Matrix had a lot of interesting themes, fun world and characters you remember.

Blade Runner is just a B-list action movie that happens to be very pretty visually.

I don't remember any character from blade runner except Harrison Ford being a walking trope, and Anthony Hopkins being a Xx_Psyc0tic_kiLl3r_xX

In Matrix you have your Neo, your agent Smith, your old cookie baking grandma, Trinity, Mouse, Morpheus, that guy who betrays them...a shit ton of kino scenes too.

Your horrid opinion does not constitute fact. "Boring ass" is about as valid a criticism as "It's fun and I liked it" being valid praise. If you can't form a coherent argument other than spewing baseless buzzwords amounting to inherent emotional response, don't bother replying to me again.

It's surprisingly long and can be a little hard if you just try charging in the front. Best to go around to the docks, grab all the sweet loot (sunken ship fuck yea) then sneak in the back by climbing some stacked shipping containers.

As someone who hates anime and everything it stands for, I still got to say Lain. It's one of the only 2 or 3 good anime. It's simply incredible. Would have probably been better as a flim than a TV series, but it's still a masterpiece as is.

Great book, better than the "adaptation".
Pretty late 60s New Wave Science Fiction though.
>>
>>82540682
Because the genre is based around the idea that the internet was exclusive. The internet was something the elite had access to. It was the domain of banks and corporations, or daring hackers trying to illegally break into the realm of the powerful. They didn't account for the net becoming as pervasive as it did.

Not always. Cyberspace was often portrayed as the wild west both the megacorps and the common man had access to with the later having power to damage or break down the former with l33t ICEbreaking skills. So, pretty much like it is today, only with more cryptic VR imagery and meddling A.I.s.
>>
>>82542181
But "wild west" implies mystery and danger. The internet has no mystery anymore. The internet has been reduced to Facebook, Google, Youtube, and your social media site/blogs of choice. It is controlled. It is mundane. It's no longer about daring pioneers, it's about your grandma posting pictures of her dog on Facebook.
>>
>>82542505
>The internet has no mystery anymore.
You lack imagination.

>It is controlled. It is mundane.
On the surface perhaps, but then again we ain't hackers that live on the darkweb conspiring to take down megacorps or goverments or getting rich off of ransomeware. If anything, the west is wilder these days than ever before.
