Some things you don't have to spoil.
You could delete that you know
I will be doing that in a few days.Just watched the original for the first time in at least a decade!

Sounds like quite the trifecta.Same here, they aired the original theatrical version.
Saturday evening was awesome for movies on TV, I ended up watching The Accountant, Blade Runner and Sin City all in a row.t:

Blade Runner 2049 topped social media buzz last week with 83,000 new conversations in the wake of the movies strong reviews, according to media-measurement firm comScore and its PreAct service.
The follow-up to Ridley Scotts 1982 sci-fi classic Blade Runner has earned an impressive 96% score on Rotten Tomatoes. Varietys Peter Debruge wrote in his review that the film delves deep into the existential concerns suggested by the earlier film, as screenwriters Hampton Fancher (who also co-wrote the original) and Michael Green raise evocative questions about human-android relations and the nuances that will one day be used to tell them apart.
Blade Runner 2049 is being distributed domestically by Warner Bros. through its output deal with Alcon Entertainment. Sony is the international distributor and production partner with Alcon Entertainment. The reboot, directed by Denis Villeneuve, stars Ryan Gosling and Harrison Ford, who reprises his role of Rick Deckard.
Early box office forecasts had projected a domestic launch of at least $40 million.
"...and some other bad habits common to today's sequel machinery - such as glaring product placement - have broken the Blade Runner spell."

Cool little clip narrated by Denis, nothing really spoilery. Just some cool imagery most of which we've already seen.
I watched the movie countless times, but, to be honest, I remember only Atari and Coca Cola. And NOODLES! This damn movie makes me want to eat ramen so much... Comparable only to the hamburger scene from Pulp Fiction.I mean the Atari stuff in Blade Runner was so blatant that it's almost become a meme at this point.
The last time that I saw Blade Runner was the theatrical release and even I know what that image means.From one of the TV spots... spoiler warning for those who want to stay totally in the dark, but again, this shot is in one of the TV spots and there isn't any real explanation necessary for those who choose to look... you'll immediately what this is.
