Reaction to Blade Runner and Jan.6 class

During the winter break, I watched "Blade Runner" as the homework related to our topic bioethics. frankly speaking, I don't like such kind of SF movie, but the topic was interesting and very controversial. In the movie there is the concept of replicant. The perfect replicant has further ability than human beings, and also it has emotion like us. About replicant, maybe there are many disputable topics. First of all, how can I call them? Can I call it a robot? Or a creature? In this blog, I unconsciously use the word "it" to point out the replicant. Is that all right?
