"Blade Runner - Replicated" - Ongoing split-screen project. (* unfinished project *)
Time
I actually made a start on it last night. I've ripped all of the DVDs and am now ready to import them into FCP.

I think I will try to do this project in parallel with 'Star Wars Begins'.

Name ideas?: Blade Runner: Replicated.

It's going to be a hell of a job to do this though. There are lots of differences in these cuts. The best way to view them would be to have the film re-sync where possible to highlight the differences.

Ok, I’m a glutton for punishment. Yep, it’s yet another project. A split-screen comparison of the 1982 Theatrical, the 1991 Directors Cut, the Workprint and The Final Cut. (Screenshots above show early version with both 192 versions, BRDC and Workprint).

As you may know, there are some major differences between versions and this project will highlight them, side by side, for the first time.

11/12/07 - I have already done all of the video editing. I now need to rectify some sound issues caused by ‘seamless branching’. EDIT: Now that the Final Cut is in this mix too, I have more video work to do.

More soon.

Hi all,

Just got the SUPERB Blade Runner 5 disc boxset.

Has anyone got plans to do an “Addicted to…/Wookiegroomer” splitscreen DVD of all the versions?

I would love to see that.

EDIT: Ok, I’ll do it then

I have asked him already, in an email. Unfortunately he hasn't replied yet. I just hope the reason it's taking time is because he is writing lots of juicy info. Then again, I might have scared him off!

Hi all,

Yes, I've got the History Channel doc, but I tend not to use commentary from people if they weren't directly involved in the creation/production of the film.

As for the grappling hook, unless DWR comes up with some evidence that it existed in the lost cut, I am afraid I won't be perpetuating the myth. Logic tells me that by now we would have seen this footage if it existed. I am still open to suggestion but I won't be including a mention in 'Star Wars Begins'. Sorry if that disappoints you

You're right, that is a unique shot of Alec in the cantina. Thanks!. The shot of him after he's deactivated the tractor beam is actually a shot from Star Wars!
