This was mentioned in our discussion of bad cyberpunk movies but I wanted to bring it to a wider audience. Do you consider the 1993 Super Mario Bros movie to be cyberpunk?

I’d say the movie definitely takes place in a cyberpunk city, but are there any cyberpunk themes present?

Here’s a trailer. I don’t think it’s streaming anywhere, but if you watch it I recommend watching with the RiffTrax commentary (Mystery Science Theater 3000 guys) to make it more enjoyable.

      Yes, Tank Girl is absolutely cyberpunk.

      Its dystopian, the bad guy is a profit-motivated corporation, and the heroes belong to an alt-subculture
