I watched bladerunner for the first time last night. It was a very good movie but I don't understand why people dick ride it so much. It didn't seem groundbreaking at all.

Yeah doesn't seem ground breaking to someone seeing it for the first time almost 30 years after it's release, and has probably seen all the films that have been influenced by it since then, before seeing the source...

Groundbreaking was a poor word choice. I should have said exceptional.

In any case, how would Bladerunner be groundbreaking anyway? Have you seen it? It didn't seem to add anything that wasn't there in a many older sci fi's I have seen.

Of course I've seen it, and for when it was released it was miles ahead of other sci-fi in terms of plot, visuals, just the overall polish.

Which version of Bladerunner did you watch? 

Although all three of those movies are scifi, they are all attempting to do different things.  I feel like Bladerunner raises profound existential questions in much the same way as 2001, but maybe that's just me...

Go watch some other movies made in 1982 and tell me that the special effects come anywhere near Bladerunner.  Industrial Light and Magic did some good stuff with Star Wars, and Alien was well done, but pretty much everything else from that era is incredibly cheesy by today's standards.  The fact that Bladerunner still does an admirable job creating the neo-noir cityscape of a burnt-out L.A., even judged by today's standards, is saying something.

RocknRolla - 7/10

It was good, typical Guy Ritchie style, a little bit too similar to his previous work perhaps, this didn't quite live up to the heights of Lock Stock and Snatch. The story got a little too confused, and it seemed unfinished at the end, although there is a sequel in the works so I would look forward to that if it happened, I think it definitely does need a sequel.

Green Lantern

4/10

Drive 7/10

Revolver ?/10

Really can't rate this one until I see it again, I think I just about got it, but fuck a duck that was one confusing film.

Date Night - Not drunk enough to find that funny/10

Lars And The Real Girl - 8.5/10

What charming low key film this was, quirky indeed, amazing acting considering the unusual plot. The cast really managed to bring the emotions to the surface of this film, otherwise it could have been one hell of a flop.

Drive with Ryan Gosling

Great piece of film noir 8.5/10

^I watched Transformers 3 with the notion that it was better then the second, but I thought it was on par, if not worse than it.  The plot was complete crap - but I suppose I have to expect this when the second one ruined any continuation of a decent plot, and majority of the audience care more about fast cars, big robots, fast action, and hot women than a genuinely interesting or somewhat complex story.

Super Hybrid

5/10 watchable nonsense about a monster car that could change shape to any car that may have been a squid or alien and likes to eat people

It was Transformers, and it was robots beating the shit out of each other and destroying human shit that gets in the way. Awesome. What more do people want?
