Videocast – Sonic and Blade Runner: the Similarities (Or Coincidences)
Do you like of "four"? Because this is the number of the newest episode of the Passagem Secreta Videocast! All right, I know the joke was horrible and many of you stop reading right there, but let's go ahead.
In this video we decided to extend the controversy regarding the post that compared the similarities between Sonic and Blade Runner (in Portuguese), published last year and that generated some controversy. To give hints about the music theory part, we invited none other than Eric Fraga, from Cosmic Effect (in Portuguese), to clarify all the similarities that the song of Scrap Brain Zone have with the main theme of the film, composed by Vangelis.
I hope you like the silly jokes, the performance of Cosmonal, and the usual narration. By the way, do not forget to comment if you still believe that this all is a big folly, or if you were blessed with the wisdom and the knowledge that only this Videocast could provide you!
Moreover, as always, I would like to thank Eric Fraga himself, for ceding his image and his time to participate here. I hope he liked this "joint contribution".

So? Do you really think that the Misters Naka and Nakamura tried to "homage" the film? Do not forget to give your opinion (please, for God's sake!).
