In the book he's not a replicant Brian Send a noteboard - 25/03/2010 10:20:44 PM
Ridley Scott claims he was in fact a replicant - said so in an interview - whereas Harrison Ford and Rutger Hauer disagree, and Ford claims he had agreed with Scott that his character was human.

Philip K. Dick can't be asked, as he died before even seeing the whole movie apparently, but iirc, the character in the book is indeed a replicant... been ages since I read it, though.

In the book he thinks he might be for a while, but it's settled very decisively that he isn't a replicant.

Quick question....did you see the final cut, or one of the original cuts w/the voiceover? Brian - 25/03/2010 10:19:26 PM 624 Views
Final cut (and in a cinema - that didn't hurt with some of the shots, let me tell you) Legolas - 25/03/2010 10:25:29 PM 641 Views
I wish I could see it in a theater....one of these days I'm going to find it in a local theater Brian - 25/03/2010 10:49:14 PM 687 Views
