In the future I think that if their was an apocalypse it will be because of a nuclear war between China, The United States of America, and North Korea. I think that most of the entire world will die and that everything will under a cloud of nuclear cloud of debris. There will not be anything left in the world and everyone will be dead, so if that happens then I think that will be my future.
I think that my future will be mostly similar as with the nuclear war, but in my future no one will survive at all so that is the biggest difference between my future and the book or movie's portrayal of the future.

Copy and paste link above for an awesome picture of a bomb.
In the scene when Deckard and Rachel first meet, the lighting is very dark throughout the entire scene usually only showing half of a characters face. The dialogue throughout the scene is very business like, and very formal. The dialogue in the scene almost suggested hostility in my opinion. The two characters were really cold to one another and they seemed really witty. The costumes in the scene were not anything special, Rachel looked like any ordinary secretary and Deckard looked like a futuristic Indiana Jones. This relates to the rest of the movie because the rest of the movie is also filmed in almost complete darkness which makes the movie very mysterious. I think that is was made to be a darker film because of the mysterious nature of Deckard and also of the future world in 2019.
The dialogue in the scene tears in the rain was very moving towards both the audience and the viewer. Ric's speech about how his memories will be lost forever once he dies and it is just a really sad part because he is describing all of these things that no one has ever seen before and i dont know it was just moving. I think that listening to Ric describe all of his memories is what caused Deckard to have a flash back about the dove flying through the sky, and I think that this is the time that Deckard finally realizes that he is an android and not a human. The music in the scene was very tranquil and seemed to almost reenforce the fact that both Deckard and Ric had these awesome memories that were not real and they would all be lost. The lighting in the scene was very dark besides Deckard's flash back of a dove flying through the sky.
The future for Deckard and Rachel is very simple. They are going to run away and live in some random area in northern California and are going to be tracked down and killed by some other Blade Runner. They are going to live in like a log cabin or some abandoned area, and the cop who makes the stick figures is going to come after them and snipe them with a futuristic sniper rifle and kill them both. They will never even see it coming, and it will be double points because both shots are going to be head shots ha. Another possibility I could see happening is that Deckard and Rachel move to an off world planet and start a rebellion with all of the androids.
My research topic so far is Tattoo's, my research about my topic is going about average I would say. Mostly the history of tattoo's are found in books, but yet all of the studies and like future things are about journals. In the books i have ordered, it gives a complete history of tattoos in many different cultures and also states the different ways that tattoos were given in past cultures. Most of the studies I have found so far that are up to date or recent are about the different techniques used to remove tattoos, and also another big study i liked was about the transfer of diseases while getting tattoos. I have yet to find a solution to this main problem (how to avoid geting different diseases from needles), but i think one of the books i ordered might have a solution. So all i need to do is just go back to Alden and look at different sources.
