Finally watched it. It had some of the best visuals in the history of film and Sean Young was absolutely smoking. I greatly enjoyed the slow pace but didn't really like the cat and mouse chase at the end, even if it did make sense thematically. Great film overall
the ultimate mood piece kino
which version
Final cut
It's remarkable how the movie mixes traditional noir tone with sci-fi lighting, sets, production designs. It's the father of the cyberpunk aesthetics for a reason.
It's one of the worst movies ever made. A 40yo woman being cast as Rachel Rosen, a woman described being "too young almost childish", is just one of the reasons it's shit
Every single scene missed the point because the idiots making it just wanted a shitty generic action movie
>It had some of the best visuals in the history of film
It looks like shit. The visuals are almost worse than the "story".
Frick off
Everything you said is wrong.
What about it was wrong?
>what idiot would think a director had to stick to the book?
Yeah, guess I'm an idiot for thinking a screen adaptation will have any relation to the book it is ostensibly adapting.
>Yeah, guess I'm an idiot for thinking a movie format and book format work the same
Evidently you are.
>What about it was wrong?
Everything.
>I'm an idiot for thinking a screen adaptati
yes
>a woman described being "too young almost childish"
in the book?
what idiot would think a director had to stick to the book?
calling it rape is your interpretation.
calling her robot is a mistake.
replicants are no bots.
man rapes a robot, what a creep
she was clearly aroused and as a replicant she could have overpowered him if she wanted to
>scene where android seduces a bounty hunter as she has done so many times before she can't remember the number
>movie reverses it for no reason
In the movie why does that scene happen? Why are they meeting up? Rachel doesn't look identical to Pris so there's no reason for him to call her.
He's attracted to her.
He saw that she wanted to frick him but got into the whole "is it me who wants to frick him or the girl i got my memories from" mode. He just got a bit too assertive to make her feel that fricking him is ok. It's just the music got scary during the scene and that added rape undertones
Origami (get it???)
the book is better.
I strongly recommend Do Androids Dream. If you're interested in the themes throughout the movie like having a fake life with false memories or a malicious creator, there's a lot of reading out there you.
>Sean Young was absolutely smoking
she smoked in the film, yes.
Yeah, it's great. I was actually surprised how great it was as this board has shitty taste in movies.
It has its fair share of filtered haters on this board. Plotgays really should be gassed for the good of mankind, if there aren't huge stakes and at least three plot twists they complain that "nothing happened"
This sounds exactly like the people who got filtered by the killer
Blade runner 2049 is better because attracted all the midwit morons away from the undisputedly superior original
>shot on digital
now play the game
frick this game had balls. i remember you could rig the voight-kampf test, cover up your murders and one of the endings had you running away with a 14 yr old pleasure model... well, she was a replicant so odd are she was actually closer to 2 but you get the idea
And the soundtrack, son. Don't forget the soundtrack.
It's an incredibly good looking and moody movie with an aggressively mediocre plot that seems like it barely survived editing. I respect it but I'll never watch it again.
