- The end of the chess game in which Sebastian, with help from Batty, defeats Tyrell, is inspired by the real-life "Immortal Game" (so-called) in which Adolf Anderssen beat Lionel Kieseritzky in London in 1851.
- Blade Runner was given poor ratings by most critics in 1982, including Siskel & Ebert. In 1992, the two critics re-evaluated their attitudes toward the film and gave it two enthusiastic thumbs-up.
- Exasperated crews often referred to the film as "Blood Runner".
- A model of the Dark Star spaceship from the film DARK STAR is also used as a building. It can be seen behind the Asain billboard when Gaff's spinner is approaching the Police building.
- The opening sequence was a shot of the I.C.I. Chemical Plant in Wilton, Teesside, UK - very close to Ridley Scott's (and Tony Scott) place of birth.
