Blade Runner's ending is the best! It's not a simple hero kills everyone. The movie ends with the antagonist overpowering the hero but remained the better person by not killing Deckard, but instead relaying a replicant's very human-like thoughts to Deckard, to us.. I was really really impressed by this scene
Knowing how well the ending turned out, it's crazy to believe the original script ended with Deckard just shooting them.
That's why it is non-sensical that Deckard suppose to be (according to Sir Ridley Scott himself) a replicant. It's licvidating the whole point of the "rain monologue", as that scene is about Deckard being changed by a dying androids last moments.
Always saw Decker as the bad guy, and after Roy saves him & watching Roys death, restores Deckers lost humanity.
He is more of a soulless guy, who is too much into his work. But it is like a necessity in his work, to be cold and not attaching any feelings to synthetics, to be more sufficient "terminator", but in this film of course he is changing, and changes his mind about them.
Also broke the mould that the hero vanquishes the villain instead the villain saves the hero.
“never to be seen again for a few scenes” this is genius
very romantic sexual assault lol
Edward James Almost
Im starting to think that with each episode, Mr. Wormuloid is losing his grip on sanity as his marriage sinks deeper and deeper.
+Thazer, The Lore Master One thing is for certain, they ran out of original and creative ideas long time ago. This weak shit is just simply pandering to morons.
I'm down for some Wormuloid vlog, even though it doesn't have anything to do with cinema
+rdecredico ho ho slow down, marriage jokes are mostly funny. If you are married..
Thazer, The Lore Master ja ja
Nothing about the scene where the replicant is used as Christ symbol? The dove, the nail in the hand, looking for his creator/father and asking for more time, saving the men (Harrison Ford) from falling?
@@JacobShodin it's funny you sow the move 33 times and 33 is the year that Christ died not only that isaac was 33 when Abraham took him to sacrifice!
Dont think I've actually seen it that many times not sure why that number popped into my head 3 years ago. I have learned so much about 33 since then.
Alejandro Schroeder or when Zhora is shot, the marks in her body resemble to removed wings
big reach there, i also dont see how replicants as a Christ symbol does anything to enrich or compliment the story and its themes
There is an essay on christian meaning in blade runner. And its' the final level of lecture of that movie, the deepest and most fascinating. Even if I disagree with part of Dan Newland essay, some symbols are too obvious. In addition to his findings, we may wonder
- why is Rachel named Rachel, and not Margareth ?
- why is Tyrel corporation a pyramid and not a skycrapper ?
i'm a replicant and i find the term Terminator very racist and offending
Get a grip man
+Erotic Potato Lighten up, Francis
+Erotic Potato chill out, dickwad
Who cares, you're a frakking toaster.
+Erotic Potato Yea, only replicants can call each other the T-word.
You're reviews give me both hysterical laughter and deep insight into the films you discuss.
I like that.
+Micah Buzan - I agree. These videos are the best.
For all those wondering about the Voight-Kampff test in the movie and how it works here is an explanation.
Replicants are emotionally immature and have difficulty projecting emotions and/or concealing them. This is why the Blade Runner interrogating Leon worked out so quickly that Leon was a replicant. This is also why Roy Batty and Pris act so awkwardly, especially with that kiss, they are experiencing emotions they are not prepared for. They are highly intelligent adults with a child-like response to their own emotions- when they choose to outwardly express their emotions that is.
Some replicants, in particular Nexus-6 ones, develop their own emotional responses and in the case of Rachel have no idea they are actually replicants. The Voight-Kampff test works by measuring emotional responses. Since the Blade Runners must have a list of emotional/physical responses which are linked to each individual replicant, then it is simply a matter of asking various probing questions to build an emotional response profile.
Further questions are applied for cross-referencing and with each verbal response, and emotional response, from the replicant, a blade runner builds up a profile until he finds a match. These questions are often linked to a replicant's implanted memories. The profile created from the interrogation matches the profile which the Tyrell Corporation has issued in their records for each and every replicant. These records contain a replicant's: implanted memories, emotional pysche and pyschological profile.
