Do you need a distraction from your everyday life?

Most of us do every now and again. We need something that will lift us out of our circumstances and drop us into something new. We need change, and we need it now. We spend so much our lives doing the same thing. We wake up in the same bed, go to the same job, shop at the same grocery store, and expect that it will all stay the same. There is beauty in stability, sure. We like knowing what we’re doing and where we’re going and who we’re doing it with. But every now and again we need a break from all that sameness. We want a little something different to wake us up, shake us, and then send us on the road again. Movies and television can be great at doing that for us. Especially science fiction.
