Isaac Campos, what? I'm really not a "social justice warrior". The only thing keeping me awake was the loud annoying noises. Why the hell would I go to buzzfeed? Most of their stuff is bullshit.
Just came back from rewatching it. Loved it as much as I did the first time. A woman next to me said that she was bored out of her mind. The film is definitely not for everyone, but let's not act snotty about it guys, let's just appreciate that this film was even made, that a studio gave a film like this a chance and gave Denis Villeneuve free range. It's funny how history has literally repeated it'self here. It remains to be seen as to how BR49 will be looked at in the future. But I personally believe that this film will inspire people. And that's fine with me.
Don't doubt Denis Villeneuve. He's easily one of the best directors working today. I had doubts about this sequel too, until I heard Villeneuve was directing. I've enjoyed everything I've seen that he's made.
I really enjoyed Prisoners and Sicario (after watching Sicario more than once), but to be honest, I wasn't totally invested in Blade Runner 2049, because I already studied so much of the original film at school that I kind of felt exhausted when it came to watching the sequel. I might watch it again someday, though but not immediately.
Mark Parkinson As someone else said, you phrase your critique as if your displeasure falls on Denis, but it's really just your biases infecting it. Not sure why you left this comment, to be honest
By the way when I was watching a movie with you in it with my mom and she got all weirded out about me calling you nick cage and not nicolas cage. I got insecure and thought people just didn't call you nick. I know you are not nick but that story really effected me more then it should have
@@TheWelchProductions- Yah, minor, minor criticism that Cosmo touched upon: The music while excellent, lacks variety and can get oppressive. Which matches the atmosphere but I feel like a touch more levity with some more noir, jazzier music would help lift it up.
As a huge fan of the original Blade Runner, I was damn worried that they would go in the typical reboot/sequel fashion with this. Blade Runner is one of those films that doesn't really need a sequel, it's a perfect self-contained story. So I've never been so nervous about stepping into a theater before. But boy oh boy, was I glad to be wrong. Best movie of the year, and I'd even go as far as to say it's one of the best sequels ever made, on par with films like Empire Strikes Back and The Godfather Part II. It may sound like I'm overpraising it but seriously, it's THAT good. I fully agree that it's not a film for everyone and for those that found it boring and slow, I accept those opinions. But god damn, I loved it.
Agreed. I was happy and nervous when I heard a sequel was being made, especially since the original Blade Runner is my favorite movie. Likewise I was mostly encouraged by the previews, but I had a lingering fear that it would be a lame action movie made to look like BR. But the movie turned out to be very good, exceeding even my higher hopes, and it is completely 'worthy' of the original.
I watched both movies back to back. The first one is waaayy more entertaining and intriguing even for a "simpleton" like me. You cant appreciate the 2nd one unless you're a hardcore fan. The netflix one(altered carbon) is more fun but it can be cheesy at times but yeah, better for casuals.
@@seraby7151 I watched blade runner 2049 without even seeing the first one and I loved it. I immediately watched the first one after wards, I still liked 2049 more than the first one.
Naaaaaah, Blade Runner 2049 won't be remembered. You have to remember the critics didn't suck blade runner's dick like the first time, but the second time they did. It'll be the exact the opposite.
@G Farnsworth That’s pretty much what I thought was the reason people online claim to like it. It’s one of the few slow films in awhile. The thing is that I feel like it has completely generic Hollywood sequel plot, and it didn’t really revolutionize things like the first Blade Runner. I get thinking it’s ingenious compared to a Marvel movie or something, but alongside Space Odyssey or the First Blade Runner it didn’t bring anything new to the table and it’s not going to hold up. It’s just going to remembered as an unusually slow movie for the last decade.
Possibly the best movie Ive seen the last decade. Dont remember having such a powerful experience in a movie theater since I was a young impressionable kid.
I didn’t think Hollywood was even capable of producing a movie like this anymore. I was utterly blown away and I left the theater speechless and deep in thought. It was bold and brave - I’d dare say that modern movie audiences don’t deserve a film this good. This isn’t generic 21st century popcorn fodder, this is fucking art.
This is my #1 movie and it will probably keep that spot for ever. It is just so good... The first time i saw it i got so mesmerised by the visuals and music that i had to watch it again the next day to understand every detail.
Same. It’s been almost two years, and here I am... still watching videos about it, as well as watching it on occasion and talking about it. Not a bit of fat to cut off as far as I’m concerned.
Damned perfect movie. It really cemented my love for Villeneuve as a director, having seen Sicario and Arrival (and loved both). Can't wait for his interpretation of Dune.
