Hard disagree on him being a replicant not having a point. It’s meant to basically get the post Across that replicants are for all intents and purposes humans or the same as humans, with the same fears and desires.

I feel this movie posed many questions that were left to the viewer to answer. In a sense that is where much of the substance of the movie is derived. Ridley Scott has a special ability to give the viewer just enough to interpret their own questions and meanings for what is happening in the film. That is why there is so much dead air in this film. Ridley is allowing us to ponder the deeper thoughts and emotions that all truly make us more human than human.

"Foreskin Jobs"? Well, that would explain the BLADE...and the RUNNER!!

The tiles in Deckards apartment from the Ennis house are also in Predator 2.

The Predator 2 tiles are different, but clearly inspired by them /prop nerd

They are also in Neville Sinclair’s house in THE ROCKETEER

One of my all time favorite movies. Great atmosphere, awesome cinematography, totally epic deep story I could never get tired of, the characters are on par for the times and style of movie. Ironically there is a knife company "BRS" Blade Runner Systems and my favorite balisong from them is the replicant 👌

What a masterpiece that inspired so many other movies!
