Philip kaydick had a screening of blade runner with out most of the fx finished before he passed away and he absolutely loved it i think it would of blown his mind if he seen the finished product
@bWWd0 I saw it in the theater when first released. I immediately loved it. And yeah, it got panned because it was something never quite seen before. So what For those of us who got it -- and there were many -- it's been our favorite ever since
'Its too bad she won't live. But then again who does?' That line, right there is the core of this whole wonderful movie. It has haunted me for... more than forty years now I suppose.
Y'know, if they put this movie back together and it played for 6 hours in length, I would immediately order a copy. You can never have too much Blade runner, or The (Carpenter) Thing or David Lynch's "Dune". Classics one and all. Don't bother replying - don't care what you say, because I'm right.....
I saw the original in the theater in 1982 & then again for the 10 year anniversary while in college in 1992-the “directors cut”-no narration, unicorn dream sequence & a dystopian ending. I liked it. There are scenes here Ive never seen.
Looked like they were going to introduce a whole subplot with his character pursuing Deckard but decided to drop it since it would have just confused the audience.
The deleted scenes do add to the movie. They show more of the dystopia and several of the plot points are explained. And, having Blade Runner Dave Holden survive to say "they're just like us!" is a huge revelation.
it's too on the nose, he is like a completely different character, less composed, etc... a bullet might do that to one but still? i agree with most cuts
It's great to see them all this way, but I agree: The movie really is better without them. Scott left them out of even his revised cuts, and you can see why.
This is exactly how I felt. It was the right decision, but to see these scenes now so many years later? What a treat for Blade Runner fans like ourselves.
I still have the ticket stub when I first saw the movie at the Americana Theatre in Van Nuys California when I was 17 years old in 1982. I walked out of that theater in complete awe of this masterpiece! it is still to this day my favorite movie.
I've never watched 2049. Thing is, I worship the original to such a degree, I think seeing the sequel will spoil that forever. Of what I know some ridiculous stuff in there, Deckard is human, Rachel has a child, whatnot... doesn't sound too respectful to the original where Deckard's 'androidness' was strongly suggested
@@monohedron9633 My friend, I had the same concerns. But in my humble opinion, they handled it very respectfully. It augments, rather than corrupts. To say too much would spoil it, but yes, new ideas are introduced, and no, major questions are never neatly ‘answered’ (I definitely would *not* have liked that). Ford said it was the best script he’d ever read. The cast did a superb job, with a tip of the cap to Gosling for stepping up for what must have been a pretty daunting role. And Villeneuve’s vision is just beautiful. It’s a sublime piece of work, and it gets better with repeat viewing. A major achievement that deserved more recognition. And this is coming from a lifelong ‘this better not piss all over my memories’ blade runner fan. At least, I think they’re my memories…
@monohedron9633 they don't know if he's human, i think they sway more to him being a replicant. It's a completely separate movie and Ford is hardly in it, if anything Ford kinda derails the movie a bit
I realize how lucky I was having seen this movie in the cinema when it came out in 1982, I was 22 then. I was blown away and it stayed with me until today, few people talked about it and the Internet was freakin science fiction at the time. It kinda passed under the radar. It introduced me to P. K. Dick and that was another Door that opened for me.
I seen a show in Scotland a few weeks ago. It was the movie Bladerunner but with a live musical orchestra. It was spiritual. The best possible way to experience this masterpiece. Filled with like minded people of a certain vintage. So good to see the love for this movie continues now as strong as ever.

Thanks for the video. I can understand why all those scenes were cut but I'd keep the city fly-by sequence. As someone already said it helps to build the world "mood" in a way that the final cut can't achieve.
First of all I want to thank Roy Batty that made these deleted scenes available for us. In my opinion this is one of the best sci-fi movies ever made. When I meet young sci fi enthusiast who haven’t seen blade runner I always tell them to watch it. And most of them don’t get it. Saddens me in a way, that they don’t see the beauty of blade runner. Now a days they just freak on the great special effects. But blade runner had it al. Great sound track, mystery, great ambiance, great acting, good sfx. And these deleted scenes gave on some things a different perspective very interesting I must say. Good day to you all my fellow sci fi lovers!
