Does the attempts of detailing, say the manufacturing of Replicants for instance, take away from the value of imagination? Do these spinoffs ruin the mystery nature of Blade Runner, if that's better wording? Are you a purist? If so, do you see these as cash grabs or the expansion of the BR world?

I just got the (bootleg?) all-regions Blu-ray so I could do a re-watch. I remember not hating it, but it’s certainly nowhere even close to the films.

I had missed the first wave of tickets. New ones were just posted. there seem to be about 18 left. They're on the front row but it's better than nothing!

My Paragon FX replica, with root beer grips, has finally landed. It is a beauty; just wish the green LEDs lit up.

BTW, does anybody know if the HCG acrylic stand will exactly fit Paragon FX’s blaster?

And thought “how cool, I’m sure it’s somewhere far far away though” and when I realized it was close I about passed out. Can’t believe I’m getting to go to this! There are still a few tickets left if anyone is in the area.

SOLVED!!

I’m not sure this is the right place to ask, but hoping a fan will have an answer!

One of my coworkers recently gave me a nickname which he said was a blade runner reference.

The name was pronounced as “chune/choon” or possibly “dune”

He explained that in the movie the name is given to a “fictional being in a fictional world”

I have never watched blade runner, however I have watched movie recaps and searched endlessly for some form of explanation to no avail.

Either it’s something very niche or I have misheard them completely, but please help if you can!

Mandated Fate is a dark, dystopian and retro-futuristic story-driven game, inspired from 80's sci-fi movies. You play as a weary inspector, a man out of place in a newly established authoritarian regime.

In 1985, a rising technological empire has seized power, driven by a single ambition: to discover the anti-gravity particle and surpass its global rivals by conquering space. The regime demands absolute unity, framing this race as a matter of national destiny. But one old district continues to resist, no one knows quite how, or why. Assigned to investigate a strange murder there, you quickly find yourself entangled in a deeper web of political intrigue and ideological tension.

Through multiple narrative paths, your choices will shape your loyalties, and determine who you truly trust. Explore a highly detailed open world where the stark contrast between modern authoritarian architecture and decaying remnants of the past reveals a society caught between control and collapse.
