Blade Runner Behind the Scenes (1982)

Few films in the science fiction genre have had the visual impact and lasting influence of Ridley Scott's Blade Runner (1982). Initially branded a failure due to it's lackluster box office performance (Released just a few week or so after E.T.) and bleak depiction of the future, the film went on to find a worldwide fan base due to its popularity on home video. It is often singled out as one of the most influential films due to its ground breaking production design and visual effects work (which were presided over by Close Encounters of The Third Kind visual impresario Douglas Trumbull, using most of the crew from that film). The resulting images are the most striking depictions of a sprawling modern metropolis since...well, Metropolis (1927)
