I agree with your comment on the 1982 version blog post
I’m also of the opinion that the cinematography in the 1982 film is the better of the two, and also that it truly is some of the best cinematography ever done.
Mr. Cronenweth really outdid himself. And yet, no oscar recognition, SMH.
I dunno… It’s clean and technically impeccable, but a little too cold and clinical (like the majority of Deakins’ recent works) and it lacks the texture and the atmosphere (and, dare i say it, the “soul”) of the original Blade Runner.
While i’ll be happy if he wins an Oscar for this, i’ll always miss the Roger Deakins who shot The Assassination Of Jesse James…
