Oh shit, Dave Bautista, didn't know he was in this.

Looks boss.

1000000% chance he's a replicant.

So damn beautiful
 
I guess I didn't realize that the screenplay was written by Hampton Fancher, who wrote the original film, and Michael Green, who is the co-executive producer and a writer on American Gods with Bryan Fuller.

We may be in better hands here than we thought.

I don't know that Hampton actually wrote anything for this movie, though. I believe he's getting a credit because one of his earlier scripts for Blade Runner was the basis for this one.

I've read Fancher is credited because they're using elements of his original screenplay, but I'm not sure if that's really true and if he's actually involved in 2049.

And he wrote the awesome Blade Runner game. The guy's good.

Damn, this sounds even better! Even the game was good.

And not a single win. What in the actual fuck.

From the docs, the movie was poorly received by the public back in the day. Maybe the Academy thought the same thing.

I dunno...parts of it looked good, parts of it looked bad...I think I'm way too defensive of the original (it's my favorite film) to give this a fair shake, though.
 
Yeah, that's what I was wondering about myself. I dont' know what it is that Gosling is trying to figure out, but what with watching a replicant get born, and that specific line, it really does seem like we're dealing with a movie where humanity is either already outnumbered by Replicants, or is facing an immediate future where that's about to happen.

And Robin Wright's character said the world is built on a wall. I don't know if that's literal or metaphorical or both. Could be saying the wall that divides humans and replicants is the ability to procreate. "There is an order to things. That's what we do here, keep order." I think that line blurring between replicant and human is what'll plunge society into chaos. Everyone freaking out and being paranoid over who is a replicant and human when there is little to no distinction.

Movie description in video,
Thirty years after the events of the first film, a new blade runner, LAPD Officer K (Ryan Gosling), unearths a long-buried secret that has the potential to plunge what's left of society into chaos. K's discovery leads him on a quest to find Rick Deckard (Harrison Ford), a former LAPD blade runner who has been missing for 30 years.

holy shit mackenzie davis is really channeling pris here

I thought Villeneuve managed to get Emily Blunt again. They look similar there.

That trailer was super duper white washed, saw nothing to be excited over, just music, shocked/blank faces and blood, nothing more.

I'm hyper sceptical but I'll try reel it in. At least Ridley Scott isn't directing so there's that.

Looks too clean for my taste (maybe flat is a better word?) I like my Cyberpunk grimier.

I guess its the problem with these sequels that come up after several years after the original. They tend to look like newer films who've aped the same style. I didn't expect this to look grimy and gritty as the original, but it looks like Ghost in the Shell.
 
Looks good, and I'm glad they aren't just vomiting the entire plot out in the trailer.

Some of the sets look a little out of place for a Blade Runner movie, but maybe it's just me.

There's only been one Blade Runner movie, so how do we know what sets should look like in other locations?

As I watched the trailer, all I could think was "At least they nailed the visuals."

I have faith only because Villeneuve is directing, this trailer didn't do much for me.

Outside of some of the rainy vista shots, it just looks too clean (lacks smoke everywhere). Reminds me of Ghost in the Shell live action.

Cool music though.
 
Looks cool, I'm in. I expected this movie to feel like a desperate hollywood sequel but it's actually got some pretty legitimate style going on.

Insane For Sony
Here's two png captures I made from prores version of the trailer (it's still 1080p footage, which means that the movie is likely not being mastered in 4K). Looks nice and uncompressed, good wallpaper material.
