FWIW he improvised that line on the spot...put his own spin on the -script...and it was better. 1 PopKulture reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ThothAmon 3,050 posts Posted July 24, 2019 Was one of my favorite actors growing up. As stated his legacy will be Blade Runner but I always liked the character he played in Flesh and Blood. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

seanfingh 42,325 posts Posted July 25, 2019 http://www.myslabbedcomics.com/GalleryPiece.asp?Piece=7740&GSub=627 Hauer's line was too long for him to do inscriptions. I had asked him to do "I want more life, f**ker." I think of that as the quintessential Roy Batty line, even more so than the Tannhauser Gate. RIP Rutger, you were amazing!
