knowing Villeneuve's work, i doubt the finished product is as much of a chase + explosions deal as the trailers make it appear. if the action scenes are in line w/what he did in Sicario, he would be the correct choice. anyway this movie certainly *looks* incredible. the story, we'll see. Jared Leto can either be great or obnoxious, we'll see on that too.

I hope he leans on what works well and just recreates the night vision in a tunnel scene from Sicario

That is really bad teal and orange. They just put two monochrome schemes next to each other.

That short film prequel thing they released is not promising. Leto talks. Portentously. With weird. Annoying. Gaps in his speech. To show how. Meaningful it all. Is. Also his character hasn't changed haircuts in 15 years.

I'd like to know. And I'd really like to know how much Johannsen will remain in the movie/on the album and how much Hans Zimmer will have replaced it (was super excited to hear what the former would do for this movie as the Arrival score was just jaw-droppingly good to me)
― harbinger of failure (Jon not Jon), Friday, 8 September 2017 17:05 (six years ago) link
Wait hold on, I either missed the Zimmer news or intentionally blotted it from my brain so I didn't have to think about it. (Which I suppose is very Blade Runnerish, so.)
Anyway

he always comes off so gruffly matter-of-fact in interviews. can definitely picture him saying that.

Hell, Joe Turkel was amazing in the original, and he was just this understated dude.
― Ned Raggett, Monday, 18 September 2017 17:45 (six years ago) link
Genuinely think the Leto stuff has made me decide to not see this, despite/because of the original being one of my favourite films

He seems to be doing some kind of bad Shatner impression?

The fact that Hans Zimmer is now doing the music is...not inspiring.
― Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 19 September 2017 02:02 (six years ago) link
hugely disappointed they ditched Johann Johannsson, that more than anything I've seen in trailers signals this went off the rails and is going to suck.
― erry red flag (f. hazel), Tuesday, 19 September 2017 02:15 (six years ago) link
Yup The score could still be good depending on which Zimmer we get (the Beyond Rangoon/Interstellar zimmer I could see doing a cool blade runner score) but the disappointment of not hearing what JJ would have done is massive.

While promoting Suicide Squad, all the cast could talk about was how crazy Jared Leto had been on set, sending people anal beads, used condoms, dead rats, bullets, and an entire pig, as well as making everyone refer to him as 'Mr. J'. Preparing for Blade Runner 2049, Leto went full method actor again, apparently partially blinding himself by wearing sight-limiting contact lenses.βHe entered the room, and he could not see at all,β director Denis Villeneuve told the SWJ magazine in a profile piece about Leto. βHe was walking with an assistant, very slowly. It was like seeing Jesus walking into a temple. Everybody became super silent, and there was a kind of sacred moment. Everyone was in awe. It was so beautiful and powerful β I was moved to tears. And that was just a camera test!β

i think i've said it here before, but it's hilarious and slightly endearing that leto goes full-on method in support of delivering terrible performances

yeah, me too - the work of his i've seen so far (sicario and arrival) has ultimately been less than the sum of its parts, and somehow i think helming the unasked-for sequel to blade runner is not gonna be the project that tips him over into greatness
