The year is 2019 (but really it's 1982). Today we're talking about Ridley Scott's dystopian sci-fi noir Blade Runner! Miles takes Moriah and Stephan through the history of this film, from the book Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? to its initial mediocre release to the director's cut that helped solidify its cult status. There is A LOT that happened on and off set, so buckle up as we dive into the production of this classic.
