Yes, Deckard being a human is thematically important. But so is raising the question of whether he might be a replicant.
Also, is there not a dedicated Blade Runner thread?
There have been a few Blade Runner threads on here over the years - this is one of most recent/relevant threads from the ‘Off Topic’ section:-
http://originaltrilogy.com/topic/Blade-Runner-Versions/id/47837/page/1
Can we not use this thread to bitch about the new movies, please?
Spot on doubleofive.
Let’s stay on topic of the thread title and first post.
Nice one and thank you 😃

'Interesting idea. I’m a proponent of incorporating Dooku into TPM as well. I’m no editor, but it seems to me the simplest way to do so (not to mention the way that would least contradict existing canon) would be to add a brief scene of him watching Qui-Gon’s funeral. You could either edit the back of his head into the foreground of an exterior shot of the temple, to have him back on Naboo but keeping his distance from the Jedi, or the AOTC footage (including one of the deleted scenes) of him sitting at the conference table could be repurposed into him watching a hologram of the funeral.
Throw in a line or two spiced together from Dooku and Saruman dialogue – vaguely talking about going to war, “the Republic cannot be fixed,” or something to that effect – and the result could be really cool.’
Cameron and Miller discuss further details from the reboot.
Thanks for posting that - a quality watch and re-assuring to see how they have both approached this new film.
Looking forward to seeing more about it - and eventually the film itself 😃
Nice one - a BD-25 just in time for this weekend to watch with a few visiting mates.

There are a few rare (and claimed ‘never seen before’) pictures of Carrie Fisher from behind the scenes of Empire Strikes Back here (and a few items for sale at an upcoming auction):-

From the I haven’t watched Empire in 20 years file; I don’t even remember Treat Williams being in the movie. Some nice pictures of Carrie for sure. It’s always nice to be reminded of how beautiful she was. It will be strange watching her last film two months from now.
I think there’ll likely be a fair few of us with ‘some dust or something in my eye’ when we see her in that film.
Anybody stop to think what this society would look like if we banned all the characters who have nasty contempt for those citizens who support the Second Amendment in letter and Spirit?
If those nasty creeps had to live in a world where the values of the US and it’s Constitution were completely destroyed, after 5 minutes they’d be screaming and begging to go back to the world of those evil conservatives who deserve to SUFFER and DDDIIIIIEEEEEEE!!!
You can explain your thoughts a lot better - and with more clarity - than you are currently doing.
Stop the trolling and inflammatory nature, generalisations and stereotypes in your posts.
This is your last warning.
It may be an idea to let members on here know that they’ll have to ask permission (or sign in) to be able to access your list of fan edit ideas in the first post.
It’d also be cool if you list an overview of the Fan Edits ideas you have in there too.
Play nice, please lads.

and now this post is over… (on an open field, Ned 😃)
Already posted.
Pay attention to what you’re doing!
Ahh missed that. Cut me some slack though guys. Im overcoming a death in the family
On a 12 page thread full of one-liners I’m sure there has been, and will be, many a repeat 😃
Don’t even sweat it mate.
The picture posted by Haseo, and then later re-posted by him, has now been removed.
This fake outrage shit is crazy. I’m glad that it’s on the way out
Factually, the only crazy shit today has come from you - please remember that on your way out.
The meme doesn’t have any slurs in it whatsoever…Just being vile in nature isn’t against the rules and the only reason I took the photo down was because you were uncomfortable. Please refrain from bringing personal feelings into factual matters because God knows we have enough of that going around these days.
No, I was not uncomfortable - I asked you to take it down as it may well be in violation of the forum rules.
There are no personal feelings in this factual matter.
I recommend you have read the rules again, re-read your posts, and have a think, possibly have a few minutes away from your computer, before your next reply.
The closest I ever came was with Erasure. I had every album from the beginning up to Union Street, minus The Two Ring Circus, on CD. After that, I just stopped collecting albums of anything and periodically downloaded individual songs. I’ve had several other albums from other artists, but nothing approaching completion like that.
Aye, Sometimes, there just seems a time to Stop collecting, whilst keeping that A Little Respect… Always have a soft spot for them though…
(I’m sorry 😃)
No mate - could you remove that image please?
That could easily be construed as a slur based on race/ethnicity/religion… and it’s not befitting of this thread, the whole forum, or yourself.
If you feel that strongly about it then sure. Still funny though 😃
I don’t know what it is because like asteroids things like that do not concern me any longer. What I can say is that child rape, goat rape and Muslims are all topics that can get people hot so I chose to relent.

Nobody comes to this site to hear about what turns you on. Keep it to your porn forums.
Well excuse me for thinking that the last four years might have been enough time to build enough intimacy that would warrant me sharing my fetishes.
I strongly suggest reading the Rules & Guidelines before posting further:-
and consider this - if you post a picture of a similar nature again, to the one you posted earlier today, you will be banned.

In related news, was Darth Solo’s daughter among the victims?
Not cool.
Instead of making witless posts about someone who is banned and has no recourse - at a time where people may be waking up to that news from Las Vegas and have concerns for loved ones, friends and family - so I suggest you delete your tasteless post or apologise - right now.
The same applies for anyone else thinking of posting similar statements - don’t.

Cracking finds TK-949 - nice one 😃
I went with the name Anakin instead of Ender (my usual name) to avoid confusion with Darth Ender, but have come to regret my decision. It won’t let me make a new account with the same email, so is there a way to change my username? Otherwise, I’ll have to change my email on this account to free up my real one for a new account.
PM sent.
Does he seriously think anybody in PR can read his tweets right now?
https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/914216744385904640
I’m not too sure based on his words and actions so far… that he gives a lot of thought on what is actually happening in Puerto Rico - and his tweets were likely made in between concentrating on holes on the golf course (again).
Kodi Gaddis ((https://twitter.com/KodiGaddis)) sums things up pretty well in his tweet replies to Trump…
‘They are not believing the fake news since they don’t have power.’
‘You’d know that if you went to help them.’
‘They are seeing people that NEED water.’
‘That NEED food.’
‘That NEED medical.’
‘That are begging for help.’
‘That don’t want to die.’
‘And you are sitting here tweeting about the “media?”’
‘Get over yourself, man’
‘Kilian Eng’ is well worth an image search for his work - there are a few riffs on that picture above - as well as some for Star Wars, and a few other sci-fi films too 😃
On a different note…
