    I suppose my favorite, at the moment, would be the first season of Altered Carbon. Other favorites (many probably tinted from nostalgia):

    • Robocop
      • probably my first introduction into cyberpunk, was a very young child when I watched it with my dad.
    • Demolition Man
      • I really like cheesy action movies, lol
    • Deus Ex
      • was just barely a teen when I played it, and was mind-blowing back then
    • Cyberpunk 2077
      • just started playing it; it’s the reason I found this community. I’m mostly just amazed how both large and detailed the city is.
    • “Lobsters” by Charles Stross (found in Accelerando).
    • Forbes

    IDK, I think cyberpunk is best delivered with humor, since I see the genre as a parody of modern, first-world life, with everything exaggerated a little bit (less so as time goes on).
