So what really happened in 'Total Recall' .... 30th Anniversary

[Saysumthinfunnymike]

This is a classic Action/Sci-Fi film to me btw but I've never determined if all that shyt really happened to Quaid or not...

Total Recall Ending: Was It A Dream The Whole Time?
They explain it very well.

 

[FlyGuy]

Greatest movie of all time

Quaid got lobotomized

 

[OmegaK2099]

"2 Weeks!"

 

[Tasha And]

The whole thing was part of his ego trip.

 

[Saysumthinfunnymike]

I don't think it was a dream. Seemed like he had visions that sorta came true even before he went to recall

 

[Mortal1]

I always felt the last line confirmed it was a dream.

Like everything based on a PKD work (loosely or not) you gotta just assume it was a dream, the character was on a crazy trip, they were going mad or all of the above. The dude loved his speed and psychoactives.

I know 2049 kinda clouds it a bit? But Deckard in BR was also 100% a replicant.

It’s really only Ridley Scott’s 17th director’s cut or whatever that implies heavily he’s a replicant. Seeing a bunch of different versions first, and I never felt he was one

Same. What's got me fukked up though is that Ridley Scott has said in interviews that Deckard is a replicant even after he, Harrison and Rutger (RIP) have stated that he wasn't before. It marks the first time I've gone against the word of the creator.

Yeah maybe.. I gotta watch it again soon it's one of my favorite movies from that era

Yeah I’m pretty sure blade runner 2047 confirms Deckard was human as well.

I felt that it was real. Think about it, if you're in a dream, are you actually going to ask yourself if you're dreaming or not? Unless you're that conscious of a dreamer, I don't see how that's possible.

I dunno man the whole thing went exactly as he wanted for his Egotrip.
