Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What story is 'Blade Runner' based on?

Answer: 'Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?'

In a sci-fi world where almost all life forms are extinct, animals are android imitations owned only by the rich in this dreary future.

2. Who wrote the story that 'Blade Runner' was based on?

Answer: Philip K. Dick

Phil didn't want this movie to be made, and was troublesome...until he saw a rough print. He then claimed that it seemed as if someone had gotten the images directly from his mind! He died just before the film's theatrical release.

3. What is the Tyrell Corporation's motto?

Answer: 'More Human Than Human'

Yes, even Rob Zombie saw this movie!

4. What was Harrison Ford's character's name?

Answer: Rick Deckard

This is Harrison's least favorite role, but many believe it to be his best.

5. What are the androids officially called in this movie?

Answer: Replicants

'Skin Job' was a rather unflattering slang term for a replicant, the equivalent of a very bad word. 'Retirement' was the term they used to describe the unwilling demise (destruction) of a replicant.

6. In what city and in what year did this story take place?

Answer: Los Angeles, 2019

In the short story, the city was San Francisco. The year 2020 was nixed because of the similarity to the television news show of the same name.

7. Who was the director of 'Blade Runner'?

Answer: Ridley Scott

8. What element of the original film was most notably missing from the 'Director's Cut' version of this film?

Answer: The narration

The European print had a more graphic, blood-spurting eye-gouging scene. The biggest thing missing was Harrison's deadpan 'film noir'-style narration that was heard over the entire film. Ridley Scott felt that it was too boring, and that the audience was smart enough to do without it.

9. What actor played Roy Batty?

Answer: Rutger Hauer

His best film ever. Rent a Dutch film called 'Soldier of Orange' to see him rival this performance...or 'Ladyhawke', if you don't mind the bad soundtrack!

10. TOUGH ONE! What was Pris' 'incept date'?

Answer: February 14, 2016

Valentine's Day. She was a standard military-leisure model, after all! January 18 is {Roy's;} April 10 is {Leon's;} and June 12 is Zhora's, FYI.

11. From what disease does J.F. Sebastian suffer?

Answer: Methuselah Syndrome

J.F. is only 25, but he looks 50. Pris describes the condition informally as 'accelerated decreptitude', and identifies with the human because of her own short life span.

12. How long are replicants expected to live?

Answer: 4 years

They are built stronger and smarter than humans, so the brief four-year stint makes it a little less easy for them to become too big for their britches, so to speak.

13. What does the Nexus 6 series have that previous incarnations of replicants did not?

Answer: Memories

Made to be able to develop emotional responses, Tyrell implanted the Series 6 replicants with fake memories of childhoods they never had, complete with fake family photographs. This did not sit well with the group...

14. What is the name of the machine that measures the dilation of pupils in response to being asked a series of questions?

Answer: Voigt-Kampff

Also supposedly tested for the scents rising from the body under stress. These replicants were designed so realistically that it took over a hundred questions to MAYBE figure out that they weren't human. Leon wasn't too happy to be asked about his mother.

15. In a 2001 documentary entitled 'On the Edge of 'Blade 'Runner', what confession did Ridley Scott finally make, much to the happiness and anger of various folks?

Answer: 'Deckard is a replicant.'

This was a biggie, since that question has been debated for years. Upon hearing this, Harrison Ford mentioned (I'm paraphrasing here) that he wished someone would have told him, and he was obviously in a different film than the rest of the cast. Ouch!
