Director Ridley Scott has opened up a little bit about his time making the 1982 classic sci-fi film Blade Runner. While the film is great, the development of the film was a bad experience for Scott, and when the movie was initially released, it was met with some criticism by critics who thought the movie was “silly.”
While talking to Total Film, Scott reflected on the troubled production of Blade Runner, saying:
“[The shoot] was a very bad experience for me. I had horrendous partners. Financial guys, who were killing me every day. I’d been very successful in the running of a company, and I knew I was making something very, very special. So I would never take no for an answer. But they didn’t understand what they had. You shoot it, and you edit it, and you mix it. And by the time you’re halfway through, everyone’s saying it’s too slow. You’ve got to learn, as a director, you can’t listen to anybody. I knew I was making something very, very special. And now it’s one of the most important science-fiction films ever made which everybody feeds off. Every bloody film.”
The filmmaker went on to share that he recently rewatched Blade Runner for the first time in two decades and he doesn’t agree with anyone who finds the movie too slow or “silly” and says to those who do to “Go f— yourself.” He said:
“I hadn’t seen Blade Runner for 20 years. Really. But I just watched it. And it’s not slow. The information coming at you is so original and interesting, talking about biological creations, and mining off-world, which, in those days, they said was silly. I say, ‘Go f— yourself.’”
Yeah! The film is based on Philip K. Dick‘s novel Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? Set in a dystopian Los Angeles in 2019, the film follows Rick Deckard, a retired “Blade Runner,” who is tasked with hunting down and “retiring” a group of rogue replicants (bioengineered beings that are virtually identical to humans). These replicants, led by Roy Batty, are searching for a way to extend their short lifespan.
It’s such an incredible movie, it’s hard to think that people out there don’t like it! But, to each their own.
