Everyone who recommended or praised "Blade Runner," where are you? Get in here.
I just finished watching the film and, I must say, I am none too pleased.
I can definitely see why the film was polarizing. I'm definitely on the negative side of public opinion, granted I wasn't expecting much to begin with. "Blade Runner" moved way too slowly. It took 55 minutes, 55 minutes, for a single event to happen. Truly torturous. It was bringing back memories of watching Terrence Malick's "The Tree of Life." I only have two positive comments on "Blade Runner." 1. The set design was beautiful. Some of the shots in the film were vibrant and absolutely striking.
And 2. Roy Batty's monologue was the only great, emotionally impactful piece of writing in the entire film.
"I've... seen things you people wouldn't believe. [contemptuous laugh] Attack ships on fire off
the shoulder of Orion. I watched c-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate.
All those... moments... will be lost in time, like [small cough] tears... in rain."
I understand human emotions, and although I do not feel them myself, even that scene triggered something for me.
Unfortunately, sitting through "Blade Runner," a nearly two-hour film, for
those two positives is most definitely not worth. Wait for the remake, kids.
Eaux, I didn't realize it had already been on sale for pre-order. I just saw the gigantic front page banner which did just go up and then the album's iTunes position

All that went up today is "Midnight" which was the promo single before "Magic" + a remix of Midnight by Giorgio Moroder.
Just be grateful I gave you the only two positive things I liked about "Blade Runner," instead of
absolutely destroying the film by putting spotlights on its many, many negatives. Happy Easter.