This is why Deckard had to ask up to 90 questions for Rachel; her verbal answers and emotional responses are highly advanced, mature and human. However on a subconscious level that initial profile is still there and thus detectable only to the most skilled of Blade Runners.
That's why the Voight-Kampff test can make the distinction between human and replicant. The implanted memories are a crucial factor to understanding this test. Without this a human who is mentally disabled, slow or autistic, would be falsely identified as a replicant.
///
Finally for Deckard I have a theory of my own. Deckard is human but some kind of personal tragedy befell him, something so severe it would have made him a recluse; housebound. I believe the Tyrell Corporation implanted memories, from someone else, to cushion the emotional trauma Deckard was experiencing and thus enabling him to manage his depression and continue working as a Blade Runner.
But the man is still pretty beat down since he is a lonesome alcoholic. However he can still do his job. This is why Gaff, the other Blade Runner, places origami unicorns. The sight of which triggers a subconscious impulse in Deckard, an impulse which the Tyrell Corporation use to control him. Deckard hates his job, he hates coming out of retirement but he forces himself to keep going. The origami unicorn triggers, on a subconscious level, a possible vague feeling of hope, peace and tranquillity for Deckard. It is vague but just enough to see him through one dreary day after another.
Deckard is human because he was not able to fight on par with the replicants. Deckard DREAMED of the unicorn, he never remembered it and the proof is simple- the man fell asleep, cue the unicorn sequence and the scene cuts to him starting as he had woken up from a quick doze. There is a big difference between a dream and a memory, and as far as I know the Tyrell Corporation do not appear to have the ability to dictate the dreams of a replicant.
Whether Deckard is aware that the memories are implanted or not is unclear. A possible clue is in the final scene when he scrunches that origami unicorn in his hand with a look of understanding. Has he accepted that he no longer needs the implanted memories as emotional support when he has Rachel and the memory of Roy Batty's death- a death which profoundly moved Deckard and actually made him value his life?
And think about it, if implanted memories could cushion the emotional responses of a replicant, wouldn't implanted memories have the same effect on a human?
+skatemetrix
Why wouldTyrell waste resources on a human being though? That's not in their field of research nor is there any hint of such in the movie. Tyrell is only linked to their creations and nothing more. Your theory just doesn't mesh with the themes that are presented.
To me, the question of whether Deckard is or isn't a replicant is up to the individual to decide based on what's presented. It is not to be taken sideways, imo.
+Ser Garlik I think it does mesh with the themes of Blade Runner and the biggest one being identity. Aside from the obvious two threads of: can a replicant ever be considered fully human; and does a replicant who thinks he is human be truly human?
With my theory there is another thread about identity- can a person who knows he has implanted memories still believe he is the same person? Additionally, for a person who has implanted memories but does not realise this, does the person still have the same core personality before the procedure as he does afterwards?
To be fair the using of implanted memories in the VK test to match a replicant's profile is not really implied that much, the main emphasis seems to be on emotional responses. However, reading between the lines, this hast to happen because a test relying solely on emotional responses could never make a distinction between replicant and human. So often in Blade Runner there are hidden themes and plot devices which are there in the background. It's a simple plot with an awful lot packed into it.
///
Whether Deckard is human or replicant, well at first glance both views could be correct. Evidence for Deckard being human: not as strong as other Replicants, his eyes never glint/glow in the dark and his emotional responses seem pretty human and developed.
Evidence for Deckard being replicant: the unicorn sequence if it is interpreted as a memory, Deckard's collection of photos and finally Gaff planting origami unicorns implying Deckard has implanted memories.
I don't like the idea that Deckard is a replicant, why would the company create a replicant who thinks he is human and who has none of the advantages of a replicant? I can understand Rachel's existence as just another experiment of the Tyrell Corporation. But Deckard's "creation" is a real stretch and also really tarnishes the character's personal development.
But the case for Deckard being human is not 100% watertight either. Again the unicorn sequence and Gaff's unicorn origamis.
With the implanted memory theory Deckard is still human, it explains Gaff's odd behaviour, it adds a new facet to the biological capabilities of the Tyrell Corporation AND it creates further mysteries/questions about the nature of human identity regarding implanted memories.
