I've been seeing trailers for Snowman and The Foreigner lately. Not sure yet if I'll need to see them.

And looks like Mackensie Davis is going to shine in Bladerunner.

I haven't read the novel for Snowman, or "The Chinaman" for Foreigner, which might be a mimic film of Death Wish.

I saw a tv commercial for Blade Runner 2049 yesterday. Harrison Ford's back in a continuation of Deckard's story, and the effects look pretty good. I'm not getting my hopes up, but I don't think it's gonna stink.

Looks like Deckard has been hiding for 3 decades, so it's like a resurfacing of Deckard's story, secrets, mystery.

Dekard's an old man now. I wonder if Rachel aged with him or stayed young, or if she's even alive.

Are we trying to say that Deckard was a human? Not a replicant? Was that firmly established in any of the various cuts or edits?


Sean Young was attractive back then, but quickly went off the rails after BR. Who could be cast now that resembled Rachel? Or us there enough quality footage to CGI the entire role?

American Made this Friday, and then Bladerunner next Friday.

At least Blade Runner isn't going to be a movie that Hollywood can ruin for me by making a needless re-release of it. I couldn't stand the original movie.

It doesn't make sense, really... Ridley Scott, Sci-Fi, dystopian future, Harrison Ford, freakin robots. Everything I liked growing up in one movie. It just didn't do anything for me.

I dunno. Maybe I should watch it again, now that I'm older. Maybe I just didn't "get" it. It's got to have been almost 30 years since I saw it.

Gotta put this someplace. Sorry if it's off-topic a wee bit.

Now filming, Hellboy (2018) starring David Harbour,
Director: Neil Marshall,

"Hellboy comes to England, where he must defeat Merlin's consort
and Nimue the Blood Queen. But their battle will bring about the
end of the world, a fate he desperately tries to turn away."

I just hope he still has his cats.

... oooOO}{OOooo ...
