    Sorry, boys...but I think I'll take a pass.

    I'd like to think I learned something from the twin fiascos of the Star Wars prequels, and George Romero's career since 2005.

    Actually...didn't the original Replicants have some kind of glowing contacts in their eyes in a couple of shots in the original film?

    I'd prefer they leave Blade Runner alone and reboot with a fresh adaptation of Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep.

    ^^^

    Regarding their eyes - that was a key to seeing who was a replicant, their eyes had a glow to them (in the iris) in certain lighting conditions. Harrison Ford even has that glow in his eyes at one point (as Scott intended - he spoke about that, and Deckard being a replicant, in a special feature on the super-duper release a few years back).

    Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives.

    "Blade Runner sequel is no rumour - it's happening," according to Ridley Scott!

    t’s not a rumour – it’s happening. With Harrison Ford? I don’t know yet. Is he too old? Well, he was a Nexus-6 so we don’t know how long he can live [laughs]. And that’s all I’m going to say at this stage.

    I dug Prometheus - so I'm into this idea too.

    Also, further confirmation from Scott himself that Deckard was a Replicant (a theory I too, subscribe to).

    Ridley should looking into getting Trent Reznor to make the soundtrack. This is the kind of sound a new Blade Runner should have:

    More talk about Ford returning - http://www.aintitcool.com/node/64541

    Yeah, we’ve been chatting about it…I truly admire Ridley as a man and as a director, and I would be very happy to engage again with him in the further telling of this story.

    So then what about Ridley Scott being adamant that Deckard was a replicant?

    Might it be that he still is, but discovered a way to stop the countdown for all replicants? Might that have something to do with the plot? Just a wild theory.

    Or maybe it'll be a contrived, somewhat lack lustre, effort like Promestheus?

    ^^ Should have been... But I found parts of it daft TBH. It wasn't a bad flick, but not as good as the sum of its parts!
