CMT - Blade Runner



Classic Movie Trailers: “Blade Runner” (1982)

If, as an adult, you were made aware that you had four more years to live, what would you do? You could savor every moment of life and accomplish more, in your four years, than the average person does in forty-five. Or, you could rally, war, maim and kill, for a chance to delay your ultimate fate….

What impresses me most about Blade Runner, is how well it holds up today. When you watch the film, you’re engrossed in a 1982 vision of the future. While inside of this world, you never have a moment of disillusionment, and that’s because everything you see on screen is real. Models were used, for futuristic buildings and vehicles, and there are no CG characters or stuntmen; all the players are being depicted by real, flesh and blood people.

But what about that question I posed, at the beginning? Would you accept your end, or would you end a life to extend yours? Whatever answer you'd give, would be “More Human Than Human”.
