I'm 50. I've just watched Bladerunner for the first time.

Utter horse shit.

People say that Trump was a great president because they invent post hoc rationales to explain what seems incoherent. 5d chess etc.

I assume it's the same approach that leads people to label Bladerunner a classic.

@stuartblair

Well I disagree.

The problem is that narratives don't have to be rational, or logical. Novels, films, poetry, can be rational and logical, but it not a requirement. In fact the narratives that make a difference to humans are almost always not logical or rational.

Blade runner is mostly allegory, and it turns out that most all great tales throughout history have been allegory.

May I suggest to stick with documentaries.
And leave fiction to those that have an imagination.

@corlin of course! I'll leave you to bask in the majestic splendor of the Emperor's New Clothes.
