Best Space Opera

[thrinidir]

To me, space opera is 'action adventure' with blasters substituted for cutlasses or six guns, space ships substituted for ships of the line or horses - simple action adventure in a loosely agreed upon "science fictional" setting.

Just because a work is dated does not automatically place it in the space opera category.

Your perception of space opera is just different from ours i guess...dated works have nothing to do with it.
