Blade Runner

Soldier was written by David Peoples , who co-wrote the script

for Blade Runner. By his own admission, he considers Soldier to

be a "sidequel "/ spiritual successor to Blade Runner.[2] It also

obliquely references various elements of stories written by

Philip K. Dick (who wrote the novel Do Androids Dream of

Electric Sheep? , on which Blade Runner is based), or film

adaptations thereof. A " Spinner" vehicle from Blade Runner can

be seen in the wreckage on a junk planet that features in the

film. [3]

There are also several dialogue references to event such as

"Tanhauser Gate" from Blade Runner.

Production notes

The script was 15 years old at the time of production. [4]

Kurt Russell broke his ankle during the first week of shooting,

so the entire production needed to be rescheduled. The film

makers first shot scenes involving Russell lying down, followed

by scenes of Russell sitting, Russell standing but not moving,

and so on. [4] The official press release on the injury by the

studio claimed it occurred during a stunt, while the true cause

was Russell tripping on a cabbage.

References To Other Works

Among Todd's service records (both on computer screen

display and on his arm), one can see :

Combat History:

Battles of Tannhauser Gate and Shoulder of Orion

(references to Blade Runner (1982) , co-written by the

same screenwriter)

Battle of Nibian Moon, Antares Maelstrom War (a reference

to Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan (1982) ).

Commendations:

"Plissken Patch" (a reference to Escape from New York

(1981) and Escape from L.A . (1996) )

"O' Neill Ring Award" (a reference to Stargate (1994) )

"MacReady Cross" (a reference to The Thing (1982))

"Cash Medal of Bravery" (a reference to Tango & Cash

(1989))

Ordnance Levels:

DOOM MKIV BFG (a reference to Doom)

USCM Smartgun (a reference to Aliens)

Reception

Soldier was a box office flop. Shot with a budget of $75 million,

the film only took in $15 million worldwide. [1] The film was

critically panned, in part due to the lackluster dialogue that had

Kurt Russell speaking only 79 words over the course of the 99

minute movie, 11 of which are "sir" .[5]
