Everyone seen the Blade Runner 2049 trailer by now? I'm a big sci-fi geek and have been a longtime reader of Phillip K Dick's books. And I also welcome any film adaptation or original sci-fi movie, so am excited for this movie. However, this trailer in particular is funny and kind of prophetic in its own right. I do believe, if I'm not mistaken, that the first 5 seconds of this trailer contains a TRAILER. That's right, a trailer trailer. Is this a new thing? That in itself is quite futuristic, a sign of things to come? We are so over saturated with content that our capacity has shrunk down to 5 seconds bursts? Content producers have to distill things down to this new level? Kind of interesting. #Movie

I'm as much of a geek for the new stuff as anyone else, but do the controllers on the Nintendo Switch strike anyone else as being far too small? They remind me of those horrendous things you sometimes see on an airplane. At first, while sitting down you freak out with joy inside at the thought of gaming during your flight.
