Thanks, to be clear I don't dislike the original. It does a lot of stuff good, like world building. But 2049 is actually structured with acts and has a main character who develops throughout the film.
I like them both a lot but the original is a classic I keep going back to. Maybe I'm just the right age for it.
It's definitely a classic, it just seems like the parts with Ford in the middle of the film doesn't really achieve much to me. I think a version of the film around Deckard chasing just Roy Batty (and not the others) might have been better. Hauer did fantastic work every time he was on screen he should have got more.
But maybe it was an artistic choice to include Deckard hunting the other replicants as a commentary on meaningless violence.
