Science fiction is a crowded genre, and some of its greatest titles are buried under layers of remakes, reboots, and homages.

Now things have come full circle, as Foundation is in the middle of a bold adaptation on Apple TV . It's the perfect binge-watch for fans of Star Trek, Star Wars, and other popular sci-fi, as you can simultaneously see the roots of many core ideas for the genre in Foundation , while also seeing the modern influence imposed on it now.
