This week’s AMC column is about science fiction films that aren’t — that is, films that are arguably science fictional but which, for whatever reason, might not be considered science fiction films (for example, the latest Indiana Jones flick). We had a lot of these films last year, and some of them were the biggest box office draws of 2008. Come find out which ones I think qualify as actual science fiction, and which ones, ...

Props go to Mike at IHaveAZune.com for putting these pieces together in an email conversation we were having. Earlier the code for this infamous Zune bug showed up on Digg.
