Shitfaced mom was LIVID. "Blade Runner?! I thought it was Knife Guy!"
It's soundtrack is my go-to "I need to fall asleep soon" remedy.
There are even fewer blades in the book, just electric sheep.

Blew my mind when it came out.
But like, as a movie? Not a good one! Plot barely exists, characters just sort of appear in a series of scenes. You occasionally get glimpses of interesting weird stuff and then it's gone and we're onto the next thing. And part of that is the fact that there are versions with narration and versions without. And honestly? The narration was bad. And cutting it out entirely also really hollows out the movie. Dunno if you really could have solved that challenge.
Yeah, that's the hotel...where I live...

I think it’s really good
But of the two Blades Runners, I much prefer 2049. One of my favourite films.
Dark City is one of my favorite movies, it's a shame it came out when the Matrix did. their surface similarities led to the Matrix eating Dark City's lunch
also a very good Kiefer Sutherland performance
2049 is too long but otherwise I really think it's the superior film
While Blade Runner 2049 might be the first time folks noticed his ability to play in a dramatic space, I'd argue the first Guardians of the Galaxy film is what showed people that he can act.
He's pretty good in the GotG movies!!
Absolutely true, I suppose it's more accurate to say he demonstrated an acting range in 2049
weird.
My favorite story on that is Hauer being stoked with his ideas on Batty’s lines but when he ran it by Scott, dude just 100% did not gaf
It's a big incredible movie with tons of WHOOOOOOMPs and I'm a sucker for big bassy WHOOOOMPs
Like the Deckard replicant idea is something he started talking about halfway through shooting the movie and Ford and the screenwriter hated it and pushed back immediately. I think it actively weakens the movie's actual commentary on what it means to be human and exist and form connections in the world, but Scott wouldn't shut the fuck up about it in the years since, forcing it to be kind of the main thing you have to at least nod towards any time you talk about Blade Runner, and it's never been an interesting question to me
Kinda like how he decided Aliens was actually about the nature of divinity and the origins of humanity or some shit (I hated and barely remember Prometheus and never saw Covenant so I might not be on the most solid ground for this complaint) instead of what we actually know it's about, a space monster messily killing idiots
