Are we going off world?

...

No thoughts on this?

I wish "I" could go off world now.

you know this is going to be a HUGE let down

no it won't, pussy

don't say I didn't warn you user

Anyone think that Deckard's gonna die Han-style in this?

He goes off buddy copping with Goose and gets killed by a skinjob.

This could be Mars, if the "off world" advert in the original was referring to our solar system. But then Roy Batty also mentions places and concepts that sound way beyond our close neighbors.

Another possibility is this is the same Mars that Weyland had colonized in Prometheus. I remember seeing interviews some years ago where Scott expressed a desire to link the Alien and Blade Runner universe pls don't, Ridley.

It takes place on Earth. Post apocalypse.

I don't understand the point of this movie. It looks wrong compared to the original, it isn't scored even close, it will most likely miss the point of the novel just like the first one (thank you epic twist). None of the actors seem to want to be there.

Just look at this shit
The world is supposed to be fucking China, that's how polluted the world is in the book. Not glowing orange it looks exactly like Fury Road.

Most of it probably will. But, where is Deckard hiding? Seems like going off world have been a decent hiding place.

You know why he was on Earth in the first place? Because Earth is practically a prison, no one is allowed to escape.

What about the floating billboards advertising the off world colonies?

You can see in the trailer the majority of the movie is still going to adopt the polluted Beijing/Hong Kong aesthetic of the original.

Seems targeted at the rich.

Most people in the film are living in poverty, like all the people left are the ones who couldn't afford to leave. The bourgeois complex Sebastian lives in is completely vacated.

>he's never been to China
Looks like a normal morning to me

this is everything but an absolute certainty

>"Can you let me go?"
>"I replican't"

just closed my tab right there

I know Harrison Ford feels the need to prove to everyone that he was mediocre in other classic movies besides Star Wars but there is virtually NO valid reason to revisit the bladerunner universe.

This movie will be trash.

Deckard is his favorite role so he gets a pass here.

As long as the goose is autistic with moody, appropriate music ala OGF I'll be happy.

>goose barely talks
>real hero and a real replicant being

confirmed kino

Is Ryan Gosling playing some kind of replicant prototype that wasnt fitted with emotions?

It's probably the Tannhäuser Gate or some bullshit that was shoehorned into the movie to have as many references to the original as possible

Scott is such a fucking hack, he deserves to destroy his legacy if he's going to be this greedy

Blade Runner >>>>> the novel

PKD is super overrated as an author and at best he's an "ideas guy"

Truth. He is a pretty poor writer.

I'm still in staggered disbelief it's actually going to be called "Blade Runner 2049".

How the fuck are there people who're fans of the original who just accept this without blinking? Blade Runner is all aesthetics and tone, people should be shitting on the title alone left and right. THERE'S NO WAY A SEQUEL CALLED "BLADE RUNNER 2049" IS GOING TO BE A GOOD MOVIE, IT DOESN'T EVEN HAVE A GOOD TITLE FOR FUCKS SAKE.

Unreal.

Before I found out it was a sequel, I thought it was a remake with Gosling playing Deckard
It could always be worse

>It could always be worse
this perfectly sums up the movie going experience since 2000

>Most of it probably will.

No. The whole movie takes place on Earth. There has been a global cataclysm. Replicants starting to take over as the new dominant species.

At first I didn't like it but it kinda fits doesn't it? It definitely cyberpunk.

Staggering amounts of autism in just one post.

In a world where every year shitty remakes of classic films are churned out with some ZANY fucking twist like an all female Ghostbusters, with writing that's on par with an 8th grader's youtube fanfictions, a sequel set 30 years later with the original lead reprising his role isn't too bad.

I have a quick question. Are the replicants in Blade Runner robots or are they artificially created humans? I assume they're just robots in Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep but Scott changed it to appear less corny and further the "what does it mean to be human?" narrative present in both works. And no, I don't mean clones or test tube conception

>Don't run me or my wife's blade ever again.

Artificial humans. Identical to humans but shorter life span (4 yrs) and different emotionally.

lol people who loved prometheus are hyped though
