Other titles include Sony's disappointing raunchy comedy Rough Night, a 4K edition of the great horror-deconstruction . the various cuts of 'Blade Runner,' it's a concise history of one the most convoluted film reconstructions ever attempted. For one of the first memorable times in my life, I had to actually consider character motivation and the inner conflict of that individual.

What’s more, the Final Cut version presented here really does feel like the definitive version of Scott’s vision.So all I’ll say here is that it’s simply one of the greatest - and best looking - sci-fi films ever made; a stunning and remarkably timeless reminder of just what a visionary director Sir Ridley Scott was back in his relative youth. Extras: Language(s): English, German, Castilian Spanish, Finnish, Subtitles: Dutch, English, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Danish, Norwegian, Swedish, Finnish, Castilian Spanish, Interactive Menu, Screen ratio 1:1. Although still presented in 1080p/VC-1 video (again identical on both the Blu-ray and HD DVD), the quality here is noticeably inferior. While the 4K Blu-ray certainly looks much more detailed than its actually rather soft looking HD Blu-ray counterpart, though, this explanation doesn’t feel right.

Featurette: "Deck-A-Rep: The True Nature of Rick Deckard" (SD, 10 minutes) - Finally, the answer to the question that's been on every 'Blade Runner' fan's lips over the last twenty-five years: is Deckard really a replicant or not? I'll leave it up to the viewer to decide which version of the film is the best, but they all have something to offer. e., '80s) upgrades, Kaplan and Westmore also share a wealth of never-before-seen test photos and artwork including everything from Rachel's fantastic, multi-striped suit to Deckard's close-cropped hairstyle. In a future of high-tech possibility soured by urban and social decay, a 21st-century detective is on the trail of four fugitive replicants—cloned humans that are now illegal—and is drawn to a mystery woman whose secrets may undermine his soul. But the lossless audio does enrich the experience transcendentally in comparison to the DD Surround of the DVD.It looks and sounds fantastic, and the minor editing and cosmetic tweaks finally eradicate any lingering memory of the dreadful narration and happy ending. However, Scott has now stated that despite the "Director's Cut" moniker, he was not intimately involved with that version of the film, and that it was rushed into theaters without all of his hoped-for changes.

The biggest compliment I can pay to "Dangerous Days" is that despite the punishing runtime, I didn't look at my watch once. A commercial flop upon its original theatrical release in 1982, in the intervening years the film has risen phoenix-like from the ashes, thanks almost entirely to a growing legion of cultists who largely discovered the film on tape and disc. The five discs full of extras are also extraordinary, and it's hard to imagine any 'Blade Runner' fan wanting more. Many, many scenes that have been discussed for years are finally revealed, including Deckard's visit to Holden in the hospital, expanded material with Blatty and Tyrell, a completely different opening, and even a first-ever glimpse's of Deckard's wife! In any case, since the workprint is labeled as just that -- a workprint -- and is included here for its historical value, its poor quality doesn't detract at all from the set.

While some criticize the film for being visually indulgent, style over substance, I would counter that those people just aren't really and honestly looking at the film.
