Blade Runner To Get Theater Re-Release

[knapplc]

As much as I enjoyed the movie, the book was much better. But then, I guess that's the case most of the time. I feel like whatever someone puts on the big screen isn't always necessarily the way I saw it in my mind's eye. But it was a good flick. I'm looking forward to seeing it on the big screen.

Really? I thought the book was just OK. I read PKD’s original book after I had seen the movie, and since the movie was so good that may have jaded me a bit. For certain the books by Jeter were awful (although I just found out that there was a third book by Jeter that I’d never heard about before).

Yeah, I read the book and my mind is pretty good at placing things together, so I typically enjoy the books better. Plus, I like PKD's style oif writing, so I was really interested to keep reading. I'm not taking anything away from the movie. I thought it was great. I just like all of the little details, like descriptions of smells and feelings, that sometimes the look on an actor's face can't describe. Personal preference, though.

Never seen it ... is that blasphemy?

Anyways, I also heard that a theatre re-release was in the works for Boondock Saints. Should be interesting to the that on the big screen. That movie is ridiculously overrated, but it's still a good movie.

Never seen Blade Runner either.
To really appreciate Boondock Saints you have to be Irish (I am and I love that movie) I don't know if I would go see it in theatres though, since I have watched it about 10 times.

If you like sci-fi at all you'll like Blade Runner. I'd wait until it comes to the theaters if you can, though. It's definitely better to see on the big screen.

I wonder when they'll re-release LOTRs in the theatre?

Best trilogy of all time - sorry, but Star Wars had hit or miss sequels... all of the LOTRs were great!

They may have had hobbits, but they were much cooler than Ewoks or Jub-Jubs.

Usually, you wait a decade or so for a re-release. And that is a rare occasion.

LOTR was just out, for crying out loud.

Oh, and while LOTR was good, the original trilogy owns. By a lot.
