The Zhora glass scene is one of my favorite in the entire film, I hope they don't mess with it too much.

you know, i like deckard's narration throughout the movie, but there are a couple of spots where it just isn't right, like when he's shooting Zhora... or is the narration after, when he's looking at her? i can't remember, i haven't seen it since my VCR pooted out. anyway, another spot is right after Roy Batty dies, it just kind of ruins the moment.

I've seen the narration-less "director's cut" more often then the VHS, so I couldn't tell you honestly.

There was some discussion of this over on alt.fan.blade-runner and someone posted the following link with screengrabs from the director's cut and the new trailer. While there is some difference I'm waiting for more official word regarding the recent reshoots as someone could've easily done some photoshop work.

looks photoshopped to me; i mean everything in the pictures (besides the tint/brightness of course) is in the exact same place: the reflections, the signs, the man standing there, Zhora, everything. the only difference is that her face looks older- but someone could've put that in. it's just so similar to the original i don't know how they could've reshot it without some type of scientist or something placing everything the same, now that i look at it. if it was refilmed it probably wasn't done in that frame... either that or ridley scott can reproduce anything.

and the "limited tun on theaters" made me lean forward to the screen
and re-read to be sure

there appears to be some imagery of the briefcase set here:

and on checking the original website that posted it, ezydvd, it has been pulled, so it may well be the actual set, which they don't want to reveal, and this site says they expect the images to be taken down too - so get there quick for a peak

more blade runner news afoot leading up to the announcement later this month at the comicon.

AICN ran a piece on Wednesday that was pulled presenting a YouTube clip purporting to be the new titles for the Final Cut version of the film. That clip has subsequently reappeared at the following link.

General consensus, it's fake.

I hope so. The titles for the film were also so simplistic in their presentation and I always liked that. The definition of Replicant was something that was in the Work Print but then dropped.
