This is Renegade Files Episode 61, Artificial Intelligence: The History, Ethics, and Future of AI. When I was a kid the promise of the future was beautiful, exciting, and, well, futuristic. We rode the Monorail at Disney and were told that in the future, everyone would travel on those incredibly smooth, electromagnetic hovering trains. We'd all have flying bubble cars like the Jetsons, sleek robots would clean our homes and cook our meals, and hoverboards were just around the corner. The Tyrell Corporation would sell us genetically engineered humanoid replicant girlfriends, and rebel pilots could explore the star systems of exotic worlds. But the monorail never left Disney World. When hoverboards came out, they had wheels. Flying cars and our pleasure model replicants resided firmly imprisoned within our TV, Computer, and Phone Screens. The disappointment that resulted generated a negative creative response and we got an overdose of dystopian sci-fi, zombie movies, cataclysmic disaster predictions, and suddenly, the future was far less bright.  In short, we never got the future we were promised. But then, a glimmer of futuristic hope.

This week, we're taking a look at Ridley Scott's groundbreaking, visually striking 1982 movie, Blade Runner. It tells the story of a retired cop, Rick Deckerd, who happens to be a former BLADE RUNNER, a specially trained breed of cop whose sole duty is to hunt down “replicants”, artificial beings created for hard labor off-world. Replicants are not allowed back on their home planet under pain of death, and that's where Deckerd comes in, he's pulled out of retirement for the purpose of hunting down 4 of these escaped replicants who have returned to Earth to question their creator, Elden Tyrell. While investigating the Tyrell Corporation, Deckerd learns that there is a 5th replicant on Earth, Tyrell's assistant, Rachel, however, she is unaware that she is a replicant because she has been implanted with the memories of Tyrell's niece. Now Deckerd not only has the problem of hunting down the original 4 replicants, he seems to be developing feelings for Rachel who, herself, isn't human. What did we think of this neo-noir/cyber-punk/sci-fi classic? Listen in to the conversation and find out!

While hunting four dangerous renegade 'bots, Deckard begins questioning his own humanity, and whether or not he's truly serving justice.In this retrospective review, Ian and David look at what makes Blade Runner different from the sci-fi movies that preceded it; unravel memories (both real and false) from the various cuts; and try to figure out how the film's notoriously "problematic" scene survived all of the edits over 42 years.Plus: They talk about seeing the movie at Chicago's famed Auditorium Theatre with live instruments and vocals!Subscribe, like, and comment to the Kicking the Seat YouTube channel, and check out kickseat.com for multiple movie podcasts each week!Show LinksWatch the Blade Runner (1982) trailer.Learn more about the Chicago Philharmonic's "Auditorium Philms" series, and get tickets for their amazing 2024 lineup!Follow David Fowlie's film criticism at Keeping It Reel.

Welcome to the Season 2 opener of Fabulous Film and Friends where this week we will be throwing down with a Battle of the Blade Runners , as we compare Ridley Scott's 1982 sci fi giant Blade Runner starring Harrison Ford, Rutger Hauer, Sean Young, Darryl Hannah, William Sanderson, M. Emmet Walsh, Joanna Cassidy, Edward James Olmos, Brion James, Joe Turkel and James Hong with Denise Villenueve's 2017 follow-up: Blade Runner 2049, starring Ryan Gosling, Harrison Ford, Ana De Armas, Jared Leto,  Sylvia Hoeks, Robin Wright, , Mackenzie Davis, Dave Bautista, Edward James Olmos and Sean Young.   Joining me are the two helped launch this podcast one year ago, Roseanne Caputi and Dave Johnson, DDS.  Set in a once futuristic, but now alternate 2019 Los Angeles megalopolis, Blade Runner centers around Rick Deckard, a Sam Spade-style, world weary ex-LAPD officer from a unit known as Blade Runners, who is pulled out of retirement to hunt down five artificial humans known as replicants.  Replicants are illegal on earth and used as slave labor in space exploration and colonization and five top of the line, Nexus 6 replicant outlaws led by super soldier Roy Batty, come back to earth in an attempt to extend their life span, which is limited to four years.  Aiding Deckard in his pursuit of the fugitives is the alluring Rachel, executive secretary to Dr. Eldon Tyrell whose corporation manufactures replicants. Upon meeting Rachel and administering a device on her known as Voight-Kampf, an empathy test used to detect replicants, Deckard learns that Rachel herself is a replicant, and while cold to her initially, Deckard ends up falling in love with her.  After Deckard confronts and kills three of the wanted replicants, -- with Rachel's help—he is pummeled and beaten by Batty and nearly left for dead until Batty has a change of heart and saves Deckard from a precipitous fall off a towering building. Battered and bruised, Deckard learns the true meaning of empathy and he reunites with Rachel. The pair escape Los Angeles and go into hiding, unsure of how long they have together.  Set 30 years later --after a great famine and information blackout, as well as a buyout of the Tyrell Corporation by a blind tech giant/savior named Niander Wallace, Blade Runner 2049 follows Blade Runner Agent K, who after a seemingly routine run-in with an erratic old style Nexus 8 replicant named Sapper Morton, discovers a link to events of the past that could change life on earth as they know it: the buried remains of the Replicant Rachel, who died  after giving birth to her and Rick Deckard's child. With that discovery, Agent K, a new-style tamed replicant himself known as “Joe” to his AI girlfriend Joi, embarks on a journey to find the identity and truth of Rachel and Deckard's human/replicant hybrid offspring, believing himself to be that very child that will start a revolution. This quest will lead K not only to Deckard but to a face-to-face confrontation with himself and his place in the universe. Who is the winner?

