Trailer for "Paycheck" on this page. Upcoming film based on PKD story. They almost mention him by name in the VO, referring to "the author who brought us 'Blade Runner' and 'Minority Report'". On second viewing, I realize that, in context, the whole sentence can be interpreted to mean that John Woo is that author, since we're not given anyone else's name. I'm not convinced that's unintentional. Um: grr.
Actually, I was initially impressed at the attribution, though it was nameless, and feel it's only a matter of time before Dick's name is a household world, snickering and all, thanks to all the film adaptations bubbling from his estate nowadays.
You're no doubt correct, anwyay. I seem to be extra-jumpy about names and attributions, and possible violations thereof, these days. Hmmf...
