*This publication was also writen in* SPANISH *and* PORTUGUESE . IMDb When we talk about trying to “predict the future” through what is possible through art (in this case, cinema), the universe of the Seventh Art has a very diverse selection of movies on this subject. The vast majority are very efficient movies (narratively and visually speaking) and ahead of their time, proving the creative power of human beings, w…More
From the movie Blade Runner, we know everything, at least those of us who are science fiction fans, and so today I would like to delve into just one character from the film: Rachael! In a rainy, surreal, and gloomy Los Angeles where technology has advanced at the expense of human beings, forced to kill androids for fear that they develop far superior human capabilities, one of the slogans of the Tyrell Corporation i…More
# Favorite Movie with Vintage Technology Source Ridley Scott's revolutionary science fiction movie "Blade Runner" has become one of my favourite vintage technology movies other than Back to the Future. In the 1982 movie, which depicts a dystopian future in which advanced humanoid robots known as "replicants" have started to pose a threat to society. In order to create a visually attractive and provocative cinematic…More
Earlier this week, one of the CineTV admins posted an article about how they miss Science Fiction from the ‘80s and ‘90s. I have to agree with the general thought there was a lot of great SF produced during these two decades, a lot of which are quite memorable, and some of which have continued to live on within the “culture”. Sure, a game of Global Thermonuclear War sounds like a lot of fun, but maybe stick to a nic…More
Una de las películas de ciencia ficción que más me ha costado ver, principalmente porque me hice una idea que podía ser muy densa y con mucha duración. Ya pude verla y comprobar que tal es en realidad. Estrenada en 1982, siendo su director Ridley Scott. > One of the sci-fi movies that I had the hardest time watching, mainly because I got the idea that it could be very dense and long.

Greetings to all cinema lovers, last week I missed the Cinetv Contest, so this time I did not want to miss the opportunity to participate because the chosen theme liked it a lot, it is about compatting an iconic film of the 80s, as they I have mentioned in previous post I love old movies, being honest I was born in 89, but always on the open -signal television channels of my country transmitted films of the 80s and…More
I recently finally got reading glasses after around a decade of refusing to go through the process. I don't know why I was so stubborn about this because I clearly needed them and they are not expensive but as I may have mentioned in times past, I am selectively lazy and certain things that are just perhaps everyday for most people seem like a huge pain the ass to me. Well I finally ended up with some stock-standard…More
Blade Runner has always been one of my favourite films from a younge age, where my love for the cyberpunk genre began having seen the film airing many times late at night on a small, square television I had in my room. Something about the idea of Blade Runner just impacted me, an interest in the music, the style of it through its mixture of beautiful artificial light and dark, gloomy cities that tower over all light…More
>Rachael: That isn't really my kind of place. Deckard: Go someplace else? Someone will not forget, there is a moment engraved in mind. The experience of movies, music, or any short time, or a scene or fulness of any moment. The atmosphere and feel of that moment are also deeply engraved with your heart and hair. The mind, loneliness, and the soleness of that moment are not even difficult to find the appropriate expr…More
A sci-fi classic Un clásico de la ciencia ficción I've said it before: I'm not a fan of science fiction. By that I mean that most of the movies I watch do not belong to this genre. What's more, I think that next to action and horror movies, sci-fi is the other type of cinema that attracts me the least, not because of anything specific against it, it's just that I like more dramas and movies with few visual effects.…More
I am a lover of rock music, I love electric guitars that vibrate with distorted sounds. But over time I learned to listen to film soundtracks, often classical music revisited in a modern key and I am literally in love with the soundtracks of 80s films, I think they have reached their maximum level of expression. Some soundtracks have become more important than even the movies themselves and I find it very difficult…More
Source *The screenshots through this post were taken by myself* Inspired by the 1968 novel "Do Androids dream of electric sheep?" Blade Runner is a 1982 film starring Harrison Ford and directed by acclaimed director Ridley Scott, mainly recognized for the film "Alíen."

Blade Runner, the SF movie got me to think about how far we have innovated technology. The other day, I watched Blade Runner, a movie which was released in 1982, a science fiction movie. One of my friends suggested watch the movie, and somehow the movie got me to think about how BTC and other cryptocurrencies will be replaced fiat currencies in the future. Well, or maybe (highly possibly, they coexist in many ways l…More
Source Despite the fact I am a huge fan of the science fiction genre, I had never seen this movie until last night. I did see Blade Runner 2049 a couple of years ago but never this one, the original. The story takes place in a very futuristic city with a typical cyberpunk world. However, it might surprise you to know this is supposed to be the year 2019. Clearly, our world is nowhere near as advanced as it is depict…More
Blade Runner is one of the most representative films of the genre and the cyberpunk style, a film that had Harrison Ford as the main character, being one of the best characters of his career and also one of his best films. Due to the success there were many products derived from this franchise, even years later they made a sequel to the 90's film, Blade Runner 2049 (which I haven't seen yet). So it was not surprisin…More
It has always been kept in mind that the second parts are not good, and making a second part of a movie as mythical as Blade Runner was was not easy at all. I want to touch on this point because I find it interesting to see the context that this film brings with it. Not so much talking about Blade Runner 2049, but about the franchise as such. It is something interesting, that without a doubt, completely changed the…More

An absolute masterpiece of science fiction cinema, an avant-garde and not easy to understand film, Blade Runner launches a prediction of what the Earth will be today. Considering that it was shot in 1982 and that the setting is Los Angeles in 2019, Ridley Scott 's direction offers an interpretation, in my view negative, of technological progress and the impact it could have on humans.

Sometimes in the late 1980s "Sfera", club of science fiction aficionados from Zagreb, Croatia, asked its members to take a poll and name the ten best SF movies of all times. The results were printed in "Parsek", club's official fanzine with the accompanying article that commented each film's ranking. As many had expected, the top spot was held by *Blade Runner*, 1982 cult classic by Ridley Scott. However, the author…More

Blade Runner is a feast of image, color, vibe, thought, pace, film past, film future. Directed by Ridley Scott, written by Hampton Fancher and David Webb Peoples (screenplay), based on a novel by Philip K. Dick. I wouldn't call it a neo noir. I'd call it a detective film. Our main character is a hero by Raymond Chandler's standards. There is hope. There is also darkness. All this is carved, painted, and captured vis…More
The movie Blade Runner is an adaptation of the classic dystopian novel “Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?” by Philip K. Dick published in 1968. I just finished reading the novel and I have to say, this is one of the rare cases where it is hard to decide whether the book or the movie are better. So, it’s time to compare them. I will be referring to the director's cut of the movie. I am not going into too much nitp…More
Ridley Scott's outstanding cinematic visions can be perceived as few and far between in recent years, with modern releases being not-so-great sequels of once-great franchises that hailed the science-fiction genre as one for all. Blade Runner the dystopian cyberpunk vision of the future is, in my opinion, the very peak of Ridley Scott's career as a director. The film kickstarted the cyberpunk age of the 80s with a pl…More
