it was demolished in the 90's m8
It was a pretty good Black Ops map
Bloodsport
you'd think it would be kino but it just looks like shit, it's just dark everywhere and i don't even want to imagine how humid it would get.
Not directly related but I just watched dredd that had a claustrophobic apartment feel to it
one of the transformers had some pew pew bang bang scenes set in what was supposedly based on it
that city must be depraved as fuck
It was run by the local mafia, usually these people don't want troubles.
Lots of people in Hong Kong still live like that, just smaller and minus all the cool and fun vibes
those pics of their commieblock skyscrapers raise my anxiety
From a prior thread, there was a documentary about overcrowding in modern Hong Kong too. Forgot the name.
comfy
Thanks for saying what I was thinking and the level was fun too although I found the torture scene disturbing as fuck if someone put a peice of glass in my mouth I'd tell them what they wanted to know before they punched me
What do they eat?

this nigga eating beans
Wonder what it costs to live in these
this nigga eating beans...
Gross
bats
yo this nigga eating beans
Love this cramped hellscape aesthetic
nah it's nice
Holy shit, that looks like something out of Dredd
I'm a construction worker and I would kill for a space like this for $150 to $200 a month. I live mostly out of hotels because most of my work is out of town. I could absolutely come home, cook some food on a small burner, and then pass out on my twin matress,
is South Africa the closest we've come to hell on earth?
Its in south africa, where a lot of Dredd was made
What happens when Africa tries to build a skyscraper.
District 9
Chappie
Transformers 4
Huh, could have sworn it was somewhere in Asia
Ponte City Apartments
Even more Dredd like when you realize it's in Johannesburg
imagine the wifi channels
that's some tsutomu nihei shit mang
Dude, get a fucking RV/Winnebago.
So how long until there's a fire?
We'll take Peachtrees
They tore it down in the 80s or 90s, it's a park now I think
Fuck Hong Kong. May they be engulfed in flame!
In 1993.

it's a hive city
Long Arm of the Law
That Austrian doco on youtube
Vorstellen der Gestank
how do they deal with fires?
rather be living here than in China
Wait, what? All the photos look modern.
They pray for rain
Imagine this place during the Wuhan Flu outbreak.
>this is who tells us to have sex
>21:06
>that chinese hobo trying to tear scrap metal away from a bundle of rain soaked chinese electrical cables
SOUL
SOULESS
>it was torn down in 1994 after it became too awesome for them to handle
You have to buy an entire RV, then you have to park them somewhere and pay a lot fee.
I just want a building where I can open a door to a fucking tiny ass apartment with almost no rules.
Where the fuck do you bathe or piss?
Jackie Chan's Crime Story.
For vidya, Shenmue 2.
Rent was $4.50 A month
They probably have a common bathroom somewhere.
only professional photographers were allowed in really, the average tourist was told to GTFO.
Imagine the smell...
Would be a fantastic setting for a psychological thriller
or a gangster movie
The park actually looks nice, however the surrounding areas make chinkland look so depressing.
How do they manage to do any maintenance on the buildings or infrastructure in such conditions?
nightmare fuel
Imagine that building falling at any second. That constant anxiety is hell.
You're insane.
It think Chungking Express had some scenes here? I heard it pretty much ran itself, had its own organised crime mafia with brothels and protection. Government couldn't control it so had to shut it down
imagine the size of the roaches crawling out of your ass everyday
Made me think of Stanley Tweedle.
That's because you want to live in a sterile painted shithole with no law and order
It's chine, they ate all the roaches.
can i afford to live like a king in the prime real-estate outward-facing apartments on my military disability? serious question. 70%
based BEENZ
Liberia or Congo probably
>Government couldn't control it so had to shut it down
No, they shut it down when HK returned to China, before that it existed because it was officialy a chinese territory in british HK, so neither the bongs or the chinks could rule over it properly, it was kind of a free state.
For books, pick up City of Darkness.
The original is expensive since it's been out of print for years, but there was a new version of it made a few years ago that shouldn't cost too much. Think it was through kickstarter.
I torrented a copy of the original book from Pirate Bay way back in the day, so you might still be able to torrent it.
Chngking Express was filmed in Chungking mansions, which is in a different part of Hong Kong.
You're right though it does have a similar vibe.
perfect little ecosystem
