  • Comrade, I rented that movie from a locally-owned VHS rental shop that used physical membership cards.

    Sure it’s a dystopia, but it’s a dystopia where they solved too many problems. John Spartan gets into a high speed car crash and his car instantly fills up with safety foam and he’s completely unharmed. The police force is ethnically and gender diverse. Guns are museum pieces. The cops don’t know HOW to assault somebody.

    Sure they’ve killed a large amount of choice, and the guy in charge of it all seems to be determined to secure even more power for himself because of course he’s a sociopath with Mr. Rogers’ speech patterns, but all told I’d much rather live in the Demolition Man future than Judge Dredd or Death Race 2000.













  • I think of it being like how a pro golfer does like a dozen things in the split second it takes them to swing a gold club, and they all have to be perfectly coordinated, but they really don’t think of each and every little movement in sequence as it happens.
