Talk:Molly Millions

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I'm not sure I'd call Molly a "cyborg". Even though, according to the cyborg entry, 'Generally, the term "cyborg" is used to refer to a man or woman with bionic, or robotic, implants.', it seems to imply more machine than person. Molly has three augmentations, mirrored lenses over her eye sockets (they include a time readout, do they enhance vision as well?), extensible blades under her fingernails, and enhanced (faster) reflexes. She is certainly augmented, but is she a "cyborg"? Doggo

The definition in the cyborg article is wide enough to include persons with a third of the implants Molly Millions had.--AlainV 02:52, 25 February 2006 (UTC)

I would have to agree that cyborg is not an ideal description, but will probably do until a better one comes along. The eye implants had a time readout as well as image amplification ( Referenced for starters in Neuromancer )Angelstorm

The problem is with the "consensus" definition in the Wikipedia article on cyborgs. In print dictionaries and encyclopedias available in any library the definition of cyborg refers to men and woman with any number of mechanical or electronic implants, so Molly Millions and the term fit well together. --AlainV 03:09, 8 April 2006 (UTC)

The term "artificially augmented human" seems like a better choice since cyborg suggests a machine with biological parts rather than the other way around. Kriegaffe 16:19, 11 June 2007 (UTC)

I've always taken Miss Millions to have muscle augmentation [especially after she kicks that man through the door, in Mona Lisa Overdrive [I think it is]].

Some sort of targeting link might be possible, too.

[edit] References in other films

Molly is thought to have strongly influenced the portrayal of the character 'Trinity' in the original film of the Matrix Trilogy.

[edit] Cheat code

For some reason, "sally shears" is a common cheat code in computer games. Added to trivia, it was removed lacking citations. World of Warcraft cheat codes Supreme Commander Cheat Codes In view of common function of revealing an entire map suggest "her eye sockets are in fact sealed with vision-enhancing mirrored lenses" is probably the reason the term was chosen by the programmers.
