Trailer Review: BLADE RUNNER 2049 (Teaser Trailer #1)

After years of rumors of a follow-up from Ridley Scott, an official announcement of a Denis Villeneuve directed film, and months of radio silence, the first teaser for the highly anticipated Blade Runner follow-up, Blade Runner 2049, has finally arrived. Set 30 years after the original, this film sees Ryan Gosling playing a new Blade Runner who finds himself searching for Rick Deckard, who disappeared 30 years ago after the events of the original film.

EDITORIAL: Denis Villeneuve To Bring Back 'Blade Runner' For A New Generation

Blade Runner 2049 is one of the most interesting films coming out next year. It is being directed by acclaimed filmmaker Dennis Villeneuve (whom we've been talking about all week), shot by iconic cinematographer Roger Deakins, and will even see Harrison Ford return to reprise his role as Rick Deckard. Ford is joined by Oscar nominee Ryan Gosling, who I am sure will be the "hero" of the movie, while Ford plays a similar role to what he played in The Force Awakens.

EDITORIAL: My Thoughts on Blade Runner 2

I'd known Blade Runner 2 was happening for a while before I finally actually SAW the original Blade Runner. I'd known that I was a big deal, but honestly, it wasn't until I saw the original that it really dawned on me: Blade Runner 2 is ACTUALLY happening. It's got a director, it's got a cast, and it's about to start filming in July. As someone who's just recently become familiar with how much of a sci-fi masterpiece Blade Runner is, it's pretty surreal, and I'm beginning to come to terms with it, and I thought, to cap off my other coverage on this movie, I'd give my thoughts on the project as it's looking so far. Like I mentioned before, the production really seems like it's happening, finally emerging from development hell after several years of ideas being kicked around. Originally, Ridley Scott was working with his brother, Tony Scott, on a prequel before Tony Scott's untimely death. Christopher Nolan was even sought after at one point to direct (I'd have LOVED to have seen that, though I'm not sure how good it would've actually been), so the project has changed a lot over the years. But what do I think of the project as it stands?

Side By Side: BLADE RUNNER - From Workprint to Final Cut

Welcome to Side By Side, a segment where we take a look at two comparable movies, be it remakes/reboots, sequels, reimagenings, or, in the case of today's subject, different versions of the same movie. Today, I'll be following up on my previous post about Blade Runner, which was more of a review, with this overview and thoughts on the many different cuts of this sci-fi classic.

Why Haven't I Seen That?: BLADE RUNNER

Welcome to a new segment on this site called "Why Haven't I Seen That?", a series where we talk about a must-see or iconic movie that we have never seen...until now. And in this inaugural entry of this series, I was to start with probably one of the biggest cinematic holes in my knowledge that I only just filled a few days ago, the sci-fi classic, and Ridley Scott's magnum opus, Blade Runner.
