 |

I did do a forum search first, and nothing came up, but perhaps this has already been mentioned.
I was lazily watching BHC2 last week, and something in the Gun Club set looked darn familiar, they used Ennis house tile casting for the back of the gun range!

That almost looks like Deckard's lamp on the far left too.

Was about to mention the lamp! I have no reference material to hand to compare it with, though.
BHC2 was directed by Ridley's brother Tony. |

Lamp is similar but no cigars  Too many wrought iron in the design; Deck's is very simple: 4 squared steel rods with just 4 bars on top to hold them together...if I was the designer, I would put that lamp on a square base |

Those glasses on the background shelf look a little like Deckard's David Douglas lighted Champagne glass too.

I've seen that movie a handful of times and I never noticed that. I feel ashamed of myself.
Tony Scott was, as I understand it, a big blade runner fan too.

Good eye!
I don't know if it has already been mentioned but Frasier has one tile in his bedroom, on one of his shelves. I saw it clearly in one episode that took place mostly in his bedroom.
Perhaps, the director/set dresser thought it was the sort of this that Frasier with his art loving character would own. |

Well, since the Director of the movie was Tony Scott, putting those tiles in that set was a given  |

From the color of them they look like the real Ennis house and not a set with repro tile blocks.

According to "Movie locations" that scene was shot at the California Institute of Technology; same locations they had used in the first movie  |
