The long overdue _Blade Runner_ thread

Mr. Deckard Goes to Washington

For a Few Runners More

The Good, The Bad, and The Replicant

i keep trying to find one that i can cram "skinjobs" into, but you know, that's about the only fake slur i can think of that seems legitimately offensive. everything i try comes off more gross than funny.

Replicant on a Hot Tin Roof

okay, now that i've thought about it bunch, it sounds funny after all

The Once and Future Skinjob
Skinjob Cowboy
Weekend at Skinjobs

etc.

My tie-in product idea already exists :-(

WINNER

when the sequel gets made that has to be thread title pleeeeeze

Since it has a female protagonist, obviously the title will be:

Blade Runneress

Or:

BLadee Runner

was trying to think of a decent sequel to a classic, that came a decade or so after. there's not many is there?

texasville?

mm haven't seen that, i think it went straight-to-video over here iirc.

romero's day of the dead i guess. but that's more of a series than a one-off sequel of course.

Freddy Vs. Jason came out 13 years after the previous Nightmare on Elm Street movie (though only 2 years after the previous Friday the 13th one), and it's better than almost any other NoES or Ft13th movie.

Some people seem to think Before Sunset is even better than Before Sunrise, I'd say they're equally good. It's also one of the few movies where the long cap between the original and the sequel is succesfully incorporated in the plot. (It would've been a totally different movie if it was made only 3 or 4 years after the original.)

Oh, and I also remember liking The Color of Money, though admittedly I haven't seen The Hustler (which came out 25 years before the sequel).

Anyway, if this new Blade Runner will be a proper sequel and not a remake, I wonder if it'll be the longest pause ever between a movie and its sequel? By the time it hits the screens, there'll be something like 35 years between the two movies.

Haha, apparently not! Internet tells me the longest sequel gap is 64 years, between Bambi (1942) and Bambi II (2006). Though admittedly with animated movies it's much easier to make sequels decades after the original.

Oh, and speaking of: Toy Story 3 came out 11 years after Toy Story 2, and it's the best movie of the three.

And with live-action movies the longest gap appears to be between The Naked Civil Servant and An Englishman in New York, which is 34 years. (John Hurt plays the lead in both.)

was gonna say Psycho 2 but turns out that was only 23 years after the first one! #mindmash.

there's also that manoel de oliveira belle de jour psuedo-sequel, belle toujours, which came about around 2009, 32 year after buñuel's film.

55 years between Gone With The Wind and the Scarlett TV mini-series.

(thought "decent sequel" is questionable)

lol @ Bladeerunner I am using that one Tuomas thx

You guys all remember this series right?

I think Jeter wrote two more after that one.

he was authorized by he dick estate to write those as well. I assume they are awful. I know he has a cult following but the one book of his I read (wolf flow) sucked balls.

Jeter's Dr. Adder was pretty good, I seem to remember.

Jeter alternates between hackery and genius. I don't know anybody that's read Dr. Adder or Glass Hammer and not been impressed.

He Said You Blade Runner, She Said You Blade Runner, a mixed-up romantic comedy from Ridley Scott.

or perhaps the video-game-inspired Blade Gunner?

this is basically what prometheus is, good call

i like that those lines are evocative of stuff we haven't actually seen, that's kind of the point.

oh well.

that's what I'm saying

the faltermeyer gate is blade runner's "space jockey"