Seriously though, this movie was phenomenal! I personally had never seen the original Blade Runner and went to go see 2049 thinking it would be like all the other reboots, where seeing the original didn't matter. BOY WAS I WRONG! That being said, it was still even a great movie without knowing the full picture, since it revolved around a new character and his own new story line, it was all so original and unique that I completely enjoyed it even though I missed a ton of stuff. I actually enjoyed it os much I decided to watch the original afterwards and then go back and watch 2049 again just to see how much I had actually missed, and my lord does it ever make a difference lol Again, I don't think it was completely necessary cause 2049 is just an all around great movie, but seeing the original just makes it THAT much better.
Vicarious 14 Me too,I actually liked the movie,I went to see it with my dad(a huge blade runner fan) and we both liked it a lot. It would be a shame if it was underestimated by the public...
That's interesting that you enjoyed BR2049 WITHOUT having seen the original movie. You're a great test subject of the worth of the movie because you had no pre-conceived ideas going in. It's a great movie which needs to be seen a few times to really appreciate it. Of course the first one was awesome but it's really, like you said, a different movie. All these people who hated BR2049 just wanted a re-hash of first movie. Hampton Fancer, who frickin' wrote both movies, KNOWS what he's doing better than all of us.
A perfect sequel. There are so very few of those out there. Empire strikes back, godfather part 2, T2, and 2049. Like you said, most others are just a rehash. This is something totally different and oh so special.
I watched all the trailers and just assumed Ryan was a human, thus my mind was blown within the first 5 minutes of the film, and continued to be shattered into millions of pieces throughout the rest of the film.
Please take your time and get better my dude But yeah please please PLEASE make more videos on blade runner Like give us your interpretation on blackout 2020 and the other shorts I enjoy your content -CJ
I hate how cinema works. The good stuff is thrown to the side while the piece of shit movies like Transformers and Jurassic World make loads of cheddar...
Cheezus Mice By that logic couldn't you also blame the market and the need for profit? If filmmakers didn't need to make a profit to stay afloat then every movie would be a passion project and therefore more well thought out, well written and well paced movies would be created.
When I first finished this movie I didn't really like certain elements and characters but when I dive into it I actually find myself loving the movie even more, which is what happened when I first watched Blade Runner. Blade Runner 2049 is a damn good movie that Hollywood doesn't have the guts to appreciate.
Here we are in 2019. Watching this video describing 2049 released in 2017. Nice vid by the way. I still say over the past few years my most favorite movies based on older films is Blade Runner 2049 and Fury Road. These two will be remembered for years on.
The shorts created to bridge the stories are equally impressive given how short they are. I recently rewatched everything back-to-back-to-back (starting with the Final Cut of the original) and my brain melted from the awesomness of it all.
The director released a 15 minute short film taking place between the first and second film called Blade Runner Black Out 2022 that helps to clarify some of the references made in 2049, and its available to stream on Crunchyroll though also believe its on youtube as well. I would definitely recommend it to anyone who enjoyed Blade Runner 2049 or who plans to see it.
It's a shame nobody went to see the movie, coz 2049 has been one of, if not the most amazing experience I've had on a cinema. The movie is incredibly good on it's own but what set the experience apart were the visuals and especially the audio. I went with a friend and we went forward to the third line of the cinema (we were alone). And it was freaking intense. The final scene with the protag fighting the chick had my jaw dropped the whole fuckin time. 10/10 experience on the theaters, 8,5/10 movie. Best of the year.
I tried whatching it on Netflix, but it was just too slow for me. Watched Maybe 40 minutes? And not a whole lot happened. Maybe it gets really good later.
@G Farnsworth I dont think you need action every 5 minutes - Shawshank redemption is great. This movie was too slow for me, it did not do enough to reel me in. In my opinion!
2:24 This movie doesn’t have the callbacks like force awakens does“. Actually it does in some scenes. The most obvious one being Gaff’s cameo, and his origami figure. It’s used as foreshadowing (I think) for the wooden horse figure. There was a very subtle reference to the book: when Deckard’s dog shows up in silhouette, I suspected that it was, for a few seconds, meant to resemble a sheep. Deckard in the book was desperate to own a real one. Although they are dark and hard to see, Tyrell’s pyramids are shown before Wallace’s much larger company appears. And then there are the Pan Am and Atari neon advertisements from the original. I don’t see how that is much different to the Force Awakens showing the Millennium Falcon’s hologram chess game and the ball that Luke trained with.
