I don't think it was denial. Rather I think he was asking if the fly was teleported and reconstructed whole within his body. He likely believed that genetic molecular fusion was possible, but the possibility that the fly ended up inside him reconstructed whole was his first conclusion.
@peterp21534 жыл бұрын
It’s not denial. It’s a pretty relevant question. “Fusion” is a slightly vague answer. It could mean literal physical fusion (I.e., absorption) of fly and Brundle, which would be ok since It’s like mixing 1 part fly with 1,000,000 parts Brundle. Brundle only freaks when he realizes the computer stupidly (but logically) fused them 50/50 down to the genetic and molecular level.

One thing that I love about this scene (and the whole film too) is how the horror of the truth is given gradually and in a crescendo of fear! Brundle is a scientist and after finding out about the presence of the fly in the teleportation chamber he reacts trying to remain logical and scientific, without panicking : he asks the computer what happened to the fly and when he receive the "fusion" answer he may be already suspecting what REALLY happened but he clings to a hope, he is like "ok, stay calm. maybe the fly has been only added somewhere to your body mass, it can be removed, everything is gonna to be allright,..." but then the computer gives the answer he feared the most and he realize that whatever will come he has no hope to stopping it!!!

These might be considered a negligible percentage of Bundle, having predictably been edited out of the relocating as an unnecessary burden. He did entertain the notion of having been purified by the process and that could've been in part from having instructed the teleporter to disregard microbes altogether. A much larger organism, however, might not have occurred to him then just yet. His horror may result from the realization of that oversight and the unfortunate consequences.

Interesting how this scene subtly answers the question of how Brundle wasn't merged with the microorganisms already within the human body; when he assumes that he just absorbed the fly, it suggests that the telepod was programmed to compensate for those kind of natural additional elements, but was 'unprepared' for a separate life-form of such relatively significant mass as the fly.

I know he can't turn back, because movie logic, but when you have a machine that breaks you down atom by atom and reassembles you in a different place, the machine needs to memorize the objects structure. So when he was fused yeah the machine was "confused" about the reassembly, but this scene shows that there is data on both objects pre-teleportation, so it would be possible to reassemble both objects before they were fused in the first place.
@laszlokiss44095 жыл бұрын
George Barbosa I know about that, however only the fusion was shown, but nevermind. If you look at it from a logical standpoint there are a couple of possible solutions to reverse the effect like finding a piece of hair from before teleportation. We know that the teleporter can scan and analyze objects of varying size, so we could theorize that it could create a dna template to reverse engineer Seth and the fly back, but whatever, still one of my all time favorite horror movie.

The problem was the nature in which he had been reconstituted. It was mass-to-mass. The machine literally rewrote his DNA. "My teleporter became a gene splicer." None of his genetic material existed in "clean." So it's not a matter of simply undoing it and separating the two entities. You need the right amount of pure-human DNA (mass thereof) to create a clean human now. That's why he had to reconnect pop 3 and try to use Veronica to get his humanity back.

Basically, in code, it’s just an ‘if’ statement. If this issue happens, abort. He didn’t consider any ifs before jumping in and doing a test on himself…even if there was dust or cleaning toxins in the pod, you wouldn’t want to fuse with that in your dna either. He was drunk/upset at the thought his mrs was banging someone else though…someone as intelligent as him, all said and done, would have considered the need for failsafes. They just would have. -There wouldn’t have been a film to watch if that were the case though, and this is a film after all…Brundle has an extremely high IQ though, so in some ways, not thinking about the potential scenarios is one factor that doesn’t hold up to legitimacy when considering his character in the film.

To have a decision of that life altering scale made for you without so much of an interruption of the run sequence saying....2 elements in pod...are you sure you wish to proceed?? Terrifying to me!! This scene to me is far more terrifying than any gory later scenes with parts falling off and acid burning off hands and legs. The words “Molecular/Genetic level” will never be seen by me the same again it’s actually haunting!! I’ll end with this point looking at this FUSION scene much older now makes me fully appreciate in a way I never did at the time WHY Geena Davis was so adamant about having an abortion. Regardless of people’s views on either side of this issue, I can’t imagine the horror of a Half Brundle/Half Fly/Part Geena’s character growing inside her uterus! No debate from me decades later...Abortion in the context of THIS FUSION SCENE is the ONLY RIGHT DECISION from a self preservation standpoint!!!

