Someone who is big into sci-fi told me that the reason "Crystal Skull" was so ****ed up was because of Lucas. Spielberg and Ford fought to change the plot but Lucas insisted it revolve around aliens, and eventually it came to the point that the film wasn't going to get made unless Ford and Spielberg caved in so they just said, "**** it, we'll do with George's way and collect a paycheck." Not sure how accurate any of this is, but the larger point is that as long as Lucas doesn't have anything to do with the new "Blade Runner" script it'll probably be an okay movie.
There's a lot of documentation about the end of the original movie, and how the happy ending voiceover was added at the demand of the studio. The insinuation that he was also a replicant, along with the fact that she probably was going to die soon just like the other replicants, were both buried in that film. So it really depends with this new film on how they want to take it: he could be a replicant or he could be human, she could be dead or she could be just as old as he is, it really just depends on where they want to go with the plot. All I know is, at his age there won't be a lot of running. Maybe they should call it "Blade Walking" (with tennis balls on the front feet).
