I don’t have the words to articulate my contempt for the idiot shouting “what?! What?! What the fuck?!” Just know that it is visceral…
I don’t call bazingas bazingas lightly.
uhhhhhh, is it just me, or did it look very much like they intended to drive up the hill, realized they couldn’t make that incredibly shallow grade, then parked and got out?
they did this at night because in bright daylight surrounded by modern american decay this thing is going to look even worse
We’re under attack by time-travelling cop movies from 1993.
TFW don’t know how to use the three seashells
Um, actually, I think the reference was to Timecop, not Demolition Man. Demolition Man doesn’t even technically feature time travel, and…
John Demolition Man was put in tech magic cryofreeze while taught how to knit, so the passed time was subjectively compressed for him which is sort of like a personal going-forward time travel experience.
Sorry, but you need to call him by his proper name, John Spartan, not to be confused with the other Spartan John.
That and John Commando’s name being John Matrix will never stop being amusing to me.
There’s probably an alternate universe where Keanu plays a character called Johnny Matrix.
The name “John Spartan” is so on the nose that John Demolition Man was a kindness to say.
I love Demolition man so much.
The resistance was Dennis Leary living in an abandoned sewer system because life on the surface was too… peaceful, clean, utopian, and free of suffering? It’s so American. "Those fuckers solved all of society’s problems and now no one goes hungry and everything is great! I’m so mad about it i’m going to go live in my own shit!
10/10 one of the better 90s sci fi films.
I could headcanon that Apple Campus City was a lot more brutishly tyrranical than Dennis Leary’s exposition made it out to be, only because I know and have known how fucked up and brutishly tyrranical techbros are once they get a crumb of power and that place screamed techbros.
Maybe the headcanon doesn’t hold up because if ’s “Snail City” (yeah he tried to astroturf that meme into existence) took off and became a city-state, it’d have the opposite of swear ticket machines and expect everyone to be “based” and say slurs when prompted to prove they weren’t “DEI.”
“They called him the Demolition Man” is an “I’m so tired of all these Star Wars” tier title drop too, I just have to respect that.
My favorite part was when he said “IT’S DEMOLITION TIME” and demolitioned that big cryo prison.
Meme aside, the movie was actually a lot of fun and felt an awful lot like a prophecy of what Apple “campuses” would look like and what kind of fucked up gentrification they’d promote.
Any resemblance to the actual upcoming future purely coincidental.
The Drej of the Drej Tank have decided to just stand back and enjoy these narcissistic nerd chariots failing in clownish ways and taking some of the worst humans with them.
Good thing US roads are all completely flat and perfectly maintained, and US drivers are always driving perfectly, this thing might have problems otherwise.
Techbros really enjoy ignoring the lived experienced world when planning their feverish science fantasies.
