ymenard 54 Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 I have no idea how they can explain that Deckard, a replicant, has aged 30 years and hasn't reached the end of his life-span. Perhaps that he's a "Nexus-7", with human emotions but an infinite life-span. If so, why would he had got beaten by an inferior Nexus-6, Roy, who pitied him and kept him alive?

A24 4,335 Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 You're on the right track, ymenard.BTW, I wouldn't be surprised if Ford isn't going to play the Deckard we know. Why would anyone want to search for him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 Deckard will turn out to be human, but he had a child with Rachael. The first human/cylon hybrid. Possibly a next step in our evolution! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nightscape94 965 Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 Ryan Gosling will star in Blade Runner 2 - http://www.bbc.co.uk/newsbeat/articles/34848505Any interest I had has just taken a bit of a beating.It could have been worse. They could have Jai Courtney'd the main role.(Ryan Gosling) One of the more punchable actors workings todayI'm already tired of Matthew. Punch him!They should punch each other and make us all happy!

A24 4,335 Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 Gosling looks Aryan too. He would be perfect for playing an SS officer (In Search Of Oskar Schindler). Not every SS officer is a Hauer type. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A24 4,335 Posted January 6, 2016 Share Posted January 6, 2016 Thanks everyone! @TGP: It's mainly Scarbee's Fender Rhodes (called R.S.P.

Jay 37,364 Posted February 18, 2016 Share Posted February 18, 2016 It traditionally has been! Clearly they are trying to counter-program that by having something fresh and original in theaters among all the leftover crap. I wouldn't be surprised if it gets an early opening in NY & LA in late December 2017 to qualify for Oscars and all the other awards, though.

I thought that month was the dumping ground for failed productions American Sniper pretty much defied that notion last year. And with Deadpool doing even better than X-Men -- in February, no less -- that rival studios are encouraged to try winter releases for R-rated sequels/spinoffs/et al. It's not surprising at all.

Not sure what you mean by "real blockbusters", Alex. When "BR" was released, it had cost $28,000,000, opened at the height of the Summer, and was given showcase 70mm/6-track magnetic stereo screenings. It doesn't get more "real blockbuster" than that.

Wojo 2,453 Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 Blockbusters aren't always box office hits anymore but they started out that way. There were big box office hits that were called blockbusters based on ticket sales before Jaws but that became the first modern blockbuster of a new meaning. Hugely popular movies that people saw multiple times and talked a lot about. The summer tent poles, fast and exciting. Besides making a lot of money, they become cultural icons. Blockbusters became a genre in and of themselves. But now the studios try to create blockbusters and inflate the hype by spending a fortune on merchandise and advertising. What if the movie tanks or doesn't make what it's expected to? Is it still a blockbuster? Independence Day was a blockbuster, but two years or so later, the same team gave us Godzilla. Blockbuster and box office disaster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,364 Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 It's semantics. I'd say in your Godzilla example they were AIMING for a blockbuster but didn't get one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wojo 2,453 Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 I don't know, isn't that what people say? Armageddon is more science fiction with its twin shuttles and far our asteroid landscape and, I dunno, drilling on an asteroid, while Derp Impact shows more realistic space flight and global catastrophe from the impacts and a less happy ending. I'm afraid I only saw it once or twice and didn't care for it. Though at the time, a brother as the president was also science fiction. Progress...
