AGB, the reason why people think Deckard could be a replicant is when Gaff folds that little paper unicorn at the end and Deckard sees it.... Deckard has dreamed earlier about unicorns so it implies that Gaff knew what Deckard had dreamed, and hence the dream was an implanted memory, and as such Deckard was a replicant.

I think Blade Runner is a really interesting movie when you really start to think about it... it can have so many different meanings, and poses some really pertinent questions about humanity and the value of life....

well that's the thing, there is also evidence pointing to him NOT being a replicant... I think it's left slightly open (than the alternate ending, if you've read about that).

Yeah I know, there is no clear cut way of interpreting the ending... it's one of the great ambiguities of the film, and it's one of the most interesting things about it...

 

[abdooooo!!!]

yeah there is this other part where Racheal asked Deckard whether he ever took the test... there was no answer.

Agreed.

This is especially so when compared to the original 1982 version, which had an ending not only depicting Deckard and Rachel escaping Los Angeles, but the revelation that Rachel was one of a kind, she had no termination date, so that they may live happily ever after. Scott was adamantly against this ending, and this was a major factor towards releasing the 'Directors Cut'. Its also an interesting point to bring up when discussing changing context, how the Directors Cut, released a mere decade following the original, reflects changing perspectives, and presents an altogether more ambigious ending.

Pfft.. who cares what the director says

Just kidding - I believe that now the movie is out there, its interpretation is left to the viewer and their own personal attitudes.
