Honestly? Yeah. He's a murderer, but all of his actions are motivated by simple survival- desperately trying to find a way to outlive his incredibly brief lifespan, after first doing everything he can within it and still finding that wasn't enough. It's hard to argue that his death wasn't justified, but at the same time, it's also hard not to at least feel a little sorry for him.

massive spider posted:It wasnt a murderer because only persons can be murdrerers. Batty is clearly sapient and capable of free thought. Doesn't that qualify him for personhood?

You know what? I kinda like that. I like the scene in the narration-free versions better, but it still works pretty well with the narration, mostly because they weren't completely ham-handed with where they put it. Man, to have been in a theater in 1982 and seen that poo poo for the first time. Even in its original form I'd be going to bat like hell for that movie.
