Cyborg 2087 was a 1966 movie with Miichael Rennie.
It is not the most well known of science fiction movies.
That does not mean it isn't good, just that it isn't recognized.
One of the things it is known for is its similarity to the plot of Terminator 2.
David has decided to write this short book in 72 hours. He will watch Cyborg 2087 and express what it is about.
He will dive into issues of plagariesm and the act of borrowing someone else's ideas.
It will talk of Michael Rennie, 1960s movies making, James Cameron, Harlan Ellison and Orson Welles. There will be others too, but it is a short book so we couldn't go down all the rabbit holes we might have.
This is a long winded examination on originality and inspiration by focusing on one 1966 time travel movie.
The First Look Chronicles is a series of short books about watching certain films for the first time.
