Wait so obviously one of them died first of old age so why didn't the one who didn't die not suspend themselves and get to at least see the new world or whatever because it seems kinda implied that they both just died of natural causes

In the sequel we'll find that one of them ate a toxic fruit growing from that tree they planted and died, and the other killed themselves out of grief.

See it's deep 'cause it's like Adam and Eve

I like how he's a mechanic but while falling in love with her frozen rear end he reads all her books and it makes him fall in love if he liked reading so much he wouldn't have wound up a mechanic

He's an engineer so it makes perfect sense that he is accustomed to a lot of reading but also doesn't understand women

Because they are settlers starting a new colony and sometimes a functional ecosystem involves fruits that are harmful to humans.

I alone can see through the media bias.

I'm also stupid on a scale that can only be measured in Reddits.
This movie made me want to do fake math. Like ok how many people are on this ship? How much booze was put away for the three months at the end of the trip when everyone is supposed to be awake, that it lasted 2 people 50 years or w/e? What is the upshot of them having the lights on and using a bunch of resources for the entirety of two adult lifetimes? The cost in just water would be enormous, not even counting their stupid, ugly tree. Life aboard that ship is a zero sum game, and I wanted to see how theyd hosed everyone else over at the end of the trip. Missed opportunity imo but yeah would have created mixed messages.

Im on the spectrum btw, OBVIOUSLY.

I thought the class distinction part was dumb, especially because even though space guy was in the lowest class it let him drink as much as he wanted, go out in space as much as he wanted, eat at fancy restaurants, etc. and only stopped him from getting good breakfast and coffee? Dumb IMO.

This is a movie justifying rape in longform. It gets you in the head of a raper, that's the entire premise, is to bring you around to sympathy for those who want to own others as sexual property. Oh and it's about MEN go FIGURE.

My goal was to teach him self-worth. SELF-worth, so he doesn't have to need anybody, he can bond with other people as an equal and not a needer, and definitely not by necessity a fucker! Get your head out of your dick hole!

Its definitely earthlike with its own biosphere buuut fun fact: that doesnt necessarily make its lifeforms edible to us. Our digestive and immune systems are evolved to deal with stuff from our planet. Its quite possible that we'd still have to import our own species for eatin' on an otherwise perfectly survivable and plentiful alien world. The only way around it is genetic engineering.

I think the ending of the movie should have been Chris Pratt dies saving the ship and Jlaw would be faced with the same choice to wake up someone up for companionship or spend the rest of her life alone and have the movie close with her looking at another capsule.

that does sound good. I hate hollywood.

They also could have just swam around in the pool if the ship was bound and determined to blow up the water would protect them from the flames and when it turned into steam they'd have plenty of air to breathe

Also he didn't hold her down and rape her when she was all weak from coming out of space sleep.

If you're gonna get all championy about rape, Pick, you should figure out there's a big ol distinction between being creepy and raping a girl

Yeah there's also that and the fact that he gave her lots of space, first when she was first awakened and then again when she was mad at him. Except for the initial act of trapping her in his situation against her will, he didn't play any manipulative psychological games or use any other form of coercion.

I have two questions:

1) Does he like to get busy with his sister?
2) Does he want his dick cut off?

If the answer to either of these two questions is "yes," then I've got bad news for your friend...

Chris Pratt, after finally winning JLaws trust, leans in for a kiss.

"Oh sorry, I'm gay."

Five minutes later Chris Pratt's lifeless body is floating outside the nearest airlock.
