 +===== Blade Runner =====
 +
 +Scott went on to helm the film adaptation of Philip K. Dick's novel Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? after working on the film adaptation of Dune for a year and following the tragic loss of his brother Frank. Blade Runner, starring Harrison Ford, was a commercial flop in theaters in 1982, yet it is today considered a classic.[([[https://3oneseven.com/ridley-scott-director/|3oneseven]])]
 +
 +===== Blade Runner Director's Cut =====
 +
 +Warner Brothers utilized Scott's remarks to make a hasty director's edit in 1991, which eliminated the main character's narration and made a number of other minor changes, including the conclusion. Scott later personally oversaw a digital restoration of Blade Runner and approved what was known as The Final Cut. This version was released in theaters in Los Angeles, New York City, and Toronto on October 5, 2007, and as an expensive DVD release in December 2007.[([[https://3oneseven.com/ridley-scott-director/|3oneseven]])]
 +
 +===== Cyberpunk Genre =====
 +
 +Many reviewers consider Blade Runner to be one of the most important and influential science fiction films ever made, thanks in part to its frequently replicated portrayals of a future metropolis. It is frequently cited alongside William Gibson's work Neuromancer as the catalyst for the cyberpunk genre.[([[https://pl.steelseries.com/blog/who-created-cyberpunk-sci-fi-224|steelseries]])]
 +
 +===== Gladiator =====
 +
 +Gladiator (2000), Scott's historical drama, was one of his biggest critical and commercial hits. It received five Academy Award nominations, including Best Picture, Best Actor for the film's lead Russell Crowe, and Best Director for Scott.[([[https://www.britannica.com/topic/Gladiator-film-by-Scott|Britannica]])]
 +
 +===== Oliver Reed In Gladiator =====
 +
 +Scott collaborated with The Mill, a British visual effects company, on the film's computer-generated visuals, and the film was dedicated to Oliver Reed, who died during filming – The Mill built a digital body double for Reed's final scenes.[([[https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0172495/trivia/|imdb]])]
 +
 +===== Hannibal =====
 +
 +After that, Ridley Scott directed Hannibal (2001), starring Anthony Hopkins as Hannibal Lecter. Despite garnering mixed reviews, the picture was a monetary success.[([[https://emanuellevy.com/oscar/oscar-directors-scott-ridley-background-career-awards-filmography/|emanuellevy]])]
