Hi 👋
Same dude. Same.
How does it feel to hold the hand of someone you love, interlinked.

I think this is my favorite movie now. I was initially super impressed by the visuals, but now I see how well done the writing was too!
It really is the perfect blend of superb writing and directing.
And thank you, I'm really happy that you got a lot out of the video
The writers are geniuses in this movie. 100s of themes and interpretations and symbolism
Absolutely.
Brilliant video and anlysis. Unfortunetly K did die at the end, the song 'Tears in Rain' points to this as it's the song that Roy Batty dies to in the first movie, furthermore, one of the writers (I think, if not producer) said that K died and 'Tears in Rain' was played there to show it.
Thank you so much!
That's a fair point, but I still think it is open-ended enough that viewers can have their own interpretation. I personally believe he dies though, I would say it also makes the line "dying for the right cause is the most human thing we can do" even more impactful.
Awesome video! Can't wait for the day I see this in a cinema again
Thank you Joe!
Yeah, it would be great to see it on the big screen again one day. Hopefully they'll do that for one of the anniversaries or something.
Thank you for the work my man ❤️🔥
Good to see you back. With a video I can watch without fear of spoilers too, literally perfect.
Thank you!
Yeah projects were quite few and far between last year, but that was mainly because I ended up making quite a few long videos. Not intentionally, it just ended up that way. This video is shorter and my next will be about the same.
This video does have spoilers for the film - unless you mean you mean you've already seen the film so you won't get spoiled.
@@That0therGeorge Good to hear, I'll be looking forward to it.
Already seen the film. Haven't finished BCS, so I haven't watched a lot of what you uploaded at the end of last year yet.
@@plebisMaximus Thank you!
Ah okay, I see. BCS is a fantastic show, I hope you enjoy the rest of it.
Have you seen any other good TV shows or movies lately?
@@That0therGeorge I watch a lot of films, mostly catching up on the classics though, most recently Don't Say a Word. I did also watch Glass Onion when it came out, great movie. What movies can we look forward to seeing you cover soon?
@@plebisMaximus Heard some mixed things on 'Glass Onion' but I'm really interested to see it.
I hope to cover 'Fargo' soon and possibly something on 'The Batman'
This is a very well made video, thanks for the analysis!
Thank you very much for the kind words. Glad you enjoyed the analysis.
Really enjoyed this analysis. Thanks.
No, thank you! I'm really happy you enjoyed it.
Have you seen any other good films lately?
This was fantastic man
Thank you Damian, I'm really happy you enjoyed it.
Something quite different than the usual stuff, but it is good to try something new every now and then
I want that jacket
Same, it's an awesome jacket.

Thank you, I'm really happy that you enjoyed it.
@@That0therGeorge Do you do the voice overs
@@marsel8564 Yep, every part of the video process is done by me.
@@That0therGeorge That’s insane man keep going I can easily see you being at a ton of subs in a year from now
@@marsel8564 Thank you dude, I really appreciate that.
Awesome breakdown dude!
Thank you I really appreciate that!
Are you a fan of 2049?
@@That0therGeorge Massive fan of it.
@@1myfriendjohn Awesome!
Have you seen any other good films lately?
Lars is K and he is Kenough.
Wasn't their a theory that Officer K is Driver
They're both very alike.
I thought this was a video about Kendrick Lamar but this turned out much better
Hahaha, thank you!
So THAT is what that meme is from lol. I never have watched bladerunner, or read any books. But it sounds interesting
I haven't read the books, but would highly recommend the films. First one I appreciate a lot more than I enjoy, but the second one is absolutely fantastic in my opinion.
Thank you for tuning in by the way.
@@That0therGeorge no worries, my notis have been kinda weird but i always enjoy ur vids :D
(I messed up the face at first lol
@@Krejii05 No problemo. Obviously I don't upload frequently so there's no rush to try and catch up or anything haha.
Although, I should have a video out in a few days time actually :)
2049 was a great movie
It is indeed! I like the first one a lot, but 2049 knocks it out the park.
Thank you for watching!
and thats why... He is Me 🙂
Thanks
You're welcome, Mr Maguire.
At first I thought joi was nothing.. but then i remembered that K is as artificial as she is.... and that scene where she asks to go to the roof; she's either sentient or a damn good bit of programing.