Blade Runner is one of the most exceptional and influential works of science fiction to ever grace the silver screen.  It brought the works of Phillip K Dick to life from its opening shots of geysers of flame erupting in the shadow of the Tyrell Corporation's Egyptian skyscrapers.  The technology might be fantastical and the world transformed, but the people of the city were the same, and Blade Runner knows it.  To this day it is considered one of the best explorations and examinations of humanity, even if its slow pacing and flat characters might be off putting for some.15 years after the release of the movie saw the release of the point and click adventure game of the same name.  Blade Runner (1997) follows the journey of Ray Mcoy in a parallel side story to Deckard, as he investigates bombings, hunts down replicants, and otherwise gets tangled up in something far beyond his simple job.  It was released to widespread critical acclaim, with reviewers both praising both its detailed environments and dynamic gameplay.But 25 years later, point and click adventure games are a dead artform, cursed and largely forgotten.  Blade Runner itself got a shot in the arm with its sequel, and for many that's the only exposure they have to this world.  Is it possible, all these years later, that this game could possibly still hold up today?On this episode, we discuss:How well does Blade Runner capture the atmosphere of the movie?  In what way does it use sound, audio and animation to convert high resolution film to a low resolution, voxel based video game?Blade Runner's story is extremely dynamic, with clues, identities and even entire scenes playing out completely differently for each playthrough.  Does this come across as confusing and incoherent, or is this a brilliant type of storytelling that should never have been retired?Blade Runner is a point and click adventure game that barely features puzzles.  Does stripping this feature fix what makes this genre rotten to the core, or has it been replaced with something far worse?We answer these questions and many more on the 93rd episode of the Retro Spectives Podcast!—Intro Music: KieLoBot - Tanzen KOutro Music: Rockit Maxx - One point to anotherBlade Runner OST: Frank Klepacki—Which piece of Blade Runner media do you think is best - the book, one of the first movie cuts, or the sequel?  Is the gameplay of Blade Runner more sophisticated and clever than we gave it credit for?  Is there another modern game that uses the systems present here?  Come let us know what you think and join the conversation on our community discord server!

Tread Perilously keeps yet another promise by finally watching Small Wonder, but will an episode called "The Suitor" change Erik or Justin's opinion of the series? When Jamie's nerdy classmate, Warren, catches sight of Vicki, he's immediately smitten. And thanks to Jamie's primer on mushy romance, she reciprocates -- or at least as much as an emotionless "child identicant" can. Will Jamie be able to program her with a tactful way to let Warren down or will the nerdy kid end up in tears? Also, will anyone punish Jamie for his behavior and racially insensitive impressions? Erik and Justin enter the heart of darkness with one of the worst sitcoms ever recorded. They go over the premise -- both the one cited by the show itself and the one Justin sees buried just underneath. Gambling, the Tyrell Corporation, and Pakistan become important. Justin offers a few thoughts on Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings. A surprising examination of Regan Era media and culture breaks out. Erik has a hard time believing actor Dick Christie was a nerd in high school. Denis Villeneuve gets compared to Ridley Scott and Justin learns whether or not he must endure an episode of 7th Heaven next week.

