I suppose my favorite, at the moment, would be the first season of Altered Carbon. Other favorites (many probably tinted from nostalgia):

  • Robocop
    • probably my first introduction into cyberpunk, was a very young child when I watched it with my dad.
  • Demolition Man
    • I really like cheesy action movies, lol
  • Deus Ex
    • was just barely a teen when I played it, and was mind-blowing back then
  • Cyberpunk 2077
    • just started playing it; it's the reason I found this community. I'm mostly just amazed how both large and detailed the city is.
  • "Lobsters" by Charles Stross (found in Accelerando).
  • Forbes

IDK, I think cyberpunk is best delivered with humor, since I see the genre as a parody of modern, first-world life, with everything exaggerated a little bit (less so as time goes on).
