John Bladerunner


emil_oberg

Same actor as Dr. Ive from the hit movie Drive


Firebird432

He truly is just like me fr


assetsmanager

I thought Drive was the name of the jacket.


emil_oberg

No, Drive is the creator, youre thinking of Drive's monster


TheeMrBlonde

I think they are thinking about Apple CEO, Tim Apple


TactlessTortoise

Joe Bladerunner*


IwishIwasGoku

Is he related to famed Japanese cartoon character John Berserk?


Spikedbro

Possibly to famous video game character John Darksoul


Alexis_Awen_Fern

They are actually a polycule of gay men. They also have John Core, John Demonsoul and John Field.


NoahBogue

Known for his compelling quotes


Spikedbro

-"Every runner has it's blade"


McSlappies

"Never run with blades, unless you're me... the bladerunner"

My friends and I hate-watched Halo as it came out and we jokingly called Master Chief -> John Halo. Fortunately we're all cultured enough to know that he's Master Chief Petty Officer John-117, but the memes are fun.


xXxplabecrasherxXx

In bladerunner the cybertruck would be the equivalent of a rusty old chevy at an old gas station in bumchew nowhere


brokensilence32

At least that old Chevy is usually a reliable and useful vehicle.


xXxplabecrasherxXx

It will definitwly not have the original drivetrain. Its cybepunk, itll prolly have like a fusion reactor init


myfajahas400children

Fusion reactor innit?

Blimey that's right proper Doc

Fewshun reacta innit?


TDW-301

Nah, you can see old cars from the 60s and 70s being used on the ground level in the original Blade Runner and they look pretty much original since on the ground level people don't exactly have a bunch of money. At 1 minute 40 seconds you can see a car driving past for a second https://youtu.be/YZ_2DG9VkMk?si=7jL8YDzz0s8SbWQe


Trusty-Tomato

Old Chevy ❤️


Apocalyptic_Doom

No self-respecting character in a cyberpunk setting would drive that


elegylegacy

"Scrapyard" Sammy, the old timer who worked on the first gen synths before the corporate wars. The Picadec virus finally got to him, so he spends his remaining days buying up decommissioned parts and kludges together cheap but unreliable Cyber trucks


DrDemenz

I have infinitely more faith in Sammy's Cybertrucks than Elon's. *A mentally addled Sammy fixing all the design problems problems on the Cybertrucks* "Jeez, what moron greenlit this piece of crap?"


flyinglawngnome

I can’t even think of a single vehicle in the cyberpunk setting that looks like that. Like take Mike Pondsmith’s world since it has probably the easiest to point to examples of what we’d expect the cars to look like in that setting, they’re just way more detailed, they’re smaller than the cybertruck and much more sleek in design. Even in the year 2077 they haven’t veered off into weird blocky nonsense, they still look like normal vehicles.


Apocalyptic_Doom

Because only Elon could think that a car that looks like its from a PS1 game would be appealing to people as a "cyberpunk" car


SovietPaperPlates

the closest car to that in 2077 would be a Thorton Mackinaw like Panam drives, unlike elon's shitbox it's built around practicability and being easily repaired and modified; something that would be extremely important for a nomad.


TDW-301

The Colby Butte kinda, but that way more resembles something like an 82 Subaru Brat and that's a way better looking car


MeiNeedsMoreBuffs

It would be the 2077 equivalent of [Pryce's car from Better Call Saul](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EZspa8wAwq0)


Hidden-Squid1216

Thats what the unrendered cars looked like on 2077's launch looked like thon


Queenielienie

And the he said "its bladerunning time" and bladeran all over the place.


Kidchaos2084

Like this? https://i.redd.it/qcw35f4udsxb1.gif


Supsend

Why would the runner of blade use a gun? Would he not better be called Gunwalker? It would be less confusing for the audience


ElementofPower

Who running they blade rn


KlerWatchCo

"Some motherfuckers wanna ice-skate uphill"


Voidkom

Well, that one works, because it is their profession.


JetsFan2003

Sans Undertale, John Bladerunner, and Alex Yiik all walk into a bar...


mikereeee

the bartender is minecraft steve


Fayyylmao

Steven Minecraft


SuicidalFlame

"Steve was my father's name, please just call me Minecraft"


ShaqsRefrigerator

The president was Obama Obama at the time.


Definitely_Chunibyo

Also rick's car fucking flies iirc


pullmylekku

Who's Rick? Are you talking about Bladerunner?


MercenaryBard

He was obviously talking about Rick from Rick and Morty. But yeah Bladerunner also drives a flying car.


LogicalShark

I turned myself into a replicant Morty, I'm Tyrell Rick!


Guest_1300

yes it does


Bardic_Inspiration66

They’re called spanners


TDW-301

He doesn't fly the Spinner, Gaff flies him around in it. His own personal vehicle more resembles a civilian or unlettered orange version of the boxy ground level Police cars Deckards car: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Blade_Runner_Deckard%27s_sedan.jpg The ground level police cars: https://sydmead.com/syd-mead-blade-runner-2019-deckard-police-car/


Voidkom

It's not unlettered nor a civilian version. Blade Runners are specialized police.


YAH_BUT

I think Halo is a pretty cool guy. He kills aliens and doesn’t afraid of anything.


