I prefer 2001. But both are great movies I rewatch regularly. I just rewatched 2001 last month

 

[TheNinja]

Blade Runner.

 

[I Fusion I]

Bump

 

[Natural Order]

2001 is on another level. Still the best piece of sci-fi ever put to film imo.

Blade Runner is upper echelon of that genre, fantastic movie all around.

Clarke > Dick

2001

 

[traditionally_irreverent]

Blade Runner is top tier.
Honestly can’t remember 2001 a Space Odyssey

 

[Satur9]

2001. Only SF films I put above it is Aliens and Solaris(Tarkovsky).

 

[Osculater]

I have to watch 2001

2001 is probably the "better" film, but I definitely prefer Blade Runner.

I had a strange conversation about the ethics of the first sexual encounter between Deckard and Rachel, she was a French feminist I was 14.........

It was difficult explaining the fact that Rachel wasn't human and Deckard might not be either and applying our human morals to this situation posed all sorts of issues and that this was actually part of the whole story and not just some situation to get your feminist knickers in a twist about.......

Still prefer Blade runner
