I, like everyone else, assume this will be terrible.

Ya gotta hand it to Dennis Villeneuve, not only did he have the balls to tackle a sequel to arguably one of the greatest sci-fi classics ever made he went and knocked it the fuck outta the park and dare I say it, made a better film...

Without him at the helm, I dunno man but with Amazon and their unlimited coffers not able to make a decent LOTR show, this has mediocre written all over it

I mean it has Princess Zelda in it how could it be bad?

Do we know who is the show runner is? That will tell us everything we need to know.

This will be the first big budget (I assume) post Jennifer Salke show, it will be interesting if Amazon is going to continue on as it has the last few years.

We all know how this will end.

I loved Blade Runner 2049. Much more than the original. It was a bonafide classic right out of the gate and one of the best sequels ever made. Amazon will 100% ruin this franchise just like they did with LOTR. Or anything they touch. They have no taste. It's just a rich company with unlimited resources but without a creative bone in their body. A recipe for disaster.

He made a sci-fi epic to what was a detective noir drama in the future. Completely misread the original movie, I watched it and I don't remember a single thing. I remember every minute of the original.

I havent heard that perspective before.

 

[DKehoe]

I haven't watched 2049 since it came out. I should change that.

Time for Phoebe Waller Bridge to take the story on a bold new direction.

Hey Hollywood / Streaming networks, is it no longer possible for you to have a single original thought ?

With thunderous applause?
