Bladerunner 2049: Spoiler Alert

[SalsMasterShake]

Forgive me if this is a duplicate thread (feel free to delete/move it if it is), but my son and I just got around to seeing Bladerunner 2049 this past weekend.

I thought of @LaReineBlanche ’s comments about Alien: Covenant: the cinematography was awesome, the atmosphere was great, but the movie itself was just OK...

I mean I liked the new Bladerunner, but it certainly wasn’t better than the first.

The premise of the Bladerunner 2049 bothered me: a replicant engineered to give birth? C’mon...

Then we have the trope of the downtrodden rallying around their messiah (yeah, we’ve never seen that before). If a 3rd movie gets green lit, I’m sure it’ll just be a rehash of Conquest of the Planet of the Apes with the apes being replaced by replicants.

I'll get around to seeing this someday. It didn't really call to me from the trailers

They had it in one of the smaller theaters in my multiplex, but it was surprisingly full...

I imagine that it’ll be out on BRD (do they even do that anymore?) in time for Christmas. It’s such an upbeat tale...

I felt the same way. Nothing about any of the trailers grabbed me enough to venture out to a theater to see it.
