Denis Villeneuve levererade sannerligen en värdig uppföljare till den gamla kultklassikern Blade Runner. Den gick hem hos både kritiker och biobesökare. Problemet var dock att för få människor faktiskt gick och såg den. Detta börjar bli ett stort problem i Hollywood där de stora produktionerna blir allt mer kostsamma, och behöver således sälja enormt mycket för att kunna gå med vinst. Villeneuve har suttit ner och pratat med Yahoo där han förklarar att inte alls förstår varför filmen gått sämre än väntat:
"Honestly, I don't know because we had the best critics. I'm still digesting it. I had the best critics of my life, I've never had a movie welcome like that, okay? At the same time, the box office in the United States was a disappointment, that's the truth. Because those movies are expensive, and it will still make tons of money but not enough. I think the thing is that it's maybe because people were not familiar enough with the universe, and the fact that the movie's long. I don't know, it's still a mystery to me."
That's the first thing one of my sons told me: 'Papa you honor the first movie until the very end.' Because the first movie had the same fate. The original Blade Runner when it came out wasn't a success, and through time became was it is today. I was not looking for that. But what I really am at peace with is the hard core fans that love the first movie really welcome this one, and that for me it means the world."
Har du sett nya Blade Runner?
Se inte så bitter ut Ryan, du fick dig ändå en saftig lön utbetald kan jag lova.
