    It’s not cyberpunk, but my favorite in that video has got to be Usagi Yojimbo doing the Akira-slide on a horse.

    p.s. looks like the video was made before the Akira-slide in Jordan Peele’s “Nope”.

    Some of them are a bit of a stretch, still a hell of a compilation though!

    I love those references. Kubricks 2001 is referenced a lot as well. And I like all the different versions of „The Seven Samurai“.

What is Cyberpunk?

Cyberpunk is a science-fiction sub-genre dealing with the integration of society and technology in dystopian settings. Often referred to as “low-life and high tech,” Cyberpunk stories deal with outsiders (punks) who fight against the oppressors in society (usually mega corporations that control everything) via technological means (cyber). If the punks aren’t actively fighting against a megacorp, they’re still dealing with living in a world completely dependent on high technology.

Cyberpunk characteristics include:

  • Dystopian city setting where mega-corporations rule
  • Full integration of technology into society, featuring cybernetic implants
  • Outsider protagonists (punks) who often are very familiar with the technology around them
  • Hard boiled detective and film noir vibes and influence
  • Themes dabbling in trans-humanism, existentialism, and what it means to be human.
