This information was in a pile of stuff that was waiting to be posted throughout the last week or so. Problem is: we've been having irritating server issues over the last week or so...and posting was frequently a challenge, if not impossible. So, sorry this is a tad late...but...it's not too late for most folks.

Merrick here...
With Darwin's take on BLADE RUNNER: FINAL CUT. You can read another perspective on the film HERE.
I can't believe they changed Roy's "I want more life, fucker" to "I want more life, father." The "fucker" says so much more...shows so much more simmering anger, etc. Maybe they were trying to soften him a little?

I'm dying to see this film, I'm really, really X infinity excited about it.
Andrew-Wan Kenobi got a look at it & sent this in over the weekend; though you might like a comprehensive rundown of what's been changed, and what remains the same.

Yahoo has posted four clips from the forthcoming BLADE RUNNER re-edit/face lift/partial re-edit/all-around cleaning.
Included in the selection are a preview of DANGEROUS DAYS, the newly commissioned mega-documentary chronicling the making of the film, quite a bit of the retooled Zhora street gundown (for which Joanna Cassidy recently re-shot new footage), "the Unicorn scene" (which, according to Ridley Scott, is one of the substantial clues that Ford's Deckard character is a Replicant...)

CBS has a 3-hour special tonight titled “AFI’s 100 Years/100 Movies.”
We have exclusive word that wedged between all those “Star Wars,” “Raiders,” “Godfather” and “Casablanca” clips will be a one-minute commercial touting a new DVD release. (We’re told it will ultimately be a new DVD/HD-DVD/Blu-ray release, if that’s any clue.)
This is a new DVD release for one of the most beloved sci-fi movie classics of all time. Its commercial contains newly-shot, never-before-seen footage. Every sofa in every parent’s basement in America should fear the potential deluge of geek urine, we are told.

Merrick here…
…with a supercool bit of news that should get Geeks going.
For a long while, we’ve been hearing about the forthcoming mega DVD of BLADE RUNNER. We’ve heard all kindsa stories about what material the set would contain (like multiple versions of the film, including a new edit that addresses continuity gaffs, FX inconsistencies, etc.) But, we hadn’t heard much about just how extensive this undertaking might be.

Harry here... I'm very edgy about anyone messing with BLADE RUNNER ever. I love the film. Specifically I love the original theatrical version. I loved Ford's dead to the world narration. I loved the style of the delivery just sounding exhausted

Hey folks, Harry here. I'm very curious to see the 'new cut' of BLADE RUNNER that Ridley is putting together that will be a part of some 'super' dvd next year... and actually doubly so for LEGEND, because LEGEND is one of those films that I always

Hey, everyone. "Moriarty" here. Just thought I'd bring something to your attention that the estimable Garth Franklin ran over on Dark Horizons this morning.
Seems Ridley Scott can't leave well enough alone. When BLADE RUNNER was released in 198

If I were in L.A. I'd be all over this so fast you'd have to drag me away kicking and screaming with some sort of major hauling device with six axles! If you live in L.A., live close, have a private jet.... get ye to this theater.... just listen to
