I went to see this last night in all it's retro future technicolour glory. Lovely

Harrison Ford looks disturbingly young though.

and some things I failed to notice the first 300 times:


Dekkerd's shirts- good god they are terrible.


The irises all shining - that must be new?


before i go on.......does anyone else here care?

and is he one or isnt he? that's what i really want to discuss

so good to see it in full technicolour on the big big sreen.


the film is v different from the book though.


I think he is too,

but still....why does he feel his injuries so much? and why is he not as good at fighting and jumping than the others?

Is he a special 'crappy old cop' model?

he can have the cash. I dont mind.

So what was new?


the moving photo from rachel's 'memories'? that was in the directors cut too i thought?


I agree, he soo is one.

but why he is he so crap at jumping and fighting? and choosing shirts?

is he another nexus6? or maybe he's a 5?

The book is a must-read, on the first read you may hate it, but a second reading helps put everything into perspective. Rudy Rucker put out some pretty funky material along similar lines, his Wetware books may melt your brain a bit, I suppose he was on mescaline while writing but are a great companion to Do Androids...I had a most enviable collection of sci-fi and cyberpunk from that period up till say 1990 but gave all my fiction away some years ago when I hit 30. I figured half my life is over so better to dedicate it to learning instead ;-) .


This remake got a cinematic showing in the states, but for some reason a lot of places didn't end up screening it...Would be great at the Imax or Sunset House (is that right? The tax office place with the ice rink in winter).


If you've ever been to Shibuya or read a fair few French pilled up fantasy comics you'll see where Syd Mead found a lot of his inspiration..

I thought the Director's Cut was an improvement on the original, but this is just milking it. Do the new effects look completely out of place (like in the patched-up Star Wars movies)?

Ridley Scott says he was inpired by Hartlepool!Unflattering film credit for Hartlepool

Any director that thinks people are going to watch his film more than once, twice even has an overinflated ego. Life is too short to watch any film more than twice I reckon. And I was referring to the visual artist, not the director :) . Never been to Hartlepool, is it really that bad? ::o

If you'd like to see more of Shibuya on film, do check out this great show: http://wiki.d-addicts.com/Sh15uya

I enjoyed it, and has some great music to boot.Especially reccomended if you liked the (criminally overlooked) Dark City, itself "inspired" by an old series http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Megazone_23 along with some late 70s cyberpunk.

    • CIC is not the appropriate vehicle for a fund-raising intermediary.  CICs are for businesses that typically sell something or provide a service for social good  but are not for profit; a community cafe or arts centre, or an IT skills training centre for  unemployed people. it costs £65 to set up  a CIC, the scrutiny is less than for a full charity, and the administrative burden is pretty low if you don’t file accounts. It’s hard to prove a negative, but if you were trying to build a credible, positive case for giving money to street collectors for CityHive CIC, that might be a little harder still… tho thank you, Zahid for joining the Forum to give it a go.

    • Umm think this was covered in the previous post?? 
    • If you're a fundraising intermediary, reporting promptly and accurately on how you've raised and spent funds seems quite important.
