Funny thing about Blade Runner 2049, it felt like there were a lot of references to Do Androids Dream Of Electric Sheep, the scene where K returns home at the start felt very familiar. But aside from the very obvious part where K is told a goat would make an excellent pet, I'm not sure if it actually did reference the book as much as I think, partially because I'm too lazy to reread the book.

I don't see this going anywhere. The book is kind of an aquired taste, and the original film and sequel are kind of niche intellectual sci-fi, rather than more mainstream appeal.

As a long time Blade Runner fan, this should be a very interesting series considering how BR is popular in Japan.
