I can't be bothered to hunt down the other thread, so decided to create a new, updated, quicker and all round improved thread.

 

Today I took myself off to see Blade Runner 2049. Before doing so last night I watched the original 'Final Cut' to refresh my memory.

 

At present I'm not going to say too much, mainly because I don't want to drop spoilers and I am also digesting what I have seen.

 

I was dreading it as I am a big fan of the original but I did not leave with my head in my hands, so that was a plus. I felt there was plenty to tie the two together visually and also in the odd 'motif' scattered throughout the film. If you are going to watch it in 4DX, then take a raincoat, it's a very wet film. I thought the music was great and for me was very important to the feel of the film. The film is in 3D too and I always seem to sit there going "that was for the 3D effect....". I think I will definitely need to watch it again when In receive my 4K copy.  

Glad you enjoyed it EC...I think it got mixed reviews in the US .

Thanks Baz 

I never take notice of reviews before I see a film. I like to make my mind up. It's kinda history repeating itself as the original was a bit of a bomb, but went on to become a cult movie.
