Wanted a little of something familiar and fantastic before I pass out tonight. It's been too long, Total Recall from 1990. It's been too long.

Intro scene of Total Recall, Arnie's dream on Mars on a TV in a dark room. Cat head in the way.

inkican,

@jake4480 How long's it been since I watched 'Total Recall?'

@AwattoAnalog hopefully tomorrow won't involve pulling a golf-ball-sized tracker out of your nostril

HeatHack: I've hung my quilt from the roof to keep the sun out of my office in the hope that I can cool it enough to make coding possible.

True #hacker!

This involves a brick, a stone Buddha and a woodworking clamp to create a gap for the tiny amount of breeze out there.

I could cook on my #narrowboat roof today, which the #MetOffice said would be overcast.

Now considering the wet towel popularised by Arnie in #TotalRecall.

Had a mad idea again and threw out the entire 6th module of my Intro to World Lit class (last minute again, because I live on the edge)

Making it pure SF this time, so because I'm thinking of including #PhilipKDick's short story #WeCanRememberItForYouWholesale on the roster, I'm rewatching #TotalRecall with Arnold Schwarzenegger
(not the soulless 2012 remake, thanks)

Total Recall

They should definitely remake this movie, but instead of dream implantation, all the mindfucks would have been implemented with

Hell.. Might even get Arnold to appear in it!

@gimulnautti What, remake perfection?

@HistoPol My reasons for changing the undelying tech weren’t actually for probability reasons.

I find the most compelling reason to watch sci-fi is for social commentary.

It won’t be torture when you join Christian Sci-Fi Night with Professor K. We watch classic/current sci-fi and discuss from a Christian perspective.

Total Recall turns 33 years old today. It premiered back in 1990.

Based off "We Can Remember It for You Wholesale" penned by Philip K. Dick, it earned $260+ million dollars.

It did get a 2012 remake, but I think it's safe to say the original is better received.

So, in honour of Total Recall, please enjoy the single most over-the-top bar fight ever put to film. Courtesy of Paul Verhoeven.

@AwattoAnalog the lady in the pink dress stabs the guy in the white shirt + glasses a lot lower. Then the shot changes to show the knife in his chest, instead of right in the junk.
