Great scene but as far as I’m concerned it’s the only thing it’s got going for it, other than some short dialogue between Batty & Tyrell or Daryl Hannah going all gymnastic.

Yeah I don’t even remember that. Tried watching it once and lost interest pretty quickly.

You have no imagination and an attention span of a tsetse fly so there no point me trying to explain you why. If you don't like then it then go watch 50 shades of gray or something like that which is probably more up your alley.

lol, I’m never short on something to watch.
So what part of imagination is needed to think Bladerunner is an “all time classic”..?
I mean, give some reasons why it’s so great. Sure Harrison’s acting is pretty cool but he’s basically just playing himself, the FX look sweet but simple, the villains don’t seem too dangerous and is Sean Young really the MacGuffin or was it the toy maker?

If you've never seen it on the "big screen" then you'll never appreciate it for what's it's worth. It's possibly as good as Ridley Scott's other masterpiece "ALIEN". If you have no imagination to appreciate a fine well made scifi film with such a simple little storyline then I can't help you any scenes and other reasons why this film is so good, If you don't like it then so be it.

So you can’t tell me why it’s so good, not even in your own words besides being bedazzled by a big screen?

So now whilst you’re confused over why you think Bladerunner is so cool (because you can’t seem to explain why you even like it) what did you think of Sir Scott’s ‘Prometheus’..?

Rutger Hauers performance.So you can’t tell me why it’s so good, not even in your own words besides being bedazzled by a big screen?
Clever ending where the villain becomes a hero, the hero becomes a villain
Exciting themes like mortality, finding meaning, the essence of humanity.
I hated Blade Runner 2049, not a patch on Ridley Scott's brilliant original. A bit like the latest Dune atrocity - David Lynch's beautifully shot original will never be surpassed despite what the producers did to it in the cutting room.

Probably too emotionally challenging and sad for the OP's tastes.

I know Prometheus was almost universally panned by the critics but I loved it. There's one in every crowd

I didn't mind Prometheus either. I wouldn't go out of my way to watch it but if it was on Foxtel or something I'd have it on.I know Prometheus was almost universally panned by the critics but I loved it. There's one in every crowd
The latest Avatar movie is utter crap and way too long and sadly I think James Cameron has gone full nuff nuff.
Shame because he produced and directed 3 of my all time favourite movies Terminator 1 and 2 and Aliens.
