I personally think this deserves it's own thread, so I might do it later.

Has anyone ever noticed how much Blade Runner has been ripped off and paid homage to?

Example:

Blade Runner:

Event Horizon:

I can't blame anybody for ripping it off. It was one of many great stylistic elements in the film.

Fifth Element borrowed so much from it, that it was almost comical, but it was a good film.

Blade Runner was a grand achievement. As an aspiring film director, I can see why someone would like to take some from it.
