Blade Runner Intro Re-Cut to Use Actual Los Angeles, November 2019, and It Still Works

The opening scene to Blade Runner, kicked off with a card indicating it’s set in November 2019, depicts a hellish Los Angeles dominated by industrial structures belching flame.

Well, now that it’s actually November 2019, BoingBoing’s Rob Beschizza re-cut the intro with footage of actual present-day L.A.–and it still works, perfectly.
