Blade Runner Appreciation Thread

Because it's on TV and it's my favorite fucking film ever.

Appreciate.

I keep it on DVD just to be sure.

Which one is this again?

That would be a resounding yes.

Reading the book should also be required.

please.

or i'll hurt myself.

even with all of its flaws, it's still one of my most beloved movies ever. i can't wait for the new version. when's that coming out?

oh really? i think you would like daryl hannah's makeup in it

You and me. Date movie.

flaws?

The flaws depend on the version.

Personally, I'm dead curious about the "new" version...

And mad props to Ridley for releasing the 1st "Director's Cut" that was shorter that the studio vers.

umm... yeah.


and I kind of need to see it a second time. you know... since I haven't seen it since I was a teenager

ehh... I wasn't in love with it either, but theres no way I can't say its a movie everyone should see at some point or other.

agree or disagree?

Darryl Hannah's hair.

Yeah, that's a great reason to find fault with one of the most seamless sci-fi films ever made.

Stoning Soli (as I've just taken to calling her in my head) isn't possible on really any level, still I can understand the general level of "everyone loves this, so I'm not buying it" that tends to happen. However, beyond something like Brazil, I don't think an 'outdated' futuristic movie has been so successful, imagery-wise, since the 2001/2010 movies.

I thought I loved it, but the last time I watched it, I was a bit bored.

are you shitting me? the editing needed a lot of work.

I still don't know what movie you guys are talking about. I get this one mixed up with Total Recall. Is Arnold even in this one?

really?

Really. Or is this the one with Harrison Ford?

Yes. Thats the one !

I knew I would figure it out eventually. I don't think I have seen it, though.
