Cyberpunk
I've been invited to a Shadowrun game and I need inspiration to give a shit. So far, I've found this http://youtu.be/Q43h1zHpjqc and rewatched Natural City, Babylon A.D., and Blade Runner. Need more movies.
Also, I haven't ever watched Blade Runner in it's entirety before because I always fell asleep and I didn't know that Decker/Han Solo rapes that replicant secretary. It pretty much killed my soul.

Its true, he said Harrison Ford was dead to him because of non-consensual sex, and I nearly tore my clothes in grief right Old Testament like thinking he meant in real life.

I think maybe this.
Prometheus was good. But that's not really very cyberpunk.

Doesn't really strike my fancy. Not enough dystopia, I think.

Are you strictly looking for live action movies or would you also be interested in anime or books?

I'm not very particular, to be honest. Anime and books are both appreciated.

My head is too clogged for me to think properly so I'm just kind of going to do bullet points.
-Akira is a classic, either the manga or film, as is Metropolis. I prefer Metropolis but both are very much worth watching
-I'm not sure if Ergo Proxy would really be considered cyberpunk. Visually it is gorgeous so if you need aesthetic inspiration give it a go but it is slightly lacking in substance.
-Appleseed is worth a look, specifically the manga thought there is also a lot of derivative work that you could also take a look at.
-Mirrorshades: The Cyberpunk Anthology comes highly recommended but I have not personally read any of it.
-If you are only going to look at one cyberpunk book it pretty much has to be Neuromancer by William Gibson.

Oh, Ergo Proxy was pretty and touches a lot of gawfic feels, but man was it pretentious.

So I played yesterday evening and my character was roofied by a 60 year old russian woman. Everybody else was pretty amused and this is why I hate this planet.

That sucks. Hopefully the game gets better the more you play out.
