I saw the prepublicity for "Sucker Punch" and it pushed ALL my buttons. The film literally put me to sleep. HOW can you make hot women in fetish outfits fighting giant samurai and dragons *boring*? It's a particular form of genius, I'll say that.

They are EXTREMELY entertaining children's cinema, and in the real world a demonstration of how merchandising extended the life and profits of an IP. As with everything, you'll always find it's more complicated.

E.g., if the Sinn Fein leader (an elected UK MP) ever appeared on tv, anything he said had to be dubbed DELIBERATELY BADLY SYNC'D, by an actor.

Star Trek's predictions for what's coming are usually rubbish but this... This at least looks like it's not ridiculous. Which is all the more amazing when you remember that when it came out, the episode that line is in was ILLEGAL TO BROADCAST in England, literally because of that line
