Same here, watched all fan made videos, doc's available, we try to watch it 1-2 times a year and every time you discover something new (small details mostly). About to build a home cinema with an 165 inch screen and watch it again, can't wait :)

@@ArkangelPygar - Wasn’t it determined that The Terminator (1984) was ripped off from an episode of the original Outer Limits series? James Cameron was even sued over it.
I've said it before and I will say it until I am blue in the face: amazing looking films have been around since the 1920's. Great cinematography and production design did not begin with the advent of CGI. The dreamlike work of such visionary directors as Fritz Lang, Busby Berkeley and Joseph von Sternberg goes back to the 1920's and '30's. Design is design. Storytelling is storytelling. Genius is genius. You will not find it in a computer but you might find it in the person using it. If any of today's films hope to be as timeless as BLADE RUNNER, their creators will recognize this essential truth.
1982 , all doors were open few year ago (Star Wars, Alien...). Free to think, stories , free to show and good effects. So good directors made monstrous films. After 1995 , adults films ended, slowly.
Never tire of revisiting the original; still remember sitting in the theater opening day; formative experience. Fun to see Trumbull and Mead as young masters.
Being a resident of L.A. made seeing this movie was eerily similar to the present reality. Mr. Scott has well portrayed the emotional tener of the city.
the reasons for it not being a box office hit were a) the protagonist'deckert' was actually the villain. due to him murdering the replicants. aka hes not a cop but a hitman b)star wars is what people expected. a sci fi future adventure. but the movie was more a noir detective bogart story. c) its sorta depressing n slow paced. i tell u this cuz i was alive back then, yea im old
I think most didnt want to see ford play anyone else but solo. Being bent on that character not some newbie role that most heard was Soooo different. People were too stuck on star wars waiting overanxious for empire strikes back.
The original and sequel are both representatives of the era they came out and from that perspective what the future may appear as. Of course 2049 wouldn't look like the original in atmosphere because the landscape not only in the story but in the 21st century has changed. The music in both is amazing work.
But 2049 is still an inferior movie compared to the original ... 2049's characters are less interesting, less charisma compared to the cast of the original, the sequel actors just have less charisma compared to actors like Rutger Hauer, Edward James Olmos, Joe Turkel and Harrison Ford who are just a totally different class of actors ... the original had more tangibility in its environment as you can see all the dystopian textures without getting blurred out by the thick fogging like what happen in the sequel .. Vangelis music is far more emotionally evocative and sophisticated, and the sequel has a lot of scenes where the lightings is too flat or too dark or too saturated ... Also, the first movie's streets and markets are filled with lowlife activities such as dwarf street urchins tearing off car parts, ostrich seller dragging ostrich through the market, punks, hare krishnans, sleazy bar owner etc, thats because only the poor or sick people are left behind on earth. In the sequel, they fill the streets in the laziest way by just having lots of people walking around, standing around doing nothing much ... maybe eating a meal at most, its does not seem particularly low life either ... those scenes feel very hollow and vacant because those street people are not well fleshed out by giving them a certain cultural background as to what idiosyncracies they might be involed in...

At one point, the studio as I recall had fired Ridley over his vision for the film--you know it's a classic film when you can watch it many times, as a piece of fine art.
Love this bts !!! Blade Runner to this day has always something new to offer!!! Its density and wall to wall detail will forever entertain and intrigue!! ❤️
Ridley Scott’s brilliant vision of future conditions created the first believable city imagery - at least to me. The movie is a masterpiece and still remains my favorite of all…
This documentary is a masterpiece on its own! I find it interesting that people always expect the future will come faster than it does. I wish the creators of Blade Runner set the story in 2119, instead of 2019 😊
We are living in an arrested present and future, we have the possibility of this....however that would involve....letting the physics cat free from its sack. look up otis tee carr.....
When it came out I was 14. It changed my life, influenced me deeply.. probably set the course of my studding in university.. many of todays top technology mangers and entrepreneurs grew up on it, and some have just fulfilled what they absorbed as youngsters from this film. so in a way Ridley Scott is the true father of many many thigs we have today.
I worked on science documentaries in the same era. Just doing a still, two-element "Optical Effect" of text and an illustrated background was a bloody nightmare! A "12 Element Opitical" of MOVING PARTS gives me the heeby-jeebies!!!
1:36 yeah, Harrison gets it. Replicants are not machines, they are almost identical to humans biologically, but some have different abilities and the 4 year life span. This was taken further in 2049 with replicants being able to give birth, making them their own species. Amazing how many people say replicants are just "human looking robots"
15:45 - "Forty or fifty years time in the future" - makes you wonder how our views of the future NOW might be way way off and even more scary than what they thought in the 80's???
a good movie when there was no computer graphics, but there was a game of actors, and much more real and real, and therefore such films can be reviewed again and again, which you can’t say about modern ones that are crammed with graphics and for one viewing
Such a great movie. Enjoyed this introspective. However it was disappointing that no commentary was provided on the phenomenal musical score by Vangelis. To a large degree, the score is critical to the overall mood and aural texture of the movie
I believe that the city and everything in it is so memorable in this movie because it is all done in camera or with practical effects. The design is great, sure, but there is something that the realness of it makes you feel the grime and wet and darkness of the place. Thank God they didn't have CGI back then.
