Re: Blade Runner Sequel
The very notion of a sequel seems contrary to noir.

Re: Blade Runner Sequel
Who knows? I would simply have Deckard coming back down-town with Rachael's head on a plate. Yes, he killed her (like Hampton wanted to in the first draft) and now, re-instated ('cause we have other problems with the next Nex-Gen from Tyrell Corp) he'll team up with another group of Blade Runners to take care of that stuff.That doesn't mean that the philosophy of the story has to go the way some people wants it to go: i.e. shoot 'em up in slow motion (cannot stand that stuff anymore!)If Ford re-signed and declared that it's the best screenplay he has read...and knowing how he felt, in the past, about the movie...sign me up!

Re: Blade Runner Sequel
Yeah, are they not paid to say that about every move they sign onto..
Re: Blade Runner Sequel
Ford can talk about flying and I will listen. Beyond that I don't value his opinion. He has made so many stinkers and unremarkable films since his glory days that his words mean nothing.
Aircraft and flying are expensive and he has made no secret he likes the big checks as we all would.

Re: Blade Runner Sequel
Well folks, after watching/hearing, for years, Ford talk about how he would've preferred opening his veins with a dull spoon rather than shooting anything with Blade Runner in the title, I'll say that he knows that the sequel will be the end for both him and Rachael (he only signed on the dotted line for TFA if Solo was killed; got his wish there).

Re: Blade Runner Sequel
If they're trying to capture the incomparable atmosphere of the original film one thing they need to do right is the sound.
Ambient sounds and diagetic music blended seamlessly and were often indistinguishable from the score. Think of the police sirens that wail hauntingly through Blade Runner Blues, or the eerie background music when you first enter The Snake Pit, or the constructed cacophony of ambient street sounds when Dekard is hunting down Zora. The scenes where Deckard is exploring JF Sebastian's place (the Bradley) is peppered with delicate leitmotif.
I once recorded the entire film on audio cassette and used to just listen to the film as a tapestry of sound over and over again.
It doesn't matter how good they make the visuals if they don't do the sound right. If they can't craft the sound and score with as much care there's really no point.

Now if they can get Cary Elwes and Mandy Patinkin to play Blade Runners, I might be game...
