Its not a 'masterpiece' until SNIKT gushes over it in a lengthy and flowery soliloquy.

Astounding film. Saw the 7pm IMAX 2D screening tonight. Cannot wait to see it again. I'm still trying to process it all but I will say this--I never been a big fan of Gosling but his performance was absolutely stellar. And so was Ford's but Gosling as K was extraordinary. Lots of emotion in that performance and you truly feel for him and his predicament(s). You'll see what I'm talking about once you see it. Villeneuve--a pure genius behind the camera that we don't deserve. Please give Deakins his Oscar for this.

What? After 9 years of comic book movies we more than deserve a genius about now.

Direction was spot on, hope he does more sci fi

Film of the year. Simply incredible. I've never had such an immersive experience in the cinema. Just amazing. Need to see again.

10/10.

Villeneuve continues to show he's a master auteur. Its as if he married Scott's original with Angel Heart and crafted a far superior Blade Runner tale.

Can't ****ing wait for Dune.

I forgot about Dune! From my favourite film (blade runner) to my favourite book, this is like a dream come true!

Spoiler!

Well so much for the twist ending.

LOVE the new sig.


If you ever go back to your photo-chopping work again, may I suggest Porg eyes for Amy Schumer?

Re: Denis Villeneuve to direct new Blade Runner film

Yeah when I get home i’m going to redo the sig that’s just a temporary place holder but YES absolutely great choice for her eyes makes perfect sense to me lol

Its not about the twist ending lol its about the pacing, flavor and overall masterful approach to the gumshoe style of storytelling. Its film noir at its finest. Gosling is superb, Deakins is a beast and Villeneuve is rivaling Fincher's Zodiac here.

Its a film noir masterpiece. Rourke is GOLD in it and Parker tops Midnight Express. Had Rourke not told Sam Goldwyn to go **** himself right before release, the film would have swept the Oscars that year and Rourke would have beat Douglas for Best Actor (and not began a career of being black-balled).

Re: Denis Villeneuve to direct new Blade Runner film

Is that what happened to Mickey lol

It started with Rain Man. Levinson wrote the part for Rourke who he'd been wanting to reunite with since Diner. The studio rejected the casting outta respect for Goldwyn. It continued to happen with other films and studios. Nobody meaningful wanted to hire him so he started (hilariously) boxing again and would take parts in low budget crap to pay the bills.

Tarantino tried to get him into Pulp Fiction and wrote the Butch Coolidge role for him, but the blackball was still in place.
