Welcome to Cyberpunk Cinema – the Definitive Dive into the Dark Future of Science Fiction. I am your host, Anthony La Pira, and I will be taking you on a cinematic journey through the sprawling cityscapes, the crippling datastorms, and the cybernetic implants that encompass all things Cyberpunk.In this week's episode, I will be breaking-down the 1971 dystopian protopunk film, THX 1138 – co-written by George Lucas and Walter Murch and directed by George Lucas, starring Robert Duvall, Donald Pleasance, Don Pedro Colley, and Maggie McOmie.In the 25th century, a time when people have designations instead of names, a man, THX 1138, and a woman, LUH 3417, rebel against their rigidly controlled society.This was the debut film of George Lucas before he created Star Wars. It is a protopunk masterpiece that was the primer for the rest of Lucas' career as a filmmaker. It delves into all of the hallmarks of cyberpunk before it's official designation – dystopian society, mind control, drug abuse, cyborgs, cassette futurism. It has a little bit of everything and it paved the way for future of science fiction. It is criminally underrated and I'll be breaking it down next!So, do me a favor – it's time to access your cranial jacks, boot up your Ono-Sendai Cyberspace 7, and slap on your damn mirror-shades.

Josh, Jonny, and special guest Ro from The Scarif Scuttlebutt Podcast (https://www.youtube.com/c/ScarifScuttlebuttPodcast) dive deep into George Lucas's 1971 feature film debut, THX 1138. We talk about the film's themes, its relevance today, and how it laid the groundwork for Lucas's later work, including Star Wars. We discuss: How THX 1138 offers a unique insight into George Lucas's artistic vision and themes that would later be explored in his Star Wars films. How the movie remains relevant today, as it examines the dehumanizing effects of technology and the struggle against oppressive systems. While the CGI additions in the 2004 Director's Cut are controversial, the original film remains a stunning example of low-budget, avant-garde science fiction filmmaking. THX 1138 can be seen as the first part of an informal trilogy, alongside American Graffiti and Star Wars, that explores the idea of leaving a small world to enter a larger one.

Reseña de la primera película escrita y dirigida por George Lucas, y además producida por Francis Ford Coppola. Robert Duvall es un ciudadano de una extraña distopía subterránea donde los sentimientos están prohibidos y todo el mundo es calvo y viste de uniforme, hasta que algo irrumpe en su vida y lo convierte en un rebelde frente a la tiranía de las IAs y los guardias robóticos. Donald Pleasence también está en la película. No es una película fácil de ver, pero hay algo de ella en películas posteriores como Blade Runner y Matrix. Interesante para los curiosos.

It's time for me to watch a film I have not seen before, so today I watch the George Lucas directed Francis Ford Coppola produced 1971 American social science fiction film, THX 1138. This film started out as a student film called Electronic Labyrinth: THX 1138 4EB and was the first film from American Zoetrope. It was a box office failure, but without that failure, we might not of had The Godfather or Star Wars!
POP ART, WHERE WE FIND THE POP CULTURE IN ART AND THE ART IN POP CULTURE. FATALE ATTRACTION: Join me and film enthusiast The Vern of Cinema Recall as we discuss two movies about film fatales, To Die For and Ossessione. “You're not really anybody in America unless you're on TV.” You meet someone. You fall in love. She's married. She manipulates you into killing her husband so you can be with her forever. She betrays you. Hey, it's happened to the best of us…Sounds like it's time for Episode 97 of Pop Art, where we find the pop culture in art and the art in pop culture. It's the podcast where my guest chooses a movie from popular culture, and I'll select a film from the more art/classic/indie side of cinema with a connection to it. For this episode, I am happy to welcome back as my guest, film enthusiast and podcaster The Vern, who has chosen as his film the dark comedy, Gus Van Sant's To Die For, while I have chosen Luchino Visconti's feature film debut, Ossessione, both films about woman manipulating men to commit murder for them. Fun times. Fun times. And in this episode we answer the following questions: What did the writers get wrong about driving in New Hampshire? Why was Ossessione banned in Italy and then prohibited in the US after the war? What happened in real life that was different in To Die For? Who ran screaming from the film festival premier of Ossessione screaming—This is not Italy? What is the appeal of femme fatales? What is a homme fatale? Who is G. Clifford Prout? Why didn't Anna Magani play the lead in Ossessione? Where does the author of the book To Die For appear in the movie? Is there a coded gay character in Ossessione? Why does Illeana Douglas have a cast on in the second half of the movie? Meanwhile look up The Vern's podcast CinemaRecall at Cinemarecall.net. The Vern has been a previous guest on my podcast. For episode 6, we discussed two films revolving around roboticized police forces, Robocop and THX1138.

