I'm assuming everybody here has seen Blare Runner? Obviously I'm not inside Yauch's head, but you you know, the Nexus 6's featured in the movie have the urge to return to Earth when their 4-year lifespan has been used up. Trying to find ways to stay alive.

I think I have said as much in other threads. I say it again here to illustrate YR's point. Just based off his Nexus 6 line alone, he put me right into his POV. I would also love to hear what else was going through his head at this time.
Never thought about that verse like that, good insight.
Just loved it because its my second favourite movie, now it means more.Thanks
