Blade Runner 2049: Who is K (Ryan Gosling)?

sivertime — Tue, 16 May 2017 16:44:57 +0000

The latest trailer of Blade Runner 2049 raises more questions about the plot than it provides clues. So start with the real identity of K (Ryan Gosling)!
What has happened since Rick Deckard (Harrison Ford) disappeared thirty years earlier at the end of Blade Runner ? It is partly to this question – one imagines – that will endeavor to answer his suite, Blade Runner 2049 , directed by the director Denis Villeneuve. But to bring new blood, it is the investigation of a brand new character that we will follow. K, is the name of the main hero of the film, interpreted by Ryan Gosling, who is still particularly mysterious. We do not know much about him, except that he is a Blade Runner as Deckard was before him and that he is looking for him. For in one of his investigations, he would have found elements that brought him directly back to his predecessor. And other than that, well, that is just about everything ! Indeed, his very name is part of the mystery that surrounds him, the character of Ryan Gosling almost having no air of having an identity of his own. And it’s clearly not the latest intriguing trailer of Blade Runner 2049 that has taught us more about him, quite the opposite! In fact, this new trailer has only raised a little more question about this hero in the guise of detective of black film but evolving in a futuristic world. So suddenly, the editing of melty asks the question: who is really K ? And it’s clearly not the latest intriguing trailer of Blade Runner 2049 that has taught us more about him, quite the opposite! In fact, this new trailer has only raised a little more question about this hero in the guise of detective of black film but evolving in a futuristic world. So suddenly, the editing of melty asks the question: who is really K ? And it’s clearly not the latest intriguing trailer of Blade Runner 2049 that has taught us more about him, quite the opposite! In fact, this new trailer has only raised a little more question about this hero in the guise of detective of black film but evolving in a futuristic world. So suddenly, the editing of melty asks the question: who is really K ?
The trailer of Blade Runner 2049 is indeed very miserly in information and clues. But some of his scenes and some of his aftershocks obviously let us think that K is not a cop of the future like the others. First there is this confrontation between Rick Deckard and himself, in which he tells his elder to have questions to ask him. And it must be believed that he was involved in something dangerous since it is clearly sought, Deckard specifying that “they are there ” … before everything explodes. Who are these ” they “? The antagonists of the film, more than likely. But it remains to be seen why they hunt K, which apparently appears to interest Wallace a lot, The Replicant maker played by Jared Leto (the villain himself?). However, what most intrigues us is of course this conversation that takes place at the end of the trailer between K and Joi , the young woman incarnated by Ana de Armas, who tells her: ” I tell you You are exceptional . ” His comments have also resulted to arouse a rather peculiar term – but indecipherable – on the face of K, before she continues by saying, ” Your story is not over remains a page. .” . But then, how is K special? It is of course this conversation that takes place at the end of the trailer between K and Joi , the young woman incarnated by Ana de Armas, who declares to him: ” I told you always, you are exceptional . His comments have also resulted to arouse a rather peculiar term – but indecipherable – on the face of K, before she continues by saying, ” Your story is not over remains a page. .” . But then, how is K special? It is of course this conversation that takes place at the end of the trailer between K and Joi , the young woman incarnated by Ana de Armas, who declares to him: ” I told you always, you are exceptional . His comments have also resulted to arouse a rather peculiar term – but indecipherable – on the face of K, before she continues by saying, ” Your story is not over remains a page. .” . But then, how is K special? His comments have also resulted to arouse a rather peculiar term – but indecipherable – on the face of K, before she continues by saying, ” Your story is not over remains a page. .” . But then, how is K special? His comments have also resulted to arouse a rather peculiar term – but indecipherable – on the face of K, before she continues by saying, ” Your story is not over remains a page. .” . But then, how is K special?
And there, one necessarily thinks that there is a good chance that, just as one always suspected for Deckard, K is in fact … a Replicant . But not a Replicant like the others, no more than a Replicant like Rick Deckard could be! Already because it would replay on the schemes of the first film, which would not frankly interest. Then because it is simply a new character who must therefore have its own origins and motivations. So, yes, K might not be a human and rather be part of the androids, while representing a whole new form of Replicant. Especially since we are not too sure of the identity of the person who crosses the wall behind Deckard as he runs ahead – and so could be K.
But in fact, this is not the only possible hypothesis. For Robin Wright’s words about wall and warfare between species could also be another clue to the nature of K. And if this was the key precisely to break down the barriers between human beings and The Replicants? So what, K could be half human, half replicating, thus combining the characteristics of the two groups? If it seems like a hair – pull, it would also explain why the character of Ryan Gosling is so special … It is of course only speculation and it will be necessary to wait for many months before having the last word of the ” History! What is certain is that for now we do not know much about this famous Blade Runner 2049 .

