Best movie of the 80's - Bladerunner I thought Bladerunner had a lot of depth. It really made you think (well, it made me think, anyway) about what it means to be human. Who was really more human, the 'human' who makes his living by killing, or the 'non-human' replicants who are willing to fight for their freedom? I admit the movie had a lot of weak points, and the original book was a lot better, but it was still better than anything I've seen in a while. Worst movie of the 80's - Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom (oops, I forgot to wear my flame shield!!) I HATED this one. It was violent and pointless. (yes, I know Bladerunner was probably grosser, but at least ther was a point to the violence. It made you realize that he really was killing. Sue Brunkow
