Another movie list!

Top 50 Dystopian Movies of All Time!

Wa-hey!! Time to start queueing up some torrents :) Surprisingly, I've already watched the #1 on the list: Metropolis (1927). It was recommended to me by another film buff. It's a silent movie ahead of its time. Sadly, I kept falling asleep and only made it halfway before I gave up. Yes. I know. Short attention span :P


At #2 is A Clockwork Orange! WHICH, btw, I am going to get to see on the BIG SCREEN in a couple of weeks :D After that, I'm just waiting for the day The Shining gets a chance on the big screen again... *fingers crossed*

For all those Blade Runner fans, good news for you.

people who bothered to read the book told me that gang members have used words from different languages (most of them look to be slavic - serbian/croatian in particular). eg.
droog => drug => commrade/friend
mesto => place
britva => sharp knife/razor
Bog => God

another fact about the movie is that car featured in it is a real car - it's called adams probe. it's roofline is only 70cm of the ground
