The science fiction genre sets its self apart from western and gangster genres because it doesn't have the typical iconographic figures. Western films are full of the basic's cowboys, train robberies, and shootouts. The same is true for gangster movies besides they have their tommy guns, crimes, and drugs. With science fiction themes have a wide range from time travel, aliens, space, to robots, etc. The opportunities are endless for the different themes and features in the story lines of science fiction. Since there is really no basic setting like the typical train robbery or drive by gang shooting, Science fiction is a very diverse genre that has many different iconographic features that challenge it to stray away from the basic themed genres.

I thought Hel did not fill the uncanny expectation that most people view as robotic when she was recreated from Maria. She was just as human looking as her former self because most films don’t portray robots as human like. Even though this isn’t the typical robot style it helps separate the science fiction genre away from the typical iconographic films. Science fiction is a genre that can be appreciated by a diverse group of people.
