And well done Jay!

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

I'd like to thank the acadamy.

Ever hear of Saint Clairsville ? Its about 20 minutes from me . I live about an hour  away from Canton . I go to Cons up there twice a year .

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

No, but I'm 'orrible with geography. I'm thinking about going to the Mid Ohio Con next year, if there's anyone good there.

Batty is Lucifer because he is the most perfect and powerful "child" of his creator, but rejects his creator's plan for himself and his brethren. There are lots of parallels - Lucifer was Captain of the Host, Batty is a military leader of combat robots, to name one.

 

He is Christ because he sacrifices himself so that Deckard and his "girlfriend" can achieve enlightenment and salvation. He is his creator's son who must die so the replicants (Deckard) can become human - i.e. their "soul" is saved. A good hint here: What does Batty do when he has to "stop dying" for a while? He PUSHES SPIKES THROUGH HIS PALM. Actually, it's a bit too obvious, isn't it. (But hey, I LOVED it)

Another cosmetic similarity....

Roy comes from off-world, so he either falls to earth, or he voluntarily comes down from the heavens.

Read. This. Book.

An amazing, haunting piece of comic book literature.

I nearly wept several times at its beauty.

No, I'm not drinking.

\/\/007!!1!

Sweet. one day we should party.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Cool. I'd hang with the Brothers K.

You are indeed a lucky man, Mr. Jaynova... ;)

Hey, she just gave me my Christmas Present today.....a surround sound system!!!

Not a super high-end one, but it's perfect for our little house.

You are indeed a lucky man, Mr. Jaynova... ;)

None of that crazy

foreign talk, you silly Serb.

Je ne comprende pas.

so, you have a kid pretending to be a cat, and a cat pretending to be a playboy centerfold model... ;)

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

What can I say? My cat is dead sexy.

Cool. Where you live? Kinda rural no?

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Near Canton, OH. (about 1/2 hour away) Lots of cornfeilds. Sometimes, when I come home late, there are up to 7 deer in my front yard.

Question: do women find man-love attractive, the way men find girl-on-girl stimulating?

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

My wife sure does.

No, guys. I haven't.

Sorry to break this out into its own thread but I figured a "Blade Runner" appreciation thread could make its own way in the world. Sethos was saying in another thread that if you see the director's cut it makes it much more clear, though it's subtle, that Deckard is a replicant, that he has planted memories, and the cops (particularly Edward James Olmos) know it.

 

I have not seen the director's cut but THAT IS SO FRIGGIN' COOL. It puts all of Deckard's actions in new light, like how is he able to fight these people? Spit teeth? Take tremendous blows from Pris? What are his memories?

 

Damn, I gotta see this. There was a dream sequence with a unicorn?

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Yeah, and he has all those pictures, too.

Blade Runner is awesome. I was an English major, so this next comment is all English majory:

Roy is both a Christ figure and a Lucifer figure. Discuss.

Wow, those are some big cookies your womans got. And so MANY too.  :wacko:

 

Is she a Kiwi, mate?. Your better half, as it were?.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

No. Unfortunately, we're both Americans.

Why? Does she look like one?

Finally, I can do this! This is from my porch, as my windows suck.

I took it on Saturday.

And this was today.

This is from the road, looking at my house. My wife tok this pic. That's me, runningdown the driveway.

What....did you think...?

Wow. You guys are perverts. Seriously, grow up.

My other cat, Jiji. She is named after the cat from Kiki's Delivery Service.

My cat, Merlyn.

My brother-in-law's chickie's other daughter (a.k.a. my neice).

She was pretending to be a cat, I think.

My brother-in-law and his chickie. (The baby neice is theirs.)

This is my baby neice.

This is Jay and Mrs. Nova

Ahhh...I'm back. Sorry...my wifes birthday was today, and sop we've been with her family. Let me find a place to dump photos, then I'll post 'em.

Still charging, then I have to go. I'll try to post something tonight.

Abhimanyu is from India, but he is currently enjoying (?) a stay in the United States. He loves books, film, and social debate. He is in his early 20's, but is wise beyond his years. His mock indignation at others' posts is often mistaken as sincere. A cool guy, and a great addition to any conversation.

As you can see by his avatar, he has mastered the "Mesmer Stare".
