In 1982, it was Dick who died. Scott used such a classic to comfort the master's departure.

It can be said that this film created a complete classic cyberpunk world on the basis of Dick's original work. In less than two hours of film Contains too many rich details - the post-nuclear world, chaotic Los Angeles, dark and fire-breathing cities, huge steel buildings, non-stop rain, Chinatown, monotonous electronic billboards, flying propaganda airships , the sturdy gene company Taylor, electronic animal stores, Asian food stalls, ubiquitous Chinese graffiti, flying gas cars, dangerous replicators, genetic engineers... Such a complete structure makes people feel that a film expresses It's stretched thin, and it would be much easier if I could release the last two or three films like Matrix, but Westwood's 1997 game of the same name is a little compensation for die-hard movie fans
(this is the game that I first came into contact with)

Not only the structure The plot is perfect, and the plot is even more exaggerated than the original. The replicant with only four years of life returns to the earth to seek immortality. Song, a game of chess between Tyler, the boss of the gene company, and the engineer Kubach became his own funeral, especially in the director's cut version of 1992, the "sympathy" suddenly inspired by the replicator Roy Batty before his death is simply the history of science fiction. The most unforgettable scene, along with the sentence: it is tiame to die, batty closed his eyes in the heavy rain... The unparalleled imagery and performance in the film, these changes made the whole film rise from the original allegory theme to the bewitched. The realm of maddening infatuation by the audience.

This film can be said to have surpassed the entire era at that time. His precociousness was also doomed to the fate of the box office fiasco that year. However, all the themes about CP in the following 20 years have traces of blade runner, and they are incomparable. imitation.

Scott said it was the pinnacle of his life that he couldn't surpass. We have long since moved away from the era when the cyberpunk movement was a pioneer experience, but for those things in the West, it is never too late to enter China, they are all pioneers, as long as they are the first, as long as they are after There are no imitated texts in the modern land. . . . As long as it remains in the minority, it's still an intention worth chasing.
