That didn't mist me up but I do love that scene and probably go youtube it once a month."Quite an experience to live in fear, isn't it? That's what it is to be a slave.
I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the darkness at Tannh?user Gate. All those moments will be lost in time like tears in rain. Time to die."
This scene gets me, and I'm not 100% sure why, Roy wasn't a likable character, but it feels like his overall story and his ending actions deserved some sympathy.
Or I'm just a fucking weirdo.
That scene is one of the greatest cinematic moments ever put on film. Rutger Hauer kills it in portraying Roy Batty as he actually learns what it is to be human just before dying. The last 15 minutes of Big Fish is pretty brutal on the emotions when the father lets the son tell his final story and then tells him that it was exactly what he wanted as the story of his life. Also, don't let Netflix trick you into watching Mary & Max thinking that it's a comedy. There are about two minutes of funny things at the beginning of that movie before it just starts gut punching your soul for an hour and a half."Quite an experience to live in fear, isn't it? That's what it is to be a slave.

I haven't studied Japanese history, but I have no illusions that the movie was based on many facts. But it was a good story. The disciplined, honorable samurai I reference are the obviously fictional characters in the film.Actually, the Samurai class were notoriously corrupt and their resistance to the Meiji Restoration was not because they were 'fighting a battle to preserve the soul of Japan' but because they were against changes that would take away their status as the privileged elite of Japanese society. The film also glosses over the fact that many Samurai gave up their privileged status to support the Meiji Restoration because they believed it would strengthen Japan.
Fuck you for making me remember that.When Old Dan and Little Ann die in Where the Red Fern Grows.
