I wonder if WB wrote Harrison Ford a large check as he stated in public he did not enjoy Blade Runner. The teaser suggests Vangelis is on board to score the soundtrack.

I’d like to be optimistic, but belated sequels to classics always suck.

ALWAYS.

I believe part of the sub-plot of the original movie was the question: “Is Harrison Ford actually a replicant?”

Since replicants don’t live very long, I guess ol’ Harrison Ford must be one of them humans.

If the time skip is big enough, this might put to rest the rumors that Deckard was a replicant himself (something that was implied was the case in the first movie), unless he was some kind of custom job that didn’t have the artificially-short lifespan; given that we don’t see Rachel in the trailer, she may have already “died”, and it’s unlikely that Tyrell would have given Deckard an extended life but not her.

Yep, every bit as dark. As a matter of fact it was a black screen with soundtrack from the original movie. How is that a trailer?

Is this a remake or a sequel?

Roy sure had a lot of emotions for being a replicant. So did Leon.

In the original movie, didn’t they say that six replicants had come to earth? One was fried and we see the other four, but where is the sixth?

Blade Runner is a deep, deep movie.

Roy kills Sebastian even though Sebastian suffers from the same problem he suffers from.

Is Earth the off-limits Eden to the replicants?

There are layers upon layers in this movie.

Why will it take so long to release the movie? In 2049 I’ll be 94 years old.

A compilation of the outtakes from Blade Runner. Pretty interesting IMO, though mostly ‘narrative’ by Ford.
‘Noir’ narrative is cool.
