    CLIP DESCRIPTION:
    Roy (Rutger Hauer) speaks his final words to Deckard (Harrison Ford) before dying.
    FILM DESCRIPTION:
    In this futuristic science fiction drama, two firms are both on the working overtime to see who can be first to perfect a new and groundbreaking invention -- a technology that can perfectly recreate human tissue, allowing people to be replicated at will. One of the companies is a small, cutting-edge concern, while the other is a major multinational conglomerate, and in a world where such companies control the legal and judicial system (hey, are you sure this is science fiction?), beating them to the punch can have deadly consequences. The larger firm sends a team of thugs to destroy the smaller company's offices, just as inventor Ludo (Michael St. Gerard) is using himself as a guinea pig for his final tests on the replication system; things go haywire during the assault, and soon Ludo finds himself chasing his own manmade evil twin. Replikator also stars Ned Beatty, Brigitte Bako, and Ilona Staller, the latter better known as Cicciolina, the Italian adult film star who was elected to that nation's Parliament.

It’s literally the most universal human experience, being afraid to die, and we will all, no matter who you are, eventually be staring that fear in the eye one day, sooner than we expect in a lot of cases. It’s the most empathetic dialogue ever. I was here. I was a person. I’m scared.

    He had every intention of killing Deckard but in that last moment when Deckard is struggling to hold onto the railing, to hold onto 'life" Roy saves him because he values life so much at that moment and realizes how precious it is....even if it's the life of the man trying to kill him.

    • @holypoop88
      @holypoop88 4 года назад +234

      I don't think he had intentions to kill Decker in their final scenes together. Roy intentions were to instill fear in Decker with the chasing and the howling... Almost animalistic in a sense of predator vs prey. Roy was flipping the roles on Decker. Roy wanted Decker to experience the fear he has experienced being a replicant. "It's quite an experience to live in fear, isn't it. That's what it is like to be a slave (replicant)."
      The key difference between humans and replicants, and what defines humanity, is the showing of empathy and morals. Roy, throughout the final confrontation, points out Deckard's failings. He breaks his fingers for Pris and Zhora, and asks Deckard, "Proud of yourself, little man?". He taunts Decker's morals and integrity, "Not very sporting to fire on an unarmed opponent. I thought you were supposed to be good. Aren't you the 'good' man? C'mon, Deckard. Show me what you're made of."
      The most obvious reason Roy spared Deckard's life is to demonstrate that he understood the value of life more so than Decker, and also what it meant to be "good" better than Deckard, the supposed "good guy" of the story. By sparring Decker, maybe Roy hopes Decker will change his views on replicants and what it means to be human. That replicants, like humans, just want more time to experience life.

    I never stopped to think in this scene Roy is reminiscent of a war veteran. He's recounting all the battles he's fought on humanity's behalf, things humans would never experience. And with his passing all those experiences and memories would be lost forever. We have written history depicting World War 1, but the men that were there and experienced it first hand are gone now. It's powerful and sad.

    What's so beautiful about this scene isn't just that it's impeccably written, or masterfully acted, but how Roy Batty reinforces the entire theme of the story while also defeating Deckard philosophically by saving his life... all in the span of about 2 and a half minutes.
    Rather than letting Deckard fall, as a traditional antagonist would, Batty's ultimate defiance in the face of his death is an uncompromising display of his humanity. He dies, but philosophically, he is proven the victor. He, as a Replicant, *chooses* to save Deckard of his own free will. And then, to punctuate his benevolent display, spends his dying moments to regale Deckard with his lifetime of hurt -- his life of nothing other than devastation as his role of a Replicant destined him to follow. But these moments didn't rob Roy Batty of his humanity -- they defined it. These moments were real. And they made Roy Batty real as well.

The only way that they carry on is in the person who got the privilege of hearing these stories. It’s such a beautiful, terrible speech that has such a universal connection to all of us. The great fear of fading away and all of what we did disappearing forever into the past. I find myself coming back ti this speech many times and every year it becomes more poignant the older I get. I’m so great full I got to hear this speech and see this movie. It’s one of the rare films to truly reach across the decades and touch everyone. A masterpiece and a truly miraculous work that deserved far more than it got when it first came to the theatre. Brilliant is all I can say to describe this film.

    There so many reasons why I love this scene:
    - After talking with Tyrell and realizing his death was near, it seems to me that Roy changed his perspective from a quantitative to an qualitative. Clearly we see him valuing experience and memories rather extending his life. Also, killing Deckard would have been pointless anyway since he would die.
    - I love how it feels like a rebellion against his own creator. Especially since Tyrell told him that being a machine and stronger makes him more special than a human. Furthermore, he chose to spare a life rather than remaining true to his original design/programming.
    - The Christ imagery is gorgeous how its interwoven in the story. It makes sense how its "built" scene by scene and each "piece" makes sense. Even the white pidgeon almost felt like being a sign of piece before being shown with the impaled hand.
    - The fact that he values his own memories clearly shows that replicants are more human than initially thought. For Rachael, the implanted memories led to an identity/existential crisis, while for Roy, his own memories are clear signs of an individuality which makes him more a person/human
    - Roy with Tyrell feels like a darker Frankenstein - Monster story where Victor has 0 morality and just continued to create life indiscriminately. A great cautionary tale about how ethics and moral responsibility is crucial to scientific progress.

No collapsing buildings, huge explosions, Lord of the Rings type battles etc. I mean here, really, it's just a guy nearly falling from a rooftop and being helped up again. But the direction, the sounds, the music, the acting, the power... it's just... wow. Like even when two characters are just looking at each other and you have the tinkering Vangelis sounds in the background and beautiful camera angles. The whole film is immaculate.

      When I first saw the movie I was confused because, the way people talked about it, I thought it WAS going to be a big epic action movie. But something still intrigued me about it and the more times I watched it, the more I loved it. The thing is, there is something epic about it, but it is much more subtle then you would think. It's about what humanity is and our place in the world as an individual. It's kind of hard to explain I guess.

    The point of the scene wasn’t to teach Deckard about the value of life. But to address to the audience as what exactly makes us human. If Roy has memory, feelings, regret, loss, and life experience, then is he not as human as Deckard? The lesson was for the audience to value life, not Deckard.

Sure, he's most famous for Han Solo, but to me that's like kinda like Dwayne the Rock Johnson playing himself.

    "I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to die."
    The monologue as written in the script was:
    "I've seen things... seen things you little people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion bright as magnesium... I rode on the back decks of a blinker and watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those moments... they'll be gone."
    Rutger Hauer felt it was just "hi-tech speech" with no bearing on the rest of the film so he edited himself and added the tears in the rain line. Made an instant masterpiece of a monologue.

    I'm surprised no one's talking about the symbolism of the dove. He had a dove to symbolize he was at peace with everything in the end. He accepted his tragic fate of a short lifespan. In his 4 years, he learned a sobering truth--that we are all bound by our experiences. They are the limitations of our consciousness. Our memories die with us. We are tears in rain...

Showing that in the end he's just him being gripped from the chains of slavery , by a system that does not leave him way out, while he, as metaphorically symbolizes the dove ,he has found peace.

    Rest In Peace Rutger Hauer. According to Ripley Scott: The speech’s most enduring line came not from screenwriters Hampton Fancher or David Peoples but Hauer himself, who, by his own account, “took a knife to” a much lengthier soliloquy in the script. The sci-fi references to Orion and C-beams were from the text, but “tears in rain” was Hauer’s, and that, along with the dying light in Roy’s eyes, is what will endure.
