I've been a fan of Blade Runner since I watched it in the cinema as a kid growing up in the U.S.
Since then I've watched it dozens and dozens of times - for me it is still one of the most pivotal sci-fi movies ever made.
However, I always been disappointed with the many re-releases of the original; Because without the voice-over VO (Director's Cut, Final Cut, etc) they just don't feel the same as what I originally experienced at the movies. ( I know many will disagree with me and ask how I could disagree with Ridley, but the voice-over is what I experienced first, and for me it will always be what I compare everything else to... and without the VO the movie just feels lacking ( just like a book or a play where the narrator has been taken out ).
And now, nearly 40 years later I finally have seen the version that has it all... every frame of Blade Runner goodness and every bit of VO ++
Hats off to you WRAITH and let me say personally "You've done a man's job, sir." !
Thank you for giving me the version of Blade Runner that I always dreamed would be made!

Watching this without the VO for me was like watching a silent movie...I needed that inner voice...and the studios SOMETIMES do get it right.
Love the quote too! Classy!
