Blade Runner 2049 (2017) — The Luv & Joi Episode
Manage episode 329958296 series 2791693
Margot and Jordan have reached a very special juncture in the Botcast with this episode about Blade Runner 2049, because they finally get to talk about Luv and Joi — and feature their very first special guest! Your co-hosts are joined by This Podcast's Boyfriend, Taylor Wilhite, so he can speak on what is possibly his favorite movie ever made. There's a lot of ground to cover in this one: why does radical robot uprising hinge on extremely boring heterosexual reproduction? Who is the real hero of 2049 (and why is it Joi?)? Why the hell didn't Sylvia Hoeks star in everything after this movie came out? What are the limits of AI consciousness in hologram fembots? Why are Dave Bautista's glasses so tiny? It's nearly a 3-hour movie and we had to cram it all into one reasonably sized conversation, so let's get to it.
Produced by: Jordan Crucchiola
