It's ok. Very overrated around here.

You have seen Brazil though. Right?

i'd rather not have my memory of blade runner tainted by harrison ford's croaking delivery of pointless narrative exposition, thanks

I'll agree with FoC.  I am hyped for the ultimate cut.  It's merely a great looking, pretty good science fiction movie.  I'll take Alien over it for Great Scifi of that period.

I'd go in with lowered expectations, if you can.  The first time I saw it, I was like, uncovering every stone looking for exactly why people held it in such acclaim, and I came out of it kind of disappointed.  Later, on viewing it on its own merits alone, I enjoyed it a lot.

Brazil is a 9.5 in my book. I actually need to sit down and watch it again. I can't believe how relevant it is today. It's almost creepy

I had actually never even heard of Brazil until joining this forum.  Canadians dislike south America for what ever reason.

Blade Runner is completely overrated, but good film. It's not end be all as much as people like to say it is, especially Cheebs.

In the category of overrated movies, FMJ is way better than BR.

It's a movie about rampant bureaucracy and a never ending war with "terrorists." Yet you dont seem to make the connection with the current candidates.   :maf

I just saw Blade Runner for the first time like 2 weeks ago. Final Cut. It wasn't a masterpiece, but it definitely looked fucking great. Probably had to do with actually going to a good theater. And Harrison Ford of course is awesome. The last 20 minutes or so were incredible.

I've only seen the first 45 or so of Brazil. I didn't get to finish it. :-\

Of course he would. He wants to see his movie become a reality.

I can tell you all the shitty games I've played though! I just don't care for movies. Much.

I rarely buy DVDs anymore.  The market is so over saturated and the HD era complicating things that I won't buy anything until I have a reason to.  And for a few measly Marketplace points, she can watch the film in HD!

better that than only having seen the theatrical release

I prefer the DC, but the theatrical cut is interesting, and should be watched by a fan at least once.  The awkward incorporation of more overt noir elements via the narration does radically alter the tone of the movie, though.

But it has MORE GORE!

It has the same amount of gore as the international version, which is to say, not much more at all.  It does make Tyrell's eye gouging scene even more awesome, though.

No cut of Blade Runner is fit enough to sniff Brazil's shit.

I've never seen Blade Runner, but I have seen Brazil.

Everytime I acquire Blade Runner (director's cut) on DVD, it's scratched to hell and worthless. Hopefully I will be able to acquire the Blu-Ray set.
