"I've... seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I've seen c-beams glittering in the dark near the Tannhauser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time... like tears... in rain." - Roy Batty

COMMENTS?

Since tomorrow's my birthday I figured I'd repost the tbs for my two favorite movies ever.

I'm still trying to scourge up the cash to get the Final Cut set.

Since I got my BD player, I knew this was one of the first non-Disney movies I needed to get, and I'll make sure that it's here before long.
Life is not about the second chances. It's about a little mouse and his voyage to an exciting new land. That, my friend, is what life is.

Sir, do you have any Warrants?
I got their first CD, but you can't have it, motherfucker!

It was one of my first blu's that I ordered off of Amazon. When the first shot (still the most beautiful opening in any film I've ever seen IMHO) came up, I was officially blown away by the increased depth of field on display.

Outstanding film. I may not have seen every movie Ridley Scott's made, but I doubt any of them will ever surpass Blade Runner in my opinion.
Rutger Hauer's performance in this movie is among my absolute favorites.
In every age
In every place
The deeds of men
Remain the same.

Aside from Deckard being a rapist, Blade Runner is a good movie.

But I don't see the need for a sequel, tbh.
