I am not interested in seeing Dennis V's interpretation of Blade Runner.

I just am not. Blade Runner was a complete movie. It's theme was about humanity and the love for life and the first movie covered that pretty well. People think it's about a cop chasing androids. That's the back drop. The true theme is what I stat d above. And Phillip K. Dick didn't write any sequel, so why should there be one.

And Blade Runner had one of the best closing segments in the history of movies. The Orion speech was classic and the perfect ending to the story, which does not need to be revisited.

Dennis Villeneuve is a "diet" sci-fi director. The studio handing him this movie is the same as when WB hand Superman over to Zach Snyder thinking that he was a comic book director.

And this whole desert thing going on in the trailer, Harrison Ford getting second billing, it all just won't work. Ryan Gosling is not the new Harrison Ford.

I am just gonna state what people are gonna state after seeing the movie: It just didn't work!

Also, Prometheus anyone???

What I find shocking is not so much the fact that you've shot this film down without even seeing it; it's the fact that people are actually chiming-in to agree with your negativity. Dude, if it's not for you, then let it be!!!

Then don't go see it. See, problem solved.

Did you just compare Denis to Zach Snyder?

I'm gonna let you just suffer your existence out in peace while I enjoy this movie and the rest of life.

P.S. it was a great film, too bad you won't get to see it.
