But... but I watched the film. It was awesome 
I really don't like Tom Cruise films, but he was damned good at the role. I know I'm sticking my neck on the line by saying this, but Blade Runner was slated when it was first released. This was at the very least better than Prometheus.

I didn't see the trailers, I think that's a key part at play here. I didn't know if it was action or romance, thriller or political spiel.
From that reference point, the story unfolded well, and while my friends who had seen the trailers were waiting for events to happen... this ruined it for them I think. In retrospect my favorite films have all been ones I went into with absolutely no preconceptions, Robocop for one.
The trailers show all of the main plot points unfortunately.

I would have thought the bad economy would have raped up the quantity of happy films, but a kick back into your step somewhat.

Lets face it, after 80 years of films theres not going to be a totally original story.
One of my favourite authors, Philip Pullman wrote the book that defined my childhood, he put in a disclaimer that he had stolen from a multitude of authors, for the mere act of reading a story generates its own iteration in every mind. All he could do was tell his one, through the lenses of language and story of every book he'd ever read.

He was admitting the futility of originality in this day and age.
