I guess I just prefer average-good sci-fi over good-great of most other genres. Not that picky if I can suspend disbelief for an hour or so. I enjoyed Avatar, even if it was a mirror of Dances with Wolves. I've never seen Dances, so why would I care. If I'm too critical about movies in my favorite genre, I'll end up spending more time being disappointed by what I'm supposed to be enjoying. No thanks. Why bother at that point?
I absolutely hate reality TV. Hate is probably too weak a description. So I don't watch it. Ever. That said, I will watch the shit out the Mars One astronaut selection stuff and anything else they do.
Europa Report was a fantastic movie until the shift. It was still good after that, but it was just kinda weird. But the first hour of that movie was still awesome.
I haven't seen Inception yet. It's on the list.
