We all called it and all love it.

Ah, but will Villeneuve and Deakins shoot Blade Runner 2 digitally or on film? It'd be great if they did the latter, there's a nice filmic level of grain and black levels that really help accentuate the cinematography and production design of the first film.

I would rather have go film to give it more..texture. Like his digital work has been fantastic, but it is very much clean looking, much like Fincher's switch over to digital.

 

[Fallen Angel]

He likes to recycle actors and there's not been a female lead mentioned. He's just finished working with Emily Blunt on Sicario. Maybe she's a possibility?

 

[Octoberist]

maybe. MAYBE.

Well, it is at least going to look good.

Yep.

 

[Hurm...]

Agreed. Both have great styles, but I prefer seeing some grain in their compositions.

Stannis general approval of Jon Snow was beyond awesome. It was like he was waiting for Jon to do something so he could show his approval.

As someone whp grew up in Montreal, it's awesome to see Denis Villeneuve and Jean-Marc Vallee climbing to the top of Hollywood.

I hope they get Syd Mead back to do concept art for Blade Runner 2.

 

[Monsieur Xavier]

No faith in the project.
It can only be disappointing like all sequel/prequel of iconic movies.
I ran out of nostalgia a long time ago.

 

[Fallen Angel]

If Ridley Scott of the last decade was directing this I'd be worried but not with Denis Villeneuve.

 

[chamber-music]

Lots of talent involved in this with Denis Villeneuve, Ryan Gosling and Roger Deakins.

I think it has a chance of living up to the hype.

Stannis general approval of Jon Snow was beyond awesome. It was like he was waiting for Jon to do something so he could show his approval.

Brienne's revenge was even more awesome

Denis Villeneuve confirmed filming begins next summer at TIFF amongst other thing's about BR2.

“To be very honest with you, Harrison was part of the project before I arrived. He was attached to the project right from the start with Ridley. I met him and he’s honestly one of the nicest human beings I’ve met and is one of my favorite actors of all time, so for me it’s a lot of pleasure.”

It’s more than nervous, it’s a deep fear. I mean when I heard that Ridley Scott wanted to do another movie in the Blade Runner universe, at first my reaction was that it’s a fantastic idea, but it may be a very bad idea. I’m among the hardcore fans of Blade Runner. Blade Runner is one of my favorite movies of all time. It’s a movie that is linked with my love and passion for cinema. I’m coming from a small town in Quebec where, at that time, there was no internet and the way to be in contact with movies were those American fan magazines like Fantastic Films and Starlog and I still remember the shock, the impact of seeing the first frames, the first pictures coming out of Blade Runner. Me and my friends were in awe, so excited and the movie was such a strong cinematic experience. A new way of seeing sci-fi.

For me it’s like a monument. So when I realized one day that they put in front of me the Blade Runner project screen play, for me I was very moved to have this honor to read the screenplay, but I accepted to do it because I felt that Hampton Fancher, Ridely Scott and Michael Green did a fantastic job on the screenplay. It’s a very powerful screenplay. And I felt that it made sense to me and I had the Ridley Scott blessing. But you ask if I hesitated. I hesitated massively. It took me a lot of time to say yes. Not because I didn’t believe in it, because I was like ‘Who am I to dare to touch that?’ And at the same there’s a part of me that said, ‘I’m a hardcore fan, I don’t want to **** that up.’”

It’s a huge challenge, because you don’t want to cut and paste, otherwise why [do it]? And at the same time you have to respect what was done, so you have to find the right equilibrium between being faithful to the first one and bringing something new at the same time that will make sense to the Blade Runner universe.”

“The movie will be autonomous and at the same time there will be some link, but I cannot talk too much about it. The only thing I can say is I was raised with the original cut, the original version that Ridley doesn’t like. That’s the Blade Runner that I was introduced to at the beginning and that I loved for years, and then I must say that I’m someone that appreciated the very last cut, the [Final Cut] version. So between all the different cuts, for me it’s the first and the very last that I’m more inspired by.”

“I’m totally aware of the huge challenge. It’s a risk I know that every single fan who walks into the theater will walk in with a baseball bat. I’m aware of that and I respect that, and it’s okay with me because it’s art. Art is risk, and I have to take risks. It’s gonna be the biggest risk of my life but I’m okay with that. For me it’s very exciting… It’s just so inspiring, I’m so inspired. I’ve been dreaming to do sci-fi since I was 10 years old, and I said ‘no’ to a lot of sequels—I couldn’t say ‘no’ to Blade Runner. I love it to much, so I said, ‘Alright **** it, I will do it and give everything I have to make it great.’”

The only thing I can say is I was raised with the original cut, the original version that Ridley doesn’t like.

Oh boy, awful narration and happy ending confirmed

DV during the recording: "That's great, Harrison. But let's do one more, and this time, really sell the fact that you don't give a ****".

 

[Black Narcissus]

The tech to film from a toilet is now better today, Harrison will be fine.

 

[Fallen Angel]

I'm not sure Ryan Gosling was ever confirmed but now he has been by the director.

Ryan Gosling and Harrison Ford are confirmed for that?

Yes, yes. They are our actors, the people that are attached to the project right now.
