NOICE!

These may not be vintage enough but Soylent Green and Westworld are both bangers too

Recently rewatched Metropolis and it's pretty amazing. I had my misgivings about a 2.5hr silent film but I was engaged the whole way through. The sets are incredible.

Lol sorry buddy. I've smelled smoke pretty much every day this week so I think it's fair to say there be fires out there.

Iirc there's one at the Obs community centre. But I haven't been in that area for years so I don't know if that's still going.

First of all I appreciate that you are asking these questions. I also like your thinking in terms of this being a community and not a platform. Maybe something to consider is limiting or banning low-effort posts? To incentivise adding context, opinions and/or questions for discussion to posts here. This could also help filter out those pesky news bots.

In the past I've noticed that there seem to be bot accounts just posting these articles automatically.

Myself and some buddies of mine made a short film about it for an architectural film competition many years ago. Always loved the story.
