When i first saw this film on tv almost 15 years ago, i vividly remember seeing an external shot of Deckard's sedan cut in to the footage from the Shining at the end of the movie.<BR><BR>although i would have only been about 9 or 10 years old at the time, i am fairly certain of what i saw for a number of diferent resons:<BR><BR>1, at the time i recal thinking "shit i thought they were in that cool flying police car"<BR><BR>2, 3 or 4 years ago i found a black and white photo of the sedan on the open road (away from the city) its a birds eye view probably taken from a helicopter. this isn't how i saw the car in the movie, it was definatly shot from a low angle.<BR><BR>3, in Future noir Paul M Sammon talks about Ridly Scott and a small crew taking the car on the back of a trailer to the hills around Burbank, to film the interear shots of Deckard and Rachael.<BR><BR>can some one please let me know that i am not emagining the hole thing.<BR>chears<BR><BR>

I'm surprised nobody answered this yet. You are referring to the "happy ending" as tacked on to the original theatrical release. Look at <!-- BBCode u2 Start --><A HREF="http://www.brmovie.com/Magazine/BR_Magazine_P61.htm" TARGET="_blank">this page</A><!-- BBCode u2 End --> (and the following page) of the Blade Runner magazine.

thanks for that <BR>i was starting to think no one knew what i was talking about.the link you posted has the exact same photo i described and i have found a sory bord (in future noir)of the ending sequence dipicting a number of external shots of the car.<BR><BR>i would be very interested if anyone can add anything to this.

The sequence will (hopefully) be restored in one of several versions of the movie that is supposed to appear on the <!-- BBCode Start --><I>very</I><!-- BBCode End --> special edition (not to be missed) DVD when it does eventually come out (by no later than 2019, I hope).<BR><BR>
