16 futuristic urban sprawls. Can you name them?
We take it you’ve heard the big news of the day – Ridley Scott is set to direct a new Blade Runner movie. If it happens (because many things could derail it, like any movie) you have to wonder – can Scott change the look of sci-fi again, the way he did with the original?
One of the 1982’s film’s most memorable elements was the stunning way it depicted the future Los Angeles. The influence of those majestic images can still be felt today.
Which gave us the idea for this week’s Blastermind quiz – sci fi cityscapes.
There are 16 below for you to identify. Just the name of the film, TV show or game they came is good enough for us, but award yourselves extra bragging points if you can name the city as well. No prizes, we’re afraid. It’s all just for fun. And the pleasure of looking at some great sci-fi images.
Usual request: please don’t put answers in the comments section below (though feel free to use it to boast/bemoan how well/badly you’re doing) but the folks on this thread are quite happy for you to post and discuss answers if you follow the golden rule of only posting answers in invisible text (if you don’t know how ask somebody there – they’re very friendly).
