The only cut of Blade Runner that I have seen is the final cut. I asked that same question when I first watched the film and all the people that I talked to said watch the final cut first. So, I would personally go with the final cut.

LOVE your picture! The Social Network is one of my favorites!

Thanks, that's the thing that I plan to do.

It is firmly in the drama, horror, thriller vicinity. But why I rated it so high was the assuredness to the surreally ordered visuals (as is geometry, mis en scene). I found that to form a parallel with a story about people living a very ordered existence. This may not make sense but think Hitchcock's Shadow of a Doubt as told by Bunuel.

Here's a capsule I wrote a while back
Stoker (dir. Park Chan-Wook) ½

A disturbing thriller that couples an eerie aura of suspense with mathematically precise visual symbolism. The detailed, ordered shots attach a dark underbelly to stoic suburbia reminiscent of David Lynch's Blue Velvet. It's not a complete original, but a very fine mood piece, nonetheless.

I am personally waiting for a $10 price, so I would say $18 is a bit steep for buying something blindly. It's a tough call.

The Social Network? Good call, Mr. Olsen!
