Dennis Villeneuve is ok in my book. The scenario is written by Hampton Fancher (the guy who did the original screenplay for the original Blade Runner... but not much else it should be said) so... ok... and Michael Green... a guy who wrote some Smallville, some Everwood (?), some Heroes and some Kings for TV and.... Green Lantern. Damn.

Is Harrison Ford on a mission to sully the memory of every great movie he's ever been in?

Maybe I'm too young to appreciate it's significance, but I watched this movie a few years ago and I didn't get the hype. It's a pretty weird movie. I feel that way about a bunch of heralded 70s and 80s films.

It's more about the visual design and a handful of good scenes. It wasn't a very well put together movie otherwise.

First time I watched it I kind of felt the same, but on each subsequent watch it gets better and better for me. Definitely one of my favorite sci-fi movies.

Not sure why they need to do a sequel though..maybe stay in the same universe, and do a different story. I think it was said by Scott that this universe and the Alien universe are somehow loosely connected via the replicant/android angle or some such thing.

At it's simplest it's every crime noir detective film/book with beautiful directing/cinematography.

At it's most complex it's a very much man vs god movie. (I.E. man vs self of the four types of literature)
It's a very quiet film, but extremely powerful. There's just some scenes that can never be done better, Like Harrison fleeing from Roy Batty in that apartment complex while it's raining outside.


I love everything about it. My 2nd favorite movie at all time.

I'm even a little miffed that they finally said Decker was a replicant even tho there was many clues. I felt like that was a mystery that should have died with its creator.

I feel like if you franchise this movie out you kill the spirit of everything that the first movie had. The movie is just science fiction in the background, it's supposed to be a movie that makes us questions What does it mean to be human?what is reality?

Its a piece of Art that can hang alone.

It will not feel like a Blade Runner sequel without Vangelis (or someone just as good).

edit: Like any great movie, a happenstance perfect storm of things came together to make it happen. You had Scott who had just directed Alien; Vangelis, who had just scored Chariots of Fire; and Ford, who was uncontestedly the best action star of the 80's; and Webb, the guy who later helped write 12 Monkeys and Unforgiven.

Good luck getting all those elements to work together again- and at the same time to recapture the feel of the original movie.

My opinions on blade runner itself aside, what is the purpose of this or including harrison ford. Harrison ford used to be great in movies, but he's so far gone into the I don't give a fuck realm I actually consider him a liability when I look at a cast now. Unless he plays a senile old man, I really can't see why they'd want him around.

Rutger Hauer even improved his own death scene.

directors cut from the blue ray, I think that is the consensus now. You're really missing out, it is one of the best sci fi movies ever.

It's certainly possible to do a good sequel.

Just like it was possible to do a good Tron sequel, and then they had to ruin it by making the last third of the movie retarded.
