Star Trek III: Spock Lives, Kirk's Son Dies, and Saavik Has Been Replaced With a Bland Robot
I really liked Robin Curtis as Saavik.

I just found her line delivery and movement to be very robotic, unlike Kirstie.

Worst. Title. Ever.
The Hunger games is a pretty fucking stupid title. For that matter, so is Cadbury, the beaver who lacked.

OH, and speaking of Philip K. Dick... BLADE RUNNER is a fucking stupid title... so is Serenity, and Wall E,
and...
(Disclaimer: All indications of titles being called fucking stupid does not necessarily reflect this author's
opinion of these films, I'm only addressing the TITLE and the title ONLY and not making any kind of
insinuations about the quality of the film at all)

To me it just sounds nonsensical. As I recall, there are no blades in the movie, no sign of Wesley Snipes at all.

They guys who tracked down A.I.s were called Blade Runners, and the movie is about one of them.

I know that but they're not chasing blades, they're not carrying blades. They're running, I will grant you that. But the whole "blade" aspect of the title just pisses me off.

I really doubt that its original title would've worked at all, though.  Blade Runner's actually a pretty good title though, as it kinda reflects the noir films it emulates.

I still think "Star Trek Into Darkness" sounds like the name of a Hawkwind song or something.
Correction: the coat hanger should be upside down.
