RIP Rutger Hauer

He improvised (much of) that monologue. And Blade Runner is set in 2019. Goddamnit.

"Blade Runner - time to die" (Watch on YouTube)

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 dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like… tears in rain.

Except for an actor, all those moments stay with us. The Hitcher, Ladyhawke, Hobo With A Shotgun, Flesh + Blood ... and of course that little movie Buffy The Vampire Slayer.

Rust zacht, Rutger.

Thank you. There's a reason this scene is a classic.
