In fact, I kind of get sick of hearing that from producers... it gets my hopes up only to dash them to the ground! Yeah, Soldier was a bad made-for-TV movie that some how made it to the big screen. It may beat out Solo... but I ask you, what of Van Dame / Dolph Lundgren's Universal Soldier, Hmmm?

I think your readership would appreciate it greatly. I know I would.

There are still a few references in there, but not too many. So by my thinking any film that in some way incorporates Blade Runner into it automatically wins. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soldier_(film) Did you know that before Soldier came out, it was supposed to have strong ties to Blade Runner?

An inkling of a liking? I mean, you know it's very bad news when the mere presence of KURT RUSSELL is automatically way better than whatever you've got. A linking to deeming? An inkling of a liking?
