Brion James
Interesting that he was in this, and Bladerunner.

Brion James was a underated actor, that mostly played bad guy roles in the movies he was in. In Blade Runner he was a renegade replicant, and in Cherry2000 he plays one of Lesters cronies......he does make a reference in a way to BR in C2000 when his failed attempt to rob Sam in the alley with his brother-n-law Earl goes awry, he calls Earl a 'chicken head' which is a term used in the book 'Do androids dream of electric sheep' which the movie BR is based on.

Great post jimmymack7 - thanks for that!
I can't believe I came across C2000, and picked up on Brion James as soon as I saw him.
"Chicken Head" means something entirely different in the hood...wonder if they knew that, and meant it the same way.

I dunno if he did or not.....in the book it meant unintelligent, loser type of person that couldn't pass the physical/mental test to leave earth and go to one of the new off-world colonies.

Okay, so it does not mean the same thing as the inner city slang definition....which is good...LOL
Check your urban dictionary for the meaning I am referring to.
Peace.
