To start off, I picked a non-fiction book that discusses the philosophical elements present in many Sci-Fi films. My interest was piqued from a recent online interview with the author here .
An excellent review of the book can be found here . Originally the book was under a different title, but it has since been reissued courtesy of St. Martin's Griffin.

“The book takes the novel approach of explaining some of the basic ‘big’ problems of philosophy via some of Hollywood’s biggest sci fi smashes,” the reviewer mentions.
So check this book out for yourself, (visit Amazon for more details, as well as the interview with Rowlands here ).
