Blade Runner 2049 & Escape From New York: When American Cities Turn Dystopian | DYSTOPIA Pt 14
Journey Through Sci-Fi04/21/22 • 89 min
This week, we’re joined by top genre journalists and hosts of the sci-fi podcast Robby The Robot's Waiting—Richard Edwards, Dave Bradley, and Tanavi Patel. Together, we dive into the dystopian visions of American cities depicted in John Carpenter's Escape From New York (1981) and Denis Villeneuve's Blade Runner 2049 (2017).
From the lawless, prison-like Manhattan of Escape From New York to the neon-soaked, rain-drenched streets of a future Los Angeles in Blade Runner 2049, we’ll explore how these films imagine the future of urban America and the grim possibilities that come with it.
Join us as we dissect these iconic dystopian landscapes and their impact on sci-fi cinema.
