I so love BLADE RUNNER that I bought the uber-mega box, the one that includes the rough cut with the temp tracks instead of the Vangelis music, and yet for some reason I still haven’t seen the director’s cut. I guess I am taking my time and enjoying the set, with the commentaries and such.

The documentary is one of the best of its kind.

I had no idea how anyone could make such a crappy movie out of such an amazing book.

Yeah? Try watching the so called "Isaak Asimov's Nightfall"

by FAR the worst adaptation of the printed word to the silver screen ever made.

Never heard that it was made into a moving picture.

Let me guess: Golan Globus?

Roger Corman.

And he should rot in Hell for this alone.

It’s the last great “analog” sci-fi movie, no computer junk.

Rutger Hauer could have played Roy too over the top, but hit it just right.

It’s one of the very few movies that gets better every time you watch it.

20: Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope

I believe this is what they call the original Star Wars ever since Lucas made those prequels.

Roger Corman is to film as Ebola is to life.
