“He looks like a 1980’s standup comedian!” - Andrew on Deckard’s clothing

On this week’s episode, W❤️M month takes us to 2019 Los Angeles to chat about Royal Rid’s magnificent science fiction classic, Blade Runner! How stunning is the confidence of this film? Was Rutger Hauer ever better in a role? Is there a weirder coat in cinema than the one James Hong sports in this? How creepy are William Sanderson’s eerie toy “friends”? Who would’t want to administer the Voight-Kampff Test on someone? And should George Lucas take a look at this Final Cut to see how you can actually make a decent “special edition” of your movie? PLUS: M. Emmet Walsh’s character Bryant turns out to be a porno parody enthusiast!

Blade Runner stars Harrison Ford, Rutger Hauer, Sean Young, Edward James Olmos, M. Emmet Walsh, Daryl Hannah, William Sanderson, Joe Turkel, Joanna Cassidy, James Hong, and Brion James as Leon; directed by Ridley Scott.

M. Emmett Walsh would reprise his role as "killer pervert (??)" 2 years later in Blood Simple.

Perfect timing considering the news today of the release of the "Blade Runner" from prison. Wait, this isn't a true crime pod and this is actually about a movie?

I don’t mind the voice over, I saw it as a little kid and was expecting something Star Wars like because HF was starring. I needed the explanation, or I would of been totally lost. Critics canned this movie when it first came out. I couldn’t forget the movie’s haunting beauty and would rent it over and over later as a teenager when ever I’d have the use of a VCR. Later I saw a link between the replicants and gay culture during the AIDS crisis. Young people dying in their prime, being treated less then human, as if soulless. You can’t find any Neo-Noir better than this. City speak is the language Gaff is speaking, a mix of German, Spanish, and Chinese.

I had only seen theatrical and director's cut before and I just watched the Final Cut last week. I have to respectfully disagree on the narration. I was kinda lukewarm on this movie over the years. But, having been really blown away by how much the movie just asks you to sit and be with what it's showing you in the Final Cut, I feel like that narration is total trash. And the omission of the unicorn in the theatrical you saw makes the ending origami just flat-out not make sense at all. IMO the theatrical version completely subverts what the film is trying to do. The director's cut ending is better, but it's not really there yet either

Snow Village is what you’re describing at the beginning of the episode :) There’s also Dickens Village but that’s a separate collection (same idea though)
