Sci-Fix52 is back for a new year. If you're new to this, the goal is simple Watch 52 Sci-Fi films in one year. You can watch weekly or they can be watched as quickly as possible, or take your time. Don't feel like that you have to rush and finish all 52 movies. Just finish them before January 1st, 2026. If you don't finish the list, that's okay. I create a list of prompts that are brand new while also re-using prompts from Sci-Fix52 2025.
The challenge begins on Sunday, January 1, 2025, and anybody interested in participating can submit a list in the comments section below, and I will remark on your list with my pick for the #52…
