Comforting science fiction (lemmy.world)

Which sci-fi titles (movies, books) do you consider comforting, cozy, something you come back to from time to time? For me, I guess it is The Matrix. Still holds up to this day, gets better with every re-watch, and gives me a sense of peace when I need it.

It has my all time favorite TV theme song too (ok, maybe tied with Trème).

For real. I always skip show intros, i find them a pointless waste of time and resources that I'm just going to skip anyway, but this show and Game of Thrones are the exceptions because of the cool songs. I am not familiar with Trème though.

It’s a docudrama about New Orleans right after Katrina. A great, but difficult and disturbing watch. It was mostly filmed locally and each episode was named after a song and featured a local band. It was also a fundraiser.

And here’s the Firefly theme. The only song I think I’ve air-violined to. So much nostalgia…