The idea of giving robots sentience is nonsensical, but giving robots apartments, blood, emotions is too
9:05 Misunderstanding he says. 😂
Just a slight one
K is literally Me. 👽
Interlinked.
@@That0therGeorge 🤣
@@user-lx1il8rx3q Thank you for watching the video by the way.
@@That0therGeorge Your not even close to baseline.
@@user-lx1il8rx3q Okay, but I do look like a good Joe.
Thanks for making a vid on me(he is literally me)
Haha, you're welcome.
In a sea of shit I still cant believe this got made.
2017 was a pretty excellent year for movies to be fair; Baby Driver, Logan, Good Time, Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri, A Ghost Story, You Were Never Really Here, War for the Planet of the Apes etc.
HI 👋
13:39 🥲
I too love 2049. But since you have the comments off in Letterboxed 2 i am just here to say Empire is only half a movie, it only sets up Jedi the way Awakens does the sequels. I like your videos more tham Empire
Glad you loved 2049.
ANH definitely stands on it's own and I agree that ESB and ROTJ are very reliant on each other.
Thought the we were the chosen one. But hell, we were indeed not.
The philosophical depth and meaning of BR 2049 will only grow with time. Joi alone has so much potential for debate and analysis. What of her actions is real, what was just programmed? Is the next step in the BR Movie Universe the revolte of AI, since AI as well as Blade Runners are created to obey, yet they rebel? This Movie mirrors our modern world in so many ways. Loneliness, especially with mid 20 to end 30 Males is a business model, so AI companions like Joi can be seen as a metaphor for modern day Online Dating or not only that but in reality there are already AI Companions that via text/Avatar tell you what you wanna hear. Joi ads in the movie state "Everything you want to hear/see". We are not far away from this in our modern day society. Give this movie another 20 Yesrs and it will be regarded as even more groundbreaking than the first one. It's one of the rare occasions where the second movie outclasses and surpasses the original in its meaning and impact. Too bad not even BR 2049 could break even at the Box Office but did so with home media releases, just like the original. If Denis Villeneuve continues his amazing filmography like he did with Dune Part 1, he will be on par with Scott, Spielberg, Lucas one day. BCl to topic: Blade Runner 2049 is not only a SciFi Masterpiece it also is on so many Levels a social commentary on our modern world. We are humans and when we deny basic human rights to something that we create than it will be Slavery. AI will continue to rise, the existential crisis of the modern human will only grow with time, the more we destroy our home planet, the more we will have to push for space colonies. Are those born on a colony still Humans or are they even "earthlings"? What if we colonize the mars in the next 50 years and they wanna be independent? Those are things that will happen. What if we advance even more in technology like cloning, genetic engineering and come to a point where we could create artificial humans? What if for example the USA, Europe ban this tech and china, Russia and North Korea push for it. Do the states that banned it deny those geneticly created humans basic human rights? Do we even accept them as humans? ARE they even humans? I guess in those questions and this regard we gonna see how BR 2049 will be discussed. What we all can learn from the movie is, that even if K or Joi were created to obey both of them are the most human characters in the entire movie. We as an audience even see how joi confesses her love for K before she is terminated, ceases to exist, also because K took her with him. "Like a real girl" has so much more meaning. To both of them they are real for each other. That is more than most relationships in our modern world even can say. I'm just overwhelmed on how many levels this movie makes me think and feel. Thank you for this master class video.
Agreed with your analysis on Joi. I do think these next couple decades will be interesting, but I will say that I don't believe it's all necessarily doom and gloom, but that may differ depending on one's personal perspective.
It is a shame about the box office, but at the same time this film is talked about so much and is always being referenced in various things. It strikes me as something that, like the original, has that longevity. It isn't a mega blockbuster that brakes a billion at the box office, but is never talked about again haha.
Not many mainstream audiences will know "Villeneuve" by name, but I think he's already considered up there as one of the best directors of our time amongst film fans.
Thank you so much for the compliment, I'm really happy you enjoyed the video. And thank you for all your input as well!
Agent k’s name is Joe…he’s literally me.
He's literally you...
You’re too important for “K”
Joe isn't his name. Never was.
