Luckily I caught it on satellite instead of wasting actual money to see it at the theater.
While watching, I found myself wondering more than once if they were filming a remake of Total Recall or a remake of Blade Runner?
Bladerunner prequel.

I understand the sentiment. Bladerunner is in my top-ten of all time favorite movies. Since Michael Bay is doing it, expect lots of dazzling special effects and bling. That said, since it is a prequel and not a remake, maybe it won't be so bad.

Is it too easy a trivia question to ask what one MAJOR thing both Blade Runner and Total Recall have in common? 
Down to just a blue car now.

They are on the same shelf in my dvd/bluray collection? 
Or perhaps who wrote the original stories?

Yep. Too easy. Philip K. Dick.
Here's a quick exercise for The Google (if auto-complete is on):
a. Enter the five keystrokes do an and see what the top result is.

Kayse picked these up at a yard sale for $1.00. They look to be hand carved from wood (say "Made in Vietnam" on the backside). I think they're pretty cool.  Yeah, Kayse is definitely a Mopar girl.
Kayse can't keep up at all now. lol

Either that or she is just getting ready to drop a big boulder on you and is looking for inspiration.
