A quirky young woman crushes on a weird artsy guy.
This is quirkier than it's characters, and is worthy of earning seventeen times its budget.
Original title: Le fabuleux destin d'Amélie Poulain

A vastly easier-to-use fork of Stable Diffusion.
Fucking amazing.
Unfortunately, I can't actually get anything decent to render. It comes down to the complexity of the prompts. It doesn't use the same prompts as Stable Diffusion, so it's too annoying to copy-paste and even prove that it works to make anything decent at all; fail.

A hacker learns reality is not as it appears.
A sci-fi ripoff of elements of Lucid dreaming, with elements taken from the Neuromancer/Shadowrun "cyberpunk" genres.
A pioneering movie for special effects, which have held up quite well, and its general pot and atmosphere. Technically not original for science fiction fans, but great nonetheless.
One of my favourites, although I really wish the actor playing Trinity (Carrie-Anne Moss) was good looking.

A series of non-cannon short animated films inspired by The Matrix - (1999 movie).
Better than the main series in some cases. I rather love every one of these short films.

I have nothing but positive things to say about this game. Except for the negative things.
I haven't done a proper review, and might bother some time later.
Full ultrawide support, even in windowed fullscreen. It's a big difference.
