80 year old Han Solo running around is a joke, whether it’s in the future or a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away.

Gay.

The only problem I had with the film was that they set it too soon in the future when it should’ve been at least a century away.

That's the same problem the global warming crowd has had. They set it too soon in the future and now that none of their nonsense has come to pass they look silly.

I agree. A mediocre SciFi IMO.

They need to remake Dune.

That’s Ridley Scott. I still say that doesn’t jibe with the character and his decided lack of strength (and Scott himself seems to be somewhat tongue in cheek with the claim). I believe Deckard is human.

That I agree with. I read the book, and the movie was a disappointment.

Yes, but has he lost his humanity? Oooo, I, Sirius, am deep and so I will treat myself to another ginNtonix.

As was the miniseries.

There was also the hysteria during that period in the ‘80s when people thought Japan would come to dominate the United States, too. All the Japanese imagery is rather quaint.

Fear of China is probably overblown, too.

They did remake “Dune” as a series, but it was lacking. I still love David Lynch’s film version, even if some think it is a mess.

Yeah, for some reason I was thinking reboot rather than sequel. My bad.

Makes me think of how quickly these actors seem to age. It seems like just yesterday Indian Jones was cracking the whip against the Nazis. Now I don’t know, I picture him as this old guy who keeps falling off this blade he’s supposed to be running on

He could still be absolutely great as the aging blade runner with his "also aged wife." The interplay between the "old Blade Runner" and new ones and the fight between he and the establishment could be grand. He would be the intellectual side of the fight and the new young blade runners would be the physical and action side of the movie. It could be great.

I liked Blade Runner.

Living in such a dystopian society, I would think it difficult to maintain one’s humanity. All the well-adjusted people moved to the off world colonies, “A chance to begin again... !”

Maybe, maybe not. China is a lot more plausible than Japan, especially if because of their gargantuan population and that they own so much of us already.

Oh, heavens’ no. Please let there not be a reboot. It’s bad enough that they crapped all over Star Trek.

I mean he played a high school hot rodder in American Graffiti around 1969.

When he starts crooning to the girl, "Some enchanted evening, you will see a stranger, you will see a stranger across a crowded room ..."

(Had to be one of the funniest bewitching things on film ever!)
