Some sexist nonsense as far as I can tell.
That's a good giveaway he's human as a robot would never possibly use that language ...or would it/he/she ?

Watched it at the weekend and it was good.
The Gosling is a bad actor though, could have replaced him with a balloon with a face painted on it.![]()

This is true. Both points.I thought playing a replicant was an ideal fit for his acting style, namely imitating a cardboard cutout of himself.
Leto's scenery-chewing by contrast was the low point of the movie.
This is true. Both points.
Leto's scenes are the only thing that lets this work down. I don't know who to blame though. The actor or the director.
I'm reminded of the Charles Dance scene in Game of Thrones where he is explaining the facts of life whilst skinning a deer. Powerful in the book but omg even more powerful the way Dance delivers it.The bit with him murdering the new replicant was a bit much. It's already clear at that point that we're dealing with a mad bastard, but up until that moment he's a mad bastard explaining the rational basis for his actions. Then he does something completely pointless and irrational. Bad writing IMO.

I think they were trying to do something similar but failed spectacularly. Then failed again by not leaving it on the cutting room floor.

What put me off is that he's supposedly a bellend and sex pest in real life. And his shit band.

So what, though? That’s not a reason.I thought he was trying to create one that could give birth.
Yes it is.So what, though? That’s not a reason.
It wasn't the reason for that brutality.Yes it is.
Wallace is trying to make replicants that can have babies. That one couldn't have babies.It wasn't the reason for that brutality.
She didn't meet his subjective criteria of perfection was his stated rational.
We were supposed to surmise that its actually just because he is a twisted fuck not his rationalisation (cause there was nothing wrong with her).
We are also meant to be disturbed by his assistant's distinct lack of giving a shit that he just killed her.
It was just a new model. As in new facial features.Wallace is trying to make replicants that can have babies. That one couldn't have babies.
Yeah she's like here's a new model we made, good init.New facial features? He killed her by cutting her womb after examining her. He makes a speech about needing replicant babies.
That's why he uses his little science flying machines to examine her...It's not like you can see just by looking at a womb...

Indeed. You could argue it was perfect casting in the same way Keanu Reeves was perfect to play Neo in The Matrix.
Do it in anime.I wish they'd do a prequel to Bladerruner - I reckon the story about how the replicants made it back to earth would make a great story. Trouble is how could you replace Rutger Hauer as Batty?
