COMMENTS: This is a Fan Cut, comprised mainly of the Director's Final Cut & the International Theatre Version. This fan version contains; the 12 voice-over narrations, All the UNRATED 'graphic-violence' scenes & the Director's ending cut. This version removes; The extended 'happy' ending and the unicorn daydream scene. Most of the footage (1 Hour 43 Minutes & 27 Seconds) is taken from the restored & remastered 'Final Cut' & The rest of the footage (14 Minutes & 26 Seconds) is taken from the International Cut. Directly from the Blu-rays.

*Why? I've always loved the International theatrical version since it is UNRATED -- Unlike the US Theatrical cut. The Voice-over narration is another favourite of mine since it gives it that 'old fashioned detective movie feel' while still maintaining its Film Noir characteristics -- *Spoilers* Yet I disliked the extended 'happy' ending since it just interjected material from a completely different movie and felt out of place & without sense. With the Director's Final Cut I loved the job they did with the restoration, and the abrupt ending is masterful since it leaves you thinking & wondering, yet I disliked how instead of leaving Deckard's humanity in question it pretty much just destroyed all argument by adding the 'unicorn daydream scene' -- This is the main reason why this fan cut is a mix of both of those versions.

SYNOPSIS: With a blend of science fiction and noir detective fiction, this dystopian film presents a vision of the future where man has developed the technology to create replicants -- human-like androids with short life spans built by the Tyrell Corporation & used in dangerous off-world colonization. Deckard is a Blade Runner -- a euphemism for bounty-hunters that track down and assassinate rogue replicants -- He has been forced back into active duty to hunt down a quartet of replicants who have escaped from an off-world colony and headed to Earth.
