Harrison Ford confirmed for 'Blade Runner' sequel
Hmmmm........not sure about this??
(CNN)Harrison Ford will reprise his role as Rick Deckard in the "Blade Runner" sequel. "Prisoners" director Denis Villeneuve is in talks to helm the Alcon Entertainment film. The film is scheduled to start principle photography in the summer of 2016. Hampton Fancher, who co-wrote the original, and Michael Green have written the screenplay, which is based on an idea from Fancher and Ridley Scott. The story takes place several decades after the conclusion of the 1982 original, which centered on a man (Ford) working as a blade runner who was tasked with chasing down machines called replicants. Alcon Entertainment acquired the rights to "Blade Runner" in 2011 with the intention of making both prequels and sequels to the iconic science-fiction thriller. Bud Yorkin will serve as a producer on the sequel along with Alcon co-founders Andrew A. Kosove and Broderick Johnson. Frank Giustra and Tim Gamble, CEOs of Thunderbird Films, will serve as executive producers. Villeneuve most recently directed the crime thriller Sicario, staring Emily Blunt, Josh Brolin and Benicio Del Toro. He also directed Canada's Oscar-nominated French-language film "Incendies" and "Prisoners," staring Hugh Jackman and Jake Gyllenhaal. Ford next will be seen in Lionsgate's "The Age of Adaline" and will reprise his role as Han Solo in "Disney's Star Wars: The Force Awakens." He's repped by UTA. http://www.cnn.com/2015/02/27/entert...-ford-thr-fea/ |

I know I've seen about 60% of it but just never sat thru from beginning to end. I've ways meant too, it was on my must see before I croak list anyway. I recall seeing it when I was a kid but falling asleep half way thru. We were doing a movie night with my folks. We watched The Omega Man and Solyent Green with Heston first, then Logan's Run and we were finishing up with Blade Runner. For some reason I seem to remember android titties... Then crashed and had wonderful sex bot dreams afterwards.
Shit. Oh well. |

Whats interesting is, it was a huge flop upon release. Most people thought it was a tremendous bore, including myself. But as the years grew, people began to really dig it alot more. Im still not sure it has a huge enough following to make the sequel a hit, but who knows?

If you like Blade Runner you owe it to yourself to read Neuromancer.

Truth is, I've watched Blade Runner more times than I remember... just got my star wars and this thread mixed up.
I mean, who can forget the scene where Han throws Rutger Hauer into the Sarlacc pit? |

Molly Millions, who is a main character in Neuromancer, is introduced in "Johnny Mnemonic", a short story by William Gibson, the author of both.
"Johnny Mnemonic: was, forgettably, turned into a mid-90's sci-fi film with Keanu and Dolph Lundgren. |

I think I did too. Was there a giant shark or a whale or something in that movie? The memories have been repressed. |