I've been a fan of Blade Runner since first seeing it in a cinema in 1982 when I was 19YO. Today, I learned that Deckard's first name is Rick, & that his police computer is called Ester. Thank you.
Hampton Fancher rewrote the original screenplay 11 times, shopping it around until he succeeded. Much that is often credited to others, like the film noir, is found starting with the sixth edition. The first script stayed close to the short story by Dick and ended with Decker on top of the sky scraper where he lives, holding Dolly the sheep in his arms, and stepping off the edge. I would highly recommend his book on screen writing “The Wall Will Tell You.” Hampton and Peoples both deny writing the narration read over the film. Who wrote it is a mystery.

@@Californiansurfer any bad genes, although they don't help, can be overcome through hard work, i.e. running good software in one's head. Disadvantaged genetics is rather a headwind, than an obstacle.
Ridley Scott STILL prefers models to CGI and it makes a HUGE difference! The new 'Alien: Romulus' really shows the benefits of "solid" effects. Yeah, CGI is damn NEAR perfect, but you can still 'feel' the difference! Look at the new "improved" 'Star Wars' and 'E.T.' ... LOST a huge amount of there emotional impact ... esp the CGI E.T.!!!
@@BrySmi Nah don't lie ... not true, Syd Mead himself has said that he contributed less to 2049 than he did for the first Blade Runner... he gave Denis V some illustrations but from what I see of his concept art, most of them never got chosen by Denis Vill. So Syd's contributions is far less towards 2049 than to the first BR. Thats why Denis Vil's 2049 looks different and inferior to the original Blade Runner, less detailed, less textured, less rich culturally and design wise...
Is this a complete program/documentary? It seems to stop at the 27:27 mark and then we get silent footage for about nine more minutes, then it ends abruptly. Just seems odd.
Watched this when it premiered on network tv, maybe NBC? I was probably 8 or 9. Ive never seen a movie like again, even the sequel. Bladerunner is often immitated.
The movie is more about style, looks and music than anything else I think. The story isn't bad, but let's be grateful our 2019 hasn't turned out as bad as in the Blade Runner timeline.
How right scott was...the future isn't bright and clean....its going to be dark and dirty...with every passing year were getting closer and closer to the end...
I agree. Having produced lots of this type content for the studios, I can guarantee you this (use a VO in the vein of Deckard) would have been a directive from the studio client since Deckard's VO in certain cuts of the film used the same 50s hard boiled detective VO style. Except this writing (for this VO in this piece) was kind of cheesy and the VO talent was no Harrison Ford. The best version of Blade Runner is Ridley's Director's Cut that has no VO.
@@chagis100 Honestly, hard to say. I'm not a fan of changing some of the shots like they did in the final cut, like the dove shot. Sure, the original shot may not have been ideal but it's what Ridley did at the time and it's part of history. Same with replacing Joanna Cassidy's face over the stuntwoman's face in the glass crashing sequence. It reminds me too much of Lucas dicking around with all of the Star Wars stuff decades after he shot it. It's borderline OCD and very rarely does it make the move any better. Movies are kind of trapped in amber when they are made and they should exist in amber as we hold them up to the light to view them. I'm fine with digital restoration because films degrade and need it to stay true to the director's vision for the audience but this revisionist history stuff bugs me. It's Ridley and the Trust's film and they can do with it as they please but that doesn't mean we have to like it. Luckily with this film, there are lots of choices about which cut you want to see. For me, leaning toward the Director's Cut and NOT the Final Cut.
Anybody notice how low tech computers were in the blade runner universe? 'A two way videophone' , 'Scan a photograph' , ...... We just need the flying cars
Yea they're rolling them out. I think there's a French or Swedish company making them. They look like giant versions of the little drones kids play with at the park...

@@Californiansurfer others will treat you exactly how you treat yourself and how you you think who you really are. Its all based on whats in one's own head
@@anbanb8787 true, i broke so many sterotypes. Jealousy I was treated as how can you educated , Not everyone was mean. I have great friends now. It’s like replicant which he realizes he might be one himself. It s like when I tell billybob, did you get your DNA test/? He refuses , why? Because , don’t want to know that he. Has some Black blood . Priceless. Downey California
@@Californiansurfer any bad genes, although they don't help, can be overcome through hard work, i.e. running good software in one's head. Disadvantaged genetics is rather a headwind, than an obstacle.
Great movie. Great soundtrack.
THe sound stopped working at around 27.30
Yes, timeless!
Ridley Scott STILL prefers models to CGI and it makes a HUGE difference!
The new 'Alien: Romulus' really shows the benefits of "solid" effects.
