No kids

you should read the script, had a better ending

It was dumb. I blame the director, he's a creative guy but he's probably a completely fucking dunce when it comes to space, the solar system and the distances involved.

Was it less feminine? I could feel some feminine meddling in that ending.

I almost think the movie has a Micheal Mann art-over-substance vibe to it and it was stylistic enough for me not to give that much of a shit about the science.

what happened? does he take his dad back with him or does he blow himself up?

>literally nothing happens: the movie
>In space!!!

The worst thing about this film was the voiceover. It seemed tacked on, like at the last minute someone worried people wouldn't get it so they'd better have bladd pittu explaining really obvious shit over the top of some scenes.

Dunno if it actually was a last minute thing or not though

Better than interstellar

if i remember right
>black chick was his step-sister but only finds out after her death
>everyone on the station is gone
>his dad (only on video) shows that they wanted to find other life on the edge of space but found nothing...we are truely alone
>tried to us the tech to create a mini big bang to start life
>sets off station to do this and leave
>his final thoughts are to his mother (no gf in the script,nor any scene on earth at the end)

It was basically the knowledge that we are alone and desperately didn't want to be.

>Daddy issues the movie
>boo fucking hoo daddy was an alcoholic
God it's such trash

Its insanely boring and unrealistic

Nobody gives a damn shit that it was filmed on film, I don't know why people keep mentioning it.

Not even close

This. Whatever you may think of the plot and characters, it had a nice aesthetic and atmosphere.

I imagine the pitch meeting went a bit like this

>I want to make a slow ponderous sci-fi that tells us something about being human
>sounds great, what's it about?
>what?
>you know, what's it saying about being human
>oh well, like it's gonna have brad pitt in it
>okay..
>and Tommy Lee Jones as his father, who brad is looking for
>so, it's about human relationships
>what?
>you said you want to make a slow ponderous sci-fi about being human.
>yeah, and?
>So what's about being human do you want to say?
>oh, I dunno lol, beware of space monkeys?

They are both dumb for different reasons. Despite Ad Astra taking a big shit on plausibility, Interstellar is even MORE implausible, and Interstellar had Kip Thorne as an advisor. Quite an achievement, Nolan is truly a master. Ad Astra is just blockheaded about how far away Neptune is, attenuation of electromagnetic signals at that distance, specific velocity of thrusters, stuff like that.

sounds pretty poignant, if not immaturely nihilistic when handled incorrectly.
4/5 script ending

>dude flies to mars then neptune
>fights space pirates and rabid space monkeys
>accidentally murders entire crew trying to stow away on spaceship
>blows up dad's ship with a nuke
>literally nothing happens

I mean, I have mixed feelings about the film but let's not pretend like it was like some two hour exposition dump

Watch this film on drugs it’s a mesmerising dreamscape, doesn’t matter if it makes sense.

>we are truly alone
>there are no aliums
I realized this when I was 20

Probably given the scope of the universe
We are part of an alien

Thought the ending fitted more the tone of the whole script.Imagine the whole Roy being alone while traveling to the station feeling but over the whole ending and with a far reaching meaning
not like this honestly, to lose all hope of ever conquering the universe only to find MAYBE lesser life forms.
The idea was the we expected someone to contact us back (maybe like in contact) but no one was advanced enough and we only heard static.

>It was basically the knowledge that we are alone and desperately didn't want to be.
So the same exact message found in the actual film

Read the script, in the movie they gave off more of the muh family, muh home feeling.
The script had the we are alone and best make the best of it

how autistic am I for repeating the exact same monologue everyday before work?

>>his dad (only on video) shows that they wanted to find other life on the edge of space but found nothing...we are truely alone

So not finding life on Neptune means theres no life in the universe? What a fucking retard.

>>tried to us the tech to create a mini big bang to start life

Capeshit MCU tier trash

The Tommy Lee Jones satellite wasn't trying to find life on Neptune you absolute spack. It was positioned as far away from human radio signals as possible so it could detect alien transmissions unimpeded.
