      I just got back from Blade Runner. Meh. It was more eye candy than plotline.

      Truth! Looked stunning but the story was stretched out about 40 minutes too long.

      Made in England, clothed in Japan, fed in America and drunk in Belgium !

              I've already lost hope in this movie, and I was SO looking forward to it.  😞

                    Because Star Wars never resorted to 'cute' creatures as comic relief before Disney? 😃

                              I'm in agreement with @dylantbmayes here. There's always been an element of child friendly characters in SW, just look at R2D2 and the jawas in ep.4 ffs. One (admittedly horrendous) misstep in the form of Mr. Binks and the gungans in general does not mean SW can't ever be kids friendly again, but there were an enormous amount of things with the prequels that were fucking dire, not just Jar Jar.

                              I can't for the life of me understand why people are ragging on the new trilogy. It's not meant to be high brow, it's meant to be fun. It's a million miles away from the prequels and the silliness is balanced by some new ideas, as well as some great referencing for us old heads. One space hamster does not a shit movie make.

                                Exactly right.

                                  Ok, to be expressly clear, the roll eyes was to signify what the "haters" ( to use the vernacular of youth) say. Maybe Internet sarcasm is dead if it has to be explained  ???

                                    I think 40 minutes too long is generous for Blade Runner. I looked at my watch about a dozen times. How many uncomfortable silences and close ups were there?

                                    They panned over the city enough times I think I could draw a map just from memory.

                                    I don't know what that screaming thing on the Star Wars trailer is, but I want two.

                                    I know violence is not the answer, I got it wrong on purpose

                                      Maybe so, but Darth Emo was pretty terrible.  That whole movie wasn't great, in fact.  I'm not optimistic about the next installment.

                                          I just cropped the photo of the space hamster and convinced my coworkers wife to adopt it…

                                          She's going to be so pissed at me when she figures this out...

                                            I think some of you are projecting a lot on that preview. So far, for me, the new trilogy is great.  Of course, it's not the original, but it is light-years ahead of the prequels.  I am pretty sure that movie is going to be enjoyable. If you let a hamster sour you completely, I think you are depriving yourself of enjoying the rest of the new trilogy, which is much truer to the original.
