Chris Nashawaty is the author of the new book, “The Future Was Now: Madmen, Mavericks, and the Epic Sci-Fi Summer of 1982.”
Q. How do you define sci-fi and how do you think sci-fi fans and the general public will? Because I don’t think all of these are sci-fi movies. And this is controversial, but I realized that I really like the voiceover version of “Blade Runner” better than the director’s cut, because it’s the one I saw first. I like the film noir aspects of it. It feels like “The Maltese Falcon.” I agree that it’s a better movie without the voiceover, but only after you’ve seen it with the voiceover, so you understand what is happening.
I’ll be honest with you, the book I wrote before this was about “Caddyshack,” which had lots of cocaine stories. So I really liked talking to Oliver Stone about his foggy period while he was writing “Conan.”
