Johnny Mnemonic, which I am apparently alone in spelling properly, is my favorite terrible movie. It's bad, but it's really fun bad and the nineties industrial soundtrack is perfect for it. Everyone should see it at least once.

It has a cybernetic dolphin fighting a cybernetic Dolph Lundgren, thus by definition it cannot be the worst sci-fi movie

Johnny Mnemonic is a masterpiece and a thousand times better than The Matrix and I will kill the families of anyone who says different.

A golden helix streaked skyward from the Helvault. A thunderous explosion shattered the silver monolith and Avacyn emerged, free from her prison at last.

If that's not your cup of tea, we've also got “The Making of Johnny Mnemonic."

If you ever forget about Johnny Mnemonic, use this helpful mnemonic device: the name of the movie is "Johnny Mnemonic".

E: if he forgets his scarf in the winter, he becomes Johnny Pneumonic.

Pick, you're a lil older than most of the goons here. Did you ever read "Vampirella," and if so, how was it different from other "lady soldier" themed sci-fi? I've been meaning to get a critique on it for a lil while since the title is now in my name but I didn't work on it during the Warren Publishing era at all.


wtf am I actually?? I'm 31 I think that's a normal goon age?

My question for you and/or your mom is, what makes good sci-fi and what distinguishes it from bad sci-fi?

On a related note, to the question above, does your mom care about the distinction between hard sci-fi and soft sci-fi?

Do you and your mom like competing franchises? Like you're way into trek and hate star wars but your mom can't stand trek and prefers star wars?

Because that poo poo just screams, "sitcom!"

I think you know the answer to that.

Best film that took place in the future but now technically talks place today/in the past?

Also goung back to yhe Johnjy Mmemonic chat the flim would have been ten times better if it starred Nicolas Cage.
Just imagine him giving the room service speech.
