    1. I can still clearly sense how absolutely blown away I was for the TV ad for this, and, subsequently, the movie… Still kinda unmatched.

      I don’t know about you guys , but I’m ready for our corporate overlords to build behemoth ziggurats like this

    3. Saw BR opening weekend – was absolutely changed by the scenery and Vangelis soundtrack – film noir at its finest ever – absolutely stunning for the date it was released

      Ahh, reminds me of the *Video Toaster* promo video.

      We had one in my high school AV room and I spent hours and hours trying to get it to do anything other than really cool wipes or corny text to scroll across the screen.

      Obligatory [Toaster](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=XDXv-wq3uDY) promo video.

      This one is from 1991, and at the 9 minute mark is a sweet zoom out with the blade runner building modeled on the toaster and the ad blimp for some cheeky flare.

      This is a locked in memory for me.

      That version of Los Angeles might’ve been a dystopian hellscape, but you know damn well it at least had a train going all the way to LAX.
