Nowhere near as good as Blade Runner though.

its just a futuristic noir with a really bad story but with some cool black and white visuals.

What nitin said, the script is really poor, and the black&white rendering was slapped onto it towards the end of production cause they didn't quite figure out how to do what they wanted, and it ended up hiding 80% of the awesome facial animation work that was done for it.
 Some of the settings are quite nice, especially if you know Paris, and I guess the style is original enough to make it worth seeing, but it's definetely not a great movie. 
	 
		
		
Classical Architecture

 Very specific diagrams and measurements on the Doric, Ionic, Corinthian, and Tuscan styles of classical architecture, which are recycled a hell of a lot throughout history.
 
 probably too academic (and not on a Quake scale) for most but it's damned handy for me at the moment.

the finnish mecant.

 It can be seen in the scifi-movie "Lipton Cockton in the Shadows of Sodoma" as well. The director said when they were filming that scene, everybody had to wear hearing protection since the noise from the machine was so horrible.

 Very nice piece of machinery; flashbacks from the terminator films.

I posted some new photoalbums on my site, maybe some of them could contain some ok reference material. Most interesting is Pierrefonds Castle:
