UzuMaki NaRuto I love movies of this type that do it right probably as much as I love movies with deep, powerful and inspiring plot. I mean sure, it’s very over the top and comedic, while dramatic and heartbreaking at the same time but the plot isn’t a lot which is why the movie is so good. If it had a deep plot like other very good movies it wouldn’t have been as good because of the fact that “hey there’s a big space rock and we have to stop it” is the main goal and it works both for the movie and the viewer.

[@RollTide1987]

Inner part of my brain: "There's no way a spacecraft would 'crash' like that in zero gravity." Me: *just starting my third bag of popcorn*

[@WaveForceful]

yeah it would just shatter into a cloud of debris that would likely destroy the shuttle behind it too. the expanse explains things like this realistically. For example if a ship gets destroyed it becomes shrapnel that is dangerous to anything hat fly's by, even armored ships. The issue is, the shuttle was hit and "went down" as if it was with an atmosphere. Losing it's main engine wouldn't make it spiral out of control seeing that space shuttles have thrusters than can correct that roll rather easily, and it made no sense for the shuttle to lose all of it's ARC thrusters after just having one of it's main engines hit. It would of been more realistic for that rock to have just shattered the entire shuttle because at what was it? mach 30?., hitting that rock would be like being hit by a bomb.

[@davidfernandobacquerieestr4940]

@@WaveForceful Shouldn't the giganteous mass of the Asteroid create it's own gravity field? If a shuttle is going directly at it's direction at enough speed, then there's no way for the manuever thrusters to stop the chaotic trajectory from crashing in the asteroid, plus, shuttle's thrusters are attached very closed to the main engine, so it is not impossible that some of the thrusters were damaged, causing a total failure of the emergency manuevering engine.

[@tylerdonald6050]

Actually. Around an object that big, it musters its own gravitational pull and strength.

[@Nickallsopp92]

But it wasn't zero gravity. Considering the size of the asteroid, it was basically the equivalent of a small planet with it's own atmosphere and gravitational pull. The gravity is obviously less than on earth but it would definitely have enough allow a crash landing.

The shot of Oscar trying to get his helmet on in the final moments reminds me of the Columbia disaster. The investigation board said some of the astronauts weren't properly strapped in during the re-entry phase, which may have caused premature fatal injuries when the spacecraft lost control. I wonder also whether Rick Husband, commander of Columbia when she broke up, mirrored the film scene and ordered the crew in the final moments to try to protect themselves in an ultimately futile attempt to survive when they realised the ship was disintegrating. For all its scientific inaccuracy this scene reminds me a lot of the disaster. RIP Rick, Willy, KC, Michael, David, Laurel and Ilan.

[@matthewcaughey8898]

Every commander in those situations has a hope that just maybe there’s a slim chance they’ll stay alive or the ship will hold up just long enough for the crew to attempt a bail out. Had Columbia’s left wing held up a bit longer it’s possible the crew might have been able to bail out. But once they hit the denser atmosphere the RCS became ineffective and without one wing the orbiter went into a 360 spin that tore the vehicle apart. Had they implemented the crew cabin ejection system the crew might have been able to cut away the fatally crippled orbiter and fall into denser atmo which would have allowed them to bail out

[@stratiosastero6880]

@@matthewcaughey8898 columbia lost the wing during reentry.. look at challenger disaster,the crew cabin did separate from orbiter after it disintegrated,crew did not die instantly,there was evidence that some buttons on the panel could not be pushed by explosion or impact with water and there was emergency air supply thingy used by atleast three crew members. but most likely these emergency air supply were useless at that height,it would not save crew from losing consciousness... in case of columbia crew cabin disintegrated during shuttle break up,there was no way for anyone to be conscious for even few seconds,it was instant depressurization.

One of the best Films I have ever seen

[@jakepancake7176]

I always wondered what happened to the Mob guy on Harry’s crew but at 2:29 you can see him getting sucked out rip

[@doge8825]

2:29* why does everyone get this wrong... at 2:27 and 2:28 you see Bear getting hit by glass.

