Blade Runner

Ambiguous, mysterious, frustrating, and with an impossible to decipher ending. Just the way I like my sci-fi.

What is the significance of the origami? What does the unicorn mean? It's all great stuff I don't even want to know the answers to.

Considering the movie is 40 years old, the visual effects look absolutely great.

I thought Leon's test at the beginning was hilarious because he kept interrupting and throwing the guy off his rhythm with stupid questions. SO funny, which is not what I expected before I saw the film.

Apparently James Hong was playing old, wizened Asian guys 40 years ago. Sounds about right.

If you ever wanted to see Roger Rabbit's Joanna Cassidy topless, this is the film for you.

I see why Andrea Romano cast William Sanderson as Karl Rossum on Batman: The Animated Series now. Could never figure out how Newhart's Larry got that role and it turns out it was a tribute to this.

Rutger Hauer was pretty amazing as Batty. Super creepy and yet his death still moved me. Good stuff.

I like the end credits music too.

That was pretty great. ****1/2.
