Maybe you've been feeling it, and lately everyone's been talking about a movie, Blade Runner: 2049, a sequel to the 1982 blockbuster sci-fi blockbuster Blade Runner.
On October 27, the film will be released in China.
It's exciting to think that in our lifetime, we can actually walk into the cinema and witness the sequel to "the greatest science fiction movie in history".
1982's Blade Runner, mainly about the future of Los Angeles in 2019, Terry has created a large number of N6 replicants, although they are set to only have a four-year lifespan, but they have the same thinking ability as humans, and they are much more powerful than humans.
Because of this, humans sent these replicants to alien colonies on high-risk missions. However, 6 replicants defected and fled back to Earth in search of ways to prolong their lives, only to be hunted down by policemen named Blade Runner.
The story of the entire "Blade Runner", although not complicated, but the style of the future world shaped by the film, the meaning of the story mapping, and the philosophy conveyed by the director have deeply influenced the subsequent science fiction genre films, and director Scott has also been known as the "godfather of science fiction".
The "cyberpunk" science fiction style mentioned in the film has also become an important feature of future science fiction films. Among them, classic films such as "The Matrix" and "Ghost in the Shell" have been influenced by "Blade Runner".
It is precisely because of the unshakable position of "Blade Runner" in the history of cinema, so even if "Blade Runner: 2049" has spanned 35 years from the previous work, it still cannot resist everyone's expectations for "2049", and is even called the most unmissable science fiction movie this year.
Blade Runner: 2049 takes place in Los Angeles, 30 years after the previous game, 20 years after 2019.
Why is there a 30-year gap? Why not just seamlessly connect with the previous game? What happened in those 30 years?
No hurry, "2049" director Dennis. Villeneuve has long anticipated the audience's myths, and he has specially prepared three short films so that everyone can clearly understand what has happened in the past 30 years, for everyone to supplement the background knowledge of Blade Runner in time.
The three short films are Blade Runner: 2022 Dark Havoc, Blade Runner: Dawn of the Replicants 2036, and Blade Runner: 2048 Nowhere to Escape.
These short films are a good glue for the previous and sequels, while also enriching the audience's understanding of the world of Blade Runner.
As you can see from the title, the three short stories take place in 2022, 2036 and 2048.
Among them, "2022" especially uses the animation style, which can more flexibly connect the previous work and the sequel, and the length is also the longest among the three short films, and the story information points are also the most dense.
In order to closely link the classic previous game "Blade Runner", the short film can be described as sincere, paying tribute to many details.
For example, the style of the short film scene closely follows the previous work, still cyberpunk style, and even in the language of the lens, it is very similar.
The dove also appears in the short film, like the dove that Roy held in his arms when blade runner died, symbolizing the dove flying to freedom with Roy's (replicant) soul.
And "2022" is not only the story setting closely behind the previous work, but more importantly, it paves the way for Blade Runner: 2049.
At the beginning of the short film, a new character was introduced: the N8 replicant, compared to the N6 replicant of the previous game "Blade Runner", the N8 replicant has the same natural lifespan as a human, except that each N8 replicant, the right eye is marked with a serial number, from this point of view, the N8 replicant is more like a man-made product, the enslavement meaning is stronger.
Through the short film, we can see how in the three years from 2019 to 2022, the replicants have cultivated obscurity and plotted a replicant rebellion to bring mankind to an unknown dark catastrophe.
The cause of the replicant revolution is that they found on the battlefield of Karansha on the extinct star that both armies are replicants, and such a "game life" fate, the replicants are not convinced.
The trigger that directly led to the replicant revolution was the rise of the human supremacist movement, which identified replicants by searching for the electronic archives of replicants and continued to abuse them.
In such a double suffocation environment, crushing the last straw of the camel, the replicants began to unite, the Jedi counterattacked, and created the 2022 blackout, with the purpose of destroying all the magnetic rail backups of the human archives, including the archival data of the replicants, in order to hide themselves, not to let their identities as replicants be easily exposed, and to prevent being exterminated.
The background of the 2022 Blade Runner is played out under such an irreconcilable circular contradiction between humans and replicants.
But did the replicants create the Great Blackout with the aim of destroying humanity, no, they just want to hide themselves better and rediscover their value and the meaning of life through the Great Blackout, in other words, the Replicants want freedom.
As the leader of the replicants in the film, Iggy, said: "We may live longer than the old replicants, but the life span is not life, I want life, we are fighting for it"
The successful implementation of the Blackout Program led to a dark catastrophe that lasted for several weeks, and the replicant materials in many human archives destroyed could no longer be repaired. Humanity thus entered the era division before and after the Great Blackout.
At the end of the short film, the leader of the replicants, Iggy, digs out his right eye with the serial number, which means that the last proof of the replicant on him is also eliminated, and the replicants have achieved a stage victory.
Because of this great blackout, human beings, from the official to the private sector, can no longer identify replicants through simple means, and have also stopped killing existing replicants. Humanity's own economy is also collapsing more and more scarcely.
Terry, which produced replicants, was therefore prohibited by law from reproducing replicants, resulting in the company on the verge of bankruptcy.
At this time, Wallace, which solved the crisis of human food shortage, acquired Terry Company, and the company that produced replicants was renamed Wallace.
The short film "Blade Runner: Dawn of the Replicants 2036" specifically tells how Wallace broke the law prohibiting the production of replicants and introduced a new type of replicant in 2036, 14 years after 2022.
It is also worth mentioning that in the "2022" short film, there is a picture of a defection N8 replicant, this person is named Saber.
He is the protagonist of Blade Runner: Nowhere to Escape 2048, a short film about how Saber struggles to survive in human circles and finally reveals his identity to save a girl.
Saab's situation in 2048 also represents a considerable number of replicants, living as carefully as he did after the great blackout.
And why Saber appeared on the defector list of "2022", why he made the short film "2048" specifically for him, and even in the trailer of "Blade Runner: 2049", he still appeared.
These layers of suspense can only be known by going to the cinema to see "Blade Runner: 2049".
It is not difficult to see that on the eve of the release of "2049", the three short films specially produced by the official perfectly complement the major events that have occurred in the 30 years between "Blade Runner" and "Blade Runner: 2049".
In particular, "2022" defines the background tone of the post-2019 Blade Runner era, thus extending "2036" and "2048" on the basis of "2022".
It is not an exaggeration to say that "2022" adds bones in the context of the soul core of Blade Runner, making the entire blade runner's world more three-dimensional. In addition, there are two wings of "2036" and "2048" to add supplements.
"Blade Runner: 2049", released on October 27, Presumably the story must be wonderful enough to fly!
