Blue-collar / working-class Sci-fi flicks: List them here

this was a solid thread, well done everyone

"the island", while indefensibly shitty, was ultimately pretty working class

"indefensibly shitty, was ultimately pretty working class"
haha that's all of michael bay's movies.

Playing Borderlands 2 this weekend and realized that both this game and Guardians of the Galaxy(much like Starcraft I & II) had great depictions of sci-fi rednecks/hillbillies. Yet again, I posit that Michael Rooker will probably never get the full credit for what he contributes to GotG.

Ha, and I completely forgot this thread had this exchange:

Yeah, but C3PO is a "protocol droid", i.e. built for a white collar job. Can you imagine him doing manual work?

"My last job was programming binary load-lifters, very similar to your vaporators!"

I guess we can add Elysium / Total Recall(remake) to this list, and also Edge of Tomorrow, which pointedly highlights the contrast between grunt & pretty-boy officer

I'm watching Snowpiercer right now. Definitely counts.

that repo men flick from a few years back. terrible, but working class, even trying to say something abt it.