I actually watched this movie without having seen the original Blade Runner and although i knew the bare minimum about how the universe in Blade Runner worked, i did feel pretty confused at times. That being said, it did not stop me from enjoying this movie whatsoever. There is just so much goddam talent jammed into this movie, the acting is fantastic, it looks absolutely gorgeous and i havent seen anything like it ever before or ever since, the soundtrack is awesome and even if i missed out on a lot of context on my first watch there was stil a ton of thought provoking concepts, clever dialogue to be appreciated and engaging stories to follow along with. This movie is a masterpiece.
Same here I didn't watch the first movie before watching this one. And I agree with you. This movie is an absolute Masterpiece it hands down the best movie I've ever seen.
Total Freedom Living I agree with you. It’s been about 2 years since this movie came out and I have yet to see anything like or even remotely close to it. Absolutely one best movies off all time and Instant classic
I was suddenly reminded I haven't rewatched this one yet, and it's easily one of my fave movies from the last decade or so. Time to remedy that. Nice vid. :)
I have really enjoyed so many of your videos - but this really helps me realize you get it all. My girlfriend, who doesn't normally like thoughtful films that I enjoy loved this film.
Please do the full breakdown this movie is amazing and u really hit the nail on the head with all ur points in this vid. Id love to see what u can go into with spoilers
Blade Runner 2049 is easily the best looking film I've seen next to Mad Max Fury Road in the last decade or more. Add the really absorbing story and it's one of the best films I've seen ever.
MARCUS! Break it down man, I feel like you can bring an extremely informed perspective on the film that new viewers like myself can understand. Especially since you do an incredible job tying consistent themes from the old property to the new one, explaining how they're expanded upon in killer sequels (like your Samurai Jack review). Thanks for the great content, and my day a lil more hilarious one vid at a time B^)
Scene-by-scene... Please! Finally got to watch this movie and really liked it. Was a fan of the original and the book, and to see someone make a sequel who actually understood the original and expanded on it rather do a call-back filled remake was so refreshing!
i love that the director even managed to get the studio to make 3 additional short films to add some of the story of what happened in between 2049 and the first film. and since i had watched every single one of them in addition it made the film even more enjoyable for me, since the small things they refference made a lot of sense. funnly enough this movie gave me some of the same satifaction as when you piece togheather the lore of the dark souls games
This was a great sequel! Especially compared to other big budget science fiction movies! I saw this film at 1 am in Universal City, before opening night.. After leaving the theater, I went home and had so many question. As soon as I got back home I started reading "Do androids dream of electric sheep?" again. Re reading the book captivated me so much! And as a production sound guy working in LA! I'm so happy that movies like this still get made. Inspiring!
this video is the blade runner of movie reviews. Fantastic, and you're right, hollywood does not make movies like this, but DENIS VILLENEUVE does. He's such a fantastic director
2049 is more plot driven and less of a mood piece. But while I really enjoyed it I disagree with the video, the original has an incredible amount of ideas and emotion in it too. It isn't one note at all.
I doubt OP actually understood the original. While the visuals are a large part of the appeal of it, philosophy is another huge aspect of it. It posits man by creating replicants, fully self-aware beings, aspiring to godhood. It confronts the viewer with the question of whether replicants by virtue of their self-awareness should be afforded human dignity and right-of-life. And perhaps most importantly of all, it contrasts Deckard, a human, who kills other self-aware beings with Roy, a replicant, who despite having ample reason to kill Deckard decides to save his life even as he's dying. It is by virtue of these rich themes and their reinforcement by the aesthetics that Blade Runner was such an incredible film, and continuous to be admired today, despite its simplistic plot. The new film is in many ways the opposite. There is no longer any philosophical musings on what replicants mean to the concept of humanity (except if you count the plot point of a replicant having had a child, which I don't because the film is always in a hurry to move on with the plot whenever it comes up, never stopping to elaborate). Instead it's a plot twist thriller more than a noir, and is fine enough at what it does. But in terms of greatness I think it's far behind the original.
Funny enough: when saw you "in the box" my first thought was: "Sith lord Marcus" and then you said about the upcoming SW video. Also: thank you for a recommendation. Will do my best to watch both parts over this long weekend. Also-also: Thank you for answering the age old movie question: "What's in THE BOX?!" Now we know it's your head :P
DO A SCENE BY SCENE please. I love this movie so much. Just as good as the original in my opinion, just love the way it was filmed/colors and framing. Good stuff. Love your content! A favorite you are, thank you!
It’s The Godfather Part II of the sci-fi genre. Stands on its own, but perfectly compliments the original. One of my favorite movies of all time. PS watch it on shrooms. Unreal experience.

In the cinema I watched the movie people actually started fucking leaving the theatre at the 2 hour mark, it was sad, but also kind of understandable.
Theres only so long you can stare at a beautiful painting before it gets boring.
