The High Tech Low Life Podcast: A Cyberpunk Media Retrospective

Episode 32 - Babylon AD


Listen Later

In the year 2058, a racially ambiguous mercenary (Vin Diesel) is hired by a very French sexual harrasser (Gerard Depardieu) to smuggle a young girl (Melanie Thierry) and her Warrior Nun bodyguard (Michelle Yeoh) across the Bering Strait and into America. Pretty cool setup, right?  I know I'm intrigued!  Surely this will payoff big time!  Spoiler alert:  They do not.  Another spoiler alert:  Things get really Jesusy.

This week ya boys watch and recap 2008's Babylon A.D.  A clustersuck of a film with a lot of good ideas that go absolutely nowhere.

The High Tech Low Life Podcast is a retrospective of cyberpunk fiction across all forms of media. Film, Television, Literature, Games, and Music are all on the table. In each episode we will revisit the property, it's influences, it's prescience, and enshrine it in the chrome and neon halls of Neo Valhalla.
