I really think all the cuts are good and have something worthwhile. I'm wholly of the opinion that the theatrical cut's exposition track added something to the whole film noir ambiance. I don't even buy the excuse that Harrison Ford sounded bored while doing them, the voiceover matched the whole "cold fish" wandering apathy of Deckard. There's some great lines in that voiceover that it's a shame they're lost like tears in rain.

So, really, you should watch the theatrical version followed by the Final Cut.
I agree. I thought the voiceover was nice and added to it. It could have been better, but I didn't get the impression Ford was just trying to throw the whole thing acting bored either. then again ti's been a decade since it saw it and last time I tried to watch it I fell asleep so welp. The other cuts are also good too though the unicorn poo poo was kinda lame imo.

I'm hoping for "jock older brother" Gosling from the Are You Afraid of the Dark? episode, "The Tale of Station 109.1"

(I'm sure he'll do fine. After Arrival, I trust the poo poo out of this director.)
Hah, we were actually doing an Are You Afraid of the Dark marathon a few months ago since my gf never saw half of them growing up and I haven't seen it in over two decades. And we got to that episode and we were like, wait holy poo poo is that gosling? He looks almost exactly the same, just taller/bigger. It was fun seeing other random people like Jewel Staite and going wait gently caress is that her/him??

loving fantastic episode though, probably a top 5.