And the best thing about it is that there is still a mystery remaining- does Deckard realise he has implanted memories? So instead of the mystery being; is Deckard replicant or human? It now becomes; is Deckard's personality forever altered if he is not aware of the memory implants, or is he the same person whether he is aware, or not, of the procedure?
And again with both mysteries, does it really matter?
In the book, Deckard was effected by the radioactive dust. And had depression too, which sort of backs up your theory as well.
But, since the radioactive dust was only added in the second movie (plus the war) i guess we have to scratch that. Either way, I do believe he is human experiencing some sort of mental illness. In the book also, it delves deeper into what it is to be a Bounty hunter (Blade Runner) and what it does to your mind and stuff.
That is some genius insight! Thanks for the thinking material!
1:38 Snakes. Why'd it have to be snakes?

I read this in Manny's voice, and it was hilarious.
"Mojito ergo sum." Ahh, words to live by.
+Jill Elyse I drink therefore I am
It's meant to go cogito ergo sum I think.
+aztecr7 The joke is that Mr.Wormuloid transformed 'cogito' into 'mojito' a delicious lemonade alcohol. Hence the joke "I drink therefore I am"
omg, we need to just not educate and explain things any 8th grader should know by now. If you are teacher, stop teaching online and putting your self out of work. If you are NOT a teacher with a license and EMPLOYMENT, STOP TEACHING ONLINE!!!
Can we please have 'Pink Floyd The Wall'? Please. I will do anything.
Anything?
That be awesome
+RedLabs You need an idiot on yowtube to tell what you what things mean?
Pathos
This is not entertainment.
It's in group//out group creation. For morons like yourself, that need to be told what to think of what they witnessed.
+rdecredico ...Says the guy watching on this channel. D'oh!
Any Earth human being would agree this video is excelent.
+Ramonkey Oh INDEED! I AGREE, AS I AM A HUMAN AS WELL, AND CERTAINLY NOT A ZOGNOID!
+Henric von Winklebottom Of course not. How could you be? Remember ? We violently tortured and killed all known Zognoids in The Great Zognoid Slaughter of early 2016. Good Riddance! I hated them , the way they always yelled their sentences nervously, and always wearing men's black tie formal wear and stupid looking top hats from the early 1900's....and the way they ate their food with their assholes.......god damn disgusting Zognoids. There is rumored to be one remaining Zognoid still, so they say, hiding somewhere on Earth.I heard they hope to actually capture it alive to do Vivisections on and for raping and stuff.
+tarwagon
Was that before or after we ethnically cleasn... I mean euthanized all of the albino zognoids we had in captivity? I've always found that whole zognoid rebellion confusing. I know it ended with The Great Zognoid Slaughter, but I'm hazy on the other details. Was the ZLF the one's who attempted the assasination of the president of space or were they the ones who began the zognoid civil war, but then who started the subsequent zognoid revolution, zognoid reformation, and zognoid revolt.
you forgot about Deckard shooting Greedo.
nailed it.
Please do John Carpenter's The Thing!
Yes!!!
agreed
Starring Snake Plisken and the Oatmeal Diabeetus guy.
oh man that'd be swell
YES
Donnie Darko!
no
yees
+Thomas McIntosh yes
+Thomas McIntosh This man, right here, is king of the internet. You have the internet for the day. Use it wisely.
+Thomas McIntosh YES. YES. OH DEAR LORD OF UNCANNY BUNNIES' COSTUMES AND PLANE CRUSHES THAT STILL DON'T MAKE SENSE YES.
Roy teaches us that "life", even for Replicants, is precious. Brilliant ending . . . "All these memories will be lost, like tears in the rain. . . "
Love and peace to ALL of you my friends. Wm x x x
All those tears will be lost in rain... like...moments...in time
How about "Hidden Meaning in Earthling Cinema"
Hidden Meaning in Hobo With A Shotgun.
Hidden Meaning in Transformers: Age of Extintion :) Not
The hidden meaning: Rutger Hauer is still a fantastic actor, even in a shlocky yet fun gorefest, but will never be appreciated as much as he deserves.
amazing color grading in Hobo With A Shotgun
when life gives you razor blades...
WTF they didn't censor the drinking 00:42. Report!
