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. |
Blade
Runner has been voted top
Science Fiction movie of all time in the June 2002
issue of Wired
magazine. Three cheers for Wired for being so clued
in! |

BBC:
The Film 99 top 100. The British Broadcasting
Corporation broadcasts Britain's premiere movie
show. They did a survey of the century. The British
public decided Blade Runner is their second favourite
film ever! |
Time
Out's Centenary Top 100 Films. 60th position. Time
Out's Readers' Top 100 Films. 4th position.
Time Out is the crucial London entertainment magazine.
The two results prove (a) the BBC vote isn't a fluke,
and (b) the public have far better taste than the critics.

a "real people" vote - BR got to 33rd.
