Kino that needs to be released in 4K without the James Cameron DNR bullshit that he's been doing with the T2 and True Lies 4k releases
>we currently live in a cyberpunk dystopia
Seems they were onto something
They were right. People walk around with their eyes glued to a little screen or looking off into space with a pair of goggles on their face. Meanwhile the world around them is dirty and filled with trash. homeless people line the streets. Drugs are everywhere leading to some standing around like zombies. Assaults are rampant. Children are being mutilated and used. Money is worth less day by day. And politicians say everything is alright, ignore the wars, the famine and the general malaise
That movie was soft in comparison
Not all of us are Americans m8.
If you think I was talking about America you haven't looked outside your own window, m8
Europe likes to larp that the are different from USA / the west. In reality Europe is even more controlled by the globalists and are a few years ahead of USA in their self destruction.
>Every big city a shithole
>Hundreds of billions given to foreign countries to play war while USA degrades
>Fake elections to keep fricking up shithole cities
>Major political party inviting the 3rd world to make USA 3rd world and getting ready to deploy them into the military so they can put a boot to the throat of America
You forgot the part where people form their worldview entirely in cyberspace
Damn. I just got literal chills.
>never heard of this
>Bigelow
any good?
If you like cyberpunk it's a must-watch, it's decent for the most part.
its a detective-noir in a cyberpunk setting and yes its kino
Cinemaphile forgot about it until i started suggesting it a couple years ago in every cyberpunk thread and any mention of juliette lewis, now the kino is back on the menu.
its great because its concise, well written, well-defined characters in a breathing believable world (because its not that big a jump from post-Rodney King riots mid-90s). the female toughs are kinda wut but whatever they have one fight together.
other 90s cyberpunk ... 13th Floor, ExistenZ
noir and cyberpunk go together so well
At the very least it looks amazing on a big screen
It's a good movie and I love how it portrays police. Beating the frick out of random people until some big shot arrests the cops running around killing everyone. Very similiar to the justice system today if you compare it to the legal system for the elite ruling class
things moved much faster during the 80's and 90's than they do now
If this film was about zoomers, they'd call it: "Strange Gays"
I watch this movie once every year. It's supreme '90s kino.
>Turns out it was closer to 20.
anybody seen Zone 414?
>Set in the near future, private detective David Carmichael is hired by Marlon Veidt, an eccentric businessman, to track down his missing daughter. David teams up with Jane, a highly advanced A.I. to solve the mystery.
>cyberpunk dystopia
Well, they did get the dystopia part right.
apart from the VR headset what made it different from regular 1999?
It's a good movie.
This is unwatchable. Absolutely pretentious crap trying to look cool and sophisticated and just failing. It's like a 15yo boy wrote the script.
>boomers really thought it would take 500 years for humanity to become crippilingly stupid
they should've only froze luke wilson for like five years tops
This movie was so fricking frustrating. All of the elements are there for something timeless and exciting, but the script was just awful. The noir story beats felt so heavy handed and trod over what could've been a far more interesting thriller about police corruption and individualized surveillance/the morality of uninhibited access to information. Instead it's a really forced love triangle, character arcs that don't culminate satisfactorily in the service of an annoying twist, and all culminates in an incredibly corny deus ex (we're supposed to believe that giving the only copy of a police murder video to a "pure" police commissioner would be a good idea). It feels like it should be two different movies set in the same world, it doesn't accomplish either well
the movie is pretty accurate when you boil it down to video addiction. reliving happy memories isn't that much different than from scrolling algo-selected tiktok screamers. both make you placid, and our dystopia is worse since it's much less obvious and much more pervasive.
