Lemmy needs more content that isn’t about US politics right now so I’m making a random post.

What’s the most obscure cyberpunk movie you’ve seen? Name a cyberpunk movie you don’t think anyone else has heard of.

I’m not saying you have to think it’s a good movie (or that you even like it), I just want to discuss obscure, unknown cyberpunk movies. Come on, let’s talk about something other than politics here.

    I think his first appearance was actually in a made for TV movie, but also Max Headroom is far from obscure. Still good though.

      Actually, this is an interesting one to me… Max Headroom was everywhere in the 80s (even in coke commercials) and yet his popularity dropped off so quickly, it wouldn’t surprise me if most people born after the 80s would never have even heard of him. If you didn’t grow up with Max Headroom, I don’t know how you would find out about him today. Definitely a product of the time.

        That’s actually fair, it is weird how he was such a huge part of the cultural zeitgeist and then wasn’t. Kinda like Ronald Mcdonald…
