Are there any books or films that scratch the same itch as Blade runner/Philip K Dick? (lemmy.ml)

Hi everyone :) I was wondering if anyone would be interested in chatting about things similar to Blade Runner/Philip K Dick? I've read pretty much all of his books that I get my hands on, but am sadly hitting the point where it's an event when I find one I've not already read. :)

Do any other Science Fiction writers or films scratch the same itch? :)

To throw one of his own into the discussion: We Can Build You is fantastic - much slower, but explores androids, and their impact on the human characters. :)

Snow Crash by Neal Stephenson

Also Alien and Aliens appear to take place in the same universe as Blade Runner.

Awesome! Thank you I'll definitely add Snow Crash to the list! :)

No kidding?! I didn't realise that was a thing! Awesome, I'd be up for rewatching them to find nods and links! :) Thank you, that's really neat
