Okay, you didn't read that part. Look, you can't say "You SHOULD have seen it by now BECAUSE it was so awesome" because for me to KNOW it was awesome I would have had to SEE it to begin with! If I hadn't seen it, I wouldn't have known it was awesome enough that I just had to have seen it by now. That's why it's flawed! Rather, you can only say I should GO see it, as in tell me TO see it, because it is so awesome. THEN I know due to word of mouth (though I always got the impression that the movie was some huge space cliche about killer robots). Saying I should have seen it before due to information I didn't even HAVE is flawed. Why would I just KNOW that?
There, NOW you should get it. I'm being too analytical!

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
