Your most dystopian movie you ever saw

@Ryszard No need to get abusive, Ryszard. I haven't a clue what you're on about either! IMO if you're quoting something in a foreign language to the rest of thread, it's basically good manners to do the translation for the other participants. If you don't then in IMHO it invalidates your entire argument.

you use words whose meaning you do not understand

Do not blame people for their language speaking issues. That is against forum rules you had accepted with regsistration!

As you read and write the news remember:

Some are native English speakers, others have different native languages.

Since 26:05:2024/14:42 there has been an ongoing discussion in the thread you set up - how to understand the topic of this thread i.e. which films to mention in it and which not. Maybe you would like to take a clear position on this instead of pushing the discussion to the side ‘difference between a tank and an armoured personnel carrier’.

Would you like to discuss it? I set up a separate thread on this subject yesterday.

@ALL
I edited post #1.
For me dystopia is a fictional scenario that represents a dark, frightening and undesirable vision of the future.

I dislike that the thread is hijacked on discussion what "Dystopia" is and other things. Was not the goal of the thread.

So, Stay on Topic! - Please!!!!
Thanks.

Released in 1968, Bergman's Skammen remains my darkest and most disturbing movie experience of all time.

You mean like this?

Year of manufacture: 1983
The action begins in 1991, which in reality was different from the film. But 2044, when the actual action of the film takes place, is still to come.

What happened in this thread reminded me of another film (in blacks, greys and and sadness i.e. I put it in the ‘thinly-thinly’ category)

Year of manufacture: 1983
The film is set at the end of December ending the 20th century. If we consider the facts then of course they are different from what we remember from reality. But when it comes to characters who either manipulate others or succumb to manipulation themselves, unfortunately - that's what we saw in this thread.

Blade Runner 2077. With Ryan Gosling, it's such a creepy movie that I haven't even watched it to the end.

May not have to look for a movie describing a Dysphoric future. Wait and see who gets in the whitehouse. Maybe we are already living in one and don't recognize it.

@ingolftopf She had presidential power for a whole 87 minute when Biden was having a check-up. In all that time she did not start a war or insult a head of state. Soooo not presidental material. :sarcasm

I am surprised, that Clockwork Orange from 1971 has not been mentioned yet.
Great Movie, even tho not that easy to stomach in my opinion.

[jpaulbiss]

@ingolftopf The rnd.de articles reminds me of the Bildzeitung.

@jpaulbiss Off-Topic. Please, we are posting on Movies not about bad newpapers.
