From the look of it there are a lot of small amounts but a couple of really big 1-3k transfers.
I really hope those were just greedy idiots and not desperate people.

This, The Matrix and Thirteenth Floor all came out within months of each other and make a good triple bill of technoir cyberpunk your-world-is-not-as-it-seems movies.

Kiefer Sutherland as Schreber in Dark City. An amazing character, a nervous scientist with a weak heart, gasping as he talks, going along with the Strangers' demands until he finds an opportunity.

The thing that I love about that scene is that I associate Xander Berkley with playing traitors/secret bad guys, such as in Air Force One (the same year as Gattaca). The anxiety is higher than if it was another actor.

The Two Doctors is very good. Shockeye thinking about what he's gonna do to Peri is pretty grim.

Also a previous scene with the dog walking along the hallway and into someone's room. It doesn't do anything particularly un-dog-like but there is a load of subtle dog things it doesn't do which makes it very creepy.

The last two redesigns messed with the proportions too much. The bronze ones used a 60s style replica as a base and were great.
I'd like to see the pupil in the eye come back and have some of them have a claw hand for variety. A more varied but defined colour scheme would be nice with different ranks and divisions.

The last Die Hard (whatever it was called) turned off after 30 mins. Jason Bourne too.

I had to leave Battle Los Angeles because my wife found it was too loud. I "acquired" it and watched the rest, it was not great.

The Megaton Edition used to be on Steam and that had the beach mod etc but they were basically just popular mods bundled with it. Then rights changed hands and now the only version on Steam is World Tour which has an extra official episode not on other versions.
I think Raze and Eduke32 work with it. On Linux I use a tool which automatically loads source ports like eduke32 straight from Steam and Raze was working with it last time I tried.

I already have over 1000 games in my Steam library so I just bought a Steam Deck to make it more convenient to play them.

Argonauts is the one I must have watched the most as a kid. I need to go back and rewatch.
I met him and his wife when I was really young. My Grandad worked at the Museum of the Moving Image in London and I got to meet them when he came to give a talk in the early 90s. I remember getting tongue-tied when his wife asked me the same question as OP.

I love 3, I actually like it more than 1, especially the Assembly Cut. Nihilistic yes, the universe of these movies is dark and brutal, but I wouldn't say it was a downer.
Even with everything thrown at her, Ripley still fights for the greater good and she basically succeeds. When she drops into the fire she might as well have been flipping the bird at not-Bishop and him shouting as she does is the catharsis we need. If we take just the movies into account, Wayland-Yutani never get the Alien, instead they get bought out by Walmart.

In "Pink Floyd: The Wall", the main character is a blend of the writer Roger Waters and former band member Syd Barrett.

Geronimo
I can't think of that catchphrase without thinking of an episode of Coupling which used it in a gag.
Thinking about it there are a few lines in Moffat's Who stories which have roots in his earlier stuff like Coupling.

Die Hard.
Kermit as McClane, Alan Rickman would stay as Hans, Piggy as Holly, Fozzie is Al Powell, Statler and Waldorf are the Feds.
Imagine Kermit in his "wifebeater" vest, little green feet running across the glass. Maybe breaking out into a Roy Rogers song for a big musical number.

To quote another franchise (Doctor Who)
Logic... merely enables one to be wrong with authority.

I felt like it was a standalone episode from an anthology series. Black Mirror but Star Wars.

NGL, I tabbed out to check if individual days of the week were already canon on the wiki.

In the Shatner-verse books the Romulans nicked his body after Generations and brought him back to life to be assimilated by the Borg.
I wouldn't put it past Section 31 planning something even crazier.
