Spielberg is playing with people's expectations. Those who think this movie will be less violent than the original are in for a shocker. He both knows exactly what he is doing and will make a movie that will disturb.


Explain AI: Artificial Intelligence then. All Spielberg had to do was end the movie at spoiler[David and Teddy being trapped under Coney Island looking at the Blue Fairy while being frozen.] Instead, we're treated to a mushy extra 15 minutes of spoiler[Future mechas exploring a ice-covered earth, extracting David from the ice, and then cloning his mother, oh, but she lives for only one day!! Wait, wut?] type of deal.

ERGH!!!! Either end the damn movie on one sad note, or give us a happy ending, not do a double whammy!!!
