Deckard is canonically not a replicant, despite ridley scotts final cut autism. Why make him one in 2049?
Deckard is canonically not a replicant, despite ridley scotts final cut autism. Why make him one in 2049?
But they didn't.
This Villeneuve just threw a hint in there because he's shit.
The fact that he's still alive in an irradiated Las Vegas.
>Why make him one in 2049?
they dont, its wallace fucking with deckard
Joe runs through a wall like it's nothing but Deckards punches are huge impacts that make him bleed?
Punch yourself on the nose and see if you don't bleed.
i doubt that replicant capillaries are super hard to burst
>Huge impacts
K took 10 punches like they were nothing. The bleeding didn't affect him, he didn't even notice, Deckard did
they deliberately left the question open. They hinted he might be, hinted he might not be
As to why it's because Riddley Scott was producing the movie and had some impact on the script
The movie only makes sense if you assume Leto was fucking with Deckard about him being a replicant.
They would have already processed him when they took him to their HQ, if he was a replicant they would know
gee imagine if he directed it
but we aren't replicants
>Ford thinks hes human
>fancher thinks hes human
>philip k dick thinks he's human
Its pretty much only ridley scott pushing the replicant meme
He was already bleeding from the fall and from the explosion
yep, a man who hasn't had a creative shit this century.
Joe should have asked him if he was
Pretty much these. I don't want to believe Deckard is a replicant either but clearly the intention of 2049 is that he is supposed to be one
The intention was to keep the question unanswered...
Deckard never had super strength. K absorbed all his punches and Deckard just got tired and called the fight off.
The radiation scan said the radiation was Nominal where Deckard was. Even if it wasn't whos to say he didn't keep a large stash of radiation pills?
>Deckard binging on Prussian blue
I'm not sure it would be healthy in the long run
Why are people assuming replicants wouldnt be harmed by radiation? If a replicant is virtually indistinguishable from a humans - save for combat models which are more physically capable - then wouldnt radiation do the same harm to them as it does us?
What was up with the bees?
They make honey?
How with no flowers? Why even drag bees out there?
Because replicants are intended to help colonize space. Space is full of radiation.
Jupiter's magnetosphere is something like 18,000 times more radioactive than Earths.
Could be that Deckard was a special Nexus model that Tyrell made. We never saw Rachael get hurt either. There's also this theory that Tyrell created both of them to meet by chance and have a natural attraction towards one another with the goal of copulation.
Is Scott a hack?
Apparently some places use them as an air quality check and they can also detect some types of radiation
Bees can literally work as air filters and detect radiation, google it.
Processed him how?
Nexus 6 didn't have the eyeball number.
Are you retarded?
The Nexus 6 replicants (which Deckard would've been a part of, if he was a replicant), had a fixed lifespan of 4 years. If Deckard was a replicant:
1. He wouldn't have aged
2. He would've died already
Maybe he was Nexus 7
Scanned him , look for serial numbers on his bones, etc etc.
Yes. He stood on the shoulders of greater artists and took most of the credit for himself.
Their value in colonization comes from their expendable nature, not an immunity to radiation.
There were no Nexus 7s.
In the OG Blade Runner, there were Nexus-6 replicants and Rachel, who was an experimental replicant given implanted memories.
There's nothing to indicate why Tyrell would want a replicant with a 30-year lifespan.
He would have been a 7. Had to be reproduce. I don't believe it's said how long Rachael and Deckard had been alive. That is if he is, which I'd rather him not be.
What is a replicant? Is it an android or fake human?
But they all had implanted memories right? Only Rachel's were real
Both. An andoid with soft tissue instead of metal.
I see...
For what pvrpose?
To do bitch work
Rachel was a 6. Wallace's comment is in the film to suggest that if Tyrell created her to bear children then Deckard could just as easily be a necessary step for that plan, since it can be assumed that male replicants are inert as well.
Not robots, bio-engineered humans.
>He would have been a 7.
He's not. Remember, Tyrell specifically said Rachel was an experimental model. There was no Nexus-7 line. Nexus-7 would have been the Rachel prototype and Tyrell was killed by Roy Baty before he could mass-produce.
>>Had to be reproduce. I don't believe it's said how long Rachael and Deckard had been alive.
Regardless of how long he was alive in BR 1, he would have lived an additional 30 years by the time of BR 2. Rachel died w/in at childbirth in 2019 so she didn't last.
>>That is if he is, which I'd rather him not be.
He isn't. You can tell he isn't a replicant because he would've had the same or similar strength as Roy Baty or Leon or any of the other replicants in Blade Runner 1.
Rachael wasn't a Nexus series at all. She was a one of a kind, special-purpose experiment of Tyrell's
No. Tyrell tells Deckard in the first Blade Runner that Rachel's memories are an implant based on his niece.
Deckard then tells Rachel that her memories are fake when she comes to his apartment later.
Brian calls her a Nexus 6 in the briefing.
What I want to know is why does Jared Leto go on a long speech about how he needs more replicants and how he never has enough, then proceeds to kill that brand new replicant fresh out of the plastic bag
I've only scene the Final Cut, not any other release, nor have I seen 2049, but it seemed pretty clear to me that Deckard was a replicant.
All of that police guy with the moustache's origami implied that he knew what Deckard was thinking much in the same way Deckard knew what Rachael was thinking because he read about her preprogrammed memories in her file. Why else would he make an origami unicorn at such a highly significant time if not to send a message to Deckard? If someone can explain how the fedora dude knew about the significance of the unicorn to Deckard, then maybe I can accept the possibility that he's not a replicant, but otherwise, it seems pretty open-shut to me
I figure it was like an artist scrapping his sculpture, hes a perfectionist and she was flawed art.
an overt hint that he's human when taken with rachel ('s body) being shown with a flower
That was a new prototype, still didn't do what he needed it to so he killed it, probably to motivate Luv.
>which Deckard would've been a part of, if he was a replicant
Except there were other models apart from Nexus 6. Rachel was an N7.
Would honestly prefer it to the BRRRRM fest Nolan script we got.
it's certainly not 'open-shut' since Deckard is clearly a character for the audience to insert into, so while it's true that the story tries to open the question of what being human means it's still beyond doubt the audience is human so therefore Deckard should be.
but they aren't expendable since apparently it's extremely costly to produce them and they have to be made fertile. The colonization issues are all a major plothole though.
Nah fuck you.
The screenplay would be the same . It's actually a pretty great script ,but it has some
sloppy/ unnecessary elements. But the core is really really good. And there would be no changes to the script.
There was other great music besides BRRM.
After watching Alien Covenant and still thinking this you're just a dumb contrarian sorry.
Like someone said earlier, she is referred to as a Nexus 6. However, that might not be exactly 'true'
There were two writers. One was the original Blade Runner writer. He came up with the core. The other writers job was to tie in the movie to the original and flesh it out. I think there was one great writer and one mediocre writer.
>what it means to be human
>ask him
The thing that's really kinda bugging me is autists like Jay not getting that K is a replicant when he busts through concrete walls and shrugs off Luv's punches
so was deckard and rachael falling in love planned all along like wallace said? whose plan was that? tyrells?
