I've never seen this before and I tried a search on this site.I don't believe it's part of the Dangerous Days do***entary. It's only 13 minutes and an interesting look at the production side of Blade Runner with all kinds of goodies...like Syd Mead giving a brief description of one of the future parking meters right on the filming set during the day filming set-up. Really interesting note. At the 7:20 mark you can see the Spinner being driven onto the Warner "city" lot with another "mobile" Spinner in front of it. I thought there was only one Spinner that could be driven. You can hear the VW engine purring away inside it too :) This mini-feature is complete with funky big band disco vamp music of the era...cool. Maybe fishkettlebanana can be spotted in here too :) Here's the link to the film: [url=http://youtu.be/1ZVW8Zn5fSM]Blade Runner Convention reel[/url]

Thanks djrees56! Comments on YouTube seems to point to this being from the 5-disc collector's edition.

Thanks Svanya...the comments on the YouTube video wouldn't load. I guess that means my 4 Core computer wasn't fast enough..or it could mean that your memory of this supposed 5 disc edition is false...but I'm sure it's my 4 Core computer acting up...now...let's talk...about your mother?

!@djrees56; I love that Icon, on a lot of those dryers in batrooms in the city here people write " Push button, receive tasty Bacon". Nah, it's not your computer, comments are glitched right now on YouTube, clear your cookies. :P

Yup, it is on the 5 disc collectors edition, good to have the you tube link bookmarked though, so it can be viewed anytime, anyplace, anywhere! Thanks djrees! :-)

This is one of my favorite video interviews with Ridley. One certainly gets the idea on how difficult (however passionate) he can get once he's all wound-up. His Mother most definitely had her hands full with him, I'm sure. Thanks djrees56. ^_^ S:)
