Tony Curran Quotes

I think what Stargate has going for it is a sense of humor about their science fiction.

I would like - either as an actor, or producer or even director - to do something sci-fi or action-related. I like sci-fi, always have, 'Star Trek' and 'Star Wars' and all that stuff.

I like sci-fi.

I'm a huge sci-fi geek, and I also really get into all of the alien shows on the History Channel where you see air force pilots talking about UFOs - I love that stuff.

'Farscape' is not what you call hard science fiction.

I think you should check out 'Battle: Los Angeles' because it really is a sci-fi movie, but it's not. It's not like anything you've seen before. The best way to describe it is it's a war movie that happens to have aliens as the enemy.

And I enjoyed the celebrity and the creativity that was involved in Star Trek.

When I was a child, I thought I was going to be a paleontologist because I loved dinosaurs.

I like 'X-Files'-type shows with government conspiracies and extraterrestrials and all that.

I have so many favourite science fiction films. I would say 'Alien' and 'Aliens' are two of my favourite sci-fi films. Also 'Children of Men' would be one of my favourite science fiction films. I love the original 'Solaris' and the remake. And even though it wasn't a film, the series 'Battlestar Galactica' was one of my favourite TV shows.

'Stargate SG-1' is one of Sci Fi's sure-fire hits. It's got one of the best ensemble casts on television and one of the best production teams as well.

Most of my work is science fiction, with many a spaceship but few cars.

I loved 'The X-Files.'

I like some science in my science fiction.

Working with Gale Anne Hurd has been a dream of mine. I mean, I grew up watching 'Terminator' and 'Aliens' and watching Sigourney Weaver just slay!

Maybe I'm a product of my era, but I just enjoy the practical effects of 'The Thing' more than CGI aliens.

Doing 'Star Trek,' I got to learn about it from the inside out. I got to learn what appealed to them, why sci-fi meant so much to people, why 'Star Trek' meant so much to people.

Aliens are definitely real.

'Transformers: The Last Knight' is a different kind of movie.
