Blade Runner Is 25!

Bladerunner_2

Hey nerds! Can you believe it?  Blade Runner, Ridley Scott's dazzling adaptation of the Philip K. Dick novel Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? was released on June 25, 1982 and quickly took its place among the best sci-fi films ever made. Scott and Dick's dystopian vision of Los Angeles in 2019, in which replicants are basically manufactured slaves, added to the age-old question, "What makes one human?" The breathtaking score by Vangelis and the amazing performances by Harrison Ford, Rutger Hauer, and Sean Young all help to make this flick one of my all-time favorites.

omg, I LOVE that movie. Sean Young was SO BEAUTIFUL (still is). And Darryl Hannah pleasantly surprised me.

I remember buying square rocks glasses like Harrison Ford's because I thought they were so cool-looking! Even though I still thought wine coolers were pretty sophisticated and hadn't graduated to highballs yet.