How about the Hidden Meaning of Donnie Darko?
yes please!!!!
YES YES YES
500 Days of Summer please Wisecrack. I love you.
+alZiiHardstylez Yesss!
no
TRAVIS KGAZ no, fucka you.
Now you see; THAT is Wisecrack at its finest, and how it should rightly be!
Couldn't have wished a more excellent analysis of Blade Runner.
..still butthurt over the Dark Souls thing though ;(

Haha, seeing him say 'no rules, no parents....spring break forever' and showing horns with his hand might be the greatest thing on youtube ever :D
But can we answer the question?! Do androids dream of electric sheep???
They dream of electric boogaloo.
Hidden meaning in the hidden meaning series - the more garrex studies human history through movies, the more human he becomes
I like the Philip K. Dick joke. Nice touch. I can see alien archeologists in the future making the same error.
Wall-E?
Hi
+rowanaj That movie is all screwed up.
+rowanaj yes this would be phun
Lmfao wall-e
+rowanaj "Trash: bad" That's all there is, really.
Sometimes the movies they review are so on the nose, that I find it hard to believe that this show is called "Hidden Meaning."
Fun fact: Edward James Olmos, who plays detective Gaff in Bladerunner, also plays Commander Adama in Battlestar Galactica (the 2004 reboot). Both are stores about the lines of human and machine blurring, as the replicants in Bladerunner are a lot like the human Cylons in BSG.
"let's just hope there is no voiceover" - this non-human man get's it!
All time favourite film
Neuroticmancer Until Blade Runner 2049 arrived
"lets just hope there's no voice over" lmao yesssssss
+oohgoditsbees I have a fan edit that puts in several of the cut scenes and PARTIALLY restores the voiceover... but also leaves it out at places.
...and has the alt take for the sexual assault of racheal.
The lines from the sponsor clip and the crumples of the wisecrack intro are the same MIND BLOWN.
Can't wait to see them crack the hidden message of The Oogieloves in the Big Balloon Adventure!
Happy to know you have found sponsors to keep this channel running! Another great earthling cinema episode! Keep up the amazing work!!
I refuse to believe Decker is a Replicant. It will make his character arc, described here, worthless. I believe Gaff left that origami unicorn there, not because of a dream, but to tell Decker that he could've "retired" Rachael and he didn't. Even if it was about the dream, there is no other evidence that Decker is a Replicant.
+BigGator5
Oh, he's not a replicant. He's a _movie character._ ...but please, do go on about how his character arc is worthless if it's not real in this movie about flying cars, mechanical men, and an awe-inspiring dystopia.
+BigGator5 www.quora.com/Was-Deckard-a-replicant-in-Blade-Runner
+Daniel Gehring you seem to have trouble grasping the core principles of fiction and internal consistency. I'm sorry to see that. Though, addressing the original topic, if he's a replicant he's awfully weak. As in, way weaker than any other.
Android 19 Right? Why design a weak replicant to go after stronger ones? The logic of this movie just completely falls apart if he is one.
Android 19
It's actually kind of the opposite. I'm all for internal consistency in my movies, which is why I rebel against the internet's collective policy of trying to force a certain finality onto those movies which have ambiguous endings. We don't know if Deckard's a replicant _because the movie didn't want us to know for certain._ It's moot, destructive, and does a disservice to a great piece of cinema to try to force one's own perspective onto something that was specifically designed to _be_ ambiguous. It's like trying to explain a joke to your friend that didn't laugh.. not only won't it work, it'll just ruin it for the rest of the audience.
When you said, ' Roy isn't mad..just disappointed.' I laughed until some muscles in the back of my head cramped up. It's such a horrific scene as well. Now I feel a bit guilty.
Best movie channel on UA-cam. Period.
I have to do a study on this film and this video just came out, Thank you so much Wisecrack !
Could you do Primer/Upstream Color?
+シセル Upstream Color is so fucking good.
Yes, Primer please!
Primer killed my brain.
Hey Garyx, is everything alright? My wife and I noticed that you seem to be on a slow descent in to madness when it comes to your home life.
Great work with this one! You've done a man's job, sir!
