Episode description

And...we're back!  Sorry for the unexpected hiatus, but a couple of co-hosts were out of town on a vacation.  This week, we are back on track with a review of the 1982 sci-fi classic film, "Blade Runner."

Does this film stand the test of time?  How well do its story, characters, and dialogue stack up against its impressive visuals?  Are its visuals good enough to make up for any other shortcomings?  Is this movie more about Harrison Ford's character, or is it really more about the replicants he's hunting?  Are there mixed opinions about the chemistry between Harrison Ford and Sean Young's characters?  And, what exactly is a Blade Runner anyway?  Listen now to find out the answers to these and other burning questions.

To be honest, this is the episode of going off on tangents.  So, as a bonus, you get a mini-discussion about "Cowboys vs. Aliens," and one co-host reveals a "hot take" about a predominantly beloved Data-centric episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation.  This episode also sees the return of the If-This-Movie-Were-A-Chipotle-Burrito-Bowl analogy.  There are also brief mentions of bread, sandwiches, and pasta, so we apologize if this review makes you hungry for carbs.

Grab your jacket, gun, and Voight-Kampff machine as we investigate and chase down...Blade Runner.
