Since I've seen some rather nice S8 prints lately I'm open to the idea of these on the smaller format now, again, in scope and not faded. Not sure if I'm barking up the wrong tree with Alien and BR but I at least know Aliens was on S8.

Again I will pay good money for these and have cash waiting!

Any similar sci-fi titles will also be considered.

Joel, there was a "Bladerunner" original theatrical trailer released as part of the now classic Sci-Fi trailer reel!

Sadly, most people who bought the trailer reel split it up (to make more of a profit in selling the trailers), but occasionally, you can find the whole trailer reel all together, there is a review of that trailer reel on this website!

(or, at least, I think there was a review, but I just checked the index and I couldn't find it. Could someone make a link if it does exist?)

I went though about 50 unmarked reels last weekend trying to match stuff up - but so far, no luck with Blade Runner... Did find the missing reels for about a dozen other features...So that's something... Will keep looking - I really hope it's here somewhere!

Steven, are all the odd reels 16mm films?
Also sent you another new PM regarding the optical print.

That's good to know Osi, I will keep an eye out.

Not great news from Steven though, keeping my fingers firmly crossed that it turns up, I'm very much looking forward to seeing it on the big screen, I missed my chance recently at a showing in London and can't see it happening again!
