Jaime and Patrick are back with another entry into their Anatomy of A Scene series. In this episode, your hosts break down Officer K's first meeting Deckard and how it reflects key events in the original film, and what it means for the overall story. As always, this was a great dive into what we love best about the Blade Runner universe...the subtext. We hope you enjoy!

Something we've noticed lately—in social media circles, in email write-ins, in comments on episodes—is an uptick in people saying something to the effect of "Blade Runner 2049 feels more resonant in my life now than the original does."
This isn't an argument over which film is better. It's not even an argument over which film is more relevant. Rather, it's a conversation about why some fans might be feeling like 2049 is capturing something specific to this particular time and place we find ourselves in.
In this episode, Jaime, Patrick, Micah, and Peter read listener comments on this idea and pose the question to themselves as well.

Hey SOO Family! It's been a crazy month in podcast land, especially for our other show (Perfect Organism). We wanted to take a quick opportunity to check in on the Blade Runner side of things with this minisode, in which we tee up quite a bit of future content we've got cooking.
We also discuss some of the latest rumors about Blade Runner 2099, and think through some ways this release could be handled in a way befitting the legacy of Blade Runner.
We'll be back with more involved episodes soon—thank you, as always, for the support!

We're taking a break this week as we work on our Alien Day 2023 content.
Sebastián Lelio's The Wonder might look like a typical period drama from the outside, but anyone who's watched it knows it's anything but typical. A devastating look at trauma, belief, and redemption, The Wonder unfolds almost like a horror film.
Based on a novel and starring a riveting Florence Pugh, The Wonder released to Netflix in late 2022. If you haven't watched it yet, be sure to check it out before listening to this episode (as is the case with all Frame Rates). There are massive spoilers inside.
But if you have watched it, join Jaime, Patrick, and Micah as they discuss this powerful film and its resonance in their lives.

In our next entry into our 'Anatomy of A Scene' series, Patrick and Jaime are joined by long time contributing hosts Peter from the Midwest, and Micah Greene. This episode finds us exploring what exactly is happening in yet another semi-controversial love scene in Blade Runner 2049. What is transpiring in the time Mariette enters K's apartment until the time she leaves? Is this a tender ménage à trois between three non-humans or is there more at play? Listen along as we share our thoughts and opinions.

Patrick & Jaime sit down to talk about one man's quest to find Harrison Ford. That man is Patrick James O'Hare. From his first memories of seeing Star Wars in the theater as a small child to watching Ford reprise his role as Rick Deckard in 2017's Blade Runner 2049, Paddy takes us through his admiration and obsession with the actor, and what his documentary hopes to accomplish.

The third entry into our 'Anatomy of A Scene' series brings us to the moment when Officer K meets Luv for the first time. On its face, there are a lot of similarities in this scene to when Deckard meets Rachael for the first time. Joining this discussion is contributing host Micah Greene who jumps into the deep end as we break down this pivotal moment in Blade Runner 2049. We hope you enjoy.
