Oh I'm going to get a lot of mileage out of this gif.

Sometimes, desperately clinging on to that 25+ year-old franchise you were part of works out. If you're Richard Hatch, it gets you a role on the new Battlestar Galactica. If you're Ridley Scott, it gets you a chance to find a whole new series of ways to piss off Alien fans who thought they couldn't get have bigger hissy-fits than when they were watching AVP:R.
And if you're 67 year-old Joanna Cassidy, still hung up on your full snake-dance number being cut from Blade Runner, it leads to this...
I refuse to embed the video in full, because if you want to watch five straight minutes of this woman slowly twirling in place and waving her hands in front of a smoke machine to the strains of R. Kelly, that's on you. I won't stop you clicking this link. But I defy you to tell me this would somehow make Blade Runner better.
Cassidy apparently set up a Youtube account solely for the purposes of creating this - her only other upload is a Blade Runner trailer. Maybe she's hoping Ridley Scott will see it and appreciate her dedication.
Who knows what Ridley Scott likes these days. I suppose it's possible.

I don't know.. but I think in this situation the dance Zora did in Blade Runner is probably best left to the imagination. That may be why they left it out of even the final cut.
Also as much as I respect her and loved her in other films such as Roger Rabbit even with her own smoke machine she can't match the cinematography of the actual film.

Sean Young can now take comfort in knowing that she's not the only crazy has-been that was in Blade Runner.
In other, only vaguely nerd related news, am I the only one who was convinced Body of Proof had been canceled?
And that Lois Lane's mom in that (this woman) voiced Maggie Sawyer?

Look, the woman starred in the re-shoot of her death scene for Blade Runner: The Final Cut..............So maybe she's just having a little fun with all this..........Except for the R. Kelly, it was kinda neat watchin' the lady strut her stuff at 67
@arivalscientistSometimes watching a 67 year old strut her stuff doesn't work out the way you planned...

It's not the best woman slowly twirling in place and waving her hands in front of a smoke machine to the strains of R. Kelly that I've ever seen, but it's not the worst woman slowly twirling in place and waving her hands in front of a smoke machine to the strains of R. Kelly that I've ever seen either.

@Gallen_DugallIt's not the best woman slowly twirling in place and waving her hands in front of a smoke machine to the strains of R. Kelly that we want, but it is the best woman slowly twirling in place and waving her hands in front of a smoke machine to the strains of R. Kelly that we deserve.
