    I absolutely agree with you. But I did feel like it let me have my cake and eat it, too. It had a Thing-like quality- if what makes someone human is so ephemeral, that anyone could be a replicant… it added a quality for me.

    I felt like we were meant to sympathize with Deckard. I certainly did, and I was a little girl when I first saw it! And when those same questions came turning back toward the person who was standing in for the audience, it really drove that point home, that in this world, even I could be a replicant. And at what point, then, did I have the right to arbitrate what is and is not life?

    I love it both ways. But I am both extremely indecisive and bisexual so I guess this is no surprise.
