There is NOTHING more cyberpunk than the poolcleaner. I defeated the lawnmower man. I hack portals supported with transdimensional resonators EVERY FREAKIN DAY, man. It should be MINE. There could be no more fitting a prize than a step closer to my next badge in a nihilistic world where I am born and reborn, slowly breaking down the sequences of my cyber existence with each... copy.

Lawnmower man called - he wants his kite back

Wow, impressive. This is another step forward in the virtual reality we expected to see decades ago (after seeing the Lawnmower Man and other VR-themed sci-fi, peaking with the Matrix.) This tech along with Oculus Rift will put people inside their avatars.

I didn't see the actor really shaking his jowls or showing his face reactive to gravity, which is a big part of what current CGI lacks. He probably wasn't allowed in case the headset broke, although I'm not fully aware if its role in the demo. I also wonder where the texture on the poly came from. It looks to be a good match for his face, but it wasn't real-time.

Fantastic sift!

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

I can't believe how long it's taking reality to catch up with our '90s cyberpunk dreams. It's 2013! I was supposed to be flying through the metascape like the Lawnmower Man by now.

Cool. My grandparents just turned into the Lawnmower Man.

Boy was waking up next to her the next morning awkward...

No wai. Wakin' up next to a cougar is the best. It's like waking up on Christmas morning next to your mom. Yay, presents!!
Plus, there's usually a bomb-ass breakfast waiting for you, too.

He's a pool cleaner, he should know.


He ain't got shit on a cable repair man or a lawnmower man.

When I had a 286 I thought it was the shit man.

Hackers is classic geek cheese. Like Tron and Lawnmower Man.

I used to tell my girlfriend I wanted to do her in VR to make it more real. Hahah.

Outland (another Sean Connery one)
The Wraith
Freejack
The Lawnmower Man (there’s a sequel, but I haven’t seen it)
Cube, Cube 2, or Cube Zero
Mission to Mars
Fantastic Voyage (classic!)

And if you want to see the most ridiculed, according to Insultingly Stupid Movie Physics (click "Movie Reviews" on the left), watch The Core.
You can probably find some other sci-fi titles there to enjoy also.

p.s. another vote for Time After Time, also a growing-up favorite of mine. When I see/hear Jack the Ripper I always think David Warner.

see, there was this movie called Lawnmower Man.
it was all about Virtual Reality and THE FUTURE. You see, Vitrual Reality could magically make a retart into an evil super genius who becomes one with the computer netwroks in cyberspace.
Thsi movie was a box office smash in 1992.
seriously.
