A24 4,331 Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 Villeneuve doesn't come from a Hollywood CGI big blockbuster summer movies background. He made these little French speaking Canadian films that people in hip coffee shops talked about. I bet that during that time Villeneuve despised those SFX ridden pictures.

I'll never trust him again after that mess of computer generated pixels called KOTCS. It destroyed whatever illusion of "old school effects" he kept boasting the film was using.

A24 4,331 Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 Quote We can now reveal that a source close to the production of Blade Runner 2049 has informed us that the power of CGI will bring a Replicant character from the cult 1982 film back for the theatrical Blade Runner sequel. While we can’t be specific of which Replicant this will be; we have a few theories which we will discuss below. God, I hope not! http://www.theterminatorfans.com/exclusive-original-replicant-to-return-in-blade-runner-2049-as-cgi/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first negative news from the production. I'm dreading another Tarkin/Leia ordeal, but I'm hoping it's far more tasteful and reserved than that.

Quintus 5,399 Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 If I were excited about this film the biggest disappointment I'd have right now is that they just completely spoiled the unexpected inclusion of a character from the original. Bloody movie hype in 2017, it sucks arse. This is why I lost interest in following movie productions, because the producers don't give a fuck anymore. Surprise is worthless, it's bad for business.

A24 4,331 Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 Villeneuve promises same atmosphere in 2049: https://ca.news.yahoo.com/denis-villeneuve-living-blade-runner-173850277.html?soc_src=social-sh&soc_trk=tw "The first movie was a film noir, quite intense with melancholia and an existential crisis, so we are not far away from the thematics of the first movie, I will say. It's the same genre, the same atmosphere." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thor 7,497 Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 Good. I never expected otherwise. I'm sure Villeneuve delivers in that arena. But a SLIGHT skepticism has snuck in due to the "CGI faces" news bit that was released earlier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laserschwert 475 Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 Wouldn't it be weird if that CG replicant is going to be Deckard and it turns out that he was sometimes the real guy and sometimes the replicant in the first movie?

A24 4,331 Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 I don't believe Villeneuve is going for a CGI character, not after he said they can count the times on one hand when they need to resort to CGI . It indicates he's not really a fan of CGI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bes, I think you mean "implanted" Since Gaff is also a blade runner, it made no sense for him to let Rachel live, especially as Bryant said that she needed to be retired. Dagnabit, the film's just crap! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
