Lockdown Playlist

With so many of us home confined, we should start collecting a movie playlist for 'borg themed entertainment. Some are gonna be obvious, but maybe we discover, or rediscover, a few gems.

So, to start.
Johnny Mnemonic
RoboCop
Chappie

Iron Man 3 (sorta? He injects trackers into his arms to command his suits)
Gattaca
More Transhumanism than specifically 'borg, but Limitless is cool (and underrated, imo, especially the show)

everything else I can think of was already mentioned. so late to this party heh

Some classic anime (mostly) from the golden era? Varying degrees of quality;

  • Parasite Dolls
  • Armitage series
  • Cyber City Oedo
  • Genocyber
  • Neo Tokyo
  • Ergo Proxy

And whilst BLAME! was made into a CGI anime series, I would 300% recommend reading the manga series as well as the mangakaā€™s other works like ā€˜NOiSEā€™ and ā€˜Aposimzā€™ ā€¦ some of the most awesome worlds :ok_hand:

This is recommended way to little in my opinion. It is such a good show.

I went down the rabbit hole tonight, it led me to this.

Their channel has a bunch of thought provoking future ideas. Easy to get lost for a while.