In this episode Mark talks about one of his favourite films: the 1982 science fiction film "Blade Runner", directed by Ridley Scott and written by Hampton Fancier and David Peoples, based upon the 1968 novel "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?" by Philip K. Dick. The film is set in a dystopian version of 2019, in which synthetic humans known as "replicants" are bio-engineered by the powerful Tyrell Corporation to work on off-world space colonies - however, when a fugitive group of advanced replicants flee to Earth to hide, Rick Deckard (played by Harrison Ford) is tasked to track down and eliminate the group, led by Roy Batty (played by Rutger Hauer). The film explores themes such as identity, slavery, artificial intelligence, and where the path towards creating advanced machines who look and act human may eventually lead. "Blade Runner" has been culturally as well aesthetically influential since is initial release and it continues to draw audiences back to it because of the deeply profound possibilities that it proposes and investigates in regards to humanities burgeoning relationship with artificial life. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/markthepoet/message

"Blade Runner" opened in theaters in 1982. Director Ridley Scott creates a cityscape of Los Angeles in 2019. The film has many aspects of film noir blended into a future where synthetic humans or replicants are produced to work on planets, asteroids and other objects scattered throughout space. These replicants are prohibited from being on Earth. When four Nexus-6 replicants escape back to Earth, Rick Deckard played by Harrison Ford is persuaded to hunt them. Deckard is a former police officer and now a "Blade Runner" who is authorized to eliminate or "retire" the four fugitives. The four replicants are Roy Batty the leader played by Rutger Hauer, Pris - Daryl Hannah, Leon Kowalski - Brion James and Zhora Salome - Joanna Cassidy. Sean Young plays Rachael an employee of the Tyrell Corporation makers of replicants. Deckard and Rachael form a bond that is a key part of the film. As a part of our April 11 and 12, 2020 virtual film festival we watched the final cut of the film that is, in our opinion, the best of the seven versions of "Blade Runner". Enjoy this exciting film.

We return with a highly esoteric discussion on Blade Runner 2049, the 2017 sequel to Ridley Scott's cult-classic from 1982. Despite not doing well at the Box Office, this film succeeds in artfully suggesting a number of stories within one, and like the first film, leaves the audience feeling they have witnessed something profound.  Set in the titular year in dystopian Los Angeles, the film follows the replicant LAPD officer 'K' as he uncovers hidden evidence that replicants are capable of reproducing autonomously. After being ordered by his superiors to investigate and destroy the evidence, K is led to believe that he himself may be the offspring of a union between replicants, and so disobeys his orders in search of his origins.  We start by summarising the plot and the story, before diving into the multi-layered elements of the film, looking at the heavy use of biblical motifs and creation mythologies in both the script and the subtext. As humanity has fallen from grace in foolishly pursuing godhood, the next epoch of creation is born, and so the film is replete with wordplay and symbolic motifs which elucidate these ideas.  We discuss the film's focus on feminine imagery, especially following the many negative reviews given by feminist critics. We deconstruct the notion that the film is overtly sexist and gratuitous in its imagery, by pointing out the deeper symbolic significance in these motifs. The film is both critiquing the objectification of women whilst also celebrating the goddess archetype and venerating the full range of feminine principles.  We also spend time talking about the various characters, in terms of what they represent and how they develop throughout the story. The ultimate journey of K in particular is heavily suggestive of Gnostic principles and ideas, though we also touch on the characters of LUV and JOI, who at various points reveal a higher truth or meaning to his journey into selfhood.   We touch on a myriad of other topics in this extended podcast, from Silicon Valley execs and the transhumanist demiurge Niander Wallace, to questions of humanity, to the artful cinematography and soundtrack of the film, plus much more. Please excuse the low audio quality.  Topics discussed include: Blade Runner, Los Angeles, Dystopia, Environmentalism, Synthetic Foods, Synthetic Society, Replicants, Artificial Intelligence, Original Film, Sequels, Artful production, Ryan Gosling, Harrison Ford, Jared Leto, JOI, LUV, Niander Wallace, Wallace Corporation, Tyrell Corporation, LAPD, DNA, Regeneration, Reproduction, Miracles, Biblical Themes, Adam & Eve, Garden of Eden, Genesis, Creation, Gnosticism, Pyramids, Pharaohs, Godhood, Demigod, Demiurge, Light, Symbolism, Geometry, Human Eye, Feminist Critiques, Goddess Archetypes, Sexuality, Objectification, Veneration, Slavery, Oppression, Self Awareness, Las Vegas, Holograms, Earth Mother Archetype, Masculine vs Feminism, Search for Truth, Materialism, Infertility, Revolution, Wordplay, Secret Societies, Sacrifice, Truth, Love vs Joy, Techniques of Cinema and Sound, Quality of film and music.  Intro & Outro music by Hans Zimmer.

