A trailer has failed when you have no idea what the fuck the movie is about by the end of it.
- would you rather they give away the entire plot?Milan
- I disagree. I want only my interest piqued. I want to know as little about plot as possible.ETM
- All I got out of it was visuals, no tease at all about the story. Thats not good.CygnusZero4
- Really? I thought it was pretty easy to read between the lines... didn't seem subtle to me.ben_
- If you've seen the original, that trailer makes more sense than 90% of trailers. That might not be saying much but I wouldn't want to know more.CyBrainX

lolol can ryan gosling do anything but that hard stare? he's the new charles bronson
- I'll take his hard stare over Ford's perpetual deer-in-headlights mugging.Continuity
- Would you compare him to charlie b? It's like calling Hayden Christensen - darth vader...ArchitectofFate
- would you really take Ryan Gosling over Harrison Ford?CyBrainX

For some balance... (zero spoilers)
- "At its centre is Ryan Gosling, an actor who has built a cottage industry out of playing characters who sport an entirely blank expression." lolyuekit
- For the most part it does seem to be getting good reviews though.
https://www.rottento…yuekit - just checked his other sci fi movie ratings, not convinced. he's all over place.
https://letterboxd.c…Bluejam - i'm a star wars fan but to give Force Awakens 4.5 stars ...
https://media.giphy.…Bluejam - Yep - agreed. But also worries me, the general reaction to Blade Runner reminds me of the hysteria for Force Awakens which lets face it deserved little of thefadein11
- praise it got. It's easier re-watching the last 2 prequels than that haha.fadein11
- actually looking at his other reviews though - I think we may have similar tastes.fadein11

Dont read any reviews dont watch any teasers or trailers.
If the reviews are super good, your expectations will be super high...
- ... he says on page 3 of the thread, after everyone's seen all the teasers and trailers.Continuity
- [Bennn stating the obvious again]imbecile
- Never forget the universally good reviews for the lame ass Force Awakens.fadein11
- That's not the reason not to watch trailers but avoiding spoilers is aways mandatory.CyBrainX
- I got offered $2000 to write good reviews on qbn. I refused.Beeswax

I just realized I’m friendly with the guy who made those posters that you guys ripped apart a few posts up.

"It just has to be experienced on the biggest screen possible. Blade Runner 2049 is a narcotic spectacle of eerie and pitiless vastness, by turns satirical, tragic and romantic."
"Its mind-boggling, cortex-wobbling, craniofacial-splintering images are there to trigger awe or even a kind of ecstatic despair at the idea of a post-human future, and what it means to imagine the wreck of our current form of homo sapiens."
- Peter Bradshaw in the Guardian
* Bradshaw is well known for plot reveals. I haven't read the whole review for that reason.
- I'm generally a fan of his reviews.
Just read it.
Seeing it nxt Fri.
I am less worried now.fadein11 - i read it.
he drops a few plot details, nothing too major, but yeah, stay way.Bluejam - apparently it's better than the original first film according to one headline i saw
7 days to go ...Bluejam - I had v.low expectations for this but it seems from a visual point of view alone it's going to be worth it.fadein11
- The fact that he's reproduced a key scene from the original, like he did with the Alien reboot, makes me say no thanks.see_thru
- *prequel...see_thru
- *they not he...goddammit...see_thru
- he didn't direct the Alien prequelfadein11
- I'm generally a fan of his reviews.

- imagine the hard and detailed work that goes into justnome of the models, jesus. history in the making.helloeatbreathedrive
- Hipstersinstrmntl
- As much as I love 3D, model making is amazing. The original was just a phenomenal vision and superb talent everywhere.formed
- ^ its all about lens, lighting and techniques. To make a model work you need to understand all of cinema history. To make a 3d model you just need the internet.mugwart
- Shame with modern photography - the lens make the photo and subject immortal. I find digital looses all that as mainly the lens are mass produced.mugwart

- detritus, how was it?utopian
- Nothing like the movie.detritus
- Essentially, none of Phillip K. Dick's stories are like the movies. They use them as basic jump off points.ETM
- Whilst that is very true, I was making a joke about the idea of having been surprised to find myself watching a gay porn version, as hinted by utopian :)detritus

- Nice to see Dave Bautista starting to have some serious acting chops. Hope he gets more worthwhile roles after this.face_melter
- The character he plays seems really decent. Looking forward to the movie.PhanLo
- Seems generic and predictable? Also not into the digital look of it.inteliboy
