S14 Ep708: Blade Runner (The Final Cut, W❤️M)

“He looks like a 1980’s standup comedian!” - Andrew on Deckard’s clothing

On this week’s episode, W❤️M month takes us to 2019 Los Angeles to chat about Royal Rid’s magnificent science fiction classic, Blade Runner! How stunning is the confidence of this film? Was Rutger Hauer ever better in a role? Is there a weirder coat in cinema than the one James Hong sports in this? How creepy are William Sanderson’s eerie toy “friends”? Who would’t want to administer the Voight-Kampff Test on someone? And should George Lucas take a look at this Final Cut to see how you can actually make a decent “special edition” of your movie? PLUS: M. Emmet Walsh’s character Bryant turns out to be a porno parody enthusiast!  

Blade Runner stars Harrison Ford, Rutger Hauer, Sean Young, Edward James Olmos, M. Emmet Walsh, Daryl Hannah, William Sanderson, Joe Turkel, Joanna Cassidy, James Hong, and Brion James as Leon; directed by Ridley Scott.
