You wouldn't consider The Fifth Element as sci fi? Wut in tarnation?quote:
I think people throw around the term sci-fi too loosely
One can argue whether Space Opera is SciFi all day, I suppose, but I generally agree that there should be some element of "science" in "science fiction."
For example, I do not see Star Wars as "science fiction" at all. Pure Space Opera.

Thank you, this is exactly what I meant. Star Wars is a great example of a space movie that doesn't make any attempt to be sci-fi.
Spielberg put a lot of work into making Minority Report a look into future technologies, including the future of transportation.
