List of Cyberpunk/shadowrun related movies?
« on: October 26, 2007, 04:04:59 PM »
Hey guys, I've recently come to the conclusion that my DVD/VHS collection is just too fragging small.  I'd like some help in compiling a list of cyberpunk and or shadowrun-ish related movies to fill my DVD bookcase with.

My start follows:

Johnny Mnemonic
Blade Runner
Ronin
Heat
The Matrix (first movie only, I was happy with it, why couldn't the W brothers be too)

Minority Report
A Scanner Darkly
Akira *
A Clockwork Orange
Freejack
The Fifth Element *
Gattaca
Ghost in the Shell *
La Femme Nikita (the movie, not the show)
Lawnmower Man (kind of, but not really)
Mad Max Movies
Robocop
Sneakers
Soylent Green *
Strange Days
Total Recall *
Wargames

*= movies that have major Shadowrun and cyberpunk elements, but aren't technically Shadowrun. Mostly far-future stuff.

Oh Please! If we all have to start appoligizing for redundancy, well then I think we may as well all bring out the self-flagilation right now. ;) In other words, don't worry about it Gilliam, we've all done it many, many times.

Depends on what you're looking for.

The whole deal, or parts, like, say... the feel?

But yeah, I do suggest you follow the link Ingo so kindly provided.

Aside from the central 'baby' plotline of children of men, the entire movie was an excellent version of a shadowrun- you have to trust people you don't really know, people you do know get hurt, and eventually it'll get you killed.

I loved the scene where he's in the building, and the tank and soldiers are attacking it, and then suddenly everyone stops fighting because they hear a baby crying.

It's not technically a movie, but the show Supernatural has a very Shadowrun feel to it (and deals a lot with magic and spirits)

Ah, the movie that endeared Kurt Russell to a generation.
