I’m pointing out that character’s actions should be motivated— not random.

Rachael’s attachment to Ford needed more unpacking.

There was material there. She discovers she’s a replicant. Maybe the only person she is close to, Tyrell, has been lying to her. So she turns to Ford https://twitter.com/thebigbrocook/status/1291231990310514688

They could’ve bolstered her motives for seeking him out by including a secene which shows how isolated her life is, & how destabilizing the realization that she’s a replicant was. Imagine if she’d been written as having mixed feelings abt whether to kill replicants to save Ford.

As it was, she just popped up at this bar (too conveniently) to kill a replicant to save Ford—did she know who she was killing? She asked Ford earlier: have you ever accidentally retired a human? They could’ve played with her inner state. Instead they didn’t give her one.

I’m not “bad at understanding movies” becuase my emotional intelligence isn’t satisfied by characters who behave in random ways that aren’t established by the narrative.

Sorry, but you can’t fall back on “this girl doesn’t get sci fi.”
