The_Phantom_Empire featuring Gene-Autry, was the first Sci-Fi Western movie. High technology is depicted in an underground civilization. Unfortunately, the special effects and props back then were very limited. This should be updated not only with CGI, but practical effects and sets.
Serenity is a good movie. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serenity_(2005_film)#Plot
Cowboys_and_Aliens is a very entertaining movie from 2011. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cowboys_and_Aliens#Plot
Battle_Beyond_the_Stars and Outland are two very different movies, but they are both variations of the Space_Western.

This isn't exactly an underground bunker version of The_Truman_Show. That's because the inhabitants seem to know that they are essentially in an underground sound_stage bunker, with adjustable roof (sky) lights. Fortunately for them, they aren't in a totalitarian situation like THX 1138, but they are stuck down there, nonetheless. They don't have enough perspective and pertinent information about their situation. Indeed, part of their reality is a LIE.

"Michael vows to destroy his work and enlists the help of Karen and Hal. Michael and Karen head to the Pinehurst Resort, and realizing they are under surveillance, stage a fight that ends in Karen leaving for Hal's house. As the two feign reconciliation over the phone, Michael accesses the Brainstorm computer via another phone line while Karen hacks into the system, sabotaging the robots that manufacture the interface terminals. They run amok.
Karen shuts down the security system, locking the staff outside. Michael loads Lillian's tape. With the plant in chaos, Robert orders Michael's arrest.
Karen leaves to meet with Michael at a place important to them. Hal and his wife, Wendy, send the last of Karen's commands to the company computers, shutting down the plant.
Karen follows Michael to a phone booth at the Wright Brothers memorial. The tape plays. Michael bears witness to the afterlife, experiencing a vision of hell, then traveling from Earth and through the universe, even after the tape ends. He ultimately has visions of angels and departed souls flying into a great cosmic Light. Then he collapses. Karen, believing him dead or dying, screams at him, over and over, demanding that he stay with her. Awakening, weeping with joy, Michael points up and whispers, “Look at the stars!” Their embrace, enclosed in a memory bubble, floats into the night." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brainstorm_(1983_film)#Plot

This is such a fantastic movie. Source Code isn't so much about time-travel (TT), as its more about linking one's consciousness to a parallel world. Thus, at the end of the movie it is revealed that the protagonist is in another person's body, which is fully intact on an alternate world.
"Stevens presses him for answers, he's told that Source Code isn't a simulation, as he suspected, but an extremely limited type of time travel. Rutledge clarifies that it's more like time re-assignment, and it works via quantum mechanics and parabolic calculus." https://www.looper.com/1284014/source-code-ending-explained

If a business person starts to be very unpopular, their brand names might also not be as popular.
However, as society gets more angry and impoverished, there might not be enough police and military to control over 8 billion people.
Thus, there could be a huge demand for advanced AI robots and AI drones (AGI) to control the human herd.

A building hasn't reached its full strength potential until the main part of the construction process is completed.
A building collapse during the construction process can be more dangerous, because of all the extra construction vehicles, machinery, materials and equipment.

Myanmar doesn't have tall buildings, compared to many other cities.
How well would have buildings that were a few times taller hold up?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tallest_buildings_in_Myanmar
Diamond_Inya_Palace is still the tallest in Yangon. - Estimated to be about 122 m (400 ft) tall

The building heights in Yangon are even more limited than those in Honolulu or SD.

Several cities can be affected by earthquakes, but they still build up big and tall.
Of course Tokyo, Shanghai, HK, Seoul, Singapore, Kuala_Lumpur, Jakarta, Mumbai, Melbourne, Sydney, Ackland, LA, SF & Seattle, aren't afraid to build much taller structures, despite many cities being in an earthquake zone.

Atlantis,_the_Lost_Continent (1961) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atlantis,_the_Lost_Continent#Plot Unfortunately, Atlantis,_the_Lost_Continent had a very limited budget and the special effects of the time were very basic. It's still an entertaining basic old Sci-Fi movie. https://archive.org/details/atlantis-the-lost-continent-1961
