OMG!

ANDERS IS TOTALLY RACHEL. NATALIE IS TOTALLY DECKARD. LIPSYNCHING!

I want to add a lot of deepness about the genius of using the final five: Anders and Tory especially as the experimental and off-the-reservation replicants; about using Natalie as Deckard, because of course, Deckard the Replicant is the most heavily telegraphed un-technically-revealed reveal in pop culture, and Natalie is so unrepentantly robotic but also so...different, but to be honest, I'm still stuck at "Screenplay by the Cylon God." SQUEE.

ETA: And ZOMG yes, the vlogs are just awesome sauce, right?

I really wanted to use Tigh as well, but he would have been too much in the vid, so I stuck with Tory as Roy Batty, Tyrol as Pris, and Anders as Rachael. Natalie as Deckard just felt right. I have the final cut of the movie which reveals more than the other versions, but I still can't believe there's people that think Deckard wasn't a replicant. Huh?

I watched all the vlogs in about 2 days. I loved them. It was weird to think about season 3 again.

GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH THE LIP-SYNCHING. TORY WANTS MORE LIFE. LAURA/KARA/HYBRID = OT3 4EVER.

man, I really need to rewatch Blade Runner. but even without a clear narrative frame of reference, THIS IS AMAZING. I especially adore the Hybrid's screams. Laura's surprise appearance made ME scream! I just keep watching it over and over because the story is so evocative and complex. HYBRID.

ALSO AHAHAHAHAHA YOU SEKRITLY WATCHED MY VLOG. two days, really? that's impressive. I'm so happy you loved it, because I am kind of absurdly attached and proud.

YOU HAVE KILLED ME.

Thank you.

Tory is Roy Batty. No one can tell me differently. At least she's what Roy Batty could have been. Ok, she's Roy Batty with balls. In my head I can map out how the BSG world layers over Blade Runner.

I received the Final Cut edition of Blade Runner for last Christmas and I think it's the superior version. There are 5 versions, so that's saying something.

I adored the vlog. It's been a while since I've thought about season three so it was weird to think of it.
