We raise the platform and wait for the lightning to strike, creating a creature (it&#8217;s alive!) as we cover our Top 5 Sci-Fi Comedies. Science Fiction actually has a long and storied past with comedy (while the movie was questionable the Hitchhikers Guide immediately pops into mind). The genres can blend so well perhaps because by removing the bounds of what is currently &#8220;real&#8221; from comedy storytellers are given that much more room to explore. And explore we will!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4322\" src=\"https:\/\/cinemajaw.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/479cover-hansi-oppenheimer.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1080\" height=\"608\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cinemajaw.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/479cover-hansi-oppenheimer.png 1080w, https:\/\/cinemajaw.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/479cover-hansi-oppenheimer-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/cinemajaw.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/479cover-hansi-oppenheimer-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/cinemajaw.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/479cover-hansi-oppenheimer-1024x576.png 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1080px) 100vw, 1080px\" \/>Joining us is a woman who knows much about abominable creatures and genre blends.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/squeeprojects.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Hansi Oppenheimer<\/a>\u00a0is an independent filmmaker from NYC.
