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...

    Hoptimus is joined by Zen to dig into the dystopian action film V for Vendetta. What is V?  But who was he really? What was he like? We are told to remember the idea, not the man, because a man can fail. He can be caught, he can be killed and forgotten, but 400 years later, an idea can still change the world. I've witnessed first hand the power of ideas, I've seen people kill in the name of them, and die defending them... but you cannot kiss an idea, cannot touch it, or hold it... ideas do not bleed, they do not feel pain, they do not love... And it is not an idea that I miss, it is a man... A man that made me remember the Fifth of November. A man that I will never forget.#retrofuture #scifi #rumiationsradio #vforvendetta #alanmoore #davidlloyd #dccomics #vertigohttps://www.facebook.com/retrofuturistcuturehttps://twitter.com/FuturistRetrowww.RuminationsRadioNetwork.comwww.instagram.com/RuminationsRadioNetworkTwitter: RuminationsRadioNetwork@RuminationsNEmail: RuminationsRadio@gmail.com Music and Production by Mitch Proctor for Area 42 Studios and SoundEpisode Artwork by Charles Langley for Area 42 Studios and Soundhttps://www.patreon.com/RuminationsRadio ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★
