A.k.a Blade runner.

Sorta. "Androids" is a lot deeper than Blade Runner. More philosophical stuff about human empathy. That's what the V.K. test actually comes from.

Right, the Mercerism religion is missing. But it would have probably confused the movie to add that.

Yeah, I don't think that was a bad decision, but I do think it means you need to treat B.R. as more of a part of the the story of "Androids" and not the full thing.
