Why did it take me this long to watch Blade Runner?

[Bloodwake]

I'm wide awake and it's three in the morning, and I feel like buying shit. Which version of the film is the best?

[Positive Touch]

last one - think it's called final cut

mkay. Well, I'm off.

[Great Rumbler]

Watching the theatrical cut first will make you appreciate the Final Cut that much more.

[Bloodwake]

The final cut is in the Blu-ray player, and just ran the image cleaner to get rid of the image retention from the Force Unleashed demo of great.

See you guys in two hours.

[Bloodwake]

Okay, this opening crawl is already amazing.

[Great Rumbler]

The whole opening scene is just incredibly awesome.

I just finished watching the final cut.

Something I noticed

spoiler (click to show/hide)

All of the dudes who created the Replicants had a crucial flaw, just like they did: The Asian guy was all old and decrepit, Sebastian has that degenerative disease, Tyrell's eyes are all fucked up and he has to wear these giant ass glasses. I'm trying to figure out if that means anything.

Watch Final Cut for the amazing transfer, then the DC for another great version, and skip the other three versions. Thats how I do it, anyways. I dont have the time nor the desire to watch 3 other inferior versions.

[MyNameIsMethodis]

Just read the book it's based on and get the REAL story.

Also, instead of watching said inferior cuts, spend your time on Dangerous Days.

[MyNameIsMethodis]

How is Dangerous Days? I haven't even got to that yet (then again, I own the HD DVD version of BR so :/)

The Final Cut and the DC are too similar.  I'd say Final Cut and the theatrical cut so he can understand why the theatrical cut is inferior and take place in the Argument.

Its exhaustive, and at times, exhausting, lolz. Overall though, its great, and worth the price of the set alone.

This is a good point, which I was actually pondering after my post. Yeah, go this route.

They're compensating for their own imperfections. It adds a touch of irony to the attempts to wipe out the replicants, given that they are in many ways superior beings.

Of course, it's also a bit of a sticking point for the nit-pickers: if it's so easy to create perfect artificial eyes, why doesn't Tyrell have them surgically implanted himself?

Yes, this is the best. I laughed out loud at several moments when the narration kicked in when I watched the theatrical cut.

SUSHI.  THAT'S WHAT MY EX-WIFE CALLED ME.  COLD FISH.

Yea, do this.

And yes, the documentary is fuckmazing.

I still haven't actually gotten around to watching the Final Cut lol

[Great Rumbler]

I like how even though it's been 26 year since the movie came out Jerry Perenchio and Bud Yorkin still subtly defend the changes they made to the movie.

Me too. And it was the first time I ever watched the film.

I don't know why he saved my life. Maybe in those last moments he loved life more than he ever had before. Not just his life - anybody's life, my life. All he'd wanted were the same answers the rest of us want. Where did I come from? Where am I going? How long have I got? All I could do was sit there and watch him die.

The best part is that he recites the voiceover like a child that has just learned to read.

[Bloodwake]

God damn. Fucking great.

[MrAngryFace]

Yeah I love it, and the Bluray transfer is omg omg omg x10

[trippingmartian]

Now play the game by Westwood.

BTW Did anyone make it out to the limited theatrical re-release?

[Positive Touch]

yup.  first time i had ever seen it, and i really enjoyed it despite having a terrible sinus infection.

[Bloodwake]

Damn right it is.

Although I wish that it would have come with a chart with the differences in the versions similar to the one that came with the Close Encounters Every Fucking Version Blu-ray

[Joe Molotov]

I had to drive about 80 miles, but I saw Blade Runner: Final Cut in theaters. So worth it.

[MyNameIsMethodis]

Maybe you all should read the book, since it's like, a million times better.

[Great Rumbler]

Nope, he's already watched the movie so now he'll never get another chance to read the book.

[Ecrofirt]

You know, I still haven't seen this film.

[Rman]
