Sir Ridley is also the guy who wants to make like 5 Alien prequels. So I don't know that they should listen to him too much. Especially since his track record of the last 5+ years or so has been, scotty, at best.

I fixed it for you.
 
Good chance seeing as Ford is going on his 'Greatest Hits' tour. Next stop Indie. But weather he is a Replicant or not won;t be answered.

In that case give me Fugitive part 2 with Ford returning as Richard Kimble (his best performance after Indy).
 
Ana de Amas committed one of the worst atrocities I've ever witnessed - her 'performance' in Knock Knock - but goddamn she looks very pretty here.
 
Harrison Ford is the master of pointing acting

It's so funny how The Force Awakens went of its way to make Ford look awesome and imposing with the lighting and camera angles. Here, it's him..just waking up. But I guess that works for Blade Runner. It's a miserable but beautiful world.

Ford doesn't need lighting and camera angles to look awesome. As evidenced here.
 
They should have just gone ahead and called him that in Air Force One. :o

With slightly different casting with his wife and daughter I would have readily accepted that.

To this day it still breaks my heart we didn't get Ford in another Jack Ryan film....alas

As decent as Ford was as Jack Ryan, to me, it still breaks my heart we never got Alec Baldwin as Jack Ryan in Patriot Games and Clear and Present Danger.
 
That old goat Sir Ridley is going down fighting. :funny:

Blade Runner director and HarrisonFord on if Rick Deckard is a replicant: http://share.ew.com/IqCVwvk

The original Blade Runner, set in a dystopian 2019 Los Angeles, centered around Rick Deckard (Harrison Ford), a “blade runner” tasked with hunting and “retiring” (i.e. killing) four rogue “replicants” (human-seeming androids). But in the years since Ridley Scott’s 1982 sci-fi classic was released — and, in total, there are seven different versions of the film in existence — there’s been an ongoing debate as to whether or not Rick Deckard himself might be a replicant.
As it turns out, it’s not just the fans who fight about it, it’s the filmmakers, too. Ridley Scott has long insisted that Deckard is a replicant. Ford and Blade Runner co-screenwriter Hampton Fancher have just as firmly been in the “No” camp. Earlier this year, while in the middle of production of Blade Runner 2049, director Denis Villeneuve went out to dinner in Budapest with Scott (who conceived of 2049′s story with Fancher and serves as executive producer) and Ford, and found himself with a ringside seat for the same argument they’ve been having for the last 34 years.

“It was very funny, I must say, to find myself in the literal crossfire of Harrison and Ridley, arguing as to why Deckard should be a replicant and why he should be human,” says Villeneuve. “As a fan, that’s a dinner I will remember for all my life.”

As for whether or not 2049 will settle this debate once and for all, the cast and filmmakers aren’t saying. “I’m happy to censor myself on this one,” Ford says. “I can tell you that it was a question that was of interest to me when we made the first film, and I’m not sure I ever got a straight answer from the people I was working with at that point. I think the answer to your question is worth the price of admission.”
 
I don't care if Ridley is so adamant about Deckard being a replicant, as long as it's never explicitly answered. I like both sides to be defensible. I like that, when I watch the movie, I can talk myself into believing either notion depending on my mood.
 
That's because there's evidence, and it also depends on which version of the film you use, pointing to either option. But there's also other stuff, that seems to point against it as well.
 
I'll pretty much see anything from Villeneuve now. Plus Harrison Ford and Ryan Gosling? :hmr:

Not to mention Ana de Armas :atp:
 
Gosling's perfect for this role. He has that perfect "tough pretty boy" stoic look about him.
 
Since I saw him in Drive and bought scorpion jacket he can't do wrong
 
Gosling's a lot like Johansson to me-- I can never decide if I actually like them as actors, or if they're just pretty people coasting by on looks, a vague "magnetic" quality, and good choices/better collaborators. Chops and changes every time I see them.

I find it hard to deny his talent after The Nice Guys". He is so good in that movie. Also, apparently immortal.