Not a huge Sci Fan fan, but the main reason I've never watched BR beginning to end is the dark lighting. Movies like that make me feel like I have vertigo or something. I'm still going to power through it though. Fantastic story and acting
@ well that says it doesn’t it, the 1st thing you say is that you are not a sci-fi fan. But this movie must trigger something in you because you did several attempts to watch it.
@mrt7152 Not a huge Sci Fan fan, but I love Predator. I like time travel movies too, but something about movies filmed with dim lighting, rain, and darkness that just makes it tough for me. I hate missing things
@@donaldshotts4429 I remember seeing predator for the first time when I was a kid. That was something, that was actually a new kind of genre. Like sci-fi horror, I really enjoyed that movie.
This isn't the usual sci fi fare of spaceships and laser battles. It's really a film noir set in near future LA instead of 1940s LA, with sci fi being the vehicle to convey sci fi themes about humanity, something Philip K. Dick did all the time. People didn't get this film in 1982, either, nor did they get the sequel in 2017 for that matter. Both films were box office bombs, but both age like fine wine and eventually gain recognition over time. I'm very glad the film makers managed to get them made.
I remember seeing Blade Runner in the theater when I was a teenager. I thought it was a great film except the editing was very choppy and it made it confusing. I think that’s the reason why there’s so many different versions. But I wish they could get the editing just right because it could be a fantastic movie. And it’s a perfect example of a different time. A perfect example of a 1980’s style of a retro future. Oh, and I’ve never seen these clips before especially the one with Holden in the hospital. I can see why they were cut, but thanks very much for that. A real eye-opener.
What makes art ? It is not an accident. This is still fresh . It is a thrill to revisit it. You knew it was very good, but did not know it was to become priceless.

I used to fly into Taipei airport. Well I still do but the journey is different now At night the car journey from the airport to town along a very dark often rainy road that passed a large petrochemical plant belching huge flames as they were flaring off unwanted gas. The plant lower than the road to the left was so evocative of the film I often felt privileged to be living this and somehow emotional.
So deeply human of how Roy Batty (Rutger Hauer), contemplates, accepts, and emotionally express upon his face, how he empraces his death-- as he lets go, and we see the white dove (perhaps his symbolic spirit) flying upward and away into the vastness of falling drops of rain. So so endlessly and grippingly poetic.
I'm glad I finally got to see the full cleaned up "Holden in ICU" scene when it was released, and I'm also glad that Scott cut it from all versions of the movie. It kills the pacing and doesn't give us much new information we actually need. And, frankly, Morgan Paull (R.I.P.) overacts the part.
@@curtisnewton895 "the scene doesn't fit the rest of the movie." I agree. Too chatty, hackneyed dialogue, too much exposition. And yes, for a guy millimeters from death, he seems awfully lively in that container.
have always enjoyed the original cut more. the unicorn thing introduced in the director's cut seemed 'clever' at the time but actually messed up the story
I wish that these scenes hadn't been deleted because they answered some questions while raising or amplifying others. They also added to the mood/atmosphere of the film. I saw it in the theater when it was first released, and I absolutely loved it! But I always wanted a little more, as though something were missing. ❤😊
It was a revelation. Somehow I knew that science fiction was being treated as a serious genre. The movie on the big screen is glorious and darkly beautiful. Up to that time only Star Wars and Close Encounters was that beautiful. All in their own way. 2049 lived up to the original. So glad Villeneuve did it. And now hes directing Arthur Clarke's Rendezvous with Rama. I've read the book. It should be amazing. Like 2001 shot inside a 100 mile long cylindrical spaceship with land masses and oceans and weather, but missing the aliens who built it. If Villeneuve pulls it off, and im sure he will, it will be dazzling.
Fabulous to see some v rare scenes indeed such as Holden in his life support capsule and the scene of Deckard being secretly surveilled, not to mention some of the clearest shots of Deckard's Microma watch (looked pretty battered and maybe not actually running!). Thank you !
Wow! I absolutely loved this film when it was first released. I viewed it in a cinema in Shinjiku, Japan. It was in English dialog but with Japanese language "side-captioning". What a cherished memory! These scenes transported me back to my youth forty years ago. Thank you!
Wow. How have I missed this? Especially since this post has been out for seven years. I've never seen these scenes before now. Wow. I wish they had included these scenes in the movie. It also proved the theory that Dekkard may also be a Replicant. Thank you for posting this.
