Ridley Scott does Ridley Scott
While many viewers today criticize him for having dared to direct Prometheus and Alien: Covenant, who were recently rehabilitated following Following the release of Alien: Romulus, Anglo-American director Ridley Scott is undoubtedly one of the most important filmmakers of our time. A true image craftsman, Tony Scott's brother is the director of several masterpieces, includingAlien, the eighth passenger em>(1979), Blade Runner (1982), Thelma and Louise (1991), Gladiator (2000), Black Hawk Down(2001),Kingdom of Heaven(2005),American Gangster(2007), the extended version of ;Cartel(2013) or even more recentlyThe Last Duel(2021).
Like many directors before him, such as Quentin Tarantino, Tim Burton or Hayao Miyazaki, Ridley Scott lent himself to the game of the list of his favorite films, while he was promoting Alien: Romulus by Fede Álvarez of which he is a producer. He cited four: 2001, A Space Odyssey by Stanley Kubrick (1971), Star Wars by George Lucas (1977), The Firefighter by Jean-Jacques Annaud (1981) and Blade Runner& nbsp;(1982), by a certain… Ridley Scott!

If this short-list confirms the filmmaker's deep attraction to science fiction, it also raises a smile: it is rare for a filmmaker – however great he may be – to cite one of his films among the best he has seen. (Let's note however that in addition to being a masterpiece, Blade Runner is a major film, which continues to influence many filmmakers, from Christopher Nolan to Denis Villeneuve, including Gareth Edwards, or even the artists of Métal Hurlant.) In any case, this release by Ridley Scott did not go unnoticed, and several Internet users had fun with it!

Ridley Scott citing Blade Runner as his favorite film : OBVIOUSLY
I mean “one of his own films” is Blade Runner.
If I made Blade Runner it would be my favorite movie too.
