FunnyML 81 Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 This can't be good...can it?I mean this is going to be a terrible film, right?Sounds like Ford should reprise his character once again, that's all. No word about being Deckard the main protagonist. Maybe they just plan a cameo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A24 4,327 Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 Maybe they just plan a cameo?I really think it will be more than that. You don't shout from the rooftops that you want Ford to star in your movie only to insult him by giving him a cameo. I'm not saying he will play the main part but it will be one of the major characters (sorta like the new Star Wars movie).What are the chances of BR2 being a great movie? Zero. I mean, we all have seen Prometheus, haven't we? Scott is no longer the director he was when he still made masterpieces (The Duellists, Alien & Blade Runner).And with comments and an attitude like, "Blade Runner 2 is just one of the 16 projects I have waiting in the pipeline", I fear the worst. He's addicted to 'work', not to making great movies. The Scott Free enterprise is a factory that constantly needs to churn out new products in order to maintain itself.He's also going to direct Matt Damon in The Martian, a Robinson Crusoe on Mars kind of survival story.Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A24 4,327 Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 Blade Runner 2 script is finished. "It's written and it's damn good. Of course it involves Harrison, who is a survivor after all these years - despite the accident (the 'Star Wars' injury). So yes, that will happen." Scott says he could direct the "Blade Runner" sequel after "The Martian," though that doesn't leave time for "Prometheus 2" currently slated for March 4th 2016. Scott admits: "That’s the problem, I've got a lot of ducks in a row. But they're all written." http://www.darkhorizons.com/news/33590/-blade-runner-2-script-finished-say-scott Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 So BR2 is just another one of many project Sir Ridley has lines up to keep himself busy.Where's the passion? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A24 4,327 Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 Ridley's passion is to have a full agenda and to keep on working every day. Whether it's Blade Runner 2 or another wine movie in the south of France, it doesn't matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, Scott likes his curly brunettes to be younger. I haven't seen Boardwalk Empire, but I recognise that brunette. What else is she in?Nothing that I've watched.

Naïve Old Fart 9,508 Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 Alex, I wasn't aware that Michael Deely cut "Blade Runner", but I see your point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A24 4,327 Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 Michael Deeley didn't cut Blade Runner, Richard, but the new producers who took over the production when it got into financial trouble did. Of course, they didn't edit the film literally but Ridley Scott didn't have final say (remember the famous voiceover, the last added scene, the deleting of a certain scene/clue in the middle of the film). He even got fired 'twice'! The DC is much closer to how Scott wanted to release the film originally (even though Scott didn't supervise that cut - hence the Final Cut).

Naïve Old Fart 9,508 Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 Thanks, Alex, but I did add "I see your point", meaning that I know the post-production history of "BR", but it's always good to be reminded of how a perfectly good film can get f**ked-up at the final stages by idiots that don't understand a single thing about film-malikg! "Future Noir" is such a good book.Xeonphobia sucks, eh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A24 4,327 Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 Well, despite the meddling, I don think the deleting of Deckard's reverie is an unintentional stroke of genius. I had to watch the theatrical cut (as you know, Richard, there was no other cut in the '80s) at least 5 times before I discovered the film insinuated that Deckard might be a replicant himself. The reverie that was reinserted in the DC actually makes it too obvious, even though many would disagree with that. In the TC, it was more of a innuendo and a nice bonus for those who really, really payed attention. It wasn't such a big deal as it was in later cuts. Yes, Paul Sammon's Future Noir: The Making Of Blade Runner is an essential read for every Blade Runner fan.Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A24 4,327 Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 Jake Gyllenhall is a promising rising actor. I more or less agree, but the guy ain't right for Deckard!Well, I'm the biggest Blade Runner fan in the world and Gyllenhaal (now that he is older) is on top of my list. He has the look, he can play the loner, he isn't necessarily sympathetic, he can play the everyman but also a believable detective, and when it turns out that he's a replicant then I'll buy that too! Note that I wouldn't vote for him if I hadn't seen Prisoners and Enemy.You being a non-Blade Runner fan, what is your argument against him?= Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