Perhaps true, but the only people i am noticing that find it "boring" are usually....simpletons lol
Or you know, people that dont mental masturbate to the thought of themselves being superior because they found a boring pretentious movie to be "art".
Oh hey! One of the people I was talking about. Welcome!
Don't doubt Denis Villeneuve. He's easily one of the best directors working today. I had doubts about this sequel too, until I heard Villeneuve was directing. I've enjoyed everything I've seen that he's made.

This movie doesn’t have the callbacks like force awakens does“. Actually it does in some scenes. The most obvious one being Gaff’s cameo, and his origami figure. It’s used as foreshadowing (I think) for the wooden horse figure. There was a very subtle reference to the book: when Deckard’s dog shows up in silhouette, I suspected that it was, for a few seconds, meant to resemble a sheep. Deckard in the book was desperate to own a real one.
Although they are dark and hard to see, Tyrell’s pyramids are shown before Wallace’s much larger company appears.
And then there are the Pan Am and Atari neon advertisements from the original. I don’t see how that is much different to the Force Awakens showing the Millennium Falcon’s hologram chess game and the ball that Luke trained with.
2+ years later and the movie’s soundtrack playing in the background of your video just hits me hard. This movie was so damn amazing
I hadn't seen the original movie when I watched Bladerunner 2049, and it still became one of my favorite movies of all time instantly.
I actually watched this movie without having seen the original Blade Runner and although i knew the bare minimum about how the universe in Blade Runner worked, i did feel pretty confused at times. That being said, it did not stop me from enjoying this movie whatsoever. There is just so much goddam talent jammed into this movie, the acting is fantastic, it looks absolutely gorgeous and i havent seen anything like it ever before or ever since, the soundtrack is awesome and even if i missed out on a lot of context on my first watch there was stil a ton of thought provoking concepts, clever dialogue to be appreciated and engaging stories to follow along with. This movie is a masterpiece.
Same here I didn't watch the first movie before watching this one. And I agree with you.
This movie is an absolute Masterpiece it hands down the best movie I've ever seen.
Officer KD6-3.7 YES!! Greatest film ever made!!
Total Freedom Living I agree with you. It’s been about 2 years since this movie came out and I have yet to see anything like or even remotely close to it. Absolutely one best movies off all time and Instant classic
These two movies are probably two of the best yet
I was suddenly reminded I haven't rewatched this one yet, and it's easily one of my fave movies from the last decade or so. Time to remedy that. Nice vid. :)
Pleased do a full video on this movie. I love your reviews, and this movie is definitely worth it.
Get well soon!
In my opinion it's a modern masterpiece, one of very few. Trust in Denis Villeneuve!
I have really enjoyed so many of your videos - but this really helps me realize you get it all. My girlfriend, who doesn't normally like thoughtful films that I enjoy loved this film.
Out of all the other film critic I have watched so far, I so happened to agree just about most of the points you made about this movie, spot on!!!
Hell yeah a scene by scene would be great
bruh you congested?
Check this out bruh: 6:45
Please do the full breakdown this movie is amazing and u really hit the nail on the head with all ur points in this vid. Id love to see what u can go into with spoilers
As soon as Sea Wall started playing in the background I got chills. I love the score for this film
This is the celluloid equivalent of a Dali painting. A true masterpiece
Blade Runner 2049 is easily the best looking film I've seen next to Mad Max Fury Road in the last decade or more. Add the really absorbing story and it's one of the best films I've seen ever.
+1 for scene-by-scene breakdown of BR 2049. Hope you've gotten better from your sickness!
Good videos man, remember your channel at like 18k. Keep it up.
Honestly I think 2049 will be financially successful in the long run similar to the original. It without a doubt is cult classic material.
“Full sequel - a real sequel” -
That is it！Thank you.
MARCUS! Break it down man, I feel like you can bring an extremely informed perspective on the film that new viewers like myself can understand. Especially since you do an incredible job tying consistent themes from the old property to the new one, explaining how they're expanded upon in killer sequels (like your Samurai Jack review). Thanks for the great content, and my day a lil more hilarious one vid at a time B^)
This movie was so masterful I adored it, couldn’t stop thinking about it after viewing
Now for the Dune movie I am hyped. Real substantial hype
scene by scene might be a bit extreme, but I wouldn't mind seeing a video essay of this movie from you m' dude
Dude, your sound edits with the score are really good. New sub xD
I keep coming back to this movie every year. Just watched it today,! Masterpiece
2049 is dang near in my top 10 favorite movies haha I love it
liked it more than the original, and i've seen Scott's version like 4 times.
You are on point with this one. Well done!
