I heard from a few friends the 3D was amazing too.

Oh well there you go, lol.

Geostorm is going to make a ton more money than 2046 lol

Apparently not. Geostorm opened with 13.3 million.

What did JAWS and Wor-Gar think of this movie?

Last IMAX screening as well before Thor replaces it.

This made me so sad...

Just got back from my 2nd viewing. Can confirm... still amazing.

Wow. Film was simply incredible. Beautiful, suspenseful, captivating, haunting, emotional, with superb performances all around etc. It's so overwhelming that it's hard for me to express all my feelings about it right now.

Of Geostorm????

I really liked 2049, and I didn't think I would. My review is way back there somewhere.

That was a phenomenal effect, on the order of young RJD in Civil War. Not sure how Disney went so off the rails with their attempt to recreate Leia.

Without having watched the abovelinked feature, I got the impression BR2049 could have used a lot of the original footage. Rachael's entrance was similar to that in the original.

I just watched the "Final Cut" of the original BR which did remind me of how good the first movie is. Hopefully I'll catch 2049 again tomorrow and it'll be interesting to see how it plays with the original so fresh in my mind.

I've never been able to accept Deckard as a replicant... until BR2049.

Yup, that de aging was pretty perfect. Surprising no one has mentions what appears to be a perfect digital makeup

Rachael in BR 2049 showcases the new bench mark in visual effects IMO. They didn't just de-age her in a generic way like RDJ in Civil War or Kurt Russell in GotG2 but rather they de-aged her in a way that perfectly matched a very specific on-screen look from a previous film. Obviously RO tried to do that with Tarkin and Leia but didn't even come close to the perfection on display in BR 2049.

It was always meant that way. You can tell because the original cut has him with the red eyes. Regardless of how many people reckon the unicorn stuff was tacked on, because Deckard ALWAYS had the red eyes, he was ALWAYS a replicant.

Perhaps, but when watching the original in isolation, the "more human than human" moral doesn't work if Deckard and Batty are both replicants.

Still looked fake. Not as fake as RO Leia but still.
Marvel films are better at doin' this crap.

Do you work for RT? Because this sounds a lot like. . .fake news!

It wasn't de-aging.

Spoiler

Sean Young wasn't cast. They used a different actress as a stand in and digitally recreated Sean Young's face as she looked in the first film. Same technique used for Leia and Tarkin.

I think it works better if the only people who showed character and emotion turned out not to be human at all.

Uh....she's listed in the credits?

Maybe because they used her face and voice?
