Whereas I saw Blade Runner for the first time eons ago, as a kid, when it was originally released, and then again and again, especially once the director's cut (which famously removed Ford's voice-over and the false ending, both studio additions) made the big screen.
ahhhh.
also, tell about the false ending! others have mentioned it...the end in the version I have is the closing of the elevator door.
Minority Report
Wasn't that more P.Dick influenced than anything else? ;D
(As with Chiana in Farscape who had her look obviously modelled on Pris in Blade Runner,
ahhhhhh
The love scene: Ridley Scott famously commented that it turned out to be a hate scene, because Harrison Ford just couldn't stand Sean Young (and vice versa), and that showed. In any case, as one of the points makes that the most intent feelings are shown by the artificial beings, and between them (Roy and Pris come to mind), it works.
Watched the entire sequence with the sound totally off (instead of low) and keeping in mind the dialogue, and I think I can see what you mean...however the background music just totally threw me off the first time I saw it, I just ended up laughing and groaning through most of that sequence. (it was produced a year before I was born, so that probably has something to do with it ::wry grin::)
