I think this has been done, but new members have shown up or may have missed it.
What solidified your becoming a sci fi fan?
For me, it was Twilight Zone, Star Trek and the Planet of the Apes. Creature Feature was a show that encompassed everything from Godzilla to Frankenstein.
But for the first exposure that rung my bell, it was Rod Serling's Twilight Zone.
How about you, Scified?

There's a lot of things that could've done it.
Maybe it was a video game? The two movies that probably had something to do with it are Jurassic Park/World and Godzilla.

So i find it hard to remember the Trigger, i am not sure there was any Real One Movie/TV Series but just in General i was into Sci-Fi (as well as other Genres) but Sci-Fi has always been a Strong Favorite, i would say sure TV Series like Star Trek, the Planet of the Apes as well as Various B-Movies from the Late 50's/60's. I was really Impressed with WAR OF THE WORLDS as a Kid, but also Forbidden Planet.
But then so many other 70's and 80's Shows really got me interested, which Included Blake 7, Dr Who, Buck Rogers etc. The TV Series V was a One of my Favorites too.

MemberLegendNov-09-2019 2:44 PMIt seems like some of us became sci fi fans without realizing it. They were movies and shows that were different from say, cop shows or sitcoms- although there was a place for them too but leave little to the imagination. Maybe it was the general "what if" or "that could actually happen" sense that we gravitated to.

MemberConversationalistNov-10-2019 10:45 AMI think it was also the doing of video games that made me like sci-fi. Though I'm sure my love just developed overtime somehow.

If people weren't lazy, we wouldn't try to be efficient. If we weren't efficient, we'd never get anything done.
