The hollywood difference The director's cut is far, far better. Listening to Deckard's amazingly borish narration ruins the mystique entirely. The happy ending inserted in the original is typical of how hollywood butchers something perfectly grand because it doesn't wrap up everything in a tidy cliched package. One of the best features of the film is the startling ending.
Tomorrow is a buffered aspirin, a gentle distraction for those in denial Who is this dark mechanical woman, this pretty girl wearing heavy makeup? Trouble, nothing but. On the cellular level, there are forces at work. Out to get him, they will. He tries to be a good man. And the rich and the numbed work very hard to ruin this earth with their pathologies, hiding behind the translucent screen of God and science and high ideals. Lies and deceit, death and destruction always follow their speeches of duty and glory and the smallest of hope for brighter days. But, tomorrow is a buffered aspirin, a gentle distraction for those in denial, and who have nothing, and are nothing. He sees what's going on and almost gets his eyes poked out. Time is on his side, however, and he rescues the mechanical woman from itself and remains the hero in his own mind when no one is watching. Directors Cut is not worth watching anymore I should have come here first to see some of the reviews of the Directors Cut. I never would have bought my copy. Without the naration by "Deckard" it is completly useless AFAIC. The voice over gave insight into what was happening that is not revealed by just watching the movie. And now in the movie where Deckard used to be narating, it's just silence. What's the point. I only watched about 10 minutes of the Director's Cut version and then I shut it off.
Blade Runner used to be one of my favorite movies. I would have put it as a 5 Star rating in the original version. I will never watch it as the Directors Cut. I hope to be able to find an original copy.
I hope Ridley Scott doesn't ruin Alien or Aliens like he did Blade Runner.