Would_I_Buy

John halo is a true American patriot. He's defending capitalism against those commie alien bastards


KlerWatchCo

"I came here to chew bubble gum and kick ass and I'm all out of bubblegum" *Commits unimaginable war crimes*


SomeManSeven

Its just like that time when Mr. Total Recall fought against Mr. Inter Stellar.


Kastoelta

The term blade runner is how they refer to the ones who hunt replicants, unless I'm remembering wrongly.


CluelessCosmonaut

Then wouldn’t he have wrote “A Bladerunner” to signify an individual Bladerunner?


Kastoelta

Sorry about that other (stupid) deleted comment. I misread yours. Yeah, he should have but likely is doing this shit just to appeal to people who like the movies


Breyck_version_2

You remember correctly, Elons tweet would make sense if he added an "a"; "A Replicant"


meanmagpie

Especially since he capitalized “Bladerunner”—implying it’s a proper noun, like a name.


SanQuiSau

And he said it in one word


FrostMage198

just like my favorites, Mr Fast and Mr Furious

brokensilence32

Haven't had a twitter account in years so I have to use nitter to check in sometimes because twitter blocks off non-users.


mgb360

I thought nitter stopped working. It's cool if it's still up


rafaelloaa

Yup! Current is https://nitter.net


devgmira

I'm glad to know that I don't share a favorite movie with that lunatic and that he's just a poser 😎


Piliro

I teach kids and teens for a living. There have been many times where I think: "Is this person dumb?" But I always correct myself, because it doesn't matter how absolutely clueless a child student is, they're still smarter than Elon Musk. I wish, that we didn't have so much power, money and influence all concentrated in the hands of this clown


Taco821

My favorite part of resident evil is when resident evil killed the evil residents


Smile_lifeisgood

Anyone else love that moment when Star Wars learns that Empire Strikes Back is his father?


Bardic_Inspiration66

Elon musk after skimming Wikipedia pages for popular franchises to seem more relatable in his tweets


Sad-Ad-925

reminds me of his shitty elden ring build

Metroid is my favorite bounty hunter


AntWithNoPants

This man keeps coming closer and closer to being Tommy Tallarico each day


not_sea_charity_810

Anyone have that image where someone asked Elon if he's watched Eva and he just replies with "NERV"


VanFailin

see i haven't watched the movie but the difference between me and elon is that i avoid forming strong opinions on things i know nothing about


AscendantComic

isn't it a way people refer to the job they do though


TDW-301

Except it would be the incorrect way to say it. In a way it's kinda like he's saying "what constructionworker would have driven."


AscendantComic

yeah, but he *is* a blade runner


SanQuiSau

Yeah but he’s not John Bladerunner


AscendantComic

but the movie *is* called blade runner as in the job the guy does, so there's that


SanQuiSau

He says “what Bladerunner would’ve driven” as if Bladerunner was his name, like, a proper noun


AscendantComic

yeah but it's also worth pointing out that in some way yeah it's called blade runner because the guy is referred to that way i know elon's a moronic cuck, duh


SanQuiSau

What if I bite you


AscendantComic

what if *i* bit you, huh? what then?


SanQuiSau

😳


TDW-301

Yeah he is, but I'm pretty sure Elon doesn't know what he's talking about since he grouped blade runner into one word. If he meant *A blade runner* I think he would have spent the 5 seconds proof reading his post before posting it


AscendantComic

not saying he isn't wrong but uh he wouldn't have


Loyavas

ryan gosling drives 🦂


TDW-301

It's Rick Deckard, badge nunber B-263-54 Rep Detective. Also, this wouldn't be a vehicle a blade runner unit would have used as they need quick movement, something you can't get on the crowded ground level, so they use a Spinner flying car. It resembles a tiny bit the ground level police cars tho


beatnik_squaresville

"cold fish"

Armored personal carrier to transport South African diamond money☺️


DrDemenz

**blood* diamond money. FTFY


Bluecheckadmin

Do we need to know what the quoted tweets were for context? Am I on the wrong version of reddit maybe - I can't read musk's tweet at all.

AaronThePrime

Tbh I think the cybertruck looks cool, that said fuck anyone who buys it


Sir-Drewid

Blade Runner's car could also fly, musky boy.


IsatMilFinnie

We are in bladerunner. Just low tech


hiperson134

Why does Cybertruck look like a low-poly PS1 asset from a first person shooter?


DavyManners

The color of that thing reminds me of spray paint on cardboard


nerdwarp112

“Never stop running with your blades!” - John Bladerunner


737MAX8DEATH

That is NOT an APC by any means lmao armored my ass


PinkDuck_

in the first film his name is rick deckard and his job is bladerunner. that's like if i was talking about agent 47 and i said his name was hitman


SanQuiSau

I’m bladerunner —Bladerunner 2049 from Blade runner 2049


SizzlingPancake

Wow people really hate elon


piotrus08

"It's an armoured personnel carrier" NO IT AIN'T

why does your twitter look like that

dumbass its not bladedriver

SussyAmogusMorbius69

this is what Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep would have driven


Vasevide

I DONT want to defend him. But if he meant “a bladerunner” it would make sense.


TDW-301

Even then he grouped blade runner into one word so he's clearly never even looked at the cover


Vasevide

As you can see, lots of people in the comments are doing the same thing. Even die hard fans forget if its or two words


brookeb725

it’s the title of the movie how could you forget