Scene-by-scene... Please! Finally got to watch this movie and really liked it. Was a fan of the original and the book, and to see someone make a sequel who actually understood the original and expanded on it rather do a call-back filled remake was so refreshing!
I have a new respect for the two blade runners.
Marcus, it's almost been two years, when's that scene by scene, huh!?
Both of these movies are some of my favorite movies ever.
To me it's more than a movie, it's an experience, and atmosphere you enter.
I agree completely, both masterpieces.
i love that the director even managed to get the studio to make 3 additional short films to add some of the story of what happened in between 2049 and the first film. and since i had watched every single one of them in addition it made the film even more enjoyable for me, since the small things they refference made a lot of sense. funnly enough this movie gave me some of the same satifaction as when you piece togheather the lore of the dark souls games
2049 is a hard movie. Not only is it slow and three hours long, but its hard to understand if you havent seen the first one
Piroclanidis I feel you unnderstand it enough. You just need a basic explanation of what Blade Runner is about.
Not really. Unless you want to watch the You Tube shorts that give a background build up that 2049 keeps referencing...
But fuck is it worth it!!
It's probably gonna be better than Justice League
Not really that hard to understand
Blade runner 2049= best movie of 2017 and best sequel ever made
jonathan sparks YES!!
Also... just wanna say...
Love the channel, bro.

Keep up the good work, cousin.
This was a great sequel! Especially compared to other big budget science fiction movies! I saw this film at 1 am in Universal City, before opening night.. After leaving the theater, I went home and had so many question. As soon as I got back home I started reading "Do androids dream of electric sheep?" again. Re reading the book captivated me so much! And as a production sound guy working in LA! I'm so happy that movies like this still get made. Inspiring!
Do it. Extended review of Bladerunner 2049!
this video is the blade runner of movie reviews. Fantastic, and you're right, hollywood does not make movies like this, but DENIS VILLENEUVE does. He's such a fantastic director
I know it's almost year after you put out this video, but a scene-by-scene would be excellent! You should definitely do it.
Hell yeah man, break it down. I like your perspective on things. Subscribed.
Can you talk about avatar the last air bender and/or legend of Korra
do a scene by scene!
SO glad I found this channel.
A scene by scene would be great! This is easily one of my favourite movies in a long time
I disagree on something, you don't really need to watch the first one, this movie stands on it's own so well that it can do that
2049 is more plot driven and less of a mood piece. But while I really enjoyed it I disagree with the video, the original has an incredible amount of ideas and emotion in it too. It isn't one note at all.
I doubt OP actually understood the original. While the visuals are a large part of the appeal of it, philosophy is another huge aspect of it. It posits man by creating replicants, fully self-aware beings, aspiring to godhood. It confronts the viewer with the question of whether replicants by virtue of their self-awareness should be afforded human dignity and right-of-life. And perhaps most importantly of all, it contrasts Deckard, a human, who kills other self-aware beings with Roy, a replicant, who despite having ample reason to kill Deckard decides to save his life even as he's dying.
It is by virtue of these rich themes and their reinforcement by the aesthetics that Blade Runner was such an incredible film, and continuous to be admired today, despite its simplistic plot. The new film is in many ways the opposite. There is no longer any philosophical musings on what replicants mean to the concept of humanity (except if you count the plot point of a replicant having had a child, which I don't because the film is always in a hurry to move on with the plot whenever it comes up, never stopping to elaborate). Instead it's a plot twist thriller more than a noir, and is fine enough at what it does. But in terms of greatness I think it's far behind the original.
Dude was clearly sick recording this lol, can tell in his voice
This is why i I love your videos
Please do scene by scene
You’re right is not fury road it’s better.
Funny enough: when saw you "in the box" my first thought was: "Sith lord Marcus" and then you said about the upcoming SW video.
Also: thank you for a recommendation. Will do my best to watch both parts over this long weekend.
Also-also: Thank you for answering the age old movie question: "What's in THE BOX?!" Now we know it's your head :P
DO A SCENE BY SCENE please. I love this movie so much. Just as good as the original in my opinion, just love the way it was filmed/colors and framing. Good stuff. Love your content! A favorite you are, thank you!
It’s The Godfather Part II of the sci-fi genre. Stands on its own, but perfectly compliments the original. One of my favorite movies of all time.
PS watch it on shrooms. Unreal experience.
drmuffin1080 YES!! Love watching it after smoking a bowl. Such a perfect film.
This is probably the closest thing to a cinematic masterpiece that Hollywood has ever produced.
I just saw this movie for the fourth time like a month ago, and now I desperately need to go watch it again.
Two years later and I'm still thinking about this movie.
