| Plot |
Deckard, a blade runner, has to track down and terminate 4 replicants who hijacked a ship in space and have returned to earth seeking their maker. |
| Trivia | Dustin Hoffman was the original choice to play Deckard, although he wondered why he was asked to play a “macho character”. According to Ridley Scott, Hoffman was interested, but wanted to make it a whole different kind of character. According to Paul Sammon, apart from Hoffman, other actors considered for the role included Tommy Lee Jones, Gene Hackman, Sean Connery, Jack Nicholson, Paul Newman, Clint Eastwood, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Al Pacino, Burt Reynolds, William Devane, Raul Julia, Scott Glenn, Frederic Forrest, Robert Duvall, Judd Hirsch, Cliff Gorman, Peter Falk and Nick Nolte. |
| Goofs | Miscellaneous: A hand is visible on Batty’s shoulder while he is supposedly alone in the phone booth. This is because the shot of him looking up and smiling is a flipped shot from later in the film when he meets Tyrell, just prior to saying “Nothing the god of biomechanics wouldn’t let you into heaven for” (corrected in the 2007 “Final Cut” of the movie; the hand has been digitally removed). |
