Okay, tell me about this. I decided to try it last weekend, as i love sci-fi, but the intro or trailer showed a 'contemporary era' dude, wearing a fedora, possibly in a hallucination or something(?), and i was immediately like, Nope—can't do it and switched off.
I have some pretty stringent criteria for Sci-fi. I hate too many bright, happy colors, and when something tech-y is going on and there's an 'energy/plasma' thing happening, i hate that it's always green. Weird, idiosyncratic stuff like that. Sci-fi, for me, should look like Star Wars/Blade Runner. Not Total Recall and Fifth Element, although i can deal with it in some instances...
