Clip Requests 

11.17 From Sam: I need a clip from Blade Runner at the very beginning, about 3:46-4:25 if the versions match up... the opening sequence of LA and a cut or two to the eye.

11.17 From Air

I need three clips (from Final Cut)

Clip from 41:29 to 42:23 Deckard's dream

Clip from 1:05:41 to 1:06:41 Rachael and Deckard's glowing eyes.

Clip from 1:51:38 to 1:52:15 Deckard's discovery of the origami unicorn.

11.17 From Nykki

I need a Blade Runner clip showing the inside of Deckard's apartment in the scene before he kisses Rachael. I only have the theatrical cut to get times off of right now so my times I have down are from 1:04:43 to 1:07:19. But as long as you can see that the apartment lighting in that scene it should be ok. Thanks!

Air's Request: I would like a clip from The Holy Mountain from 8:41 to 11:56. It should show the entire Lizard Toad experience from the drum until the exploding pyramids. 

Tony could also benefit from this same clip :)

By the way, major edit and wiki maintenance grades for last week (11.6-11.12) are up.

11.12

We didn't talk about major edits that will be due for the 19th. Will somebody start a list?

Also, I forgot to mention that my intro to lit class is screening The Big Sleep today at 5:30 in Gore B24. It's one of the classic films of the noir period, and Blade Runner alludes to it. So feel free to come watch if you'd like.
