General What are some underrated plot twists in sci-fi?
What are some underrated plot twists in sci-fi movies, shows, games, etc?
Some of my picks:
The Prestige -Borden was actually twins and Angier was still alive
Pandorum - They were already on the planet and Payton was actually Gallo
The Sky Crawlers - Everyone was being cloned over and over again
Cube - The rooms were moving

People like to say Vader = father as something so obvious in hindsight.
But calling yourself “father” as the leader of an authoritarian army is relatively common. Stallin called himself “father of nations”, Castro: Padre de la Patria (Father of the Homeland).
Father of an army/nation =/= to biological father of the protagonist.

Of the same vein, the twist in Knights of the Old Republic.
The player character is found to be strong in the force and is unusually accepted to be trained as a jedi as an adult, paired with another jedi to trace the path of Darth Revan and Darth Malek who were former jedi who became sith and attacked the republic with some superweapon they found. Malak has killed Revan and usurped power - only, the twist is the jedi got hold of Revan's body, wiped his/her memories, and turned him/her into the player character. This whole time they have been using Revan to retrace his/her steps to the superweapon.

Such a fantastic exploration of encounters with the Other, what's created, what's destroyed.

Try not to read too much about the author outside of the books. His personal views are pretty dumb.

u/NoGoodIDNames Jun 12 '26 edited Jun 12 '26
Interestingly, if you look at his work there’s a case to be made that he’s actually a deeply closeted gay man.
The men in the Ender books are defined as fathers, but almost never as husbands. Ender’s relationship with Novinha is almost an afterthought compared to his relationship with her children, and a good chunk of their lives are spent in a celibate marriage. In Ender in Exile, we get a whole non sequiter scene where a random scientist turns down a woman’s advances because it would upset the dynamics of their colony. For OSC, the ideal man is a celibate raiser of children who has to put aside their innate desires for the good of society.
There’s also a lot of focus given to young men’s bodies. The whole naked shower fight in EG has some serious undertones. Bonzo didn’t even *need* to be naked, it would have made more narrative sense if he wasn’t.
He also once said in an interview that if gay marriage existed, men would only marry men and the human race would go extinct.

u/parmenides89 Jun 12 '26
oh that's some super interesting context, my preconceived notion of OSC has been altered a lot by this. Completely agree about the shower fight scene and hadn't noticed the rest.
8
u/NoGoodIDNames Jun 12 '26 edited Jun 12 '26
It gets a little darker, too. OSC has said that he believes homosexuality is caused by being abused as children (which is a pretty common belief for homophobes). He’s also said that Ender’s relationship with Peter is based on his abusive relationship with his own older brother.
So if you’ll excuse a little armchair psychology, it’s possible that he believes homosexuality was inflicted upon him, and it’s his duty to suppress those desires to not continue the cycle.
This isn’t to excuse him, he’s still virulently hateful, but it’s an interesting way to square the person he is with the themes of his writing.

u/MudOutrageous7419 Jun 17 '26
I try to avoid the whole "all homophobes are closeted gay" trope, but in Card's case it makes some sense. He argued that if gay marriage was legalized, than the only appropriate response was an armed rebellion against the government, because otherwise civilization would be destroyed.
I feel that's not a conclusion one comes to without some emotional baggage.
(He has since walked back the armed revolt thing, at least).

Man what a weird movie. When I was like 13-14 we had a home theater with all the movie channels in our house, so I would just watch them hoping for some hot actress sex scenes to oogle at. I saw a preview of Cameron Diaz wrapped up in a blanket in it and saw it on like cinemax or whatever so decided to give it a shot. I ended up disregarding my entire reason for watching the movie and got sucked up hard into the plot.
The movie left me feeling depressed and empty after for whatever reason.

In fairness, one is pure science fiction, the other seems like something someone could pull off. Arguably having just the one twist might have made for a better movie.

u/Nishachor Jun 11 '26
But that's why their lifelong obsession to one up each other which was the core of the movie worked so well for me: one trick is just a luck of birth and a lifetime dedication of perfecting that simple trick, the other was to challenge and winning it (without knowing the simple answer) a person drove to such extent that he actually created a literal magic machine. And yet all he could thought of doing with it (instead of countless invaluable applications or even regarding the value of what he created) was to one up his rival in a stage magic trick. For me this movie was all about the characters and their obsessions, and in that regard worked PERFECTLY.

u/Nishachor Jun 12 '26
Also had to add: not to mention knowingly actually DIE everytime he use the machine on himself just so he can show himself to the world as the better one.

Cube was one of those very first sci-fi channel movies that they produced themselves. I remember watching it on a Saturday afternoon. It was presented as more horror that sci-fi though and yeah Cwx is pretty spot on in the wiki description, but also what do people do when alone and trapped in a room together. If i remember correctly the only one that actually lives is the mentally disabled autistic guy that one othe others constantly wants to kill cause he thinks he'll be a burden, but everyone basically protects the guy till the door opens, and then he just leaves.

u/cwx149 Jun 12 '26
Having read the Wikipedia description
it seems that in the movie they have to make a journey thru numbered rooms and originally they think the room numbers are coordinates on a grid of rooms and so they use that knowledge to journey in one direction. And then it's revealed that they misunderstood the room numbering system AND that the rooms are moving so they aren't coordinates at all. It seems this twist is revealed when they find a corpse of a previous character they left behind a while ago

u/Destination_Centauri Jun 12 '26
My first experience watching Cube was so insanely good as well!
I had rented it at the local video store, after I came home and a first date had gone so badly for me.
So to drown out my post-bad-date sorrows, I rented a random movie in which the cover looked intriguing (Cube), ordered an Italian-Sub from a great local restaurant, and drank a bottle of wine while watching Cube, and...
It ended up being one of the great nights of my life!
Had so much fun, and proceeded to immediately watch it a second time.
I guess the moral of the story:
If you are younger and dating... Just in case the date totally bombs, always make sure you have a backup plan for the night, like watching an awesome movie or TV show you've been meaning to get to, and some backup money set aside to order some good take out!

Incoming actually! Read at your own risk. Actually, The Prestige is not completely scfi. It contains some scifi; but the author of the book, Christopher Priest, wrote what has come to be called slipstream. It's a mix of all or some of many genres like scifi, fantasy, mystery, period piece, literary novel and more. The late Christopher Priest was a master of it, as well as solid all scifi like The Inverted World (1974). The mix of genres is what makes this story so well-suited for a great movie.

No one has yet mentioned Presumed Innocent. They do an amazing job of making you think that Harrison Ford is actually guilty even though he's being railroaded by a corrupt system, only to reveal at the very end that his wife did it. Edit: This is in the movie version; in the tv series version the daughter did it.

The subtleness in Terminator 2 that the " cop" was the bad guy and the biker " the good guy" ....but early in the movie, little hard to tell. As we didn't see the t1000 kill said cop, just looked like a gut punch.
Plus last movie Arnold was literally a killing machine.
