and frankly some of the acting is sub-par

Fun fact: Sean Young approached the project because of a passionate desire to play Pris, while Darryl Hannah was originally sent up for Rachel. Ridley Scott, being a misogynist douche, decided that Pris had to be blonde, despite the fact that Sean Young and Harrison Ford clearly have zero chemistry. I still think about what that movie would have been. It happened to Sean Young again in Wall Street, where she petitioned hard to be the bitchy interior decorator (who was a brunette in the script) but instead got cast as Michael Douglas' wife (who was blonde in the script) so that Darryl Hannah could play the bitchy interior decorator, who Oliver Stone insisted had to be blonde. Sean Young has a reputation in Hollywood for being extremely difficult to work with but at the same time, Hollywood has made it extremely difficult for Sean Young to work.

The first option on PKD's "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep" was by Martin Scorcese, who envisioned it as a Robert DeNiro vehicle in 1978.
