Oh I have seen several of the Director’s Cuts (there are more than one) And yes, the origami is important.
There’s five releases of the damn thing with two official Directors cuts 
Final cut is the best, yeah.

I can relate to that! I want this on my gravestone: “All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain”

His best one-liner was right before it, too. “THAT’S the spirit!”
That and “I want more life… fucker!” were perfectly delivered.
You’re right that 2049 had no analogue to that. However, 2049 had two perfectly done death scenes - for both K and Joi. And Joi’s scene leading up to that was what made her end perfect. “Just like a real girl.”
2049 was different than the original but still incredibly well done as a movie.

Also: “If only you could see what I’ve seen through your eyes!”’
Or “I make friends”
Ooooorrrr “The light that burns twice as bright burns half as long, and you have burned so very very brightly, Roy”:
The orginal BladeRunner had such great script!

The original Blade Runner is probably the only film I have seen every year at least once since it came out. I think I know most of the dialog by heart.
That said, I went and watched 2049 again two days after my first view (in the movie theater). I don’t think I have ever done that…
As good a follow-up as one could have asked for. (Also, watch the three shorts that are connected to the movie and tell “little” side stories (prequel shorts) - very well done and providing further background)

When I still smoked weed, I watched it at least once a week, for about three years. Also, Ace Ventura!
This must have been the closest I’ve been to OCD, the pleasant kind of OCD 
And yes, I know all dialog of both films by heart!

Maybe I am missing something here, but I am sure he said “father”

Hah…
Not to go all psychoanalysis: “father” always made perfect sense to me. The expletive would be understandable, but, somehow, not what I’d expect Roy to say… despite his tendency to use violence.
Didn’t Tyrell refer to him as “…the son who returned home…” or something like that!? Hm, maybe I am due for a re-watch

the prodigal son, yeah
Both versions of the line are canonical for me, having seen it

I’m sure that Rutger Hauer would have preferred the “fucker” version! But Ridley Scott is a “father” man, of course…

Anyway. In the end, the central theme of both movies is exploration of what it means to be human. Both do a truly amazing job of doing that. In some ways, 2049 even more than the original.
Another thing I think is funny though is I remember almost nothing about Leto’s performance. He could have been deleted from the movie without any effect at all.

Well, his performance might not have been the most impressive in the movie, but the character non-chalantly killing off a newly hatched female replicant because she is barren (again), or him bringing back Rachel, are important scenes 
Yes, very much so. The scene where K finally realizes he is not the kid is pretty strong - he wanted to believe it so much.

I consider the White Zombie dialogue to be canonical:
I am the Nexus One
I want more life, fucker
I ain’t done, yeah!
