fave 80s movies?
More you might like
back to the future and blade runner
My fave aesthetic is 80s and 90s technology in scifi movies like I love those old blocky cathode monitors and shitty graphics from like Contact or Alien or even X-Files like I love retro futurism and I love that in the observatory I use sometimes all of the monitors are from the 90s and I feel like I’m Doing More when I’m using all this manual tracking shit and old ass technology as opposed to getting new modern stuff that does everything for you and it would be so much easier but it just feels so much more homey to use outdated stuff
Nike Confirms The Self-Lacing Shoes from Back to the Future Part II Are Now REAL

Bookshelf inserts
hey say that you can’t judge a book by its cover. But what if the cover alone can tell you the whole story? Welcome to the world of book nooks where creativity runs wild!
These hand-made creations will draw you into tiny places of wonder: from the hobbit hole to the Blade Runner-inspired apocalyptic alley or Lord of the Rings-themed door replica equipped with motion sensors.

I made a booknook for a christmas gift, my inspiration was Blade Runner. It’s 11" X 6"
Not only are book nook inserts a fun way to train your creativity muscle, they can also be a solution to making reading great again. A recent study done by Pew Research Center showed that a staggering quarter of American adults don’t read books in any shape or form. The same study suggested that the likelihood of reading was directly linked to wealth and educational level. Add high levels of modern insomnia and full-time employment that leaves many of us drained at the end of the day, and the idea of opening a book seems unappealing, to say the least.
Now imagine yourself walking past a bookshelf full of these mini worlds—the dioramas of an alley. They catch your attention and you cannot help but see what’s inside. The pioneer of the book nook concept is the Japanese artist Monde. Monde introduced his creations to the Design Festa in 2018 and received overwhelming feedback. 178K likes on twitter later, Monde has become an inspiration to the aspiring arts and crafts lovers who join on r/booknooks to share their spectacular ideas.

I love this so much, thank you!😊❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I got around to synchronizing The Wizard of Oz with Dark Side of the Moon and it really is crazy how well they match up
One of the people who first wrote about Dark Side and Oz marching up also said that Wish You Were Here (also Pink Floyd) syncs to Blade Runner so I’m starting that now and so far it really goes well together
Paul Blart Mall Cop also syncs with Dark Side and it’s the god tier experience
I’m saving that one until I’m high because something tells me it will enhance the experience into the astral plane

If we lived in some cyber futuristic future movie where Alexa became an independent robot I'd totally ship you too. You'd be the endgame of the movie after fighting the government and getting equal rights for robot ai advanced enough to self govern.

According to architect Vincent Callebaut, the Paris of 2050 could look very different from the city we know today. The architect recently unveiled plans to transform the metropolis into a futuristic “smart” city.
I can definitely get onboard for a future where cities look like this.
The thing I hate most about writing futuristic fiction is that you can never truly create genuine dialogue.
The general lexicon is obviously going to be vastly different than today’s. I really, really doubt you’ll hear a 500-years-in-the-future person say “Puttin’ that bitch on blast”. And if you were to say “ur p much a pissbaby sjw lmao” they’d have no earthly idea what you were saying.
But making up possible slang / vocabulary / expressions is nearly impossible because 1. It’ll probably sound stupid and 2. Readers don’t know what you’re saying. You can’t put “It’s easy as shooting Gammadrydes in a supply vessel.” Because, while its an obvious rehash of “It’s easy as shooting fish in a barrel”, it sounds stupid. On the other hand, you can’t say something like “Oh he’s trying to go all Terra 452 on us!” Because, while its a perfectly feasible expression, it makes no since to the readers.
Basically I’m frustrated because EVOLVING LANGUAGE IS HARD
