Blade Runner is likely to finish far below the $50 million projections. Maybe the long running time and lack of interest with younger audiences is hurting it.

[a fool in paradise]

On par with lifetime domestic gross boxoffice receipts for the original released 35 years ago

[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

Should have been adapted as a TV series.

I never understood the need for a sequel to this particular story. I enjoyed Blade Runner, but was not a slavering fanatic. Oh well.

#1 It's a sequel and sequels are notoriously inferior to the original
#2 We don't have flying cars as pictured and we're disappointed about that.
#3 Sequels show lack of originality and we're getting burnt out on remakes.

People are not interested in a dystopian view of the future, given the propaganda spouted by the media on a daily basis. That simple.

[trisham]

They’re desperate.

[KC_Lion]

It's too bad it won't live.

Then again what does?

[Daniel Ramsey]

Surprisingly it looks like with just a key actor supporting Obama, or opposing Trump a mega film suddenly loses an audience. Looks like America is growing back after being raped by the Islamobama regime.

Time for another Rocky movie.

Better yet, another Terminator flick.

By the time the writers modify the new scripts with the obligatories, the overall narrative becomes uninteresting and predictable.

Obligatories such as the lesbian kiss, the gay (male-male) kiss, the interracial couple, soon the transgendered character, etc. Then, fill the script with anti-Right, anti-conservative, anti-Christian, anti-American jabs and jokes.

And they wonder why it isn’t a box-office hit.

[Mr. K]

Maybe major film stars will learn to keep their mouths shut about their politics and not piss-off half their audience.

[EdnaMode]

Latest projections are $32-$33 million.

The original Blade Runner is very very dated

As is any film with special effects

Making way more money than My Little Pony. Good enough.

[mewzilla]

Kinda figured it sucked when they embargoed reviews.

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

I decided not to go see it when I heard it's promo, "Every civilization was built on the back of a disposable work force."

I do not need any more liberal whining in my life.

Audiences today are sharper than the west coast businessmen. If the well padded film crowd had any smarts about them, they would find a script, preferably one not seen before, and begin to work from there. Even the supermarket shelves have seen persons steer away from descriptions “new and improved”. Apparently those well healed know nothing of the true America.

[Windflier]

And yet another sequel goes splat. What a surprise.

Kids don’t want to see movies where the “hero” could be their great-grandfather.