Love these videos- just watched blade runner for the first time and picked up on the themes of humanity, but really needed something concise like this this to fully appreciate the meaning of the movie. Great video
Sooo are you going to do "her" once?
I just realized how that sounded
My favorite movie of all time!!!!
Do Taxi driver :D
I will never get tired of looking at Garyx Wormuloid's luscious eyebrows.
+A man with one hand i do more than look at them.
What version of blade runner did you guys use, and do you guys think is the best one?
I want to know too!
Er probably the Final Cut???
Fah! Everyone disses the voiceover. I love it. Even at its most awkward, it provides that old school film noir feel.
0:26 Phillip K pe- WHAT
Lol Phillip K Dick
Lol
+Atrijit Das Richard = Dick = Penis. Captain obvious flies away!
92brunod thank you sir??
+Eddie Scene It's based on the book called Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? To be honest, I never actually fully got/loved Blade Runner until I read that book. The movie is a COMPLETELY different perspective. I'd recommend the book. I love the movie after having read it. The part that always felt it was missing in my from the movie in my mind was filled :D
He did a BUNCH of things that have got adapted.
Of his bigger adaptations he did:
A Scanner Darkly
The Minority Report
Pay Cheque
The Adjustment Bureau
The books/short stories are great. I'd highly recommend Minority Report in terms of something to augment a movie.
This one was the best in a long time. It was both concise and funny. I'm smiling IRL.
You've done Clockwork Orange, 2001, The Shining, but will you ever do Full Metal Jacket, Dr. Strangelove, or Eyes Wide Shut!?
Watched this movie for the first time while tripping. Absolutely amazing visuals.
Can you guys please do The Hidden Meaning in The Breakfast Club? That would be amazing!
Shit made me laugh
"Roy isn't mad just disappointed". LMFAO!
Hidden meaning: Ghost in the Shell! Do eeeet.
First there was "Human Music" when I was stuck in a simulated reality, and now there's this "Earthling Cinema". What a great time to be alive!
453 days later and I'm still waiting for Donnie darko.
thank you so much. I've been asking for blade runner and you all delivered. much appreciated.
The hidden Meaning in "The hidden Meaning in..."
Congrats! There are more than 1 million earthlings subscribed to your channel!
Please review Equilibrium
Never ever stop making these.
Please do Synechdoche New York!
Perhaps the smartest series of film critiques on UA-cam.
Please do Shaun of the Dead, or else please please PLEASE do the Cornetto Trilogy as a whole. Thank you!
+Wilt that would be amazing.
um never stop making these. Please and thank you.
Hahah! That Spring Break throwback!
PLEASE DO 12 ANGRY MEN
Great film but I don't know if it lends itself well to this style of show. But I bet Wisecrack is up for the challenge.
Second'd.
Okay is it just me or the Garax Wormuloid have only 3 fingers and a thumb at 5:44? Also "Blade Runner is all about what it is like to be human: boring and confusing." Nailed it!
+Andy G It's just you.
+Andy G it looks like that because his middle finger is directly below his index finger. but he still has 5 fingers....
Lmomjian you're correct, I feel stupid now :P
Andy G
don't worry about it :-p
do Brazil by terry gilliam
The photography of Blade Runner is amazing, the constant dark-bluish colors in contrast with several colorful lights spotted in the background give it an realistic feel but also makes it look like a dream, reinforcing the idea of dystopia. Most movie nowadays just use full HD cameras with pretty much no meaning in the filming, making them look almost the same.
lets see some hidden meanings of the cult classic napoleon dynamite.
"I've seen things you wouldn't believe."
Favorite part of the film.
Please do six seasons of the sopranos.
+Byzantium 44 yeah
Did anyone else notice at 5:44 when he says "spring break forever" that he only has 4 fingers????
What about Daft Punk's movie, "Interstellar 5555" ?
I have to keep stopping it because I'm laughing so hard I'm missing it ....awesome
Star Wars and Star Trek are two very naughty and playful little boys, always quarrelling over who's the cooler one ... their daddy Blade Runner comes along and give each a good spanking for being so childish ...
The End.
BR is overrated.
man, wasn't a huge fan of blade runner but this made me think about it a lot
Apocalypse Now!
