the meaning of the film is a question, what is it to be human? Everybody who is going to read this has seen Blade Runner and if you haven't then you should go watch it now, because it is one of the best Ridley Scott movies of all time also one of the most changed over the years in total there have been around 5 different endings because of violence and audience testing. the audience didn't like the idea of Harrison Ford being a replicant but both the director and Harrison believed that he was a replicant so it wouldn't just be a fight between dark and light, good and bad, evil and heroic it would be a struggle of a replicant that thinks it has been a human all its life but only now it has realized that its been killing its own creed all along, making it an emotional struggle between keeping quiet and excepting fate or uprising and going rouge. there is a lot to talk about so bear with me. It was based slightly on the idea of the novel 'I dream of electric sheep' but very loosely, only in the sense of replicants. Any way the entire film's feel is amazing the use of dark and light and the low tech slums down below and the high tech factories and offices in the light and the constant chinese undertone. Said chinese undertone is related to the rampant consumerism and manufacturing that goes on is based on the chinese built products of today because of how now everything is built in china. replicants are an android that look sound like and act like humans except without all of the years of emotional development this leads to the company behind the replicants giving them memories so that instead of hating their human counterparts accepting their fate, making replicants almost completely impossible to spot against another human being. so why are there replicants who disobey. Because they were created before the change and know they were created for work. And they run to the most populated planet Earth. there are special replicants like the snake replicant that wears a see through coat and even before that is wearing sequins showing how she is like a snake that sheds its skin to refresh and hide in another camouflage, also the odd doll collectors house is fairly amazing because it gives one of these replicants the simple idea that in herself as a pleasure item she in fact she should dress as a doll and wait and preform for the ringmaster replicant and the man who takes her in and then near the end 'Preform' for the protagonist. Who as we have learnt is supposed to be a replicant. Who has a unicorn dream that relates to the idea of replicants, impossible and misunderstood yet somewhere in your heart you know it may exist that you are a replicant.if you give something that looks human emotions, memories, the ability to feel pain, fear of their own death and compassion aren't they human? And if not, the tell me... what is it to be human?
