Things I had forgotten:

- The total dedication to realising a dystopian future. The visuals Scott managed to conjure up are truly incredible.

- The wonderful contemplative nature of that Final Cut.

- Rutger Hauer's presence.

- The deliberate and exquisite pacing.

- The way it pushes its science fiction essence to the background by making the story paramount, thus becoming a prime example of the genre.

-Just how bloody good the whole thing is.
