Science Fiction Videos
Thanks to the video iPod, videos are now today's coolest thing (or was that yesterday's?) So I decided to go in search of Science Fiction videos. Not much joy I'm afraid.
I searched for all combinations of SF and found...
delicious has two videos tagged in scifi but does have an rss feed for every search which is nice.
Google has loads of stuff but too much fluff. Presumably it's including every video that mentions the words (lots of news shows).
Yahoo has more or less the same as Google.
And finally iTunes Music Store has nothing (but lots of audiobooks), however it does have Thriller, for you er... horror fans. I've been trying to think of SF themed rock videos, surely there must be some, but can't think of any.
UPDATE
Eoghann suggested checking out the Internet Archive, which I completely forgot about. A search for Science Fiction returns 36 things, many of which are homemade films like ONE : A Space Odyssey (a one minute Lego version of 2001). A search for Sci-Fi returns 65 items, including old Buster Crabbe episodes of Flash Gordon! Awesome.
Have you tried searching the Internet Archive's Movie Archive?

I know they have some old out of copyright science fiction stuff and they may well have some open source sci-fi videos too.
They have Flash Gordon episodes on the Internet Archive? Oh that is too cool. I did a series of posts about Flash Gordon a few weeks back, I'll need to update them with links to that.
