Call me crazy, but I believe science fiction is (still!) Hollywood's underdog. While everyone else is laughing along with a buddy comedy, crying at the latest drama, or clutching their seats because they insisted on viewing a terrifying movie, we sci-fi fans 

are enjoying a skillfully created blend of fact and fiction. This year, I'd like to invite you to the celebration and to discover the world of science fiction.

You're in luck if you're fresh to the genre. The film schedule for 2023 has a wealth of tasty selections to choose from. Do you like prehistoric animals? Consider watching 65 or the forthcoming Meg 2. Do you prefer a thriller? Then, for your next movie night, choose Knock at the Cabin or Infinity Pool. Of course, we'll watch Dune: Part Two.

We've collected up nine major hitters to appreciate now and later this year to ease you into your sci-fi voyage.

1. Transformers: Rise of the Beasts


2. Guardians of the Galaxy Volume 3


3. Meg 2: The Trench


4. The Flash


5.  Fast X


6.  Barbie


7.  Insidious: The Red Door


8.  They Cloned Tyrone


9.  Blue Beetle
