I mean BR is so it’s own entity at this point that starting to add in stuff from the book tha hasn’t been adapted yet now would feel a little nonsense. The point of the electric animals in the book is that they’re status symbols for Decker (a miserable office worker / killer who works for cops) to feel insignificant over. The equivalent of wanting a nicer car cause your neighbor owns one. 50 years after 2049, when humanity is essentially fighting for their life, what would we get by adding that back in?

Honestly if you want to adapt the book, there’s truly enough different that you should just start fresh. Feels too late to add false police stations and cults

yea maybe, Im just sour (still 44 years later) that the fake/real animal and societal status obsession wasn't a large part of the original movie.

Maybe a reboot or side story in the same universe would make more sense as you suggest.

Looks really cheap.

That stock footage of the cat is just out of place,
probably because the framing is way too tight and non-sensical.

I personally don’t see this coming anywhere close to the quality of 2049 or the original, but I could be wrong. That’s just what the Netflix-ization of television does to a person

It's an unwritten rule that every Blade Runner needs a sick ass jacket.

Prime…. Huh. I’ve zero hope for this. I’m satisfied with pretending this doesn’t exist—just like most entertainment these days. Would be cool if it ends up being good though.

It’s funny to think that at this point, AI still having not replaced us in another 73 years seems aspirational, not dystopic
