  • A Comparative Study of BR and BR 2049 from Zizekian Subjectivity
    ISSN 1751-8229 Volume Fourteen, Number One A comparative study of BR and BR 2049 from Zizekian subjectivity Zhiang Chen, Hefei Thecnology College, China Abstract: This article analyses and compares the classical science fiction film Blade Runner and its recent sequel Blade Runner 2049 from the perspective of Zizek's subjectivity theory. Through Zizek's tracing and weaving the concept of subjectivity from Descartes' radical doubt to metaphysical subject and then death drive in Lacanian psychoanalysis, it will argue that the principle concern of this film is the issue of subjectivity, and while carefully scrutinizing replicants in the films with the multi-faceted conception of Zizekian subject, a detailed comparison between these two films could be accomplished. Subsequently, by analyzing from the genre, namely noir and cyberpunk, it will point out the world delineated in both film is a claustrophobic and paranoid one, as well as a postmodern multicultural world. The denizens of this world lead a machine-like and unreflecting life due to the decline of the Big Other. Finally, by associating subjectivity with death drive, the ultimate significance of subjectivity is revealed as a weapon to antagonize the repressing symbolic order and redeem our world from an apocalyptic future presaged in the films. 1 “Anything real should be a mess”. -- Dr. Ana Stelline “Always jumping that one. Never a thought what to do if it made land”. -- Niander Wallace “All those moments will be lost in time like tears in rain. Time to die”. -- Roy 1. Tracing Subjectivity in BR and BR 2049 1.1 Subjectivity in BR and BR 2049 Before applying Zizek's theory to the interpretation of the two films, the relevance of the issue of subjectivity has to be ensured.

  • The Best Memories
    87 Chapter 5 The best memories IDENTITY, NARRATIVE, AND OBJECTS RICHARD HEERSMINK AND CHRISTOPHER JUDE MCCARROLL Introduction EMORY IS EVERYWHERE IN BLADE Runner 2049 . 1 M From the dead tree that serves as a memorial and a site of remembrance (“Who keeps a dead tree?”), to the “fl ashbulb” memories individuals hold about the moment of the “blackout,” when all the elec- tronic stores of data were irretrievably erased (“everyone remembers where they were at the blackout”). 2 Indeed, the data wiped out in the blackout itself involves a loss of memory (“all our memory bearings from the time, they were all damaged in the blackout”). Memory, and lack of it, permeates place, where from the post- blackout Las Vegas Deckard remembers it as somewhere you could “forget your troubles.” Memory is a commodity, called upon and consumed by the Wallace Corporation, purchased from the memory- maker, Dr Ana Stelline, who constructs and implants “the best memories” in replicants so as to instil in them real human responses. Memory is ubiquitous in BR2049 , involving humans, replicants, objects, and machines. Even “God,” we are told, “remembered Rachael.” Nowhere, though, is the depiction of memory more important than in the attempt to solve a question of identity. Offi cer K has a memory of his past. Even though he knows it is an implant, it is a memory he is emotionally attached to, frequently narrating it to Joi, his digital 99781138625303_pi-247.indd781138625303_pi-247.indd 8877 005-Aug-195-Aug-19 116:36:516:36:51 88 88 R.

  • Nearly 20 Years After the Debut of Blade Runner the Movie, This
    Nearly 20 years after the debut of Blade Runner the movie, this cyberpunk drama can still draw a mean crowd with its film-noir styling and artful depiction of a futuristic LA. Westwood entered the picture hoping to capture the richlydetailed environments and let the player run loose in an adventure morefantastic then any gamer had experienced... and they did. One of the most interesting elements of the game is its close relation to the movie. Both game and movieare set in the exact place andtime and the game is played as Blade Runner Oetective McCoy of the same LAP0 unit as Deckard. Familiar faces from the movie continue to be seen in the adventure, as will be discussed shortly. However, you, enter the game to replace Holdenwho, as is seen in the movie, has just been shot while performing a Voigt Kampff test on a replicant. You begin by entering a world that has strong ties to the movie, but is not limited to the same linearity. The great benefit from absorbing the detail of the movie into the game is that you are permittedto explore and experience areasthat the movie only glancedover. For example, the game begins with you investigating a case of animal murder. As it turns out, most real animals have long been extinct in the game's world, and there areindustries churning outartificial animals, beyond just human replicants (which also explains TyrelI's Owlin the movie). Generally speaking, you'rejob is to track down the replicants who have illegally landed on earth and are causing widespread havoc.

  • Dissolving Literature and Film in Blade Runner 4 Revisiting The
    Notes Introduction 1 . Joyce seems to constitute a tradition apart, with different approaches to the modern. Eco considers Joyce’s A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man as an attempt at the modern, Dubliners , although coming earlier, as more modern than the Portrait ; Ulysses is on the borderline, and Finnegans Wake initi- ates the postmodern discourse by demanding, in order to be understood, not the negation of the already said, but its ironic rethinking (Eco, 1984, p. 68). 3 Blurring Genres: Dissolving Literature and Film in Blade Runner 1. “Blurring genres” is an intentional reference to Geertz’s text “Blurred genres: The Refiguration of Social Thought” in Local Knowledge: Further Essays in Interpretive Anthropology (2000, pp. 19–35). 2 . This word refers both to a historical and legendary figure and to an opera by Richard Wagner about the struggle between sacred and profane love, and redemption through love. This theme in Wagner’s work may also be applied to Deckard and Rachael’s situation. Hitler was very fond of Wagner’s music. The use of German names and motifs in DADES was a result of Dick’s research of Nazi documents and his concepts of Nazi soldiers as dehuman- ized beings that generated the idea of the androids/replicants. German motifs were kept with a different perspective in BR and also in Jeter’s book sequels. 4 Revisiting the Biblical Tradition: Dante, Blake and Milton in Blade Runner 1 .
