Making a sequel to a film 35 years after it's original release is always going to be risk and while this film mightn't not been a financial hit similar to the original the creative aspects of the film were extremely successful. While I didn't nessarily love Blade Runner I have to appreciate the great talent that went into every department of the film. In particular the visual effects, the standout image featured above is a beautiful moment where reality mixes with fantasy and is beautiful crafted (the budget of the film shows in a scene like this). Great work by this team and while it's not reinventing the wheel I have to give credit where credit is due.
