This one doesn't claim to be an all inclusive or 'best of'... just a simple, chronological list - but it *does* need updating (hasn't been updated since 08/24/03).
Maybe we could compile a list here & suggest some additions?

Wed, December 5, 2007 - 3:26 PMEven though I love that film, it was a movie I always wanted to see on "Mystery Science Theater 3000". -

Re: Cyberpunk - Movies List
Wed, December 5, 2007 - 5:56 PMI appreciate the fact that Boorman wasn't afraid to make a movie that could induce confusion. It's got some real "WTF" moments, but it's so incredibly stylized that everything fits within its beautifully twisted context.
But as far as MST3K doing it, it's only a matter of time:

Re: Cyberpunk - Movies List
Wed, December 5, 2007 - 10:38 AMok... i have to admit - i might need to see Hedwig again (it's been a long time), but i can't for the life of me figure out why it's on this list??? -

Re: Cyberpunk - Movies List
Wed, December 5, 2007 - 12:41 PM"Hedwig"? WTF?!
What I really hate is when genre lists get too inclusive. It waters down the idea behind the genre and basically makes it worthless. What's the point of calling something "cyberpunk" if anything can be cyberpunk?
That list is filled with such silly inclusions. Every "Planet of the Apes" movie? "Dawn of the Dead"? "Dr. Strangelove?"
How promiscuous. -

The SFAM Top 50 Countdown - Cyberpunk Movies
Wed, December 5, 2007 - 8:46 PMIt was for some Cyberpunk class... I'm not sure if every film on the list was specifically considered cyberpunk or not now - maybe they just threw some in there for other discussion or comparison reasons? not sure...
I posted a duplicate of this thread on another server and got this response:

Re: The SFAM Top 50 Countdown - Cyberpunk Movies
Mon, January 21, 2008 - 4:43 PMokay, i'll bite...
is it a kid's flick because it's animated, or because you didn't get it? -

Re: The SFAM Top 50 Countdown - Cyberpunk Movies
Mon, January 21, 2008 - 4:50 PMFrom how the film was originally explained to me, I thought it was in the same genre as "Spirited Away" or "Howls Moving Castle". -

This is the maximum depth. Additional responses will not be threaded.
Re: The SFAM Top 50 Countdown - Cyberpunk Movies
Mon, January 21, 2008 - 9:14 PMSatoshi Kon definitely makes films for adults. In addition to "Paprika," his other movies, like the brilliant "Millennium Actress" and "Tokyo Godfathers," are deep stories with well-developed themes powerful symbols. Kids wouldn't get 'em, but smart teenagers could appreciate them. Miyazaki's genius, on the other hand, is making kids' films that adults love (I own most of them). -
