Hahahaha Maybe so, I have seen no other cuts to compare but it does seem that’s the case. If you say Final cut is 2007 then i saw the first release because the year was 1982 same as the release date according to google.

Alright I’ll check it out. hopefully somewhere online they got all the different versions.

Wow that many?? Y’all were not kidding when ya said it had a complicated production…

You must not talk about the Alien movies enough then.

Your finding problems where they don’t exist. There is a discussion being had, but you interpreted the tittle negatively. Cope.

The copy I saw’s tittle is “Blade Runner (1982) “ I’m guessing it’s the first ever release version since it does not specify anything else.

It’s called having a discussion, listening to other people’s opinions and interpretations of the film i just saw. I don’t understand why in a forum dedicated to movie discussions you don’t see the point in discussing about movies.

That sounds like an exiting moral dilemma that makes for a great movie experience.

I did not see the Replicants as humans, nor did I ever feel the morality struggle Deckard was going through. I sorta felt it when the Replicant woman who did well on the test asked Deckard if he ever killed a human mistaking it for a Replicant and it was also interesting when the CEO guy talked about developing emotions for them but I did not find empathy for their goals to have a longer life, not because of morality but because I did not find a connection to the Replicants. In a movie like Ex Machina though I really cared for the captive humanoid machine, the way they developed her character i think made these questions allot heavier and captivating and most of the movie was set in one big mansion. I don’t think the problem was the story itself, rather the execution of it. If they used the lower tempo scenes to give the viewer time to connect with at least one of them then this movie would have me captivated with these questions.

I agree it seems oftentimes movies get branded as boring cause they are not hyper flashy and full of high tempo action but I was not expecting a Rambo-style shooting fest and it still felt like the action was not rewarding and the low tempo scenes either. I mention Aliens cause it was a movie that was very captivating to watch even in the scenes where Ripley was on trial or in her apartment talking to the company employee and Military guy.

This might be what it was missing for me, some people here say the Director’s cut is where it’s at so i will be sure to check that out. I really wanna like this story cause the movie looks so cool.

Hahaha yeah It just confuses people since it’s not called “Aliens 2” so I often say “And the sequel Aliens”

I’m not sure tbh… Probably not the director’s cut version cause it was not specified.

Many people seem to agree with this opinion, I will surely take that recommendation and watch it tonight.

I feel that, my brother was saying it may be because it’s an older movie but that’s definitely not it. I was going down a rabbit whole of watching older iconic movies. I saw Alien and Aliens (The sequel to Alien) and i was glued from start to finish. The production was amazing too but the story was also super awesome! The first movie was mostly suspense with little action and i loved it, the second was a mix of action and suspense and i loved it even more! Some people in this post commented about it being such a unique aesthetic for the time but Starwars and the Alien movies had this 80’s vision of the future too and had allot more to offer in terms of story and production alike. Not to mention Robocop, The Terminator, Judge Dread etc…

The production was definitely cool but does that mean not many people connect with the display of this story either?
