My friends and I would just sit around drink and watch StarWars. There was no organized drinking game but there was a hell of a lot of arguments and quoting.

@OW-Holmes, the housekeeper.: You could take a drink every time the characters say something that could be a double-entendre.

But you'd probably pass out before they even got to "Pull up, Porkins!"

It isn't SciFi at all, but my favorite drinking game was always the one for the animated version of How The Grinch Stole Christmas.

The only rule is that you had to take a drink any time anyone said the word "who."

It's really just a fancy way to commit suicide by alcohol poisoning.

You know, I pride myself on writing creative drinking games, but I haven't done many for sci-fi. Usually more for events. But I have got:

Drinking game for Harry Potter 7 [written before the release] - [sometimeslizwrites.blogspot.com]

and, a bit more esoteric but may entertain some:

Drinking game for JK Rowling's 2008 Harvard commencement address - [sometimeslizwrites.blogspot.com]

What about the Blakes 7 drinking game?

* Drink every time Avon makes a snide comment. (or if you want to survive the night... drink every time Avon says something that ISN'T a snide comment)

* Drink every time Orac refuses to help the crew because his circuits are busy, possessed, or he just plain doesn't feel like it.

* Drink every time you spot a recycled Doctor Who prop.

* Drink every time the Liberator crew have their teleport bracelets confiscated or otherwise rendered inoperative.

* Take a shot for every ship The Federation sends against the Liberator. (usually doesn't exceed 3)

* Down the bottle every time somebody calls Servalan a "sexy bitch"

@bluehinter: And one for every time that Blake ignores the fact that Avon will one day kill him.

@okeribok: Only if for seasons 3 & 4 you take a drink every time they namecheck Blake, and comment on how incredible a leader he was or how he's the only person that could ever bring the resistance together.

Oh, and you can also take a drink every time you spot a costume that features metal studs or diamond-shaped quilting.

@bluehinter: Tangentally, you can also play the Winter Olympics Figure Skating drinking game, where you take a shot every time a team shows up wearing an outfit that looks like it came straight off the set of Blakes 7 or Doctor Who:

and Tarrant for the win...

1) There's no rule listed for the Batman game

2) 300 isn't science fiction or even fantasy

3) If you're gonna list 300, you might as well include Troy because gods were supposed to be in that one and my rules for the Troy drinking game are thus: Anytime any character speaks of how their place in history or through the ages, you have to take a drink. Your first will actually occur in the friggin' pre-credit narration.

@NotArthurPDragon: the 300 is absolutly fantasy. fantasy inspired by histioric events maybe, but fantasy none the less.

Troy drinking game rule:
any time the camera does a cutaway reaction shot to peter o'tool you have to take a drink.

So, do they mean leading man's real name or name in the movie? If it's realy name then you could drink during the movies Sting has done.

Also to include: The Star Trek TNG drinking game, whose best rule, I think, is when a problem is solved by reconfiguring the main deflector.

@braak: i'd have to go with: 'a crew memeber explains a complex solution to a persistant problem by using a simple analogy.'

The SciFi Original's drinking game is backwards. First you should get drunk, then watch the SciFi Original Movie.

Likelihood of Intoxication: 100%

Likelihood of SciFi Movie Enjoyment: Extremely High.

@Log1c: Yes, I have found that to be the best way to enjoy the SciFi Original Movies. I think the only times my boyfriend and I watched entire movies was with the aid of alcohol.

@gertymac: Those are definitely the only two you need to get totally plastered.

I'm pretty sure following the 'drink every time the sonic screwdriver is used like a magic wand' rule would kill you.

I have definitely done one for Heroes. That one left me incapacitated for a week.

I also did one for Twilight. I'm still recovering.
