I guess I will need to rewatch 2049 again (I've only seen it once, in the cinema at release). I've watched the original quite a few times since though and I'm increasingly of the opinion that it's quite overrated and gets heavily carried by the visuals and the soundtrack, so I could see a case being made for the sequel being better.
The story / writing is pretty bold too. It's nothing new by modern standards, but it was probably relatively novel in 1982.
The visuals and soundtrack are a major part of any movie. And yeah, the original rocks out on both.
