Surely the Tyrell Corporation has the technology to make their skin green or whatever.

    maybe Tyrell wants his products to look as human as possible

      Then it's up to the government, who buys Replicants from Tyrell (since they're using them to colonize Mars) to tell Tyrell to make them recognizable.

      slaves are indistinguishable from people too

      Slaves aren't made in laboratories

          Government makes the law.
          All it takes is a law saying replicants need to be recognizable at first glance.

            A law needs to be passed, you would never convince a senate to pass this if it meant Tyrell would stop doing business with them.

            Do you genuinely think that the same entity responsible for rounding up drunks and writing parking tickets is the one orchestrating space travel and colonization? There's a reason the corps are able to run roughshod over everyone. Attempt reading comprehension in the future.

    No idea what that is.
    Anyway the whole point is that inhuman actions can lead to becoming inhuman emotionally and spiritually. The androids are a completely inhuman monster, totally psychopathic in thought and deed and example of the path a lack of vigilance will lead you down.

      I mean it's one of the biggest themes you can go with when dealing with replicants and is present in the first movie. Uprising can be based, anon. Especially in a world that's clearly dying from globohomosexual agenda like Bladerunners is.

        So why would Deckard be a Replicant then? The only evidence of it is the unicorn thing.
        In the book he's not a Replicant btw.

      It never made sense to me - and you're right, the first movie is vague, especially with the different cuts, but why go to the charade of having the cops pretend he's human and has a past with them, is a better model than Tyrell's best version Racheal, make him a drunk?
      I mean, I get it. Scott changed his mind after it was too late, and reconned his ass off to make it work, especially with the sequel, but it's never made any sense to me. But it's too late now, it is what it is.

    From the confrontation between Roy and Tyrell it is established that changing the way the Replicants are made is really, REALLY difficult. I guess once all the work was done and they were about to hit production, somebody said "hey, how are we going to tell these guys from real humans?", and all the science people were "whoopsie, tough luck, we are NOT redoing everything".

      The girl had her tonsils taken out and took a pic of it to post on reddit. Stopped using that reddit account back in 2020.
      Imho, even if dude's a manlet, he shouldn't have to be with a less hot woman. But that's what us men have to do if we're not gigachads.
