Is Deckard a replicant or Human?

strawpoll.me/14328910

Deckard isn't a repli-

That is the only time in the movie when that happens, and even then its just a flicker, whereas the replicants are constant.

...

he is a human

In the first Blade Runner it was 50/50, in BR49 he's obviously human, mainly due to Harrison Ford not giving a shit enough to act like an aspie

production error. used to light up her eyes in that scene, he was just looking towards the same reflective object

didnt he stay in a radiated area in 2049?

save. there were fucking bees there. how dense can you bee?

Why'd it have to be bees? I hate bees

They were resistent replicant bees dude

He's a character in a piece of shit movie

Idk man did the bees dream about unicorns?

-cant

>production error
>in the movie where its director keeps spoiling the ambiguity of his movie and never fails a beat in various interviews to keep preaching that he thinks Deckerd is a replicant

don't think so tim

I know that you play at the fact that most animals in BR are artificial like Rachel's owl, but the bees were the real deal. just like the wood Deckard carved. It's symbolic for his character.

he never intended that though. He only spouted it after hearing the theory. No one else involved (writers and producers) said he was a rep. Also the unicorn scene was added later too

It is only much later, like two decades later that Ridley Scott - who is a senile and demented, pants shitting alzheimer fuck these days got inspired about the never ending discourse about Deckard's identiy and started to babble that shit. Conincidently he then went out and made Prometheus and Covenant, thinking he created his own 2001. Now he loves to talk about 2deep4u shit and shamalamadingdong tier tweeeests.
If you weren't such a disgusting newfag Redditor you would know that BR's screenwriter, Philip K. Dick himself and Harrison Ford all saw Deckard as human.

>both the character and the actor dont know the truth about their own nature

pottery, riddick is a genius

>He only spouted it after hearing the theory.

bitch please, people on set were having discussions with him then and there whether he was replicant or not. Many disagreed with him, alongside Hauer, and not even Harrison seems to agree. He only added that scene because he could, because he wanted to force his opinion down on everyone's throat

Shit even in the original BR the chance was like like 70/30 toward being human

Many things in the movie point toward Deckard being humann rather than being replicant. Every replicant in the movie has very obvious unnatural emotional behavior and Ridley Scott went out of his way to make that obvious. Even Rachel, the most advanced replicant, was subtly off in the plain eye of the viewer during her VK test despite having the whole memory implant thing. Meanwhile, there’s no strange behavior for Deckard at all. Tyrell heavily suggested that memory implant is an new experiment procedure done for Rachael so it would be strange for Deckard to already have the same thing as a replicant.

have a bump op

Making him a replicant take more from the human than add, so I say human.

that was just retroactive shitty fanfiction by the director

literally this

It doesn't matter if he is human or replicant. He will always be better off in the Bladerunner world than if he was female

did no one read the book, or are we just ignoring the source material here?

Though it was initially a point of ambiguity in the book, he passed the replicant test given by another blade runner. PK Dick always meant him to be human, the ambiguity was short-lived and served more as an internal-crisis of Deckard to expand and give his character more depth than as a plot device of some sort.

YAAAAAAAS

Scott literally made some fanfiction years later

>Men are smashed through walls, shot, exploded, etc...
But I guess that's like every movie

Reminder that the unicorn sequence was not from Legend and was always intended to be in Blade Runner, and with the unicorn sequence in the film as intended, there's absolutely no ambiguity; he's a replicant.

Cry more, pussies.

Him being a replicant makes the BR2049 plot contrived and stupid.

in the novel, he is supposed to be a real human bean, as well as in the theatrical release.

the whole point of his character was, that although being human, he was so desensitized by his work that he had no human qualities about him, thus making him an "android" (person without empathy or feelings, only concerned with his own desires).

>PK Dick always meant him to be human, the ambiguity was short-lived and served more as an internal-crisis of Deckard to expand and give his character more depth than as a plot device of some sort.
yes, but it kind of does the opposite, if he is human and learns that life comprehends more than he thought, he has sort of grown, he feels conflicted about killing those that he was trying to convince himself were only walking washingmachines

if he just cares about replifags because he is one, but wouldn't give a shit otherwise, that's not growth, that's just being a self-centered asshole

Not canon.

>implying he didn't see an actual unicorn as a human child and learned about the realm of fairies being real and how technology has destroyed it, and humans are a plague
it's perfectly clear in the movie

He is

He's definitely a replicant

hackley scott BTFO

He's not a replicant you fucking retards

He isn't a replicant because that completely ruins the ironic contrast between himself and Roy. Deckard is an unfeeling, expressionless drudge who hunts and kills skinjobs without remorse, while Roy (the robot) lives far more intensely and passionately in his brief lifespan than Deckard ever did.

That said, I do like the fact that the ambiguity of Deckard remains in 2049, not that they make any suggestion that he is a replicant, just that they don't feel the need to make a definitive answer.

Yes he is the unicorn proves it

Nobody gives a shit about your faggy books Dexter

Scott clearly pushes that he is a replicant in the final cut, it almost objectively makes the character arcs of Roy and Deckard weaker so I just ignore it and assume Deckard is human.
