. As you probably know, Obsidian in BOOH The Musical is set in the post-apocalyptic future.

When I started a science fiction thread there were 22 replies. This is that post:

I noticed The Wolf talking about Doctor Who in his profile (he would like to write for that series) and LordRahl recently suggested that "Farscape" would be a better plot than Peter Pan for "BOOH". I also read in the paper today that George Lucas will soon be releasing the Star Wars films in 3D. This reminded me of a conversation I had with Ryan ages and ages ago (Scaramouche is right that I have a good memory) about his love for those films. So I thought that maybe we could start a science fiction thread to discuss our favourite science fiction books, films, television series or computer games. My personal favourite is the original Star trek series that is still being broadcast. I like the films but I prefer the TV series, even though the sets and the costumes are sometimes awful. Perhaps Ryan could comment on George Lucas, since it now appears that he is back on the board. I would be interested to know what The Wolf meant when he was talking about taking certain elements out of Doctor Who. Also, many thanks to LordRahl for posting his "Farscape" clip further down this page. Maybe he could tell us more about how he got into "Farscape". Gosh. I would be interested to hear from anyone who has anything to say about science fiction. Does anyone else like Kubrick's "2001"? I love it but when I'm in a different mood from when I love Star Trek.
