Actually he is.

Blade Runner is NOT Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep. Scott hadn't even read the book. He didn't have to: he was making his own story.

Actually, it's "fantasy" in general that's so difficult to write.

You have to keep the entertainment value high, while at the same time not sacrificing suspension of disbelief nor character development.

Funny that the most difficult thing to write is also the least respected artistically.

@MoltenPlastic it was 'based off of Androids..  as it is credited in the films credits.

The several writers worked directcly with Phillip k dick including M Deeley and Syd Mead who brough dick on the set and as the story goes p dick was amazed of just how riteon mead interpreted his vision. The problem with writers today is the fact they either never follow the heart of the material placed before them or simply not being original. the best thing for a write is to listen to old radio drama

@MoltenPlastic I'd say that comics fall into the fantasy genre.

Nice to see McKee quoted at every opportunity.
