    Blade Runner (1982)

    The only film I point to as “favorite-of-all-time.”

    I vacillate between this or Road Warrior.

    I tell people that Blade Runner is my favourite movie, but that statement really downplays just how much I love it.

    I can wax poetic about how it’s one of the last great true analog special effects sci-fi movies, I can rave about Harrison Ford’s performance (despite, or because of, the fact that he was miserable working on the project), I can rant about neo-noir retro-futurism and decaying planets and fears of globalization and how terrifying Rutger Hauer is for hours. Hours.

    But that makes people look at me funny and go “Amber, it’s just a movie. STFU.”

    Also, the book is really good. So.

    the last time I saw it was about 3 years ago and was probably my earliest introduction to cyberpunk media (although I was aware of its existence prior). I should probably see it again!

    It’s really really interesting to watch this movie in black and white. Turn down the color on your TV, and it looks even MORE noir. It’s actually really fantastic in b&w.
