  3. To celebrate "Johnny Mnemonic" turning 29 years old recently, I'm posting about this classic CyberPunk themed film.

    Although interesting, it should be obvious that a thumbnail concealed laser whip that Shinji uses in could pose as much danger to its user as its intended target.

    Also the laser whip clearly inspired the monowire in Cyberpunk 2077.

  4. To celebrate "Johnny Mnemonic" turning 29 years old recently, I'm posting about this classic CyberPunk themed film.

    One of the most unintentionally (or intentionally) funny scenes is between Johnny and Ralfi. Udo Kier chews up the scene here, it's impossible he didn't see Johnny in the mirror before he looked away. Everyone's acting is completely over the top.

  5. To celebrate "Johnny Mnemonic" turning 29 years old recently, I'm posting about this classic CyberPunk themed film.

    Corporate grade encryption displayed in "Johnny Mnemonic" certainly took a different path then what we currently use in the real world.

  6. On this day 29 years ago in 1995, "Johnny Mnemonic" premiered.

    To celebrate, I'll be posting about this classic CyberPunk themed film over the next few days.

    Uploading 160 GB of data certainly looked a little different back when "Johnny Mnemonic" was first released. I guess this is what 2021 looked like in the far distant past of 1995.

  7. The "Confused Breakfast" recently posted an excellent podcast titled "Is Starship Troopers A Good Movie" and it's a solid recommend.

    The podcast if full of noteworthy commentary, particularly, fast forward to 56:40 for a fantastic fan theory regarding humanity's war with the bugs.

  8. I'm continuing to celebrate the birthday of Paul Verhoeven. To that end, I'm yet again posting a video with his signature trademark: Graphic violence punctuated with a liberal use of squibs.

    Today's clip from "Starship Troopers" may not feature squibs per se, but it's violent, and sets the tone for the film. So, enjoy!
