More Dreaming Androids

First, Planet of the Apes, now Blade Runner.

I can't wait.

From the NYT...

“It’s too bad she won’t live,” Edward James Olmos tells Harrison Ford in “Blade Runner.” “But then again, who does?” And then again, there are those movies that just live on forever: Ridley Scott, who directed that moody 1982 science-fiction film noir, will direct and produce a new feature that is being described as a “Blade Runner” follow-up.

The original “Blade Runner,” which was adapted from the Philip K. Dick story “Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?”, starred Mr. Ford as a human bounty hunter (or is he?) charged with hunting down lifelike androids in a future version of Los Angeles. Though the film got a mixed reception in its day it has become a cult classic.

The first time I saw Blade Runner, I hated it. The second, third, and fourth time, I loved it.
