minus-squareJillyB@beehaw.orglinkfedilinkarrow-up2·4 months agoHave you seen Blade Runner 2049? That movie has an excellent story. Very little dialogue was needed to tell it.
minus-squareFeydaikin@beehaw.orglinkfedilinkarrow-up5·4 months agoI think I’d rather point at the original Blade Runner. The sequel fell a bit short for me in comparison. Ofcause that’s just my opinion.
minus-squareJillyB@beehaw.orglinkfedilinkarrow-up4·4 months agoVilleneuve directed 2049. I would have said Dune but that was a book adaptation. Also I think 2049 was every bit as good as the original (admittedly not as genre-defining).
minus-squareFeydaikin@beehaw.orglinkfedilinkarrow-up8·4 months agoBlade Runner was also a book adaptation: 'Do Androids Dream Of Electric Sheep" Although the movie does take some liberties with the source material. But that aside, I felt 2049 kinda missed the point that BR tried to make by trying to adress the questions posed with a wildly simplified answer. Philosophical conundrums are typically supposed to be thought about, not solved.
minus-squareVodulas [they/them]@beehaw.orglinkfedilinkarrow-up2·4 months agoI disagree. 2049 was very pretty, but the story was kinda lackluster
