Would you want a real life pre-crime (Minority Report)?

[Pax Romana]

Where murder no longer exists, but every once in a while an innocent person will be convicted?

How left the sock drawer open again?

Yeah, I liked the movie. I'm currently reading a collection of short stories by Philip K. Dick, the story that inspired Monority Report is in the collection. Not to mention Total Recall, Paycheck,[i/] and Screamers...

You need to see the movie, George. It has a great look, the effects are creative, and Cruise is very good.

Pre-crime is directly opposed to the concept of innocent until proven guilty. So, no, fuck that nonsense.

eta-- but yeah, it's a good movie. That part with the eyeballs is so gross.

We had a real live "Minority Report" with the Iraqi invasion by George W. Bush.

No thanks.

 

[PLYMCO_PILGRIM]

No. Why?

Absolute power corrupts absolutely.

I have seen a lot of movies. There are also a lot of movies I haven't seen. This is one of them (obviously).

I'll keep an eye out for it . . .
