It was awesome and I’m very sad it didn’t find its audience in US because I wish there could be more films like this. Not in sequel sense, although I no longer mind the idea (I hated the idea of sequel to Blade Runner but I changed my mind now), but generally ones that are asking big questions like this. And it

Yeah, I’ve met a lot of teenagers, and I never met one who went out of his way to write an editorial trying to prove Hispanics are dumb. That’s not some teenager shit. That’s some this asshole shit.

I thought the cityscape in Ghost in the Shell was a lot cooler looking. But, the inside of the Wallace headquarters was incredible. The usage of light there was so, so good.

You should see what his face will look like when he finally opens up the Ark of the Covenent, oh man...

True, but his racist teenage antics are consistent with his racist adult antics.

Ah, so he’s that guy except he somehow wormed his way into actual power. Great. Great.

What I most enjoyed was looking at the world building and set design and seeing how the whole film looks like a test run for Villeneuve’s stab at Dune. Arrakis, Caladan, Giedi Prime, and Kaitain are all foreshadowed in Blade Runner 2049's set pieces. Not to mention the slow building storytelling and long

I have one question; when is Denis Villeneuve going to be given a Star Wars film? I NEED him to have a Star Wars film!

*cough*

Back on topic. I’m delighted there’s no plans for a sequel. Perhaps they should revisit the world in 30 years time, that would be pretty cool.

Needless sequels are terrible. I was horrified when

I hate all this “Explained” youtube videos that feeds everyone everything that they don’t know. Sometimes stories don’t need to be “explained” like its a puzzle. Blade Runner 2049 doesn’t need to be explained. Its the journey of a single protagonist, the other characters and situations only serve to bring him along

I really wanted to see Blade Runner 2049 this weekend but couldn’t because of schools. It’s around midterm week, and a 3 hour film (with about half an hour of trailers these days) is a lot of time out of the weekend.

I loved it all the way through with all its little references and in jokes (from 6.10 in everywhere outside US being the premiere date for the film to the rebel replicants and nuBSG cyclons having even more in common now - their obsession with their baby girl messiah) to the whole theme that it didn’t matter if you

You’re right that this movie asks at least as many questions as it answers, but you’re wrong in saying that it’s a shame there probably won’t be sequels. It’s awesome. It means we actually get to THINK about it. The original Blade Runner gave us 30 years of things to ponder over before finally getting a sequel, which

It is more entertaining than the first dont worry. It is slow and longer but there is more stuff going on. And it has more action. It was thrilling. Just long.

Whether 2049 gets a sequel (or a franchise???) doesn’t matter. It was a worthy sequel, and I was someone who was appalled by the idea of a Blade Runner sequel.

I’m certainly not the first to say it, but I don’t know how anyone thought that a sequel to a movie that famously did badly at the box office and earned its reputation as a great, or at least important, film over the subsequent years would be a blockbuster smash. And let’s also take a step back and realize that they

Hey! Her eyes aren’t green. Deckard you stone cold MF.

Best. Sequel. Ever. Listening to the soundtrack as I work. P.S. Why am I still in the grays?

Seriously folks this movie might make its way into my top 10 Greatest of all times. Go see this film because I want more like it.

Finally someone talking some sense about making Hollywood movies.
