Watching Blade Runner (for the first time, for some reason). In the 80s the technological advancement trajectory was such that they really thought in 2019 we'd have flying cars, robots indistinguishable from humans, off-planet mining, and a multiracial America where multiple languages compete over the same territory. Looks like only one of those things came true.
Well wow what a shitty story with dysfunctional drama, aborted plot, and a castrated theme. I gave Ridley Scott the benefit of the doubt but when Philipp K Dick appeared during the ending credits it reminded me why Blade Runner sucked so hard. It's another work where its contribution to tradition (especially the visual language) vastly exceeds its own merit, which is hardly above that of a TV feature/show and completely forgettable. Ford's limp Jewish performance is the icing on the cake.
