Blade Runner - any fans

Released in 1982 and directed by Ridley Scott starring Harrison Ford. I am a huge fan of this movie and received the Ultimate Collector's Edition DVD box set last week for which I have been enjoying immensely. DVD box set includes the Final Cut version (2007), Directors Cut version, the original theatrical versions both domestic and international and the ultra-rare pre-release Workprint. A complete documentary on the making of the movie, extended interviews with Philip K. Dick (author of "Do Androids Dream Of Electric Sheep" which was the basis for the movie), the screen tests, all of the deleted scenes and much more. There's 5 DVDs worth of material here. Box set also includes a rare art folio, some toy figurines and a lenticular film clip all housed in a replica Deckard brief case.

Excellent packaging. A true fan's delight.

One of the few DVDs I own. I received the Directors Cut (single DVD) as a gift some years back. It's one of my favorites as well as the story "Do Androids Dream Of Electric Sheep."

Great movie. It seemed so futuristic in 1982... not so much, now. More prophetic.

I don't follow you.

Edit:

The original theatrical version has Deckard driving off in the sunset with Rachael in the end. It also included the Deckard overvoices. The Dirctors Cut version omitted the Deckard overvoices and the "happy" ending. This new DVD set includes a bunch of stuff y'all have never seen/heard including overvoices and more alternate endings. It's such a great package.

I have yet to watch the Final Cut version yet. I always loved the original theatrical version personally.

The beautiful auburn haired replicant that HF took off with at the end of the movie. An actress I do not recall seeing in any other role in any other movie.

Ooooooo yea! One of my Top 10 of all time and a sure Desert Island choice.

For Yamaha B-2 --- Sean Young was the replicant, and she's done lots of stuff, and most of it tabloid worthy ....

Oh, HF=Harrison Ford. Now I get it. Yes, as Scorpion mentioned, that was Sean Young playing the very beautiful Rachael. Man, she was a knock-out. There's deleted footage included in the box set with Deckard and her in quite a love making episode.

With my steady diet of 3-4 movies a year, not too surprising that I would miss her work.
