How Blade Runner Led to Writer & Actor Strikes

Spoilers:

Blade Runner is a fascinating and fantastic film that wasn’t appreciated in the time it came out. Interestingly, there was a big actors strike when production began as well. We try a new format this episode, let us know what you think! We still talk about the deep themes, fan theories and of course spoilers around this cult classic turned sci-fi staple. But we also blaze new trails discussing the present threat of AI, the writers and actors strikes and their most valid concerns, and how Blade Runner, like many science fiction dystopian stories, warned us of a future that we’re willingly edging closer to.

Reach out and let us know what you think, any major connections we missed between the movie and the real world, and what your preferred version of the film is! Also, be sure to watch Blade Runner 2049 before next episode as we take everything a step further.

Jake also gives quick reviews of Muscles & Mayhem (The American Gladiators docuseries), Attack of the Doc, and Nope. Dustin gives spoiler-free reviews of The Strays, Oppenheimer, Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part 1, and The Exorcist: Believer trailer.
