2049 is completely unengaging for me. It seemsa to add exactly zero to the original movie.

Yep. And doesn't work as a standalone movie either.

Aesthetics were amazing. But after a certain point I just don't care how it looks and feels. No story worth digging into.

And it's not like the man can't tell a character driven story. I cared a lot about the characters in Arrival. It made my whole family cry.

I felt nothing from Blade Runner 2049. Nothing.

Did you not care at all for K and his struggle for meaning?
