Strap in, folks, because this week's topic is the classic 80's science fiction film Blade Runner (1982), directed by Ridley Scott. Blade Runner stars Harrison Ford in the mysterious lead role of Rick Deckard, as well as other notable names like Rutger Hauer, and Edward James Olmos (who went on later to be in Battlestar Galactica). Blade Runner isn't a film that was traditional Oscar bait, though it did receive nominations for Set Decoration and Visual effects. Nevertheless, it is the primary inspiration for an entire genre as film moved from the classic era into the modern one. Films such as Looper and District 9 as well as directors like Christopher Nolan cite Scott's work as a source of inspiration for them. Sit with us as we discuss our first impressions of this film.
