DRUNK CINEMA 049: "Blade Runner: The Final Cut" Is Up!


"I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser gate. All those moments will be lost in time...like tears in rain. Time to die."
-- Roy Batty to Rick Deckard, Blade Runner
