madizi Posted October 1, 2004 at 12:35 PM Report Posted October 1, 2004 at 12:35 PM There is already a debate about sci-fi literature in Art and Literature section on this forum. What about Chinese sci-fi movies? Does anyone now what's worth seeing and what not? Thanks! Quote
Jack MacKelly Posted October 5, 2004 at 06:49 PM Report Posted October 5, 2004 at 06:49 PM I really haven't seen much sci-fi from China suppose Zu warriors from the Magic Mountain could be considered Science-fiction/Fantasy There have also been many copied or translated versions of wars of the worlds - 火星与地球之战争 Janni Dushman and Tian Shi Meng might be considered another sci-fi fantasy film Most sci-fi influence will come from the West, Japan anime or Hollywood. Sci-Fi in China hasn't really taken off yet, but China has the Milky Way Awards (awarded to the year's best science fiction stories as chosen by a panel of Chinese ) Quote
ananda Posted October 6, 2004 at 03:44 PM Report Posted October 6, 2004 at 03:44 PM how about 封神演义'Creation of the Gods'("Canonization of the Gods")? Is it a sci-fi? Quote
madizi Posted April 13, 2021 at 03:14 PM Author Report Posted April 13, 2021 at 03:14 PM Let's revive this thread. (16 years ago...? ) So, does anybody know about any decent Chinese sci-fi movie? Quote
roddy Posted April 13, 2021 at 03:38 PM Report Posted April 13, 2021 at 03:38 PM Well, Shanghai Fortress, 上海堡垒, is awful, if that helps... 1 Quote

madizi Posted April 14, 2021 at 10:09 AM Author Report Posted April 14, 2021 at 10:09 AM Thanks. According to IMDB, 三体 is now in post-production. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4547948/ Quote
