Break ups suck so hard. Hang in there dudes, being single is pretty sick. I don't meet a lot of girls I would give up that freedom for

Blade Runner is awesome. Saw it at the cinema when it first came out all them years ago. You must watch itleaves turn wrote:I've never seen Blade Runner but I own the deluxe edition of the OST and listen to it all the time.

No movie based on a story by Philip K. Dick has too much in common with the original idea. If I had known the original "Minority Report" years ago, I hadn't liked the movie too much. "Blade Runner" (based on the rather short novel "Do androids dream of electric sheep?") is an exception in the way that the dystopic feeling and PKD's favourite philosophic question "What makes us human?" is present throughout the whole movie. The movie in the "Final Cut" version is the one that Ridley Scott prefers, although there has also been a "Director's Cut" version earlier. I also prefer the "Final Cut" version and I'd recommend to watch this one to those who haven't seen the movie.phantasmagorovich wrote:I also remember loving the book but I only read it once and I can hardly remember it. It's massively different from the movie, isn't it?
I actually liked Minority Report even without knowing the book. Also A Scanner Darkly is supposed to be pretty close?Pepe wrote:No movie based on a story by Philip K.

And the movie features the best music that Vangelis ever produced. Lots of adorable Yamaha CS-80 tunes! I must admit that I don't like anything else by Vangelis or Yamaha.
I haven't read or seen "A Scanner Darkly" yet. And UBIK is for sure very cool, but I doubt that we'll see a movie too soon. Several attempts have been made in the past, though.phantasmagorovich wrote:Also A Scanner Darkly is supposed to be pretty close?
And is there a movie version of UBIK?