This scene would be more unsettling if he were only able to communicate through a machine. Like in some kind of vegetative state, only conscious thanks to technology, waiting for his demise.
This film is far better than it has any right being. It's dystopian and dark. I think audiences in the 80's didn't appreciate a dark future. Everyone was trying to see the light. But a little darkness is needed to help balance the light.
Uh no the message of blade runner is that humanity is not an "innate" quality to be taken for granted in some people and not others, but something that's earned, developed throughout a life by one's choices and experiences. In a metatextual sense the replicants are a rough stand-in for any group of people society exploits to do it's dirty work and so are dismissed and dehumanised. The anxieties of the "humans" aren't just that the replicants are rogue, but in a creeping awareness that there's not really a difference between those who get to call themselves "real" humans, and the replicants who are used as slaves. By the end roy isn't a vengeful machine but melancholy and merciful, showing replicants can be more human than the people who think they're "real" but would so easily see another being as beneath them. The same theme was also nailed down in a different way in the sequel. K and Roy both end their stories doing something that elevates them above the horrible circumstances they were made to serve.
This was fantastic - thank you! It transported me right back to the first time I saw the movie shortly after its release. I’ve never seen any of these scenes, or very little of them. Also, I forgot how well done it was. Thank you Ridley Scott!
I feel like an archeologist opening the burial chamber! Awesome cinematic artifacts! I do agree with the editors though in leaving these sequences out of the final release .
My parents took me to see this when it came out and we saw it at a drive-in movie! Bad resolution, horrible sound from one speaker hanging on the window yet still I thought it was the best movie ever and still is.
None of these are deleted scenes they were all in every version I've seen since it was in theaters cable VCR DVD blueray etc etc . Thanks for the memories.
One of the things I love about this film is that so many of the scenes are real places you can visit in LA. Sebastian's apartment building, that tunnel, etc. And when the cop check Deckard's ID and says to him "Have a better one," that line is a line used all the time on the TV show Bosch, which is about a modern LA cop in the 2010s-2020s time frame, same as this film. Other sci fi films said, "In the future you will live in these cool cities on distant planets!", and this film says, "You will still live in a depressing version of Los Angeles in 2019-2020s right here on Earth, deal with it."
In the original theatrical release, there was a scene with Deckert and Rachel. The camera showed his face for a moment, and he had the spooky, reflecting eyes as the owl, and Rachel. There was no doubt.
Ridley Scott you genius! After all these years I still get shivers down my spine seeing The Tyrell Corporation building model you made with that ominous music and foreboding skyline;
...Thanks for all these clips, nicely put together and thoroughly enjoyed by us all. Some bits I was aware of and some not, it could have padded out the story but slowed the pace. I love the European edit which had the narration and kept the gory parts in - probably due to the version I saw first at the time. Love it all, 💯💯💯
Always struck me as funny. "Deckard's a deep one," Gaff credits him and his quality as a Blade Runner. In the same scene, Deckard's all "who?" "what?" and not connecting dots. While his injured colleague already has all the insight and answers. "God."
Those extra scenes with dialogue that really did not add anything were best left out. But the other scenes w/o dialoge should have been included just to have 15 minutes more of that awesome dystopic ambience and music.
When I was a kid I asked my grandpa why there was fire coming out of the tops of those buildings and he said it was so the helicopters could light their cigarettes.
In 1982-1983pittsburgh PA, 8th and freshman yr of high school was all about blade runner. Even getting a similar trench coat to wear. Went to Catholic school so I already had the dress shirts and ties.
About 15 years ago I still remember seeing a comment on a You tube video about Bladerunner, I'll never forget it. The person basically stated that he was one of Blade Runners film crew members and that he and some of the film crew once witnessed Harrison Ford and the Director of the film crash through the set and Ford was completely naked. The two were fighting about something. Ford was obviously one drugs of some kind. During another part filming, Ford couldn't bring himself to slap a woman, that 12:10 scene and the film Director started cursing at Ford and said, quote, "This is how you do it!!" and the Director physically slapped her a few times, like really hard slaps, and she screamed in pain and fear. And then film Director became visibly "sexually aroused" because his pants showed a definite erection. He then demanded Ford to do the scene right this time. She really was crying during that scene. These were just some of the "calmer incidents" that took place during the filming of Blade Runner.
