Let a smile and a PC be your umbrella as we commence with The April Showers Blogathon! For the next three days, bloggers will weigh in on their favorite movie scenes or plotlines revolving around rainy weather.

Just a minor correction. Blade Runner is from 1982, not 1972. And my review is up.

Of course it’s ’82. I don’t know what caused me to make such a silly mistake, esp. given that I saw the movie upon first release. The error is corrected, and your link is posted!
