Maybe one of you can explain to me the answers to these questions cause despite seeing the film like a dozen times and I think I've seen all the editions(maybe I'm wrong) Im missing out on the answers

1.Why exactly did captain Bryant need deckard to find the replicants for the main plot of the movie, I didn't see deckard possess some unique set of skills that made him only so he could do the job, I felt anyone on that police squad could have done it, whatever the reason it was enough for Bryant to threaten deckard despite being friends.

2.Why does Roy howl like a wolf when he is chasing deckard at end of film?, is that supposed to be him acting like a wolf chasing prey?

3.Why does Roy strip down to only his boxers in that scene as well?

4.Why does he shove a nail through his hand?

5.Why does pris when she attacks deckard scream all weird(before she is shot) and furthermore why does she let him go, she had him right where she wants him.

6.Why is it when pris puts her hand in hot boiling water she feels nothing and even her skin is intact yet Roy pushes a nail through his hand and feels pain and is bleeding?

7.This might be the most controversial question but what exactly is it about the tears in rain speech so many people just love and say is one of the greatest piece of speeches in cinema history, I don't get what is so great about it and I've heard it a dozen times, idk if just a lot of people happen to really like that speech or if there is some deeper meaning I'm not getting

8.Also why did Roy save deckard anyway, I understand he felt perhaps guilt over some stuff he did and wanted atonement but the guy killed his creator and friend two innocent people but was willing to let the guy who killed one lady friend, his girlfriend and I'm sure in his eyes partially responsible for Leon's death as well and could potentially kill all future replicants, it just didn't really add up to me and I like redemption arcs but I never got the motivation with him.

Hello, I'm Unbound Beartic, I'm a movie critic. I'm into Science Fiction, Fantasy, Dystopian, Cyberpunk and AI Uprising Movies and Series. I've heard that Blade Runner is a great franchise with decent substance about AI Uprising, Consumerism and is Sci-Fi Masterpiece. Honestly, I love movies with this kind of Substance. I'm a huge fan of Terminator, The Wachowskis and many others.

However, I was disappointed when I saw both the Blade Runner Movies. They're both complete trash. The series is by far the worst Film Franchise I've ever seen.

First of all it's a terrible inaccurate and poorly designed adaptation of the book. It's unrecognizable to the source material. So why is anyone a fan of the films and content based on them. I don't see how anyone could care enough about the films to ever watch either of them for a second time. The Writing is really bad, The characters are poorly written. The acting is so wooden and fake. The action scenes of the second film suck. I'll admit I liked a couple shots in the end of the first one but it makes no sense that Roy's timer ends right during the climax of the film that's so poorly executed. The Execution of the series is terrible.

The plot is the biggest chunk of garbage I've ever scene. There is no setup, no payoff, no goals, no stakes, no urge. Both of the plots are worthless, Also the second film has the worst pacing I've ever seen. It's the Number 1 worst paced movie I've ever seen. And the story and plot does not make up for the 2 hour and 40 minute runtime at all. The plot of the film could barely take up a 70 minute film.

The Philosophy and themes are not good enough to warrant a decent franchise. I'd expect better from two cult classics with over 80 percent on Rotten Tomatoes and over 8.0 on imdb.com. I'm very confused that the internet is this gullible somebody please explain why they don't hate this film series.

I am curious: Has there ever been lost media involved in this franchise, like a lost movie, a promotional video or photo, or a lost script, something like that?

I'm not sure if this has been done before but I'm new to this so I'm sorry if I'm going over old ground. What do you think everyday life would be like for those who are left behind on Earth and what would it be like for those living off world? I'm particularly fascinated by the lives of those still on Earth. Any thoughts?

I'm starting to see some stuff from the RPG out and about. From what I can tell, the VR game Revelations now has a canon ending (two NPCs in the RPG die in one of the Revelations endings) and might be retconned from 2023 to 2022. Going to wait and see if more info is included in the full release to make any edits to that date on the Wiki. It might be getting a lot of retconning done to it since it's not even available anymore. Also the 1997 game is acknowledged!

There's an NPC or two that suggest connections to the Jeter novels... we'll see how that pans out.

Not sure if anyone else will participate, so I'll let this thread suffice for the whole series rather than issue-by-issue (though expect to see my thoughts for each issue).

So the first issue... I'm not really feeling it, honestly. The setting is the biggest departure from previous Blade Runner stories and I'm not a huge fan of the art style compared to that of 2019/2029 and Origins.

Who knows, maybe I'll like it after re-reading it for editing purposes over the next few days. Or maybe the second issue will get me.

Regardless of whether I like it or not, at least this issue wasn't just a re-telling of the anime.
