David Marshall shit like that happens all the time, I'm just confused as to why people choose to to adore and admire him so much. I've just never seen this happen before and I'm confused. His acting his pretty good, but nothing special.
Even Jared Leto was not in the movie that much, i now get why they made these prequel short movies that mainly focused on Leto's and Dave Batista's characters
Dave Bautista’s acting this short film is better than every film The Rock (Dwayne Johnson) made. *SPOILER WARNING* It’s sad that defending the young girl and her mother ended up getting Sapper Morton killed. If he never saved them, Officer K (masterfully played by Ryan Gosling) would’ve never found him and killed him. What seems to kill replicants is humanity. And what I mean by that is once Replicants start exhibiting human emotions and feelings it’s essentially their downfall. Roy Batty and his gang from the original Blade Runner began to feel arguably the strongest human emotion aside from love, the fear of death. And that causes Leon and Priss to be killed. Sapper Morton felt empathy and compassion which caused him to show up on Officer K’s radar, which got him killed. And Officer K began to view himself as not a thing, but as something alive; and felt love for his holographic girlfriend Joi. With these emotions and feelings he developed, he chose to sacrifice himself to save Deckard and reunite him with his daughter. When replicants begin to feel, they sign their death certificate.
wood chucker would you be surprised? What makes people human is their imperfection. That's why the terms "to err is human" and "making mistakes are what makes us human" exists.
Slapping And Clapping Well, the humans in focus in Bladerunner are pretty human in terms. Wallace and Tyrell are both humans that has a god-like complex because humans long to be god. Deckard's humanity is what causes him to save Rachel and J.F. Sebastian's humanity is what causes him to take in Pris to his home and show her shelter. I mean, most of the Nexus 6 Replicants in the first movie, while showing human-like qualities still fall prey to their artificial human nature.
These aren't the ladies you're looking for. Spoiler here as well. This mother and daughter are friends of Sapper Morton. The duo that's the reason for involving Agent K is Rachel (who died in child birth) and said child.
@@Fuchsia_tude Well the whole point of Sapper's character is that despite being a kill bot he has an extremely kind nature that hinders his ability hide his strength and blend in with society.
He said he practically cried like a baby when he got cast as Drax the Destroyer in Guardians of the Galaxy. And then he dug in, studying on acting as well as the character's story. He takes the work very seriously, no matter the role.
His role in blade runner was barely five minutes though, I wish he'd had a bigger role like Rutger hauer did in the original. Other than that I really enjoyed the film.
Overall I think the movie was quite enjoyable, my one criticism is that Dave Bautista had such a relatively small role. I sure wouldve loved a lot more of sapper Morton. If one day there is a sequel, he could come back as a clone of his replicant self in this film.
Happens in movies a lot. I remember watching the remake of Halloween and every guy in the film being an asshole and fucking with Mike Myers, who absolutely towers over everybody.

The fact that THIS is how he gets caught is... Insane.... This adds a whole new layer of complexity while just reinforcing the themes of the movie, i didn't expect this short to complement the movie this well, is so good wtf
There aren't many actors out there with the range of Dave Bautista right now. He's so unbelievably natural. He understands the concept of "Don't act like a character; be a character."
The movie isn't even out yet and the characterization for Jared Leto and Bautista's characters are already looking great....This movie is gonna be way too good lol
Early reviews are coming out and theyve said its an almost 3 hour gritty crime drama, which has me so excited. Getting Denis was the best idea. I could only imagine what this movie would have been like if they tried to make it a blockbuster.
love how those tiny glasses make him look so much bigger/imposing than he already is lol (while also giving off gentle nerd vibes somehow? great wardrobe choice)
Bautista's small scene in the movie was so immense. Not only is he doing a one on one scene with a lifelong actor and holding his own, he actual steals the scene the hardest way possible--through pure emotional gravitas. It was immediately impressive to watch. I seriously put it up there with that Christoph Waltz scene that's so impressive in Inglorious Basterds
Excellent film, Blade Runner 2049. It deserves more than what it received. Unfortunately we are seeing a new cult film being born again. A really great film that doesn't make money.
In a weird way, Im sort of glad the main stream norms of dubious minds dont get this film. Something for a small group of thinkers. Biff and Muffy are not worthy.

You missed 3 books, Blade Runner 2: Edge of Human, Blade Runner 3: Replicant Night, Blade Runner 4: Eye of Talon. All of these including the films are based on the book "Do Androids Dream Electronic Sheep?". Just because you don't like reading doesn't mean they aren't apart of the continuity.

Just watched the movie last night and came back to rewatch this. Bautista is so good as this character. He's only in a small portion of the film, but he left such a big impact. Sapper seems like a tough guy, but one who would really prefer a life of peace. A gentle giant.
These shorts are by Luke Scott, director of the Alien Covenant shorts, and Morgan. But, yeah, the actual film itself looks amazing as well. Denis is a God among filmmakers. Hopefully he does get the nod for it.
I love the warmth in his voice, when he talks to the little girl. You can just hear the love. You can tell Dave spent time thinking about how the character would talk to that girl, and what it said about him (the character). Awesome job.

