Having run motion picture film for 20 years, I have to say that the film Bladerunner is untouchable. There should never be a sequel made or a remake. The fact that there was even "The Final Cut" smacks of herecy. Not to mention the removal of Deckard's internal monologue in "The Director's Cut". The books written by K.W. Jeter are a shining example of why fan authors or fan directors should not be given the chance to taint the mythos created by the movie. If there is to be a sequel, let Rigley Scott kill his own creation. Just leave the Holly of Hollies alone.
