Hopeful that a new Blade Runner movie of some sort will gel from this: http://insidemovies.ew.com/2011/03/03/blade-runner-prequel-or-sequel/?hpt=C2 A Trailer from the original Final Cut: [video=youtube;J_hYs1jBy8Y]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J_hYs1jBy8Y"[/video] Who can forget this scene?

You're right in that it would be some awfully big shoes to try to fill. No matter what they do, it won't be good enough. But the story itself begs expansion. For good or bad, I'm of the opinion that trying to get more mileage out of a fantastic story is always better than just sitting on the rights. Let's hope whoever does it stays true to that universe -^_^
i found blade runner shit... i realize that i was set waay out of its time which made it amaizng but maaaannn .. i watched it kast year and everything about it was shit ... worst characterization ever?
Had I seen this movie before Ghost In The Shell, I would definitely enjoy Blade Runner more, not to say that its a bad movie. Its one of the best science fiction movies of all time. I think the whole "What is the to be human" theme was told more effectively in GITS. I do not want any sequel of remake to this movie though, its a classic! I love the final showdown in the rooftop.
