Opinions are like @$$H01e$ everybody has one..I dissagree..I thought
the acting was acceptable and most of the FX were up to par..The only
FX I didn't like was the dolphin..But that would be difficult no
matter what..
As for memory measures in Gigs..That is a mathmatical definition of a
specific value..No matter how much time passes they memory will
still be valued in Megs, Gigs, Tera, and so on..It is the SR
undefined Megapulse that is out of place..If it the mere availablity
of so many Gigs instead of Tera..That is a choice JM took..He only
wanted to lose so much of himself..Better than becoming a zombie
datastore..And there has to be a limit on data compression and
miniturization at any
rate..
