As much as belong to the camp that Ridley Scott’s 1982
sci-fi classic Blade Runner doesn’t need a sequel—it’s a
goddamned masterpiece—I’ll cop to being all kinds of jazzed for Blade Runner 2049. It looks weird and mysterious and like an extension of
the original atmospherically, aesthetically, and tonally. Hell, even the score
sounds like an inevitable evolution of what came before. We have to wait until
October to actually see it, but this majestic new trailer should keep us
occupied for a few minutes.
