One of my all time favorites: Upcoming Blade Runner Sequel Gets a Title: Blade Runner 2049 (theverge.com)

The sequel to Ridley Scott's 1982 sci-fi classic "Blade Runner" is officially titled "Blade Runner 2049." 


Harris Ford is confirmed to be returning as Rick Deckard. Other stars include Ryan Gosling, Jared Leto, Robin Wright, Dave Bautista and Lennie James.

The Verge reports:

  There's a hashtag included in the press release, of course (#BladeRunner2049), but other than that there's little else revealed about the story itself.

 There is a new picture out, however, with Scott, Villeneuve, Gosling, and Harrison Ford chatting over some Blade Runner weaponry.


Whether you like or hate the new title will most likely depend on how excited you are about knowing the exact year that the new film takes place.

 The original was set in 2019, so it's good that they're tacking on an extra 30 years because the Los Angeles of today really doesn't look anything like the dystopian vision Scott wowed audiences with way back when. 

But hey -- there's still time.

 Blade Runner 2049 is scheduled to arrive in theaters on October 6th, 2017.

There was just something special bout seeing it in Black and White.

A dude had uploaded it to YouTube, it lasted for a little while before being taken down.

It kind of went viral in it's short life span.

I am pleased that there is going to be a sequel after so many years have passed.

Harrison Ford is much older and a lot slower but he still can act.

He makes the movie what it is.

I will be in line at the big screen for sure!
