Nerdcore: Should Deckard be a replicant in Blade Runner? by Mischief Maker 12/06/2013, 2:04pm PST
My argument is an emphatic NO for 4 main reasons:

1. It robs the rooftop scene between Deckard and Roy Batty of any meaning.

2. It makes the character of Rachael redundant.

3. If Deckard was a replicant-hunting replicant, why was he physically overpowered by every single other replicant, especially Pris the "basic pleasure model?"

4. One of the overarching themes of the movie was the juxtaposition of the passionate emotional replicants verses the emotionally repressed humans. The fact that Gaff spared Rachael in the end showed that as dismal as the future of Blade Runner is, we hadn't lost all our humanity. I'd bet money the original director's cut Scott submitted to the studio didn't have the dream sequence and the fact that the origami was in the shape of a unicorn was inconsequential.
