Thus raising one of the fascinating questions in the first movie: Is Deckard the good guy or the bad guy in this movie?
It’s a little like when I told a gal at work that I was rooting for the humans in “Avatar”. She looked at me like I’d just bitten the head off a kitten.
“Is Deckard the good guy or the bad guy in this movie?”
It’s all a bit of a gray area, isn’t it? You might think the replicants are just poor oppressed slaves trying to win their freedom, until they start brutalizing people who really had very little responsibility for their situation, even killing the one human who was voluntarily helping them for no reason.
Deckard is possibly a good guy in this movie but now must be seen as a bad guy in the first on since his role was that of a runaway slave hunter and he kills his own kind.
So much concern for artificial clones but no moral judgments over 50,000,000 aborted babies in America.
