Re: Blade Runner

It truly is timeless. But I hate alternate endings and I wouldn't consider the movie to be as good without the voiceover and thus that film noir feel.

I saw it in a theater in London when it came out...

I was truly dumbstruck because NOTHING that looked or "felt" like that existed previous...at least that I was aware of...

I've avoided seeing it again, because well...like "Blood Simple" and "Reservoir Dogs" (to name two off the top of my head) ain't never gonna be "as good as the first time"...

Truly must see though...at least once...

It'll be interesting to see what you guys think of it, without the "Big Bang" factor of it's original uniqueness...

Re: Blade Runner

So many movies have stolen so much from it over the the last 30 years that people who see it for the first time now, perceive it somewhat as a By The Numbers Sci-Fi flick, when it in fact it is the progenitor of the core thematic concepts of the genre.
