Shoulder of Orion: The Blade Runner Podcast

A few weeks ago, we spotted a fan-made trailer for a project called Do Androids Dream by a filmmaker named Scott Marczewski. This one-minute trailer—which you should watch here [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0T50pWNZbOA]—is gorgeously shot and suffused with love of Blade Runner, and we knew we had to track Scott down to have him on the show. In today's episode, Jaime and Patrick chat with Scott about his project, why Blade Runner, DADOES, and Blade Runner 2049 continue to resonate so deeply with fans around the world, and what we all hope future Blade Runner projects get right. Again, make sure you watch the trailer first! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0T50pWNZbOA [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0T50pWNZbOA] And subscribe to Scott's YouTube channel, where you will be the first to see the next trailer (which goes live in just a couple weeks!): https://www.youtube.com/@LumenProductionsOfficial [https://www.youtube.com/@LumenProductionsOfficial] // For more on this and our other projects, please visit www.bladerunnerpodcast.com  [http://www.bladerunnerpodcast.com/] // If you'd like to join the conversation, find us on our closed Facebook group: Fields of Calantha [https://www.facebook.com/groups/Calantha/]. // To support the show, please consider visiting www.bladerunnerpodcast.com/support [http://www.bladerunnerpodcast.com/support].

It's been awhile since our last Anatomy of a Scene episode, so we thought we'd revisit the format with an especially impactful scene from Blade Runner 2049: Luv's death at the hands of K. Sylvia Hoeks' performance is a thing of wonder. The score is ravishing. This complicated, astonishing narrative reaches its denouement.  Let's talk about it! // For more on this and our other projects, please visit www.bladerunnerpodcast.com  [http://www.bladerunnerpodcast.com/] // If you'd like to join the conversation, find us on our closed Facebook group: Fields of Calantha [https://www.facebook.com/groups/Calantha/]. // To support the show, please consider visiting www.bladerunnerpodcast.com/support [http://www.bladerunnerpodcast.com/support].

In this ultra-special episode, Jaime and Patrick sit down with Vicki Rhodes, assistant director on Blade Runner, to uncover the incredible behind-the-scenes stories of this cinematic landmark. From all-night shoots to ostrich wrangling, Vicki shares a perspective few have ever heard, a journey into the making of a film that continues to define and defy its genre. This is a riveting conversation, and we’re so grateful to Vicki for pulling back the curtain and sharing her memories of a world that still fascinates us all. // For more on this and our other projects, please visit www.bladerunnerpodcast.com  [http://www.bladerunnerpodcast.com/] // If you'd like to join the conversation, find us on our closed Facebook group: Fields of Calantha [https://www.facebook.com/groups/Calantha/]. // To support the show, please consider visiting www.bladerunnerpodcast.com/support [http://www.bladerunnerpodcast.com/support].

We're proud to announce our inaugural episode of our exclusive Patreon series, Off-World. In this episode, Patrick and Jaime are joined by patron and listener David Hanbury as we go through the costumes of the first Blade Runner film. What makes the designs of the costumes in Ridley Scott's seminal film so iconic? Which costume is your favorite? Do the costumes in Denis Villeneuve' s sequel, Blade Runner 2049 live up to the original film? We answer all of these questions and more!   // For more on this and our other projects, please visit www.bladerunnerpodcast.com  [http://www.bladerunnerpodcast.com/] // If you'd like to join the conversation, find us on our closed Facebook group: Fields of Calantha [https://www.facebook.com/groups/Calantha/]. // To support the show, please consider visiting www.bladerunnerpodcast.com/support [http://www.bladerunnerpodcast.com/support].

Alex Garland's Devs is a heady sci-fi series that asks some Big Questions about the nature of reality, the things that make us human, and the inescapable reality of loss—so if you love Blade Runner, you'll likely love this show! In today's installment of our ongoing Blade Runner Ties series, Jaime and Patrick look at Devs through the lens of Blade Runner and Blade Runner 2049.
