Not sure how I feel about the baby goose, but since the original is one of my all time favorite movies I eagerly await the next.

Thinking about it, less than a year is not that long for advanced trailers these days...

He's 74 years old now...at some point they're going to have to start using holograms of Harrison Ford for these sequels.

I'm looking forward to the Air Force One sequel: Air Force Number Two: Get off my Colostomy Bag!

Hell yes.

The original is in the queue for this holiday season with my 15 year old, she's never seen it, but it's right up her ally and she like Syd Mead.

I had no idea they were making this.

and now I also no which movie I'm re-purchasing next on Blu-ray (assuming the original director's cut is on BR somewhere.)

as an aside - I was in Shenzhen, China some years ago on a rainy night and it looked like the set of Bladerunner. I really wanted to sell everything and move there.

You're weird dude.. That version of the future made me depressed and glad I don't live in a place like that.

But I am looking forward to this. Now if I can only forget about it till the week it's released next year...

It is an iconic film.

Based on the director, the cinematographer, the guy doing the music and this trailer, this does not appear to simply be a money grab, but something done in the spirit and quality of the original.

I believe it is the last big movie shot entirely with practical effects!

Anyone want to guesses on the plot?

I think Gosling is a "new" replicant and they will discover not just androids, but clones.

And there we will find that Deckard, not as a replicant, but as a clone, a clone who dreams of Unicorns.

it won't be that easy. This is going to wrap you up tight in guessing.

The original was a very good movie, and all of the different cuts really did change it quite a bit.

Well, sure I'm weird. Why else would I hang out here? And who wouldn't want to live in this?!:

Looks cool, but being a huge city alone makes it a crappy place to live IMO. Then there's the fact that it's a cyberpunk dystopia, which in the time that the movie came out was a bad thing, but today is just normal

Then there's the ridiculous, sun-blotting level of pollution, even worse than China's and far worse than anything in the Western world these days - the idea that the future would be so polluted may seem laughable at the moment, but after all that's changed this year, maybe the vehicles of the future will spew thick plumes of exhaust smog after all

It's going to be a big deal for sure. Not only the Director and Producer, but did you see the companies involved?

Warner Brothers AND Sony/Columbia? I can't remember the time 2 big film companies collaborated to make a film.

I'm excited to see it. Reminds me that I haven't seen the original in a long time, to putlocker I go!

Also, Blah blah blah, pollution, politics, flounder, blah blah.

I was just going to ask, yeah, is Deckard a replicant or not?

The movie is deliberately ambiguous on this point. There is a convincing case that he was.

I've read some of it. I guess I don't want to admit it.
