So, late last night I decided to revisit Darren McGavin's early 70s TV opus, Kolchak: The Night Stalker, which ran for one season in 1974. If you're unfamiliar with the program, it's a quirky combinat ... |

Thanks for the review. I'm going to pick this up (though I don't even have a Blu-Ray player), mainly for the book. It's a hardcover, right?

Thanks for the tip...I just picked it up for $6, myself. I've never seen the thing, but all this talk has got me intrigued. |

The Deckard of the novel was not a big tough guy like Harrison Ford. The few images above that actually made me think of Deckard mostly made me think of the character in the novel, and how he could lo ... |

Just something I did during lunch...didn't look at photo reference very closely, so it's more of a caricature.

Is it wrong of me to hope this project never gets off the ground? To me, BR belongs to a very specific time, place and cultural context...to revisit it this late in the game seems like a dodgy move.

Okay, this is a bit (or, perhaps, a lot) off topic, but I thought this article might be of interest:
BR fans have more than a passing interest in these matters, so I thought I'd share. |

If this new camera's 3D function works as well as promised, we might be able to "look around corners" in a photograph, a la the Esper sequence.

Just checking in, ever so briefly, to express my admiration for your work. Excellent stuff, Replicant 13.
Speaking as a bit of a design nerd (aren't we all?), it really pushes my buttons. |
