2 2 of :39 Screenplay by Hampton Fancher and David Peoples Blade Runner Motion Picture Soundtrack, by Vangelis Android, by Charles Carreon Let Me Tell You About My Mother Little Movie Deckard's Ride to the Station Little Movie Voight Kampff Little Movie Zhora's Run Part 1; Zhora's Run Part 2 Little Movies Tears in Rain Little Movie Unfortunately, with Hollywood Illuminati style, Ridley Scott betrays Phil Dick's profoundly human message by turning the movie into empathy for The Machine, when the whole point of Dick's book is the special empathy human beings have for other living creatures. Machines repelled Phil Dick: Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep, by Philip K. Dick For a long time he stood gazing at the owl, who dozed on its perch. A thousand thoughts came into his mind, thoughts about the war, about the days when owls had fallen from the sky; he remembered how in his childhood it had been discovered that species upon species had become extinct and how the 'papes had reported it each day foxes one morning, badgers the next, until people had stopped reading the perpetual animal obits. He thought, too, about his need for a real animal; within him an actual hatred once more manifested itself toward his electric sheep, which he had to tend, had to care about, as if it lived. The tyranny of an object, he thought. It doesn't know I exist. Like the

3 3 of :39 androids, it had no ability to appreciate the existence of another. He had never thought of this before, the similarity between an electric animal and an andy. The electric animal, he pondered, could be considered a subform of the other, a kind of vastly inferior robot. Or, conversely, the android could be regarded as a highly developed, evolved version of the ersatz animal. Both viewpoints repelled him. With Dr. Frankenstein as his model, Ridley Scott endows The Machine with life. Roy Baty says, "Time to Die." Gaff tells Deckard: "Too bad [Rachael] won't live, but then again, who does?" The problem is, they were never alive. After giving The Thing life, in Bunuelian, Opus Dei fashion, he turns the mass murderer, Roy Baty, into a perverted version of Christ. Although I am not a Christian (as if you could "be" a club religion as identity theft), it infuriates me when the Illuminati mock Christ. Christ was a loving person, not a killer. That is how the story is told. It is sadistic and unfair to portray Christ as a psycho killer machine, and this more than anything else shows Ridley Scott's membership in the Illuminati. Dick points out how dangerous it is to empathize with The

4 4 of :39 Machine: Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep, by Philip K. Dick "You realize," Phil Resch said quietly, "what this would do. If we included androids in our range of empathic identification, as we do animals." "We couldn't protect ourselves." "Absolutely. These Nexus 6 types... they'd roll all over us and mash us flat. Is this what Ridley Scott wants, for The Machine to roll all over us and mash us flat, in a Terminator scenario? Ridley Scott misogynistically turns Deckard's woman into an android. In the book, Deckard rejects Rachael as a long term partner BECAUSE she's an android, and regrets that he doesn't "kill" her when he has the chance, before she kills his goat. He wants a real goat... and a real woman, and he HAS a real wife who is fierce about caring, even though he's too blind to appreciate it: Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep, by Philip K. Dick "My schedule for today lists a six hour self accusatory depression," Iran said. "What? Why did you schedule that?" It defeated the whole purpose of the mood organ. "I didn't even know you could set it for that," he said gloomily. "I was sitting here one afternoon," Iran said, "and naturally I had turned on Buster Friendly

5 5 of :39 and His Friendly Friends and he was talking about a big news item he's about to break and then that awful commercial came on, the one I hate; you know, for Mountibank Lead Codpieces. And so for a minute I shut off the sound. And I heard the building, this building; I heard the " She gestured. "Empty apartments," Rick said. Sometimes he heard them at night when he was supposed to be asleep. And yet, for this day and age a one half occupied conapt building rated high in the scheme of population density; out in what had been before the war the suburbs one could find buildings entirely empty... or so he had heard. He had let the information remain secondhand; like most people he did not care to experience it directly. "At that moment," Iran said, "when I had the TV sound off, I was in a 382 mood; I had just dialed it. So although I heard the emptiness intellectually, I didn't feel it. My first reaction consisted of being grateful that we could afford a Penfield mood organ. But then I realized how unhealthy it was, sensing the absence of life, not just in this building but everywhere, and not reacting do you see? I guess you don't. But that used to be considered a sign of mental illness; they called it 'absence of appropriate affect.' So I left the TV sound off and I sat down at my mood organ and I experimented. And I finally found a setting for despair." Her dark, pert face showed satisfaction, as if she had achieved something of worth. "So I put it on my schedule for twice a month; I think that's a reasonable amount of time to feel hopeless about everything, about staying here on Earth after everybody who's smart has emigrated, don't you think?" Then again, she doesn't have the discrimination to NOT have empathy for androids, and blames Deckard unfairly for "killing" androids, as if you could "kill" a machine. To express his profound realization about wanting living things to be alive and not dead, Dick takes the Skull &

6 6 of :39 Bones metaphor of the tomb world, and transforms it into something philosophically transcendent: Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep, by Philip K. Dick Local law prohibited the time reversal faculty by which the dead returned to life; they had spelled it out to him during his sixteenth year. He continued for another year to do it secretly, in the still remaining woods, but an old woman whom he had never seen or heard of had told. Without his parents' consent they the killers had bombarded the unique nodule which had formed in his brain, had attacked it with radioactive cobalt, and this had plunged him into a different world, one whose existence he had never suspected. It had been a pit of corpses and dead bones and he had struggled for years to get up from it. The donkey and especially the toad, the creatures most important to him, had vanished, had become extinct; only rotting fragments, an eyeless head here, part of a hand there, remained. At last a bird which had come there to die told him where he was. He had sunk down into the tomb world. He could not get out until the bones strewn around him grew back into living creatures; he had become joined to the metabolism of other lives and until they rose he could not rise either. But returning the metaphor to its horrid origins, Ridley Scott throws all living creatures back INTO the tomb world, by making them similar to androids. Dick's enlightenment is all about appreciating life. Mercerism "thread" is another word for tantra, the energy that connects all life, and plays on the word "mercy" as well. The Dalai Lama should receive initiation from Philip Dick who is by far the more accomplished tantric lama. The Dalai Lama is always bagging on animals, like one of the killers.

7 7 of :39 "This is the great age, make no mistake about it; the robot has been born somewhat appropriately along with the atom bomb, and the brain they say now is just another type of more complicated feedback system. The engineers have its basic principles worked out; it's mechanical, you know; nothing to get superstitious about; and man can always improve on nature once he gets the idea. Well, he's got it all right and that's why, I guess, that I sit here in my chair, with the article crunched in my hand, remembering those two birds and that blue mountain sunlight. There is another magazine article on my desk that reads "Machines Are Getting Smarter Every Day." I don't deny it, but I'll still stick with the birds. It's life I believe in, not machines."
