Zardoz - 1974
John Boorman’s Michael Moorcock’s Brave New World of The Apes.
Not surprising to learn that Boorman was frequently high off his ass making this, which is a shame because there’s a fascinating sci-fi film in there amongst all the New Age hophead nonsense.
reminds me of someone…

well, things are suddenly looking bloody fantastic.
I haven’t played a lot of games that go quite as hard on “faith and piety can be used to approach the infinite, but are also weaponized to choke the humanity of those who are slightly different” quite as hard as Indika.
what the fuck am I looking for.

"In the UCE, there is the eternal contradiction between Colony and Empire. The colonials and imperials, while fundamentally the same citizens of the same state, view themselves as blocs with different goals towards the future of the UCE. Let us demonstrate for you the unpopularity of the nobility among the colonial class. On the planet Ceti Auriga II, there was a first colony that failed, leaving behind a handful of half-finished cities. It was scouted, reanalyzed, and found to be fit for re-habitation. The new colony flourished for five years before they came under attack from the inhabitants of the old colony, who had been infected by a kind of viral, parasitic oligochaetes and turned into feral, bestial creatures. The old and the new fought each other for three years while the colony requested aid from the UCEF repeatedly, until on the third year, one of the ferals of the original colonies opened containment on the power plant and turned a continent into plasmic mist. The UCEF investigators showed up sixteen months later, to discover somewhere in the vicinity of four hundred survivors, who testified before open and closed tribunal about the gross negligence of the UCE discovery service, response service, and biological contamination protocols. The story of Ceti Auriga II is listed in the UCE database in two sentences, which are about the profit loss of House Guntram, who had financed the first colony's construction. The UCE leadership, however wise and magnanimous, are often blind to the facts of life of the average colonial. Perhaps these events are what led to the formation of such groups as the CENTAL and COM-SECA -- ignorance of the basic rights of their constituents." - Obert & Rallix, Second Compendium of Hegemony

They didn't have to go this hard on the backgrounds for Cool World but they did and i think that's beautiful
getting bigger and scruffier is 2026 I guess
artificial intelligence ain't just slappin' a consciousness into a machine, Tex says. his metal fingers unfurl from a fist and the tips of his fingers come alive, whirling apart into tiny machines and apparatus too small to be seen as more than just flickers. you gotta build the machine for it. you gotta build the hardware and software. the tactical AI on the mech, that's a guard dog who knows how to talk. the autons wandering around the crew, they're just kiddos emulatin' their parents. me? I was designed to be a simulacra of an ancient experience. I was built to be a battle-tasked military asset, but once I was retired, they gave me new software. put a licensed consciousness in me, some good ol' boy who left his mind behind when he died. I looked him up once. Ratner Jessup. funny name. ran a big farm on J4227 Riga. not much information. J4227 Riga cares more about exportin' fine grains than population and personnel. all I know about him was he owned a farm, he died at the age of 77, and he liked apples. all the pictures he's in, he had an apple. wasn't no apple farm he ran.
Tex looks at the crew. when you all wonder, who made us, why are we here, what's the meaning of life, the galaxy, the whole shebang, well hell, I just wonder what it'd be like to eat an apple. he tapes the rigid screen of his faceplate. likely just gettin' myself sticky.

I’m really not sure how to interpret things sometimes. so I’ll wait for them to be clearer. luckily, I’m terrible at waiting.
We never answered the question why. Why are we as a people worth saving? We still commit murder because of greed, spite, jealousy. And we still visit all of our sins upon our children. We refuse to accept responsibility for anything that we've done. Like we did with the Cylons. [...] Sooner or later, the day comes when you can't hide from the things that you've done anymore.
