It’s a salute to originality this week as we get a sequel, a book adaptation, and an adaptation of a cartoon that was based on a toy line.<\/p>\nIt’s a salute to originality this week as we get a sequel, a book adaptation, and an adaptation of a cartoon that was based on a toy line.<\/p>\n
But then the reviews started coming in, and they were strongly positive. Some also said that it was even better than the original. That’s not what you’d expect from what appeared to be a cash-grab sequel. Now, my interest is piqued.<\/p>\n If you want to know what FBOL Head Honcho thought of the movie, or just want to be entertained by the way he works around the restrictions on what he could write in the review, you can read his take HERE<\/a>.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"http:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/New-Releases-Blade-Runner-2049-poster-220x339.jpg\")
1. Blade Runner 2049 (Warner Brothers, 4,058 Theaters, 163 Minutes,\u00a0Rated R for violence, some sexuality, nudity and language, Rotten Tomatoes Tomatometer at press time: 88% Fre<\/a>sh [202 reviews]): <\/strong>I can’t say that I was high on this sequel. The original\u00a0Blade Runner<\/strong>, was a classic, with a nice, ambiguous ending that didn’t need to be followed up on. And I’ve seen sequels where Harrison Ford revisited his famous past works and that’s not as big of a draw that he thinks it is.<\/p>\n
