philip k dick, arguably the gnostic successor to carl jung in a purely cultural sense, talks about his rights getting picked up for bladerunner shortly before he died. cyberpunk 2020 in 90, then you had akira in 91. the wachowski bros were massive anime fans. johnny mnemonic. it flowered from 80s punk culture and the burgeoning technologisation on the horizon. that's what stirred all of this virtual reality idealisation. it was a perfect cultural stew. you had to be there. no one ever talks about it, but keanu reeves seems to pick mostly futurist and cyberpunk movies.