Deckard,-It takes one (Replicant) to know one. “Replicants” have a spirit (life) and a body (vessel), but unlike us they don’t have a soul (inner being), which is feelings, family, history. Making them ideal psychopathic material.
Agreed … with these scenes, it feels much more like a procedural investigation, not to mention Deckard would’ve been running over evidence with his detective partner … who is theoretically as smart & resourceful as Deckard is, albeit with 1 too many encounters with the replicants.
I guess I could argue that the scene with Holden might not mesh as well as the flow of the story but i really like it the other scenes are are pure gold
I totally agree to all the cuts, but very interesting to watch. The one Gaff scene felt like bad AI, really would have changed his character to include. How is this gem 7 years old, but oldest comment is one year old, and most comments just the last few days?
JESUS CHRIST! Is this the unrated directors cut we all wanted to see in 1992? I saw the original in 1982 in theater & the 1992 decade later anniversary at the Bijou Art Theater in Oregon. This looks incredible! Where is it available?
Still blows my mind at just how freaking awesome this movie is - it's just absolute perfection
Philip kaydick had a screening of blade runner with out most of the fx finished before he passed away and he absolutely loved it i think it would of blown his mind if he seen the finished product

This movie is an absolute masterpiece. It was way ahead of its time. This is true science fiction.
yeah but box office did not reflect that on this one and sequel so...

Agreed. It took me seeing it 3x when it first came out to get it. I think the sequal is just ass good, maybe better.
This movie has aged so well. One of the greatest scifi movies ever. Easily in my top 5.
first zears it was like hee? with the most who seen it. it just a decade later came to be a cult scifi. same as the first dune movie.

Don't forget "You've done a _man's_ job."
Just as memorable as Roy's _tears in rain_
For me it's Tyrell meeting Roy in the Prodigal Son moment "The Light that Burns Twice as Bright Burns Half as Long"
"Stop right where you are. You know the score, pal. If you're not cop, you're little people."
100% agree. I have no idea why, but it stays with me after 30+ years.
This IS the greatest Sci-Fi movie of all time. Ageless.

That early scene with Deckard flying over the city was so atmospheric. It immersed me more into the world than most scenes not cut from the movie

Agreed. Oddly enough they're my favorite scenes in Blade Runner. The music combined with the dystopian cityscapes is awe inspiring.

They would likey explain the world better but also kill the pacing of the movie. Maybe more interesting as these little vignettes.
A fan edit? with some AI segues to make it work? I'd watch it
I wish that these scenes hadn't been deleted because they answered some questions while raising or amplifying others. They also added to the mood/atmosphere of the film. I saw it in the theater when it was first released, and I absolutely loved it! But I always wanted a little more, as though something were missing. ❤😊
Makes me remember what it was like watching this movie for the first time.
It was a revelation. Somehow I knew that science fiction was being treated as a serious genre. The movie on the big screen is glorious and darkly beautiful. Up to that time only Star Wars and Close Encounters was that beautiful. All in their own way. 2049 lived up to the original. So glad Villeneuve did it. And now hes directing Arthur Clarke's Rendezvous with Rama. I've read the book. It should be amazing. Like 2001 shot inside a 100 mile long cylindrical spaceship with land masses and oceans and weather, but missing the aliens who built it. If Villeneuve pulls it off, and im sure he will, it will be dazzling.
Me too!
I was working at a studio when this came out. We took the afternoon off to see it. We were never the same, BIG influence.
Fabulous to see some v rare scenes indeed such as Holden in his life support capsule and the scene of Deckard being secretly surveilled, not to mention some of the clearest shots of Deckard's Microma watch (looked pretty battered and maybe not actually running!). Thank you !
Wow! I absolutely loved this film when it was first released. I viewed it in a cinema in Shinjiku, Japan. It was in English dialog but with Japanese language "side-captioning". What a cherished memory!
These scenes transported me back to my youth forty years ago.
Thank you!
Yeah. I saw most of these clips at a comiccon a while black without music. Nicely done!
Wow. How have I missed this? Especially since this post has been out for seven years. I've never seen these scenes before now. Wow. I wish they had included these scenes in the movie. It also proved the theory that Dekkard may also be a Replicant. Thank you for posting this.
This scene would be more unsettling if he were only able to communicate through a machine. Like in some kind of vegetative state, only conscious thanks to technology, waiting for his demise.