[@truthorhappiness]

Why is this movie so damn good?! It’s the gift that keeps giving decades later…wait…decades? 😮…

[@EvilRickQueenVita]

I forgot there was a time when Owen Wislon was like the Sean Bean of films & got killed in every movie he was in.

[@Locadel2003]

Anaconda, the haunting, Armageddon

[@garykunsman448]

The only movie that gets better every time you watch it.

[@carsonpeterson758]

The movie was so bad you root for the asteroid to hit earth

[@Razgriz-Flight-Spotting]

this scene includes of many winks has Star Wars Empire strike back with the falcon millennium in the asteroids field

[@kunlesanders]

I was thinking the same thing.

[@guicaldo7164]

Michael Bay was such a good director at that time! The action scenes, that, in his recent movies, are known for being bad and confusing, were so good earlier! Fast-paced, but still thilling and dramatic.. Michael, if you ever happen to read this, I ask you: Remember the way you were earlier, and become that way again! You still can do good movies, instead of being doomed to make b-movies for the rest of your career!

[@Pods_Vids]

Gui Caldo you do realize that everyone hated this movie when it came out right?

[@ImmortalSynn]

jason994 You do realize that nothing you said is actually accurate. Movies that people "hate" don't go on to be the #1 in box office on four different continents, and become one of the first action-dramas to gross over a half-billion dollars. Try not to confuse your opinion, with actual fact. ;)

[@guicaldo7164]

ImmortalSynn Exactly! I didn´t watch the movie, but people say it was actually really good.

[@NACLGames]

+ImmortalSynn By that definition, Bay's recent movies aren't movies that people "hate" either, because they're some of the highest grossing movies of all time. Strangely, this movie was criticized (initially) for many of the same things Transformers was. Confusing action scenes, poor taste in humor, racial sterotyping and a total disregard for reality and physics. Funny that. Personally I just think that in today's (social media interconnected) world it is much easier for initial negativity to be blown into full on bandwagoning hatred, where the actual facts matter little. Today's audiences can hardly tell the difference between good, bad or no CGI for example. I've seen comments of people panning Terminator for its "unrealistic CGI" unskinned Terminator that was actually a puppet, not CGI, or sequences in Pirates of the Caribbean that were done using practical effects but were also called "CGI" by audiences. And acting and writing? The interpretation of that is probably worse, considering the average internet critic can barely follow a conversation that doesn't consist of one-liners or memes.

[@OpenMawProductions]

+ImmortalSynn Box office does not equal popularity or quality. This film was critically mixed upon release.

[@edgarflores8436]

We are going down!!!! OMG... I love this movie... and I will defend it forever. Its a good movie with great CGI, Soundtrack and Beloved Characters...

[@askew11729]

When they accept their fate And the captain says good luck freedom. Like this is it no hope Independence is done

[@RafaelPolanco]

I had this movie on VHS and watched it a lot as a kid, this scene made me so sad every single time.

[@wolfsoldner9029]

I feel bad for Owen Wilson :(

[@Top10soon]

His helmet cracked:/

[@1326evolvedGodzilla]

I wish Oscar alive but he was awesome character

[@sca8217]

There's so much wrong in every moment of thsi scence and yet i do not have the heart to point it out. So loved this movie as a 90s kid!

[@johnreiley4754]

Jesus .... where are all the movies like this? this was a great movie

[@Savetocss]

When coffe cup goes down, it gets me like Hell... omg...Its like in that moment we as a species are all doomed, cannot explain it

[@Antattack22]

Could just imagine this scene in theaters how quite it must have been

[@Locadel2003]

One of the few movies where Owen Wilson dies🥺

[@b.m.2191]

Anaconda movie too

[@Kataang101]

The performances in this movie were actually very good. The movie's pacing was just going a million miles per hour and the writing was just so far out there. Other than that it could have been a stellar movie
