Mere data makes a man

I understand why Blade Runner 2049 is loved by so many, but just as well I understand why some people can't stand it. It is pretentious in its artistry and the purposefully slow and boring tempo can get to your nerves. There's strange beauty in the bleak Blade Runner world and at the same time it's just frustratingly tiresome. Every once in a while I noticed myself thinking that the dystopian shit looks nice, but two scenes later I contemplated of ripping the DVD apart.
