Blade Runner: The Final Cut Q&A with Screenwriter Hampton Fancher
Zoom/Online see event description for link details, CA, United StatesPicturehouse 441 and ACE are proud to be partnering on a series of live virtual Q&As as part of our mutual efforts to promote film literacy.
Join us for a Q&A with screenwriter Hampton Fancher, as he discusses his work on science fiction film Blade Runner: The Final Cut. Upon its release in 1982, Blade Runner opened to mixed reviews and middling box office in a cut that reeked of studio intervention. A decade later, Ridley Scott released a director’s cut that more closely aligned with his vision, and it was immediately hailed as a landmark work of cinema (this was followed by the 2007 final cut, Scott’s preferred version). A potent mix of film noir, science fiction, and dystopian drama, Blade Runner is an uncommonly intelligent work, written by Hampton Fancher and David Webb Peoples and edited by Terry Rawlings, ACE, and Marsha Nakashima, that asks major philosophical questions about what makes human beings human. The event will be a Zoom Webinar on Tuesday, January 23 at 8PM ET/5PM PT.

Terminator 2: Judgment Day Q&A with Screenwriter William Wisher
Zoom/Online see event description for link details, CA, United StatesJoin us for a Q&A with screenwriter William Wisher, as he discusses his work on 1991 science fiction action film Terminator 2: Judgment Day. The Terminator was a landmark of sci-fi cinema, but like with his previous film, Aliens, filmmaker James Cameron wanted to outdo the original with his sequel. A bigger badder better Terminator film, Terminator 2: Judgment Day ups the ante in every way, taking risk after risk and paying every one off in spades. With Arnold Schwarzenegger as a heroic terminator, Linda Hamilton in full badass mode and editing by Conrad Buff, ACE, Mark Goldblatt, ACE, Richard A. Harris and Dody Dorn, ACE (Special Edition), T2 delivers brains and brawn in equal measure while single-handedly revolutionizing cinematic VFX. Chock-full of brilliant one-liners and given a big heart by Cameron and co-writer William Wisher, T2 stands as one of the great American action epics that has lost none of its power. The event will be a Zoom Webinar on Monday, January 29 at 8PM ET/5PM PT.
