I just finished Blade Runner and I don't really know what to feel, it may be aesthetically one of my favourite films. Is there a /tv/ approved list of cyberpunk-core?
>>
Don't bother.

You just watched the best. Nothing comes close.

Really? I was hoping Blade Runner didn't set the standard for cyberpunk films.
>>
>>67969331
Your best bet with actual good cyberpunk is anime.
-Ghost in the Shell 1-2
-Battle Angel Alita
-Armitage III
-Bubblegum Crisis

Are you serious nigger? Try to name another cyber punk movie that a normie has heard of? It is the only cyber punk movie. It's also a top 10 movie so there's that.

Just be happy they haven't remade it yet with that moron from parks and recs yet.
>>
There is only Blade Runner.
...until Blade Runner 2.
>>
>>67969331
Johnny Mnemonic I suppose. But it's a full-on 90's movie.

Nothing really tops Blade Runner in film. You could go to video games or anime and other places for good stuff like Ghost in the Shell or Deus Ex

Tron Legacy is the only thing that comes to mind. Total Recall remake if you're desperate.

Hahaha this.

Blade Runner benefits from multiple watches also. My first watching I thought it was nothing special, the second time it became my favourite movie.

Acting is shit but it has some pretty neat practical effects and aesthetics.

The only way this could fail is with extreme (and incompetent) executive meddling.

If the goal is to make a good movie, it will likely be that. If the goal is to earn as much money as possible by cashing in on Blade Runner hype than there's a good chance it will be shit. Which studio is producing it?

We got Dave Bautista onboard as well, he'll probably inhabit the same type of role as Leon.

OG Terminator is probably a better example than 4.

This, true cyberpunk coming through
>Hardware
>Tetsuo the Iron Man
>Burst City
>Death Powder
>The Red Spectacles
>Genocyber
>964 Pinocchio
If you want the true punk experience in science-fiction film form those are some real options.

Alternatively OP, if you just dug Blade Runners aesthetics and/or story themes I'd recommend looking into
>Altered States
>Thief
>Beyond the Black Rainbow
>THX1138
>Ghost in the Shell
>Ghost in the Shell 2: Innocence
>Mamoru Oshii's Kerberos trilogy

There isnt sadly.

Read Philip K. Dick's novels. Thats the best I can do.

Strange Days is alright and sort of fits.

I'm not trying to be an edgy contrarian here, but in this case, the more popular it is, the worse it will most likely be

I think if you're looking for a film with similar aesthetics this is the list you actually want: https://rateyourmusic.com/list/Wlliam_of_Baskerville/neon_lit_films/

The movies are good for Mamoru Oshii + Kenji Kawaii, if you watch the two movies and decide that you like GitS so much you want more even without absolute top-notch direction and scoring thdn I'd recommend the show (made after the movies, emulates their style) or the manga (more its own thing distinct from what Oshii turned it into. )

PKD isn't that cyberpunk, his writing is more like Robert Anton Wilson combined with genre pulp than cyberpunk.

I honestly think that Thomas Pynchon might be the most cyberpunk writer, his intentional subversion of all that we consider right and normal combined with the anarchic and anti-dehumanization themes that are found throughout his work are punk as hell.

I honestly don't understand studios. Only wannabe film nerds care about Blade Runner. Its too boring for general audiences. The studios are really running out of IPs if they're now trying to cash in on Blade Runner of all things. I'm excited because I love the original and everyone involved with this new one, but I highly doubt the film will be a smash hit unless its marketed as a sci fi action flick.
>>
>>67969331

I just love when new generations discover the great films of the past, not conforming only to the garbage Nolan and Snyder make.

Now, kōhai, go and watch Altman and Polanski, and move on.
>>
>>67974395
>The studios are really running out of IPs
Have there been any new original IPs that have spawned franchises? Adaptations like the Hunger Games and the MCU don't count. I'm talking about completely original IPs like Star Wars and Indiana Jones in the past.
>>

>I highly doubt the film will be a smash hit unless its marketed as a sci fi action flick.

m8 I'm soo soo sorry to be the one to have to tell you this. They're not just going to market it as a sci-fi action flick, they're going to turn it into one.
>>
>>67974694
I trust Villeneuve. Doesn't seem like he's interested in making traditional action-packed normie films.
>>

Did you even watch Blade Runner?

>>67975117
Are you claiming Blade Runner is an action packed normie film?
>>
>>67975166
Oh fuck, I misread your original post.

You won't find much worthwhile cyberpunk outside of literature but you can give some nip shit a try. Surprisingly, they're the best in faithfully bringing the movement's spirit into the visual media, while also doing their own thing to avoid ending up as derivative shit.

Go for Tetsuo: the Ironman, Serial Experiments Lain, or Akira.
