Cheers for the link.  I might have to buy the EW mag.

Had no idea this was even happening - lets hope it isn't just a cash grab. Imagery look great.

I gotta say I'm so over Ford - he was one of my most favored actors and I guess heroes, as a kid, but lately - bleh!

This sure could be a version of kipple:


Here's the quote from JR on his form of entropy:

JR - Kipple is useless objects, like junk mail or match folders after you use the last match or gum wrappers of yesterday's homeopape. When nobody's around, kipple reproduces itself. For instance, if you go to bed leaving any kipple around your apartment, when you wake up the next morning there's twice as much of it. It always gets more and more.
Pris- I see.
JR - There's the First Law of Kipple, "Kipple drives out nonkipple." Like Gresham's law about bad money. And in these apartments there's been nobody there to fight the kipple.
Pris - So it has taken over completely. Now I understand.
JR - Your place, here, this apartment you've picked - it's too kipple-ized to live in. We can roll the kipple-factor back; we can do like I said, raid the other apartments. But -
Pris - But what?
JR - We can't win.
Pris - Why not?
JR - No one can win against kipple, except temporarily and maybe in one spot, like in my apartment I've sort of created a stasis between the pressure of kipple and nonkipple, for the time being. But eventually I'll die or go away, and then the kipple will again take over. It's a universal principle operating throughout the universe; the entire universe is moving toward a final state of total, absolute kippleization.

But it could also be the neverending dust.

The new trailer dropped today:



I'll wait for the actual movie before making more comments

The new trailer dropped today:

I´ll love it for sure...

[nic-e]

it looks very pretty, But i wouldn't say it looks very blade runner.
It has the style down but it just doesn't look like it'll have that same detective noir feeling.Maybe it isn't tryint oo, But it'll have to work very hard to keep me in the blade runner universe whilst also having a different feel.

(Maybe it just shows how influential both blade runner and ghost in the shell were in the development of contemporary sci fi aesthetic, But i feel like you could chop both these movies together and have a hard time finding the seams. )

It does look very stylish indeed. It would be a shame if it just turned out to be just another action flick but I'm hopeful it will be good and that Ridley Scott will ensure that it feels right. I watched Prometheus again recently and enjoyed it more than I remembered. It felt like it fitted better than some of the later installments. It could be a similar type of thing with this.

I really like the trailer, it isn't trying to be to much of a copy of the original, and taking the story elsewhere, I have high hopes for this film as the director made Arrival which I enjoyed and he has Dune lined up to start soon

Same.

The trialer doesn't give away story - it's purely selling the aethetics. And I like them. The choice of some of the actors (based on their facial features) is very interesting.

So - I'm still looking forward to this.

Goose bumps all over...
Can't wait for this one!!!

[Ignatieff]

Really not sure about this. Sometimes it's not a good idea to revisit something that's got a high level of nostalgia involved as it can undermine your appreciation of the original. The style looks appropriate, which you'd generally expect with Ridley Scott involved but the story is going to have to be worth it.

Well said.  I have an overwhelming sense of dread about this one.

That.

From what i have seen, they seem to have the atmosphere right... but this film will have to be very special in order to not taint the first one.

[ShortscaleDave]

Hate the idea. Like the director. Not convinced by the exec producer. Like Gosling. Hate Leto.  I hope it is beyond awesome, but I am incredibly precious about my favourite film of all time, and do not wish to Prequels/Prometheus it up in my mind.  I may ignore this film if the reviews are anything less than exceptional.  

[ShortscaleDave]

But it might at least be a new source of bladerunner vehicles for gaming purposes!
