| Turkish said: Makes sense, the mainstream just isn't into the cyber punk jizz going on in geek circles. Of all the 80s/90s nostalgia jizz going on right now, cyber punk is just a niche. Using a cult classic name that was never really popular outside said nerd circles wasn't gonna help it either.
And yeah, remakes/sequels/reboots are dumb, Hollywood needs more originality. Where are all the new IPs that people decades from now want to reboot, when so much is just rehashed ideas right now. |
Please refrain from making comments like this one without seeing the movie. Blade Runner 2049 is anything but a cash-grab. It's a movie in its own right, just set in the Blade Runner universe. Considered one of the best movies of the year and genre-redefining by me and many others.
Criticizing this movie as another remake/sequel/whatever as an attempt at making money is an insult not only to the movie but to film-making in general.
