As covered in this week's Ion Sci-Fi, the Saturn Awards (presented by the Academy of Science-Fiction, Fantasy and Horror Films) have been announced. The results included Best Sci-Fi Film going to Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker and best TV Series going to Star Trek Discovery.

But the results weren't without their controversy. Skywalker only made it into this year's awards because the eligibility period was extended (due to COVID). For All Mankind was judged in the fantasy category. And concerns have been raised that the awards are too oriented to mainstream franchises like Star Wars, Star Trek and Marvel.

In this week's members poll we ask whether they think the Academy got it right. Have your say by voting on the front page of the crew website and find out the results on the next edition of Ion Sci-Fi (Tuesday 9 November from 9pm AEST).