Truly one of the best wrestlers turned actor. A natural. Doesnt have a big resume of films, but has worked with well accomplished-award winning directors. Yet, can play the 2nd or 3rd lead of a film without stealing the spotlight, but rather capturing the audience with his characters performance.
😲 Fr!? Dave Bautista is a freaking revelation! A thespian who showed range in acting. He commands the screen no matter how minute his appearance, so strong yet so vulnerable. It's not farfetched, DB is a future Oscar Winner!
Blade Runner came out four years before I was born yet I've watched it almost twenty times now. Literally my favorite movie ever. BR spawned my favorite genre, dystopian sci fi noir. 2049 better not disappoint.
No he didn't. It doesn't work well there and it works brilliantly. The movie didn't lack anything as everything that was put there was needed was there for a reason for it's slow paced and cold atmosphere. We don't need shots of the ground of the people's daily life as that's not what the movie is about and Bausitia's character was not at all a needed more than he should have as his character served his role perfectly in film as he needed to be for those few minutes, this shouldn't be difficult to understand. Not every character can be fleshed out throughout film as each one serves a purpose.
It's really fantastic seeing Dave Bautista becoming a great actor and being in awesome material. Smart dresser, and moreover, beneath the exterior, he seems like a real genuine and humble man, which adds a tremendous amount of appeal .
How this didnt make it into the final film I'll never know. Fantastic 5 mins that give a small but valuable back story to his character. Love the film but this would have been the perfect intro in my opinion.
When I saw David Bautista first connected to this movie I thought his role will be similar to Brion James role in the original Blade Runner but this clip looks like it won't. Great scene.
I would watch a series of Action/Suspense movies starring Dave Bautista, the man has surely learned how to command presence on camera without making him look menacing, or overly aggressive.
Glad I didn't know about this short until after I watched 2049 a bunch of times. Knowing that this is how Sapper was ID'd after understanding the aftermath this caused, means more to me
Dave Bautista is a great dramatic actor and should be in demand by many more directors. This guy has a lot of potential, and his participation in the short film "blade runner 2048" is brilliant. His 10 minutes on screen in blade runner 2049 are even more brilliant!!!. He must be able to play in many other films.... I hope his talent will one day be recognized for its true worth.
I keep coming back to this. Dave has always been one of my favorite wrestlers. He actually has great acting chops when he's given more to do with a character.
Just wanna reiterate what everyone's saying. Dave Bautista's acting is top-class here. The guy's clearly been taking his studies seriously.

Looking forward to seeing Dave in Dune. He's wonderful in this.

How this didnt make it into the final film I'll never know. Fantastic 5 mins that give a small but valuable back story to his character. Love the film but this would have been the perfect intro in my opinion.
Bautista looks like Virgil from Fallout lol
When I saw David Bautista first connected to this movie I thought his role will be similar to Brion James role in the original Blade Runner but this clip looks like it won't. Great scene.
I would watch a series of Action/Suspense movies starring Dave Bautista, the man has surely learned how to command presence on camera without making him look menacing, or overly aggressive.
I love Dave Bautista on serious role, so good!
All 3 of these shorts compliment the movie perfectly, loved them all
that is some crazy good acting. even managed to capture the look that leon had in his eyes during the VK test. Looking forward to this movie.
I am SO heartbroken over Sapper Morton :'((((
@yagbos thanks for sharing mate.
Glad to see Pay Phones made a comeback in the future. I miss those damn things.
I'd totally watch a whole movie of this guy
Glad I didn't know about this short until after I watched 2049 a bunch of times. Knowing that this is how Sapper was ID'd after understanding the aftermath this caused, means more to me
In the words of Chris Tucker & Ice Cube: DAYYYYYYYYYYUUUUUUUUUUUMMMMM
Now THAT WAS DAMN STUNNING...
Bravo!

Peter Jensen whoa dude now why is he in this?!
I know he's a huge fan of blade runner but how did he get into this?
He has connections throughout Hollywood so probably pulled some strings.
As part of Tested.com he went behind the scenes on the actual movie, and got a hookup through Tony to be in this.
He talks about it in his podcast from 9/26/17! Supercool!
Dave Bautista is a great dramatic actor and should be in demand by many more directors. This guy has a lot of potential, and his participation in the short film "blade runner 2048" is brilliant. His 10 minutes on screen in blade runner 2049 are even more brilliant!!!. He must be able to play in many other films.... I hope his talent will one day be recognized for its true worth.
This world was never worthy of a movie as glorious as Blade Runner and Blade Runner 2049.
He needs more roles, he's a good actor
Batista is becoming a great actor! He wowed me in this short!
Me too, Dave Batista is fantastic in this
wish the film had ONE marketplace scene like this!
l buy my vegetables in the marketplace. l always make a scene.
...dial Quit trying to be a vegan.
A veggie-heavy diet can't hurt.
Sounds like somebody’s upset his mommy sent him to bed early cuz he didn’t eat all his broccoli.
This is it. filmed in conjunction with the main film. Will be in the extended footage and bonus material in the DVD.
i want a full feature of this. Bautista is wonderful in every second of it.
You can tell the man put in the work.
And work, he did.
This should of been the Original opening of the new Movie.
Such an awesome short. I just need more from this universe.
I'm so happy
I keep coming back to this. Dave has always been one of my favorite wrestlers. He actually has great acting chops when he's given more to do with a character.
Sapper deserves his own movie
So that's how they found him!?
Yes.
really didn't think I would be into this movie but after watching this now I have to see it
This guy was made to be an action movie star!
Dave’s performance in blade runner is by far his best performance yet, it’s such a shame we didn’t get to see more of this character.
The way this played into the main feature was just so, so solid. And Dave Bautista is ace. Totally ace.