Al final, ciego de ira ante la muerte de sus compañeros, Roy persigue a Deckard, lo arrincona, y cuando lo tiene a su merced… abandona todo deseo de venganza. La muerte se aproxima, y el replicante lo sabe. Lo siente. Y se despide de la existencia con uno de los párrafos más memorables de la historia del cine: "Yo he visto cosas que vosotros no creeríais.

Let us rewind once again! The year we’re going back to is 1982 – the year that Harrison Ford wasn’t doing a Star Wars or Indiana Jones movie – Blade Runner. In anticipation of the upcoming sequel Blade Runner 2049, Jason and Rob rewind to bring us a review of the Ridley Scott’s neo-noir, science fiction film. But which version you ask? Blade Runner: The Final Cut. In a slightly dystopian 2019 Los Angeles, ex-police officer Rick Deckard (Harrison Ford) is forced to return to his old job as a “Blade Runner” – His assignment: eliminate four escaped bioengineered Replicants. Deckard goes to the Tyrell Corporation where he meets Rachel (Sean Young), a Replicant girl he develops feelings for – challenging his previous views on the humanity of Replicants. In the cinematic feature that has garnered itself a cult following, we dig deep in exploring the many levels of themes (it's our most analytical podcast yet), the special effects, and standout scenes. We ask the important questions; What do the eyes mean? What’s the deal with the unicorn? And is Deckard a Replicant!? Sit back and enjoy our second episode of Rewind & Review.

Estos robots trabajaban como esclavos en las colonias exteriores de la Tierra. Después de la sangrienta rebelión de un equipo de Nexus-6, los Replicantes fueron desterrados de la Tierra. Brigadas especiales de policía, los Blade Runners, tenían órdenes de matar a todos los que no hubieran acatado la condena. Pero a esto no se le llamaba ejecución, se le llamaba "retiro".

This week, Zach travels to the future to see if androids dream of electric sheep, or if the dystopian future is just around the corner as he explores Ridley Scott's 1982 film, Blade Runner. BLADE RUNNER Blade Runner is a 1982 American dystopian science fiction thriller film directed by Ridley Scott and starring Harrison Ford, Rutger Hauer, Sean Young and Edward James Olmos. The screenplay, written by Hampton Fancher and David Peoples, is loosely based on the novel Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? by Philip K. Dick. The film depicts a dystopian Los Angeles in November 2019 in which genetically engineered organic robots called replicants—visually indistinguishable from adult humans—are manufactured by the powerful Tyrell Corporation as well as by other "mega-corporations" around the world. Their use on Earth is banned and replicants are exclusively used for dangerous, menial or leisure work on off-world colonies. Replicants who defy the ban and return to Earth are hunted down and "retired" by police special operatives known as "Blade Runners". The plot focuses on a brutal and cunning group of recently escaped replicants hiding in Los Angeles and the burnt-out expert Blade Runner, Rick Deckard (Harrison Ford), who reluctantly agrees to take on one more assignment to hunt them down. Show your thanks to Major Spoilers for this episode by becoming a Major Spoilers VIP. It will help ensure Zach on Film continues far into the future! During the show, Zach mentions a video on Vimeo.com. Here it is. During the show, Stephen mentions the book, Future Noir. The 1992 release of the "Director's Cut" only confirmed what the international film cognoscenti have know all along: Ridley Scott's Blade Runner, based on Philip K. Dick's brilliant and troubling SF novel Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep, still rules as the most visually dense, thematically challenging, and influential SF film ever made. Future Noir is the story of that triumph. The making of Blade Runner was a seven-year odyssey that would test the stamina and the imagination of writers, producers, special effects wizards, and the most innovative art directors and set designers in the industry. A fascinating look at the ever-shifting interface between commerce and the art that is modern Hollywood, Future Noir is the intense, intimate, anything-but-glamerous inside account of how the work of SF's most uncompromising author was transformed into a critical sensation, a commercial success, and a cult classic.
