FWIW, the last four movies I’ve seen in the theater were the first two parts of Atlas Shrugged, Ghost in the Shell and Blade Runner 2049.
BR-2049, along with it’s predecessor are movies that will be bought and viewed 100 years from now. I’d jump for a chance to own both in 4K-HDR and I’m sure they’ll eventually be converted to Holotank format right around 2052 when the next sequel Blade Runner 2079 is released.
I highly recommend you catch up by watching the original before you watch the squeal and if you don’t want to sit through that long a movie watch it in chunks. Once you’ve seen it you will probably watch it again as it is positively
overflowing with layers of symbolism that no one viewing will completely reveal. Cells interlinked within cells interlinked.
“And Peter opened the gate and went out into the green meadow,,,”(cue Prokofiev violins...). Villeneuve is a genius, on the order of Hitchcock and others of that era. Too bad it won’t make a lot of immediate money but perhaps over time it will be a cult favorite. I was spell bound!
