Did I spell it right? Dystopian, as an adjective?

I think Children of Men is superb. Also Blade Runner and The Road Warrior.

Dysphorian (gender identity confusion)? Dystopian (messed up future world)?

Dystopian?

Idiocracy, Tank Girl, Demolition Man (though this is really Brave New World with Stallone), Battle Royale (Japan).

Wow, talk about way off. Fixed.

I’ve made worse mistakes. I once put down 8+4=13 on a very high-stakes examination. (In homology, which should explain why I encountered a counting problem.)

Here's a good idea. Lets take the most valuable real estate in the country and turn it into a prison.
Didn't Billy Joel tell you?

You know those lights were bright on Broadway
That was so many years ago
Before we all lived here in Florida
Before the Mafia took over Mexico

Even though it's almost a hundred years old, Metropolis is hard to beat.
It’s hard to think of any Hollywood movie prior to the 1960s that could rival Metropolis in this capacity. The only one I can think of is Things to Come and that’s meh.

I'll cover both possibilities ...

The Crying Games ... it's like the The Hunger Games, set many, many years in the future, except you could only kill people of the same biological sex, or you are also terminated ... but there's virtually no way to tell who is/was a dude, and who is/was a chick.

First movie that came to my mind. Idiocracy. Gets more scary to think about it as each day passes though because it keeps getting closer to reality.
