Blade Runner 2049 Announcement

Now I really want to see this. I love the original Blade Runner (not the Theatrical Cut), so I'm hoping this new one will be good.
 
Bladerunner is one of my favorite movies. I hope this one will be good, but so far I have not see a remake or reboot of any 20th century film that was worth watching, with the exception of Mad Max, and I attribute that to the fact that George Miller was directing.

I have my fingers crossed, but I am not expecting much.
 
I dont understand how Bladerunner and 2001 Space Odyssey are people's faves. tried to watch them again n again to see what i missed. guess they are too deep for me.
 
Directed by Denis Villeneuve, the director for Arrival which is going to get a bunch of Oscar nominations.

Yeah, the theatrical cut's voiceovers were really annoying.

Gotta bear in mind the release dates, 1982 and 1968, respectively. Back then these movies were mind-blowing levels of CGI, futurism, and impossibility. We've been saturated with CGI and technobabble for the last three decades so seeing a spaceship or flying cars/cyborgs isn't really a big deal.
 
I will hold some reservations on this considering how Prometheus turned out....but..who knows. At least it has Ford in it. (also..does that trailer solve the age long debate about his character?)
 
I dunno, I think it could be good. Director of Arrival which did/was good, Ridley exec producing, Goslingiwouldmansechshim is win

No spoilers but:

It does not. In fact, I think the trailer was deliberately vague about this.

BTW, it's been a great few years for Harrison Ford. Han Solo and now Deckard. And a great few years for us sci-fi geeks too. (Well, not so much with The Force Awakens, but at least it's a huge improvement over the Phantom Menace trilogy.)

Atleast it's not a remake

For a long-time cranky old man refusing to do sequels, Ford is now showing up in a lot of them, playing the old, tired, and cranky version of his former iconic self, training a new protege.

Not much seen in this, but it looks OK...possibly because that trailer doesn't show anything beyond the now all-too-familiar "Harrison Ford re-hashes a legendary character from his youth and looks really weird doing it" scene.

I hope it's good--BR is phenomenal--but going beyond the Dick story, I don't know (not that BR had all that much to do with the original story anyway....).
 
^Pretty clever.

And Dave Bautista is in it too. Something for the boys, straight and non-straight.
 
LoL!

Ford punched Gosling in the face

http://people.com/movies/ryan-gosling-says-harrison-ford-punched-him-in-the-face/

"But what was funny was, when it was over, they brought ice for my face, and Harrison pushed me out of the way and stuck his fist in the ice."
“He came by afterward with this bottle of scotch, and I thought, ‘Oh, I knew this was coming,’ ” Gosling shares. “And he pulled out a glass from his pocket, poured me a glass, and walked away with the rest of the bottle.
