I think Brazil did a better job of this than The Fifth Element, but yeah, I'd love to read/see more modern equivalents. Recommendations welcome.


That's fair; I was tempted to say that The Fifth Element also a little bit prefigured "hopepunk", in that it is, in spite of everything, a love story with a happy ending. Brazil could maybe almost be considered the "black mirror" version of the same story, if you squint really hard at least.

In any case, I haven't watched either film in far too long. I should really remedy that soon!
