    I just saw a Gen Z film reviewer on TikTok criticising Demolition Man for the amount of societal change that it depicts happening in just 36 years and I don't think they've factored in just how different 1993 (the year the movie came out) was from 1957.

    Watched the 1995 cheeseball cyberpunk flick Johnny Mnemonic. It's a cornball classic, and is sort of like Demolition Man meets the 90s Super Mario Bros. movie. Reeves' acting is... interesting lol Overall it's a fun time if you just enjoy the silliness. Made me want to play Cyberpunk 2077 again lol

    I recall a biology teacher in high school, a self identified science fiction enthusiast, who scoffed when he noticed me reading Bester’s THE DEMOLISHED MAN. “Have you read it?” I asked. “No. I saw the movie.” Demolition Man. He thought I was reading the novelization of Stallone’s Demolition Man.

    This awful movie isn't a national security film. It is THE national security film. It's one of those dumb films that accidentally stumbled into multiple prophetic insights, like Demolition Man. The big thing everyone already knows Toys got right was drones, but it called a LOT of things.

    Look, I'm just gonna say it: Demolition Man is an extremely underappreciated film in general, and *completely* unappreciated as a cyberpunk film in particular. It's also truly one of the great satires from top to bottom. If you like RoboCop and/or Idiocracy, Demolition Man feels like a natural fit.

    One of my favorite parts of the the 1993 film "Demolition Man" is at the end when Sylvester Stallone asks in reference to the toilet system: "How's that damn three seashell thing work?", implying that he essentially has had a shitty ass the entire film because he was too afraid to ask before.

    One of these films is about a ruthless killer using every tool at his disposal, causing destruction and death in his wake, and the cop, frozen in his time, tasked to bring him down. Considering where it takes place, there may be tacos. The other movie being DEMOLITION MAN.

    Enhance your calm: "Demolition Man" turns 30. Sci-fi action comedy is an under-appreciated gem of '90s action movies, precisely because it unapologetically leans into the massive explosions and campy humor with wild abandon. arstechnica.com/culture/2023...

    In Hong Kong, the restaurant scenes were dubbed because we didn't have Taco Bell. So i grew up believing a lie that Pizza Hut was the dominant franchise in Demolition Man. It was shocking when i saw a non-dubbed non-HK version of the film.