Blade Runner 2049: 5 things you did not know about the original movie

sivertime — Wed, 08 Mar 2017 18:39:51 +0000

Because for now, the sequel to Blade Runner remains a real mystery, we will content ourselves with making you discover more about the original film!
More than thirty years after the release of Blade Runner in 1982, a series of adventures by Rick Deckard, the “hunter” of Replicant played by Harrison Ford, is on the way, with Ryan Gosling casting and Denis Villeneuve in production, And Ridley Scott Square. But if a first trailer and some photos were unveiled, it is clear that they do everything to hide the plot of the film and we do not know much about Blade Runner 2049 in the end . It is only if we know that Ryan Gosling will incarnate a certain officer K. Planned for October 4, 2017, one even comes to wonder if they will give us other clues before, or leave us in complete darkness Until the film’s release in theaters. In short, we are clearly frustrated. But we also decided not to let ourselves be defeated and if we can not learn more about Blade Runner 2049 , why not enrich his culture on the original film? This is what Melty’s editorial offers you by discovering 5 things that you probably do not know about Ridley Scott’s film!
1) Harrison Ford was not the first choice for Rick Deckard
At the very beginning of the project, Ridley Scott had planned the role of Rick Deckard for Dustin Hoffman . The actor even worked several months on the project, before leaving the ship following discrepancies on the character’s psychology and “a story of sub” . Eventually, Harrison Ford will inherit the role, and it is now difficult to imagine the replicant “hunter” as someone else.
2) Blade Runner almost had a completely different title
Before calling himself Blade Runner , the film went through several different names. At the very beginning, in particular, it was codenamed “Mechanismo and Dangerous Days” . Not really fun, you get it. Then Ridley Scott found the world of Batman sticking to the atmosphere of the movie, so he had a long time for the film to be called “Gotham City . ” Yes, you heard right. Unfortunately, Bob Kane, the creator of Batman, did not want to give him the rights and the director finally decided to opt for “Blade Runner” , in tribute to a novel by Alan E. Nourse.
3) The original atmosphere had nothing to do with that of the film at its release
Taken from a book by Philip K. Dick entitled “Androids Dream of Electric Sheep , ” the plot was originally scheduled to take place in 1992 in a Los Angeles plunged into a glacial age. But on a small budget, the film team could not carry the scenery to the north of the US and had to slightly change the atmosphere, from snowy landscapes to an underground, polluted, dirty and retro-futuristic Los Angeles.
4) The Star Wars Cameo that you surely missed
In the scene where Rick Deckard is carried aboard his Spinner at the Central Police, a familiar vessel is seen in the background. Normal, it is actually the Millennium Falcon , the Han Solo ship in the Star Wars saga ! An Easter Egg rather amusing when we know that Rick Deckard and Han Solo are both embodied by Harrison Ford. Perhaps it will be found in Blade Runner 2049, whose new photos were unveiled?
5) What does the first scene of the film mean?
It is on a close-up of a frozen eye in which the reflection of a flame crackles that opens Blade Runner. But what does that mean? Asked about the question, Ridley Scott explained that this eye was none other than an “Orwellian metaphor of Big Brother” , or how our society is moving towards a totalitarian state, controlled by an oligarchy of brands. A little fucked by the hair, is not it? So, did you know all that?

So to be sure not to miss, the director of Blade Runner 2049, in which another character from the original film will be cast , surrounded himself with the best: “I decided to take Deakins because he was the best candidate With his 13 Oscar nominations! “.
For Blaise Runner 2049 , Denis Villeneuve is more than a sci-fi film. “I was really excited to work with Deakins who never did science fiction before because we have a very Intimist of the genre ” . Difficult to make more clear: this suite will not be like its predecessor ! The filmmaker will have to conquer new audiences as fans of the first opus released decades ago with Harrison Ford who will resume his role. Between Alien Covenant, Star Wars 8 and Blade Runner 2049, the year 2017 will be oriented towards science fiction !

sivertime — Mon, 13 Feb 2017 18:23:38 +0000

With Blade Runner 2049, whose role Dave Bautista has played a very cool role , Denis Villeneuve will have the heavy task of succeeding Ridley Scott and his cult film of 82. One of the highlights of the film was his visual identity that the filmmaker attempted To respect as he confided in an interview for Variety “For Blade Runner 2049, we did everything to turn inside, to build everything.” The director of photography Roger Deakins was incredible when he “I was able to count on the fingers of one hand the number of green bottoms used during these lesser shoots!”
The director then added “Of course, there will be CGIs, but we tried to limit them, I’m someone old enough, I wanted to make my aliens in animatronics, it was my dream with Premier Contact And my director of photography, in which we dreamed of putting enormous gigantic beasts in aquariums and moved by puppeteers, but unfortunately it was too expensive . This should reassure future audiences: in Blade Runner 2049, in which a character from the original film could be cast , Denis Villeneuve will put a maximum on special effects “by hand” with a minimum of green funds and digital additions.

sivertime — Sun, 05 Feb 2017 18:20:17 +0000
