Blade Runner is also great, but truth be told, sci-fi in general (and cyberpunk in particular) is pretty poorly represented in most mainstream film+tv media. What with prospective Hollywood adaptations like Neuromancer, Forever War, Battle Angel Alita, GitS, etc. etc. that'll hopefully change for the better. Wait, who am I kidding?  If you liked Neuromancer, definitely check out Snow Crash, and with a more modern flavour, Rainbows End. | ||

The story is simplistic, the characters are transparent (specially the hero), the dialogues seem to have been written by me when I was 11, the visuals get boring really fast (GITS' ones are WAY better), the final twist leaves no room for any interpretation, it is just a lame moral shit that is SO expected...and the thing is it's French, I'd like to defend it in any way but I fucking can't. Hehe, reading this from a frenchman made me giggle  Just watched War Games again because of this thread - Not at all as impressive as I remember it - But it raises a relevant discussion. EDIT - Oh, and btw - I am not really 100% sharp on what exactly defines a Cyperpunk movie - Gathering from what I've seen so far, I would like to throw in the Firefly serie. Unfortunately, it not a big succes and was canceled after only 1 season (Plus the movie, Serenity). If you like the Starcraft-theme of cowboys/rednecks in space, that serie is definetly one for you | ||

Still no one mentioned Equilibrium? But is it cyberpunk? If we're including this, toss in 1984 too. ^_^ | ||

A Scanner Darkly/Dark City are probably the best films, but for "got me into the whole thing", Akira/GITS. Still love the original GITS movie, so good for it's time. | ||

hands down the best; the first too for dome if you don't count metropolis; bladerunner did more for the cyberpunk genre than any other.. my personal favorite will always be THX-1138 but arguably some will consider include it pre-cyberpunk anyway this thread is owned by this site: http://cyberpunkreview.com/ hope it helps tl cp fans ~ | ||

if you haven't seen it before, its an extremely dark (think David Lynch multiply by 10), cyberpunk japanese movies, its pretty disturbing at times but a pretty good film imo.. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0096251/ ![[image loading]](http://asian-horror.benitronic.com/images/tetsuo-the-iron-man/tetsuo-the-iron-man-cover-1.jpg) | ||
