Metropolis (1927) dir. Fritz Lang Blade Runner (1982) dir. Ridley Scott
A woman whose epilepsy was greatly improved by an experimental brain implant was devastated when, just two years after getting it, she was forced to have it removed due to the company that made it going bankrupt.
Specifically, because she couldn't afford to buy the implant from the company. They basically took her implant back to recoup their losses. This is what happens when you privatize healthcare and health research. The group providing her with this implant should not have been able to go bankrupt in the first place, let alone repossess her implant to pay off their debts.
Nobody likes surveillance!
I like how the temperature goes up from the wolves breathing on the camera
I literally had a dream about 2 mornings ago where I saw the infamous and completely fictitious “lab couch” that we often add to our Newmann fics. It looked almost like this. A pastel blue, half-assed, chaise longue with gold clawed feet. Seriously. What is going on in my head?
Don’t think I mentioned I had a dream on November 5th about Newmann. It was a deleted scene and Newton and Hermann were in the elevator together, exhausted, resting on the floor, and Hermann’s head was on Newton’s lap. They were holding hands.

Newt’s farewell message in the film felt a little cruel to me (“it’s your fault”, seriously?), so I thought I’d make him a new one… but in the end I couldn’t decide what to make him say. Whoops?
It’s a write-your-own-dialogue comic! Imagine he’s saying whatever nice things you like.
Here's a very intriguing scan from the JP sticker book: This appears to be a shot in the control room, (maybe when everyone bails out of the Explorers and goes to see the sick triceratops), featuring a female technician. She's just barely visible in the background of the control room in a few scenes. I think this is Lata Ryan, one of the associate producers. Additionally, this photo also exists in color (but I have not seen it).

This is like the fictitious “lab couch” I had a dream about.