In the Italian dubbing of the movie (most likely because at the time the film was released English was not as commonly used as today) Brundle's questions to the computer were read in Italian by Goldblum's dubber while the computer's answers were given with an electronic artificial voice. The computer voice was somewhat garbled and it was even hard to tell if it was male or female (it was similar to the voice used by some early electronic devices or pc, like the speak and say). I think it added a nice touch of sci-fi to the movie but still the original scene is better, just listening to the music gives you a great feeling of fear gradually growing into pure horror!

Because the fly was so small the transformation process was much slower the computer wasn’t sure how to fully fuse them together so The Fly In Seth was being reborn and evolving causing Seth to slowly transform into a Fly. If the subject was much larger he would have instantly transformed. What I don’t get is he had 3 pods why didn’t he just split him and the fly apart. My only guess is by the end Seth’s DNA had been completely rewritten that the computer wouldn’t know how to or wouldn’t be able to split them apart because there wasn’t enough of Seth left because The Fly DNA had completely taken over.

You're wrong, a creature doesn't rewrite its own DNA during it's life. The computer created the Brundlefly DNA, period. To defuse man gene from fly gene, the computer need to be taught what pure human genes are and what pure fly genes are, then identify them in a creature with both. If a host needs to cover all fly genes for defusion to happen then Brundle simply teleport himself with a new fly and use that fly as a garbage can. This would also mean that Ronnie needs to teleport herself in the pods one time to save Seth's life, or at least agree to be scanned in the pods for the computer to learn pure human DNA.

To remove the fly from his DNA after fusion, is on par with trying to restore eggs in their shells, milk in a beaker, and toppings as they were initially after creating an omelette… - no chance. When he realised what had happened, his character knew he was screwed and any attempts to undo would be in vain. The film prolongs his attempts to try to do this though, mainly to a) promote his love of life, and b) build sympathy from the audience.

The reason for the slow transformation into the fly is more for the sake of film scripture…the original Fly movie had an instant transformation, and that film just didn’t work as well with suspense. - his DNA was fused 50/50 with a fly, the size of the two physically is irrelevant really.

@@terminald7064 Like I've pointed out before, defusion is possible if the computer aquire sufficient tools for it. Brundle would need to sit down and develop a new project with his telepod-software (as long as he's able to work in his condition). In a sci fi world where fusion like this can happen, reverse engineering is just as possible because it plays by the same rules of molecular-genetic tinkering. You can't make an arbitrary special pleading case for defusion just because Brundlefly goes through bodily development. What matters is the genetic code. Seth Brundle teleported himself at a certain point in time where he was of a particular age, and did not come out the other pod an elderly man or infant, since that part of his being's design had apparently been understood. Same for Brundlefly. Doesn't matter at what age or state of mutation the organism is in. Wanna know how it's done? Okay. A new housefly has to be scanned in a pod, to map pure fly genes. Then his girlfriend has to step in and be scanned in the same way to map pure human genes. With those tools the computer should be able to identify man genes and fly genes in a hybrid with both types of genes. The new fly is let inside the third telepod, the receiveing pod, while Brundlefly steps into telepod 1. Instead of merging again, the process will now do a swap where all fly genes in all genetic material is transported to the reciever pod and Brundlefly is transported to telepod 2. At that point, the organism stepping out of pod 2 would be Brundle only. In pod 3 there would simply be a mutated fly. If there are gaps in Brundle's DNA that makes him weak as he return to pure human then perhaps he needs to undergo some sort of medical treatment to regain shape and health. I do think that there is a point of no return when it comes to a normal human body vs a deformed human body, so even if all fly genetics were removed, the effect of the mutation he went through would still have repercussions on his human body. If he have lost his ears, he have lost his ears, and might have to wear prosthetic ears the rest of his human life. That was fun to type :)