So there was a Basic Instinct moment before there was Basic Instinct!
I was thinking the same thing. What exactly was the direction there? Lol
I loved seeing these! They add to the story!
This film is far better than it has any right being. It's dystopian and dark. I think audiences in the 80's didn't appreciate a dark future. Everyone was trying to see the light. But a little darkness is needed to help balance the light.
The message of Bladerunner: How we treat our creations is how they will treat us.
Or better yet, don't create anything that can think.
Uh no the message of blade runner is that humanity is not an "innate" quality to be taken for granted in some people and not others, but something that's earned, developed throughout a life by one's choices and experiences. In a metatextual sense the replicants are a rough stand-in for any group of people society exploits to do it's dirty work and so are dismissed and dehumanised. The anxieties of the "humans" aren't just that the replicants are rogue, but in a creeping awareness that there's not really a difference between those who get to call themselves "real" humans, and the replicants who are used as slaves.
By the end roy isn't a vengeful machine but melancholy and merciful, showing replicants can be more human than the people who think they're "real" but would so easily see another being as beneath them. The same theme was also nailed down in a different way in the sequel. K and Roy both end their stories doing something that elevates them above the horrible circumstances they were made to serve.
Funny how Deckard quotes Treasure Island in Blade Runner 2049
i don’t understand the second one but this one ❤ wake me up to this clown world
This was fantastic - thank you! It transported me right back to the first time I saw the movie shortly after its release. I’ve never seen any of these scenes, or very little of them. Also, I forgot how well done it was. Thank you Ridley Scott!
I feel like an archeologist opening the burial chamber! Awesome cinematic artifacts! I do agree with the editors though in leaving these sequences out of the final release .
My parents took me to see this when it came out and we saw it at a drive-in movie! Bad resolution, horrible sound from one speaker hanging on the window yet still I thought it was the best movie ever and still is.
None of these are deleted scenes they were all in every version I've seen since it was in theaters cable VCR DVD blueray etc etc . Thanks for the memories.
One of the things I love about this film is that so many of the scenes are real places you can visit in LA. Sebastian's apartment building, that tunnel, etc. And when the cop check Deckard's ID and says to him "Have a better one," that line is a line used all the time on the TV show Bosch, which is about a modern LA cop in the 2010s-2020s time frame, same as this film.
Other sci fi films said, "In the future you will live in these cool cities on distant planets!", and this film says, "You will still live in a depressing version of Los Angeles in 2019-2020s right here on Earth, deal with it."
This is in my top 5 movies of all time…and nothing will shake it out.
Holden in the hospital. Great clip!
This was superb,my favourite film ever,and many scenes here I’ve never seen before,fantastic video.
In the original theatrical release, there was a scene with Deckert and Rachel. The camera showed his face for a moment, and he had the spooky, reflecting eyes as the owl, and Rachel. There was no doubt.
Ridley Scott you genius! After all these years I still get shivers down my spine seeing The Tyrell Corporation building model you made with that ominous music and foreboding skyline;
Just amazed as how well this movie has aged from when I first saw it when released. Downtown LA actually looks like this now I'm thinking....
...Thanks for all these clips, nicely put together and thoroughly enjoyed by us all. Some bits I was aware of and some not, it could have padded out the story but slowed the pace.
I love the European edit which had the narration and kept the gory parts in - probably due to the version I saw first at the time.
Love it all, 💯💯💯
Everything about this movie is just pure cinematic perfection
Philip K.D., Vangelis, Ridley Scott, Harrison Ford... What a show!
More like the book's feel and message with the scenes in.
It saw it in 1982, I was 16 years hold. Thank you for this video, which I did not know ❤
Love this….wish they were added in again
Always struck me as funny. "Deckard's a deep one," Gaff credits him and his quality as a Blade Runner. In the same scene, Deckard's all "who?" "what?" and not connecting dots. While his injured colleague already has all the insight and answers. "God."
I use any excuse to come back to this film, even a few scenes on TH-cam.
Those extra scenes with dialogue that really did not add anything were best left out. But the other scenes w/o dialoge should have been included just to have 15 minutes more of that awesome dystopic ambience and music.
When I was a kid I asked my grandpa why there was fire coming out of the tops of those buildings and he said it was so the helicopters could light their cigarettes.
This scene looking at the photos, same feelings as apocalypse now looking at the dossier. Brilliant film making both.
