Episode 66: Blade Runner (1982)

from The Test of Time · host Alan Noah and James Brief

Thirty five years after Blade Runner first hit theaters, its long-awaited sequel has finally arrived. In our conversation about the original film, we question why robot slaves need fake memories of fake families, how the movie correctly predicted drones but mistakenly thought Pan Am would still be a thing, and why there's no simple way to identify a replicant through, like, a blood test or something. When all is said and done, we find out if 1982's Blade Runner stands the Test of Time.
