It kinda does

Yeah, it's what we called Tech Noir in the 80s, after that nightclub in The Terminator.

Feck Noir.

I like the look of it but that kind of atmosphere gives me the vibe that the air is always polluted

Must be because of the steam in the streets.

**PhoenixRising** · 08-08-2019, 04:16 PM

I actually got the impression that it always rained every day in Los Angeles 2019, which as we all know isn't true.

And I just think that Ridley Scott likes that particular aesthetic. Also, a lot of people in the early 80s did think that pollution would make things that dark, which again, didn't really happen.

But I don't think that Scott made L.A. look like that for that reason, I think he was trying more for a 1940s film noir look, combined with a 21st century futuristic look. John Carpenter used a similar look for Escape From New York, and James Cameron also used a similar look for The Terminator.

With the steaming and constant raining its hard to focus on much else as far as the weather goes...

**PhoenixRising** · 08-09-2019, 03:22 PM

Yeah, but this is L.A. I don't think it ever rains nearly as much as it did in Blade Runner.

They did get a lot of rain this past year, which solved their previous drought problems. I think they got a little too much.

Oh yeah, I meant the atmosphere on Blade runner though, not the real location

How long more are we going to be discussing the climate in Blade Runner?

a new hope · 08-10-2019, 07:45 AM

As long as someone comes up with a different subject

I think most of it was actually filmed in WB studios and back lots.

The sequel was crap. Who needs a Blade Runner film all about a goose?

a new hope · 08-11-2019, 05:33 AM

Goose

?

I didn't watch the sequel, so... are you referring to Mr. Gosling?
