The 1982 film directed by Ridley Scott shows "just another day in 'Apocalypse Soon' LA, as the questions 'Why are we here?' and 'How long have we got?' echo in the electric smog," Kinn and Piazza write. "If you want to dig, there are plenty of messages beneath the surface. If you just want to sit back and immerse yourself in this visual feast, you won't need to understand a thing."
According to the BBC, Scott put an end to fan debate and confirmed that main character Deckard, played by Harrison Ford, is a replicant, or robot. Ford told Entertainment Weekly that he'd asked Scott about it during filming and that he "never got a straight answer."
