The first half looks more like Blade Runner than BR 2049

Yeah I said it - it did look more BR in the first half in the cyberpunk colony (before they go to New Britain where it turns into Minority Report). And there was a bunch of other BR 'steals' - the piano scene, the BR style handguns, Quaids big collar coat (film critic Mark Kermode mentioned there is one bit where Farrel runs in a trench coat holding a gun and recreates the exact same pose as Deckard in the Blade Runner silhouette). when saw TR2012 in the cinema I remember thinking wow forgetting all the cheesy action, boring remake plot, questionable acting, shampoo advert flowing hair/pouting this is what Blade Runner 2 will look like (it was announced BR2 was going to happen back in 2011). turns out it looked even more like BR than 2049
