Most cyberpunk movies zig and zag between the conventional space of sci-fi entertainment. It’s incredibly visual, action packed and dances around some sort of socio-political message. But there isn’t a single cyberpunk film that gets to the root of the human condition more than Spike Jonze’ romantic film Her.

From a hacker chasing the white rabbit to being a savior of all humankind, The Matrix Revolutions completes the modern action fairy tale. Combining new film technologies with new filmmaking techniques, Lilly and Lana Wachowski finished their amazing feat with The Matrix Revolutions.

The Matrix Reloaded is one of the few films that completely validate a nerd’s taste in film. This is the second film in one of the most epic, fascinating and original trilogies in modern cinema. It was brought to life by the incredibly talented Lana and Lily Wachowski. In the first Matrix film, they created new camera techniques and changed how Hollywood made action movies. From that base, they built upon a most excellent sequel.

Come on! There’s no way you really haven’t seen The Matrix. This is one of the best, mainstream transhumanist movie series in modern cinema. It touches on many of the core concepts of cyberpunk ideology, has some awesome fight scenes and one of the most memorable lines in all of film: “I know Kung Fu”.

Well… we made it. 2020 is in the past. There was a pandemic, the virus. It is convenient to smirk and disengage, checking out into mind-numbing spaces of withdrawal. Let me click into a new void of internet exploration. Let me drift away into a new season. Three days become three months becomes a year. Do I still pay rent?

A rep from Elecrow, a Hong Kong-based electronics company, reached out to us regarding their latest Kickstarter for the CrowPi2, an all-in-one solution to STEAM education. So, as always, when someone offers to send us something cool in exchange for a fair and frank review, we asked them to provide us with the deluxe model so that we could do more “extensive” and “unusual” testing. And, as always, we were told no.

Things go unexpectedly wrong for a group of crooks when riots break out during a heist. Packing futuristic tech, they make their way to the Artemis and to sanctuary, or so they think.

With the upcoming Netflix series announced, there seems to be a renewed discussion of Cowboy Bebop’s cyberpunk credentials. So, after many recommendations by friends and colleagues, I decided to make the decision for myself. I watched the entire 26-episode series.
