   With the em dashes and the conclusion "This was not called execution. It was called retirement." I expect a lot of people would believe today that these title cards were written by an LLM.

      What’s sort of funny about that is there’s a normal thing whenever anyone who hasn’t seen it watches Blade Runner for the first time - often they come out feeling it’s kind of derivative, when the truth is that it feels that way because everything after Blade Runner copied Blade Runner.

      Add the initial title cards to that list too now, I guess.

         Same thing happened to Tolkien and fantasy literature.

            I read LOTR in the early 70s. There was nothing else like it then.
