Old man, I was six when this came out. I know you had to be at least 40

Never seen the first one
Same.
Yeah that's what happened to me. I never got passed 2 mins. I think I downloaded that shit off Kazza Lite.
WOW... Any student of film would flip out to hear this. As a little bad ass kid in the projects, I used to watch it on cable just because it looked so pretty but when I got older I really peeped what it was about, I felt smarter afterwards. I actually sat down in a class of nerdy white dudes and argued merit points about if Ford was a real person or a replicant. Them cats was shocked.
For the kids and geeks Star Wars was lord but for the grown ups, Blade Runner was the gold standard for mature sci-fi. This film is a cousin to Alien. The mother of Akira. The father of Ghost in the Shell. The grandfather of The Matrix. On a Sunday afternoon, crank up the surround sound and enjoy it.
Damn...ok. But sounded like the old shit when I watched preview.
IT DID! If that was a reworking then it was a VERY WELL DONE project.
One of the... BEST. SCENES. EVER.
OR WAS IT? A move that humanized and schooled the audience about the killer they'd been rooting against for the whole film. Made me rethink my whole shit and now I can even see Deckard as the real heavy.
