You are only looking at this from the vantage point of someone that wouldn't WANT to place a ticking time bomb (or something?) in the police force.
Sure but then we're getting into crazy what if scenarios. I don't remember Tyrell mentioning he wanted or did do that. Maybe I missed that part.
Yeah my take is that they went "crazy" because one of the few emotions they had was the panic of impending death. That's enough to make anyone go crazy.
But they built in the failsafe because of the instability. The instability was there before they limited their lifespan.
I'm not suggesting that there is something we missed, but it's certainly possible. Perhaps Decker is not human made, or made for motives that are not on par with who we see as the "good guys" in the film.
But none of that was hinted at or alluded to in any part of the film. So how could any one make the leap to "he's a replicant?"
in the director's cut, they showed him dreaming about unicorns, IIRC- then "too bad she won't live" detective leaves an origami unicorn at his door, sim to what he did with Rachel... again, IIRC. I think there were a couple of other hints in the director's cut... but not in the original cut.
Flimsy. Even on an artistic level. I get the big reveal is shocking but there's little to no build up to it and logistically goes against the basic premise of why they retire the replicants.
That's pretty much what I took it for. Which is why I think of it as a pretty good sci fi movie but not some classic.
Most of the movie is dialog. The action scenes really are not that big a part of the movie except the final scene which is awesome.
Your recollections are correct I believe.
i question the validity of this test.