Look forward to these every week , thanks
Synecdoche New York?
I like the voice over, this is why the Japanese print Laserdisc is the ultimate version of this epic , all the uncut goodness and the voice over.
More Philip K. Penis please.
Think Total Recall (Arnie version) or Minority Report.
I'm so glad this channel got 1,000,000, will you be doing a special?
Oh for fucks sakes with these popular movies... Do Persona, Eraserhead, Sorcerer, Solaris, El Topo
+BlackPaw eraserhead definitely
Oh for fucks sake with movies my audience would like seeing done, will actually watch and help pay my bills.
oh you so hipster
I agree, but also would mock this.
Gratz on the big 1 million. Yall deserve it hard
Oh and it would be awsome if you did Jacobs Ladder, that movie is deep.
Do Amadeus!
I absolve you!
+BenjaminSteber Too many notes!
+TheBlackSpiral today's artifact is Amadeus directed by human cat pug hybrid Milos and Otis and starring former president F Murray Abraham and professional Joker impersonator Tom Hlucifer (Mozart laugh). The story begins with an elderly composer named Salieri depressed that he missed dessert and going all throat emo.
I could write this thing myself but I'll stop.
BenjaminSteber Haha, you did pretty well though ;)
I love that movie still.
thank you so much I didn't understand this movie at all untill you explained it
Do a Bojack Horseman vid please?
lol this is the first video I've seen of yours, subbed. Didn't know bladerunner could turn out to be actually funny.
Guys you're missing the whole point of the book and movie! It's the story of a knife who wanted to be the fastest on his track team!
Ha! I see what you did there. Oh, title thievery.
Turd Ferguson Yeah, that's right. Turd Ferguson. It's a funny name. (Quote from my favorite SNL sketch)
Do 'The Social Network' :)
I never watched Blade Runner, but this content is too good to miss.
+Dagoberto Coria Dude! You are so missing out! One thing,watch it on the biggest screen you can get.
ha nice, I'll give it a vidi
Okay can someone confirm that Deckard is a replicant?
p sure ridley scott confirmed it.
And Harrison Ford denied it XD
it's possible but still up in the air.
I don't think there can be better confirmation than the movies's director himself
+Miguel Pereira well if Harrison ford shows up in the sequel it destroys the theory, plus in the source material deckard is confirmed not to be a replicant, that was just the machinations of the director
"loopy loop on the Screaming Demon" Awesome Coaster at Kings Island I rode it a long time ago ....Its gone now but Man was it thrilling....
So... are you going to discuss the HIDDEN meaning in a different video, or does your title mean to imply "the basic shit everyone knows from having just seen the film"?
It's satire. Maybe you should watch more of these videos before making yourself look like and idiot.
Cryogen It's not a satire of the film. Is it a satire of those videos that discuss neat trivia FROM film? Well, maybe, but it's played awfully straight.
Is the hidden meaning a satire of the general context of subtext and deeper meaning in visual media?
Also, a persons first exposure to a new form of media, or a new channel, or a new person, is very important. Are you aware of the phrase "good first impression"? A channel that produces video content is often inclined to release content that will leave a good first impression on new and first time viewers, because that will increase their number of repeat views and viewer retention. That, in turn, will contribute to their overall advertising income and promotion on the platform on which they've chosen to release their content. If they leave a poor first impression, there is a chance that the viewer in question will choose to not actually watch more videos- since they, you know, disliked the first one- and will be, in fact, inclined to form a negative mental bias against the channel.
but nah ill just watch more of their shitty videos, thanks pal you're a peach love you
Cryogen Okay yeah, I got you. No hard feelings, and sorry my response to you was also kind of sarcastic and mean-spirited. I should know better than to be a jerk, lol.
Anyway yeah, I got a little overly critical with the video and my initial comment, because I really love this film and got excited there'd be some new little things I hadn't known previously, and felt disappointed. I guess if you had only seen Blade Runner once, or not watched it yet, this would probably be an alright video?
Jinx Its cool. I love Blade Runner aswel
Chilled last word...... I love it!
Do Wayne's world
Been waiting forever for this one!
