Blade Runner 2049 - Overthoughts

The gents chatted all about the original Blade Runner last week, and now that BR2049 is out in theaters, they sat down and went as in-depth as only they can and talked all about the story, the themes, the cinematography, the score, and just about anything else you can think of about this fascinating new film.  

They start off comparing 2049 to the original Blade Runner, then play a new game called "Why'd They Do That?" (25:30), talk about the look and style of the film as well as the genius of Roger Deakins (44:30, as well as getting into the score of the film (53:30).  

Give it a listen and let us know what you think by giving us a quick review on iTunes!
