The entire movie embodies Cassette Futurism, but IMO the self-destruct sequence is particularly great. The entire process looks so satisfying that I probably wouldn’t be able to stop myself from running it if I were one of the crew.

What I love about Blade Runner is the dead-simple use of literal atmosphere: rain, fog, hard lights, and hard shadows. It’s always cold, rainy, humid, and it’s hard to see. Every scene is just… uncomfortable yet it has this exotic beauty to it.
