Blade Runner (1982) is a testament to Ridley Scott's determination to make the movie as he envisioned it. Being without CGI (maybe the last sci-fi movie without it?) forced the effects to be analog/organic, and more difficult to capture on film. Ridley was also a demanding taskmaster requiring lots of takes to get what he wanted. That's what I get from this video.
It's one of my top favorite movies of all time as well. How many movies have had 7 versions? The first movie I saw of his was Alien (1979), another landmark. There have been so many from Ridley over the years- I will always watch his products.
The sequel Blade Runner 2049 is as good as the original in my opinion overall. I believe Ridley wasn't available to direct it, but they got Denis Villeneuve, who's talents are enormous. I'm looking forward to his future movies.
