"Blade Runner"

>"Blade Runner"
>uses a gun
>drives a car

???

the blade was metaphorical and the running was allegorical

>I saw C-beams, man, I can't die right now!

doesnt he fuck a hooker or something

blade runner comes from ruhig bleiben which is german for "keep calm" which is what the blade runners do to the public
they keep the public calm by killing defective replicants before they get out of hand causing panic

It comes from a novel about scalpel smugglers.

its a name of an older book called "the bladerunner" about surgical tools and services on the black market which there is smugglers hence bladerunners
Ridley Scott said thats a cool sounding name, I'll buy the rights to use that name and thats about it

Can't make this shit up

I don't remember him driving a car.

>It comes from a novel about scalpel smugglers.
what are you talking about

im talking about the in-universe explanation
it would be retarded if what you said was the in-universe explanation
stop trying to sound smart

there isn't one

yea there is
you just didnt bother with reading any of this prior to this movie
a band wagon redditor who only liked blade runner because a sequel came out

>t. brainlet

>I saw the Tannhauser gate man!
>It's, like, a gate to the stars and shit!
>DON'T KILL ME

>i seen a spaceship

took me a second but I got it and started giggling. thanks for making me laugh on one of the shittiest nights of my life.

deriding people for a legitimate explanation is moronic, Ridley wanted a catchy name that stuck, just like how the book caught his attention on the name alone

>i seen a space

If you would have got trip nines I would have funded Gun Driver.

open up a dictionary and look up a metaphor
