Hard to believe it has been 25 years(Review From Amazon) | General Comments:
It is great to see Blade Runner finally being the deluxe treatment. With so many options, it is hard to choose, but this 5-disc Blu-ray edition seems like the most value for your money, but then I guess some will pay twice the price and go for the fancy box that comes with the ultimate colector's edition.
Blade Runner has long deserved better treatment than it has been given over the years. This is one of the quintessential science fiction movies, based on Philip K. Dick's Do Androids Dream of Electric Sleep. Of course, Blade Runner is a more catchy title and Ridley Scott took a lot of liberties with the story, but he created a masterwork in the process.
Blade Runner paints a distopic vision of the future set in a murky Los Angeles, where Deckard (Harrison Ford) tracks down androids that have escaped from their work colonies. He meets his match in Roy Batty (Rutger Hauer), an android who has taken on many human features and seeks out his maker. While the movie has many shades of Metropolis and other great science fiction films of the past, it is very much a unique work and has garnered much critical attention over the years. If one can, one should experience the movie in 70 mm, as it will simply blow you away with its visual effects.
It is hard to believe it has been 25 years since it was first released. The collection offers numerous versions of the movie, including the all important workprint version. |

Oh, its an awesome movie...(Review From Amazon) | General Comments:
But seriously, you guys know it won't be 5 blu-ray discs, right? That would defeat the purpose of the new formats. Both the blu-ray and hd-dvd versions of Blade Runner will be 1 disc each. The standard dvd will be 4 discs, or 5 in the LE case. Visit the Warner Bros web site as Amazon is not publishing the dvd to get accurate info. |
