Blade Runner: Difference between revisions

* [[Hand Cannon]]: [http://www.imfdb.org/wiki/Blade_Runner#LAPD_2019_blaster Deckard's handgun] seems to fire explosive shells. It certainly makes pretty big holes in walls during his fight with Roy in the hotel. Its components include a bolt-action .222 rifle and a Charter Arms Bulldog revolver. So it's basically a huge single shot rifle in the shape of a pistol.

* [[Haunted House]]: The Bradbury Building is an extremely uninviting place at the best of times. When Roy Batty is somewhere inside howling like a wolf is very very far from the best of times.

* [[Industrial Ghetto]]: The city as a whole.

* [[Insistent Terminology]]: From the opening text crawl: ''"It Was Not Called Execution. It Was Called [[Deadly Euphemism|Retirement]]."''

* [[Smug Snake]]: Gaff. So very much. Possibly Holden too.

* [[Snakes Are Sexy]]: "Ladies and gentlemen... Taffey Lewis presents... Miss Salome and the snake. Watch her take the pleasures from the serpent... that once corrupted man."

* [[Stealth Mentor]]: Gaff, in the Westwood Studio's [[Video Game]].

* [[Stock Footage]]: Not quite "stock", but reused. At one point, a computer displays a clip from ''[[Alien]]'', and more noticeably, the original theatrical ending was {{spoiler|actually one of the alternate opening credits sequences for ''[[The Shining]]''}}.
