Rhapsodies

Recently, I was re-reading William Gibson’s collection of short stories, burning from. Burning Chrome introduces Gibson sprawl setting period the setting that provides the background for such box as new romancer period it also provides a source material for one of the disaster is a science fiction film, Johnny Mnemonic period while I was reading burning chrome, I found out that Johnny Mnemonic wasn’t the only short story from the collection that was made into a film period so I went to scrape the barrel and see if there were any other good cyberpunk films that I had not seen yet.  

The film adaptation was New Rose Hotel. This tells the story of Fox and X played by Christopher Walken and William Dafoe to “extraction experts” and specialize in relocating scientists from corporations. Their current target is a scientist named Rosie. To do this they recruit the beautiful sandy to use as a Honey trap period but in the meantime X falls for her as well period 

This was an adequate adaption plot-wise period unlike a lot of sun cyberpunk films, it focuses on the drama rather than the action period there is absolutely no effort made in the setting itself. The only attempt at making anything looking look futuristic is them waiting period for the most part, the only reason to watch this film is defer when walking in the same film period 

The next film on my list, Hardware , Tells us of a rundown city after an apocalypse period I’ll scavenger fines remains of a killer robot in the desert period he gives it to be scope to girlfriend and of course it comes back to life and reeks havoc period 

Basewomen Judge Dredd shored, this story is probably better than some of the other attendance with bigger budgets period for what that’s worth.  I’ve even heard it as being described as Mega-City one without the judges. Other than that in the tone, though. It’s pretty much just another monster movie.