THX 1138, the film that was way ahead of it's time. George Lucas turned a short award winning student film and expanded it into a disturbing vision of the future. Robot policemen, heavy doses of state prescribed pills, machines that master your alone time, and a jail that is encased in pure white show us where we could be headed. Or are we already there?

Welcome to the new year! This month, we're doing "New Year's Resolution Movies." Movies we've never seen but always wanted to. We start things off with the 1971 George Lucas flick "THX 1138."
Before George Lucas found The Force and brought us Star Wars, he created an intellectually scifi indie film called THX-1138.Many of you may have seen that film, and noticed precursors from everything to light sabers and stormtroopers, but did you ever consider that it takes place entirely in a simulation? Based on an article by our previous guest, cyberpunk author Mark Everglade, we are going to dive in and see if this theory holds merit.Join us as we go into a simulation far, far away for this episode of Futurosity's Flix and Pix..
Ein dickes Sorry an alle italienisch/ungarisch/französisch/japanisch/portugiesisch/esperanto/bayrisch-sprachigen Zuhörer der Banausen. Alle Filme und Serien sind einfach alle komplett auf englisch! Wir haben nicht drauf geachtet, wünschen aber trotzdem viel Vergnügen.

EXTENDED EPISODE: On this Thursday Extra, we take a look back at George Lucas' directorial debut and the director's view of science fiction before Star Wars. To explore this dystopian nightmare is Anthony, a local cinephile and avid A24 connoisseur. In this film, it is a bleak outlook on not only the future, but also the reflection of America's problematic response to the threat of Communism within it's own citizens. Join us as we look through the window into a truly alien civilization with THX 1138 from 1971.In the distant future and in a different world, humanity lives in a megastructure far below the surface of the planet. Freedom is restricted by means of mandatory medication that control emotions. But when THX 1138 (Robert Duvall) and LUH 3417 (Maggie McOmie) stop taking their state-sponsored medication, they wake up to the horror of their existence and also fall in love with each other. With love being outlawed, THX and LUH begin their escape from their world into the unknown.Support this show on PatreonConnect with Cinedicate on these social platforms!Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/cinedicate/Twitter: https://twitter.com/cinedicate/Discord: https://www.cinedicate.com/discord Get bonus content on Patreon See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
In this episode, Neil and I review THX 1138 -- quite possibly the Greatest Movie EVER?
Towards a New Hope: George Lucas's THX-1138 On this week's episode of WatchThis W/RickRamos, Mr. Chavez & I continue our look into - arguably - the greatest of The Cinematic Decades - The 1970s. This week we pay particular attention to George Lucas and his directorial debut, THX-1138. We discuss the film, it's themes and religious connatations, as well as it's production history - including role as flagship project of Lucas and Francis Ford Coppola's Independent Filmmaking Utopia, American Zoetrope. Surprise, Surprise - one of us is a bigger fan of this film than the other, but the discussion (because of this difference) is definitely worth a listen. It's a problematic film (both of us believe this), however it's a film with an important history and role in the emergence of "The New Hollywood". Take a listen and let us know what you think. Questions, Comments, Complaints, & Suggestions can be directed to gondoramos@yahoo.com. Many Thanks for Your Continued Love & Support.
This week on Star Wars Breaking Canon, we're kicking off our Lucasfilm Limited Series with a discussion of George Lucas's first feature film, THX-1138. We break down Lucas's unique vision of a dystopian future with a lively discussion of the film's influence on the genre of science fiction, its experimental sound design, and how the film's failure to connect with an audience would ultimately pave the way for Star Wars.Breaking Canon Rating: 7.0/10Hosts:James Callahan [Twitter: @nahallacsemaj]Julius Freeman [Twitter: @A_Lucid_Comic]Joseph McCorkle [Twitter: @jmccorklewrites]Julz Saito [Twitter: @julzsaito]Music:Brian Wood [Twitter/Instagram]Twitter: @SWBCpodcastInstagram: @BreakingCanonPodcastQuestions or comments?

It's time to dive in to the movie Francis Ford Coppola funded and George wrote almost half a decade before Star Wars: THX 1138. Robert Duvall! Obsolete cubes! Pushover robots! Special Edition type changes! (Note: This movie is wildly more 'mature' in content than most SW stuff, so the conversation naturally is as well! Dystopia, baybee!)

Episode Notes The Whole FIlm!!!
Paul Moyer joins Jason Sacks for the first of a series of discussions of 1970s dystopian cinema. This time: George Lucas's THX-1138 and Douglas Trumbull's Silent Running. Join Jason and Paul for a thoughftul and (we think) fascinating discussion of alienation, ecological collapse, the trauma of the 1960s, and the impact of loneliness in these two fascinating films. It's an hour of so of great listening. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/jason-sacks/message
