Audition Reel Contains Just About Every Single Science Fiction Trope [Video]

Recommended Videos

In reality, Jacob Fleisher is a successful screenwriter, but in this short video he does a great service to humanity by auditioning for every sci-fi character ever. In doing so, he also runs through just about every single sci-fi trope in the book. The only ones I think he missed would be “it turned out we were the real monsters after all,” or maybe a shaggy-God type scenario. Still, a lot of fun.
