Blade Runner

A collaboration between Sir Ridley Scott and Harrison Ford can’t go wrong. It was the birth of one of movie’s finest, “Blade Runner” in 1982.

It wasn’t a movie critic’s darling back then. Somehow, I like it a lot and this movie had achieved cult status envisioning the Nightmare of the Future. The portrayal of life in 2019 showcases Japanese influences, urban city decadences, darkness, morbidity and pollution in our environment.

Set in LA, the scenic shots produces an America that looks like a ghastly dark Asia. Environmentally sense, it is nightmarish. Acid rain throughout and the film is eternally nightfall. A world so, so cold….

This film in her cyberpunk best could have shaped MTV, films and night entertainment. Can’t help but see that dark films such as Terminator, Black Rain amongst others are like indirect offshoot spawns of Blade Runner.

I wonder how many in blogosphere loves “Blade Runner”.
