Blade Runner 2?

So several weeks ago I heard a rumor about "Blade Runner 2," I first took it as just a crappy internet thing such as that on the level of Ghostbusters 3.

 
So this evening I'm on Facebook and my good buddy on the Replica Prop Forum posted about it so I had to do some research on it.  Turns out...... the rumour unfortunately is true, why I say this is unfortunate is because sometimes things just need to be left alone.

Why else will I most likely dislike this film...... is that I have an affinity for the ORIGINAL CUT.  If you read my previous blog about Blade Runner, you'll learn about the differences between all 4 cuts (yes, fuckin' four of 'em), seems like Ridley Scott just couldn't come up with a real version for the film, so he decided to make one for everyone under the sun.  Now since the "Final Cut" is well, most likely "final," we will probably have to watch a sequel which is based off of the ending in the Final Cut, which according to me is a non-canonical ending to the film.  It will break my heart to have to see a sequel to a film that I love so much, only to have the director go off on his own tangent again, and I can only wonder if I should just wait for the 8th cut of the DVD to come out before I even see it.

Regardless, the movie is set to come out for 2014, maybe my opinion will have changed by then?  Not sure.  Only question I have.......

IS DECKARD A REPLICANT?!

So do you guys think that Blade Runner 2 is a necessary movie to be made?

  4. Its years too late to try and touch up this movie. Unless they try to do something where it takes place far into the future and has nothing to do with the original events so it can still keep that part with its dignity in tact
