I don't care if vaporwave is dead, I like the pastel/dreamlike aesthetic.
What is the most vaporwave movie?
What are some movies with this asthetic?

That's synthwave.
I really doubt there are any vaporwave movies actually.
Landon Lewis

No, you're both retarded. The closest thing to LiT would be downtempo or space pop, since the aesthetic is shared by Air.
Synthwave is, as the name implies, synth heavy, i.e having the heavy usage of synthesizers. Vaporwave doesn't need to have synth. Synthwave subgenres tend to go for more grim things while vaporwave subgenres are either whimsical, upbeat, dreamlike, surrealist etc.
Synthwave and vaporwave are only confused by the plebian because all they see is "hurrdurr 80's" when there's actually much more to both.

Generally synthwave has darker colours as opposed to lighter pastel. Also harder lines.
Ryder Wilson
Can you give me examples of each?
Mason Anderson
Just watch the Ghost in the Shell anime, Neon Genesis Evangelion or one of these films

I'm not here to give you spoonfeed your ass you mouthbreathing fucktard. If you gave enough of a fuck about either you'd never have to ask these questions in the first place.
There are enough fucktards in both genres as is, we don't need any more trendhopping troglodytes, thank you much.

Don’t be so mean :’(

there is no true vaporwave movie yet, all the film listed are sci-fi/cyberpunk or random anime.
Jaxon Garcia

Oliver Thompson
Lawnmower Man is the film you are looking for youtu.be
Thomas Parker
That was honestly the most egregious. Even after NGE.
Leo Sanders
Probably the first season of Miami Vice.
Zachary Turner
why is this reddit cancer invading Sup Forums so much lately is it just one autist spamming or what
Benjamin Cox
reddit was heavily involved in the development of vaporwave, but it is a legitimate genre with several 10/10 albums and a unique aesthetic that draws from other similar genres but transforms them to find new meaning for a new social perspective.
Leo Foster
Try 80s Michael Mann productions.
Miami Vice TV show.
Manhunter.
Band of the Hand (a pilot that never got picked up).
Also:
To Live and Die in LA. (Wang Chung soundtrack)
American Gigolo. (Giorgio Moroder)
Risky Business. (Tangerine Dream)
Scarface (it's a touch early in the 80s for pure Pastel Kino though)
Less Than Zero.
St Elmo's Fire.
Miracle Mile. (Tangerine Dream)
Electric Dreams. (Giorgio Moroder)
Black Rain (getting late in the decade).
Jackie Chan's Police Story 1 & 2 (2 is most 80s in vibe).
Giorgio Moroder's strange synthy re-assembly of Metropolis may be worth a look.
(the famous Radio Ga-Ga music video by Queen came out around the same time)
Sampling old art deco/futurist style imagery and overlaying modern colors and design elements was very hot at the time.
Seeing a lot of that same approach reemerge now in synth/retro stuff.
Tangerine Dream's credit list:
imdb.com
Three O'Clock high has a very heightened dreamlike vibe to it, but is mostly a comedy.
The Keep is very fucking 80s, but set in WW2. Another Mann joint.
Near Dark. You should see that anyway. It does have some dreamy moments.
