BTW, next month’s Genre has been chosen by Becky of Film Music Central. We will be reviewing our favorite Cyberpunk Movies.
According to Wikipedia –
Cyberpunk is a subgenre of science fiction in a future setting that tends to focus on society as “high tech low life” featuring advanced technological and scientific achievements, such as information technology and cybernetics, juxtaposed with a degree of breakdown or radical change in the social order.
Please get me your submissions by the 25th of Dec by sending them to cyberpunkbecky@movierob.net
Try to think out of the box! Great choice Becky!
Since we are exactly 89 days before the 89th Annual Oscars on the 26th Feb, I decided to start two new series to coincide with the countdown to what will hopefully be a historic night.
More details on those two series will come out later today.
Keep an eye out for them!
Thanks again to one and all for your participation in all that I do here on this site! Without you all, I wouldn’t be able to accomplish all that I have been able to over the past few years.
-Rob
