New Blade Runner in the works...

Three-time Oscar-nominated director Ridley Scott is set to helm a follow up to his own ground-breaking 1982 science fiction classic “Blade Runner” ...

The original film, which has been singled out as the greatest science-fiction film of all time by a majority of genre publications, was selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry by the Library of Congress as being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant." The film was selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry in 1993 and is frequently taught in university courses. In 2007, it was named the 2nd most visually influential film of all time by the Visual Effects Society.

I'm one of the few who thinks the original wasn't really that good.

[Happy Panther]

Lots of people don't. I think Harrison Ford didn't even like it at the time.

The story is cool but the world that Ridley Scott created with 1982 (non CG) special effects was what I liked the most. The whole look and feel of the movie.

I liked it, but not enough be get mad that they are going to remake it. It is a classic piece of cinema and shouldn't be remade but whatevs.
