ACGT 0101110010 ... and the rain.

Though, disturbingly, in many ways Joi was the most engagingly ‘human’ of all the characters.

No public music either 😱 not even mall musak

Vanity Fair already wrote about this months ago. Which is where I saw this picture.

For me it’s a tie with Aliens.

Movingly put, thank you.

I saw it in 3D Imax. Yowza 😍

Also, it is visually and sonically beautiful. 

I took the comment to mean the Big Questions, the philosophical and ethical questions raised by the film, not plot points; and I too enjoyed being shown rather than told for a change. Lots for my mind to chew on after seeing that film, few easy answers since they’re the same questions humans have been chewing since…

You don’t think it was a projection into the future of the outcome of the pornification of our society? Because that’s how I took it, and it seems a depressingly accurate prediction to me.

Nor me, but actually he was perfect in it and there were also 10000 wonderful things which were not Ryan Gosling.

What does it mean to be human? What is memory, and how is it connected to our concepts of identity, existence, soul? Where and when does the soul exist, if it does? What is free will, and does it even exist? If humans are composed of ACGT code and computers 1s and 0s, how different are we, really? The police seem to…

I love that Denis Villeneuve doesn’t jam philosophical and ethical answers down your gullet, but just leaves the questions sitting there, filmed beautifully, for you to think about. They were all there and then some.

I saw it IMAX 3D and want to see it again immediately.

‘shitty on the representation of women’

Glad to be of service 🙏🏼
