Published May. 22, 2008

 

The classic film "Blade Runner" airs tonight on ION TV (Channel 47 - WRPX) at 8:00pm.

Haven't seen this since it first came out, I understand that it has become a cult classic.  I plan to tune in to see why.

LOL, that's funny Charles. I was like what, what did I do. I have never seen the movie lol.

My bad - it is DECKARD not Decker.

The biggest clue is that six had made their way to Earth, one of whom was killed.

Deckard is looking for four. One is missing. The answer, coupled with Gaff's clues, is obvious.

It has a pretty harsh view of the future high tech meets serious poverty. Great visuals especially considering when it was made. Enjoy the movie.

Charles - I have always enjoyed this movie, although it has been a while since I have seen it... I will have to watch again with these points in mind...

Whoa!!! What's with my name coming up? Is there a Decker in Blade Runner?

Ward: watch it knowing that Decker *is* a replicant.

It's not made clear in the film but that is the case. Se http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/entertainment/825641.stm

There are multiple clues, http://www.megaessays.com/viewpaper/77140.html

"With close inspection of the photo that was in Leon's room, you can see several references that point not to the other Replicants, but to Decker. Throughout the movie, Gaff leaves little animals as references, and clues, in strategic places. Their lack of apathy towards life also makes them a suitable mercenary, capable of being given a mission and completing that mission no matter the costs. There is the reflection of the bottle of alcohol, a bottle very similar to that Decker himself grabbed moments before. Therefore, Decker's memories are implanted, and he must be a Replicant. In this, it shows that Gaff has Decker's memories, and is aware that they are Decker's memories."
