'So-called' is a particular bugbear of mine as in 'this so-called government' IT IS THE GOVERNMENT - THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT IT'S CALLED. It might be bad, indifferent, but 'government' is what we call it. 'The BBC's so-called new schedule', 'England's so-called football team' etc etc - it pisses me off.

I also read a review of Blade Runner that refers to Scott's 'nightmarish vision of an overpopulated future.' The fact that the Earth in Blade Runner is *under* populated due to mass emigration clearly escaped the reviewer's notice, even though this is central to the plot of the film.

Movie Reviews - By Barry Moron (From the Radio Times)

Blade Runner is a great film, even though its not a Western, and is full of unrealistic monsters and things. Ridley Scott's dysfunctional, nightmarish vision of a so-called overpopulated future contains a gritty portrayal of a down-trodden Private eye (Ford) who dreams of electric sheep. Or something. To be honest i haven't seen the film, but my daughter, Emma, told me it was too scary for the children, and made no sense.

1 out of 5 - is the score i would probably give if i wasn't such a bumbling old git whose inconclusive reviews never really give any information. Thanks to Sky.

Nice one!
