Blade Runner in Top 100s
Australian film critic Rob Lowing chooses her Top 100 films and obviously has excellent taste because she has put Blade Runner in top position!
Ananova, Sky, BBC, etc. report (Nov 2002) that BFI's Sight and Sound Magazine have done another survey (of British film critics and writers) - this time for the Greatest Film of the last 25 years. Blade Runner was voted in at 7th Place. In the non-date restricted survey we reported on in August (see below), they didn't have any films after 1980 in their Top Tens. Hence this poll, which starts from 1978.
Moviemail has an interesting list of 101 Greatest Films of World Cinema. On a survey of favourite film ever, conducted in 2000, Blade Runner came fourth over all.
Blade Runner gets some votes from critics and directors in the British Film Institute Sight and Sound Magazine 2002 10-yearly Top Ten Poll. It is no surprise that in this "Film Art" vote, no films after 1980 made the Top 10s. BR is one of the few films of the last two decades that makes it on the list at all. According to an unofficial count, BR comes out about 46th.
Blade Runner tops the list at Futurist Movies. With top futurism rating and very high entertainment value Blade Runner overcomes its lower plausibility rating to top their overall rating.
Blade Runner pipped to the post in this June 2002 Online Film Critics Society review of 100 years of Science Fiction. The OFCS is an international association of the leading Internet-based cinema journalists.
