Sci-fi fantasy films weave a spellbinding tapestry of futuristic wonders and fanciful adventures that capture the hearts and minds of spectators. These films transport viewers to worlds beyond their imagination, taking them to distant galaxies, strange universes, and enchanting landscapes. They arouse a sense of amazement with cutting-edge visual effects and innovative storytelling, leaving the viewers questioning the universe’s potential.
First one on the list is Black Swan. I haven’t seen it, but I have never seen it associated with science fiction.
Most people use the term Science Fiction in a colloquial manner that means anything that has fantastical elements.
Based on these criteria every non-documentary movie is a science-fiction. Also, Black Swan is not a science-fiction movie, just a speculative fiction.
I don’t know what to tell you. You can argue taxonomy all you want and it won’t change how people use the term. Just look at the lists people are posting in this thread. None of them are science fiction to me, they are fantasy, political satire, and speculative fiction.
It’s a spectrum. It can be argued that Star Trek is not science fiction because it contains time travel, which is, as far as current scientific knowledge tells us, impossible.
But most people will agree that it is science fiction, albeit a space opera, or soft science fiction if you will, in both senses of the term.
