10 Last Minute Movie Decisions That Shaped Your Favourite Films

Ridley Scott's Blade Runner has gone down as one of the most important Sci-Fi films in all of cinema and for good reason. Scott built a world that visually stands up to anything that we have seen in the 37 years since and characters that are as flawed as they are human (ironically).

The novel that the film is based on, 'Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?', ended with an inconclusive finale. It asked the question 'is Rick Deckard actually a replicant himself?'

Not ones to take a risk on such an expensive punt, the studio decided against the open ending and asked Scott to add some narration from Deckard to tie up the loose plot ends.

It may not have stirred the same level of conversation that the original ending did, but the narration helped to give the studio their Hollywood happily ever after as Deckard and Rachel drove off into the sunset.

Scott denounced the U.S. original theatrical cut that was released in 1982 and pushed Warner Bros to release his director's cut in 1992. Scott's version was met with much more fan speculation and theories about whether Deckard was human or not, but he still wasn't satisfied with the cut - releasing a final cut in 2007.
