Man, 1982, off to see a real sci-fi movie starring Han Solo/Indy and made by Ridley Scott, scored by Vangelis, what a time to be a nerd. Such a beautiful movie, ambiguous by design, Sean Young and Edward James Olmos looking like they really were from the future (2019!), the reality and desperation of the Replicants...amazing design - I'm really looking forward to this movie but concerned it's going to be less cool and more marketing fluff.

 

My pal Jason built an amazing replica of the blimp from the original

I hope they keep the whole "is he or isn't he a replica" thing going with you know who (trying to be spoiler free from the first one)

ridley scott said he was a replicant in an interview a few years ago. they can probably play that off if they need to, though.

Oh damn I didn't know that. I wish he would have been ambiguous about it. That was the fun part. So if he is a replicant, I wonder if our main character in this one will want to dispose of him...hmm guess il have to wait and see thanks for the info.

yeah, i think he said it because it had been a while after the movie was out, and he didn't see a sequel. i prefer thinking of him as being human, so i choose to willfully suspend disbelief. :-)

im excited for the sequel, and hope they are true to the original. it's so good, i'd hate to see any blemish on it.

Since the first one takes place 30 years before this one and the Replicants in that one only had a 4 year life span, either Deckard is a rare/unique model that not only lives substantially longer but ages as well or he is human.

 

The cynic in me says they will walk back the "he is a replicant" talk and go with something more along the lines of Roy's dying words and his love for Rachel ruined him as a Blade Runner but now they need him back.  I hope I'm way off base, but I cant say I have much confidence in anyone's ability to make a worthy sequel.
