Androids in Contemporary Cyborg Cinema
"Both Star Trek’s Data and Blade Runner’s replicates have been interpreted as minority figures whose attempts to ‘pass’ as human can be affiliated with concerns of nationalism, race and the idea of purity". [1]
"Schelde’s Androids, Humanoids and Other Science Fiction Monsters (1993) adopts the intriguing method of viewing SF films as a modern version of folklore, with technology substituted for magic and Capitalist corporations serving as the giants that must be fought".[2]
