Is Riddick actually science fiction? I guess Pitch Black had some mild astronomy, but other than that I don't recall much science or speculation in the films.

Human colonization of alien planets and long term/distance space travel is still fiction that would require scientific advancement from current capabilities

You are a forever midwit if you think LOGH is the product of deep political thought.

Nothing before and nothing since in animation has matched the depth of LOGH.

You're confusing length for depth. LGH is not even as deep as Gall Force.

In fact there's a fair number of '80s and '90s OVAs more intelligent than than LGH that didn't feel the need to stretch out a shallow story over a thousand episodes.

I think it depends on what is meant by post-earth. I'll be interpreting it as "it is possible and for a human to be born off-Earth and live their entire life without going to Earth." Notably, since it's post-Earth, it must a setting where Earth is confirmed to exist, as opposed to Star Wars, VOTOMS, Kaiba, etc.
Only stuff I've seen and like:
<TV
Star Trek TOS, TNG, DS9, VOY, ENT
<Anime
Captain Harlock (and the rest of Leijiverse by extension)
Gundam main universe (probably most spin-offs too)
LOGH
G Fighter Gundam (it's almost all set on Earth, but most of Humanity lives in space)
Cowboy Bebop
Gankutsuo (I've only seen the first episode but it looks kino)
>>369411
Oshii works are deeper and better animated; his stuff had massive influence on Groundhog Day, The Matrix, Inception, etc. I still like LOGH though.

Yes. Earth had to have existed but it's been stripped raw or overpopulated to the point space colonization was necessary

Groids are just what come to mind when I hear space colonization.

Was Terra Formars any good? I read some of the manga but never finished it. Does it qualify as post earth?

TerraFormars has an awesome concept with a terrible execution.
And no, Earth still exists and is the center of humanity.

In post earth, earth could still exist as a home planet but a need go it space expansion would be necessary for reason or another.

That was my favorite movie when I was like 13. It has its flaws, but to me it'll always be the real Dune movie.

Dunc is pozzed and soulless.
>Only 2 good things came out of that movie
It also has great production design for the different cultures and a really good soundtrack. Plus it led to the games.
>the boxy shield effects
That's one of the worst parts of the visual effects.
