Retro Futurist Culture

Hoptimus is joined by Tony to talk about the 1995 film Johnny Mnemonic. A film that was perhaps too ahead of its time. Megacorps running the world. Enhanced humans who can carry data in their brains? Why are the Yakuza involved. IS that really ICE T with a Dolphin? Did Dolph Lungren just come out of no where and fight Henry Rollins?! What kind of crazy film is this! Tune in and find out!

What is Retro Futurist Culture?

The Retro Futurist project is an examination of themes in pop culture by Hoptimus.Themes of society in alternate timelines projected by cultures of the past or present. These are timelines where a once thriving society was turned to dystopia or taken over by tools of mankind. Places where society has lost its soul in pursuit of technology. To redeem our future is to talk of the past future and steer the soul of mankind forward...
