What are you watching?
It is interesting to note the underlying narratives in the science fiction from the various national sources. It speaks to some kind of cultural psyche perhaps. Definitely a military tone to most American SF, from Storm Troopers to Galactica, certainly the kind that makes it to the screen.

But if you read it instead you can pick up different perspectives, different agendas. A lot of 'cries for freedom' and pokes at culturally based domination.

I quite like Australian SF, it does seem to be a little more 'out there', with a focus on the natural world turning a bit unnatural, and British, which has an unpleasant habit of being rather prescient. Though I really do hope Peter F Hamilton doesn't follow suit, his zombies are more terrifying than any the American screenwriters can come up with...
