    First billions/trillions then this - I think you need to cut down (on) patients
    With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion.

          This may be why I'm not all super awed by Tolkien (my verdict of Tolkien: good creator of new worlds, the books were good, nothing to get ridiculously excited about though).

          I do like me some Blade Runner though

          Remember, also, that Blade Runner was one of the first mainstream movies to deal with what is human.
          “I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”

            I rate Blade Runner as a very good movie, but it's not a top 10 classic in my book. I've always thought that the ending makes for a good sequel, but it's probably for the better that this new movie isn't that, 30 years later.

              Nah, being a newly patient I need to cut down on docs - have seen more the last 3-4 weeks than in my previous lifetime. Though, that dozen or two cute nurses I've met too was quite comforting

                I only watched it within the last 2 yrs. As a huge Sf fan I have to agree with you. Howver, what I like about is that it tries to tell a story rather than dazzle with special effects.

                  I'll only watch it if it has Tom Cruise or Keanau Reeves in it.
                  Within weeks they'll be re-opening the shipyards
                  And notifying the next of kin