There's so much product placement in this movie... before product placement was a thing.
There was already product placement when this was made.
List, please
I never saw it as product placement, more of a subtle warning.
@@karenmossbryan7932 Well, there's Coke, TDK, Atari, Pan Am...
SO much excellence cut out from the final film. Ridley Scott is releasing a 4 hour cut of 1492 - Conquest Of Paradise. It's THIS what we want in full!
"I've seen things you people wouldn't believe......."
This video was uploaded 7yrs ago?! So Glad I found this.
In 1982-1983pittsburgh PA, 8th and freshman yr of high school was all about blade runner. Even getting a similar trench coat to wear. Went to Catholic school so I already had the dress shirts and ties.
I saw it in Regent Theater my man!
@@blackincredible Regent Square?
That's right the Regent was in East liberty
@@blackincredible don't think I ever went to a theater in 'sliberty. I think both may be closed now.
About 15 years ago I still remember seeing a comment on a You tube video about Bladerunner, I'll never forget it. The person basically stated that he was one of Blade Runners film crew members and that he and some of the film crew once witnessed Harrison Ford and the Director of the film crash through the set and Ford was completely naked. The two were fighting about something. Ford was obviously one drugs of some kind. During another part filming, Ford couldn't bring himself to slap a woman, that 12:10 scene and the film Director started cursing at Ford and said, quote, "This is how you do it!!" and the Director physically slapped her a few times, like really hard slaps, and she screamed in pain and fear. And then film Director became visibly "sexually aroused" because his pants showed a definite erection. He then demanded Ford to do the scene right this time. She really was crying during that scene. These were just some of the "calmer incidents" that took place during the filming of Blade Runner.
Mean's alot. Thank's for this. 😉
Apenas Vangelis poderia compor a trilha perfeita para este filme.
This is nice. Makes much more sense about the movie. So sad dystopia in future.
Fabulous soundtrack by Vangelis. All these scenes should be put back in a re release!
Would love to see a version of this film with every deleted scene in it.
Some of that dialogue helps the story more.
Great soundtrack, by Vangelis I believe.
I think I have seen a few of these clips in different versions. "I am the business"
One of my favorites
Deckard,-It takes one (Replicant) to know one.
“Replicants” have a spirit (life) and a body (vessel), but unlike us they don’t have a soul (inner being), which is feelings, family, history. Making them ideal psychopathic material.
Turns out, replicants do!
Such a timeless masterpiece
Holden doesnt fit, but a lot of these longer takes/slower moments would really add to the atmosphere of the movie.
Agreed … with these scenes, it feels much more like a procedural investigation, not to mention Deckard would’ve been running over evidence with his detective partner … who is theoretically as smart & resourceful as Deckard is, albeit with 1 too many encounters with the replicants.
I guess I could argue that the scene with Holden might not mesh as well as the flow of the story but i really like it the other scenes are are pure gold
I enjoyed them, but Holden looked like he was wrapped in packing material, lol, like the kind you use to pack glassware 😅
He knew to absolutel perfection!
Makes me want to travel back to the 80's
nice one ...never saw these
Was way ahead of it's time
Perfect scifi…especially without the voice over or these scenes lol
Sensational!!!
Within a couple of years, AI will be able to generate endless additional scenes to this movie. Happy days
Thanks for sharing!
These scenes are from the workprint released back in 2008 or 2009.
The treasure island connection ...i dream of cheese ....toasted
many's the long night I've dreamed of cheese .. toasted mostly...
@@billyparnell9296 thankfully - not dreaming of " electric sheep" anymore
I totally agree to all the cuts, but very interesting to watch. The one Gaff scene felt like bad AI, really would have changed his character to include.
How is this gem 7 years old, but oldest comment is one year old, and most comments just the last few days?
No idea how this video has just taken off in the past few weeks, I hadn't changed anything. Just the vagaries of YT I guess
JESUS CHRIST! Is this the unrated directors cut we all wanted to see in 1992? I saw the original in 1982 in theater & the 1992 decade later anniversary at the Bijou Art Theater in Oregon. This looks incredible! Where is it available?
The Bijou in Eugene?
I remember watching Trainspotting there.
Meet The Feebles
@@bozo5632 The Dark Backward
The thing about this movie is there no right version. It's always slightly new again
