I dunno. The trailers are great and all, but I can't help but think that there's nothing that this movie can possibly add.. Honestly, watching them just makes me want to watch blade runner again.
I mean I'll watch this and hope for the best but I don't expect much.

This is 21st century Hollywood 101 in its purest form right here, how long have you been in a coma? It's for the people who financed it. They're taking an already successful brand name, dumbing it down, filling it full of violence and eye candy, and milking it like the cash cow that it is basically guaranteed to be.
I hate everything that this movie stands for, and I'm probably going to pay to see it in a theater too because it looks fucking awesome.

Not a matter of like or hate-- in this instance its more about how well-suited the director is to be directing this movie.
Its going to be a great fit for the genre, regardless of how people felt about the editing of Sicario, and the movie is going to kick ass as a result. The steps up the ladder of the puzzle go 1) Sicario 2) Prisoners 3) Bladerunner.
Prisoners being the movie that demonstrated the atmospheric stuff we can expect in Bladerunner, but Sicario works as a measuring stick as well. This is the best possible candidate to direct for the genre, and everyone is going to see that come release.
This is the best possible Bladerunner you are going to get.

i have not watched anything BUT the trailers.
my guess:
my guess:
all the "people" in the modern city are replicants -from the trailer, all the ones in the ruined city/hobo/bum clothes are refugees/humans

I'm guessing that the Replicant Girl from the first film is somehow the key to replicant longevity that the current replicants can't seem to solve.
Harrison Ford spent a long time covering their tracks and hiding her from them so they couldn't use her for this purpose? Something along these lines.

Yeah if they absolutely, positively just had to make another Bladerunner then they got one of the best directors they possibly could have to do it.
He's also going to be directing the Dune remake.

Yea I thought they directly stated that they intentionally gave replicants a short lifespan as part of the creation process? Thus, existing ones are pretty much F'd, but they could change the potential for upcoming ones if they got control of the process (or humans just decided that was unethical or something and gave replicants a normal+ lifespan)