Yeah, CGI is damn NEAR perfect, but you can still 'feel' the difference!
Look at the new "improved" 'Star Wars' and 'E.T.' ... LOST a huge amount of there emotional impact ... esp the CGI E.T.!!!
Was that a Tesla truck in the street scene?
Harrison ford world master class actor
Blade Runner e perfeito em tudo...som..trilha sonora...elenco...figurino....filme fantastico unico e inesquecivel❤
Melhor de todos...
What's missing from the sequel is an equivalent to Syd Mead. He was an artistic genius whose influence is literally immeasurable.
The sequel's also missing Vangelis, Rutger Hauer, a younger rougher Harrison Ford, David Peoples, Jordan Cronenweth and the list goes on...
@@BrySmi Wait, what? Thank you for educating me! (I thought he was dead.)
@@BrySmi
Nah don't lie ... not true, Syd Mead himself has said that he contributed less to 2049 than he did for the first Blade Runner... he gave Denis V some illustrations but from what I see of his concept art, most of them never got chosen by Denis Vill. So Syd's contributions is far less towards 2049 than to the first BR. Thats why Denis Vil's 2049 looks different and inferior to the original Blade Runner, less detailed, less textured, less rich culturally and design wise...
Is this a complete program/documentary? It seems to stop at the 27:27 mark and then we get silent footage for about nine more minutes, then it ends abruptly. Just seems odd.
Watched this when it premiered on network tv, maybe NBC? I was probably 8 or 9.
Ive never seen a movie like again, even the sequel. Bladerunner is often immitated.
Wait a minute they thought LA would be a cesspool in 2019 with people leaving in the streets and trash everywhere well that could never happen 😂
Masterpice. A piece of art.
Rest in peace. Syd mead your are legend
As far as I understood deckert was a replicant himself
No?
The Philip K. Dick I read wouldn't have me imagine the visuals like this.
The movie is more about style, looks and music than anything else I think. The story isn't bad, but let's be grateful our 2019 hasn't turned out as bad as in the Blade Runner timeline.
@@Emdee5632 Decker didn't have to deal with trump.
@@terrylambert8149 Trump > Biden by a long shot.
Ever wonder why they have to use the machine to identify the replicant but they got pictures of them at the police station.
How right scott was...the future isn't bright and clean....its going to be dark and dirty...with every passing year were getting closer and closer to the end...
If you watch closely the windshield is already broken when Dekards thrown against it.
the commentator sound like a bed detective stroy from the 50 in LA
I agree. Having produced lots of this type content for the studios, I can guarantee you this (use a VO in the vein of Deckard) would have been a directive from the studio client since Deckard's VO in certain cuts of the film used the same 50s hard boiled detective VO style. Except this writing (for this VO in this piece) was kind of cheesy and the VO talent was no Harrison Ford. The best version of Blade Runner is Ridley's Director's Cut that has no VO.
@@danbrockettDOP I agree.. Not that I could do any better.. But I do not do VO and that is one of the reasons..
@@danbrockettDOP Do you prefer the directors cut to the final cut? I honestly don't know how big the differences are
@@chagis100 Honestly, hard to say. I'm not a fan of changing some of the shots like they did in the final cut, like the dove shot. Sure, the original shot may not have been ideal but it's what Ridley did at the time and it's part of history. Same with replacing Joanna Cassidy's face over the stuntwoman's face in the glass crashing sequence. It reminds me too much of Lucas dicking around with all of the Star Wars stuff decades after he shot it. It's borderline OCD and very rarely does it make the move any better. Movies are kind of trapped in amber when they are made and they should exist in amber as we hold them up to the light to view them. I'm fine with digital restoration because films degrade and need it to stay true to the director's vision for the audience but this revisionist history stuff bugs me.
It's Ridley and the Trust's film and they can do with it as they please but that doesn't mean we have to like it. Luckily with this film, there are lots of choices about which cut you want to see. For me, leaning toward the Director's Cut and NOT the Final Cut.
@@danbrockettDOP Bravo re: trapped in amber! I agree. Whey Director's over Final?
Thank you for uploading this great documentary. It's possible watch it with spanish subtitles?
Anybody notice how low tech computers were in the blade runner universe? 'A two way videophone' , 'Scan a photograph' , ...... We just need the flying cars
Just got them. FAA approved!
Where's my replicant slave, Elon?
Yea they're rolling them out. I think there's a French or Swedish company making them. They look like giant versions of the little drones kids play with at the park...
I could never fiqure out why the spinners didn't have wiper blades?
WE NEED William Gibson films ASAP!!!!
It's 2022 and no flying car. They got L.A. dead right. LOL.
Brilliant documentary, but is seems that the there's no sound from the 27:30-mark and onwards?
B-Roll
@@Klaw_: Ah, biggups for clarifying! 😌❤️
Sean Young is so sultry - it's in the eyes
I love this movie I got the original VHS or was it the final cut lol
