CLIP DESCRIPTION:
John Koestler (Nicolas Cage) is refused entry on the alien ship, but allows his son to leave with the The Strangers.
FILM DESCRIPTION:
A time capsule containing a cryptic message about the coming apocalypse sends a concerned father on a race to prevent the horrific events from unfolding as predicted in this sci-fi thriller directed by Alex Proyas (Dark City) and starring Nicolas Cage. 1958: As the dedication ceremony for a newly constructed elementary school gets under way, a time capsule containing student drawings of the future is buried on the grounds and scheduled to be unearthed on the school's 50th anniversary. Instead of submitting a drawing, however, one little girl scribbles a series of seemingly random numbers on her paper before it is buried. Fifty years later, the time capsule is unearthed for a new generation of students to examine. Young Caleb Koestler (Chandler Canterbury) is one of those students. The mysterious sequence of numbers falling into his possession, Caleb takes the paper to his father, Professor John Koestler (Cage), for examination. Studying the numbers, Professor Koestler soon discovers that they aren't random at all, but an encoded message containing the precise dates, death tolls, and coordinates of every major disaster since the time capsule was buried. Not only that, but the document also indicates that there will be three more such events, the last of which indicates a doomsday scenario that appears directly tied to Professor Koestler and Caleb. His desperate plea to authorities falling on deaf ears, Professor Koestler realizes that his only hope for preventing more lives from being lost is to take personal action. Though the author of the prophecies is no longer living, Professor Koestler is eventually able to track down her daughter Diana Wayland (Rose Byrne), and granddaughter Abby, who reluctantly agree to aid in the investigation. As the final date on the list draws near, Professor Koestler enters into a frantic race against time to prevent destruction on a global scale, in the process realizing that in order to save millions of lives, he may have to make the ultimate sacrifice.

CHaotiksY GaminG this movie is from 2009 since 2000 there has been a trending, that the gods of mankind (all of them) where aliens,they came here to teach us. but our primitive minds could not understand that, and the histories of them became legend's, then myths, then gods. and off course we create a lot of lore to explain(floods,creation myths angels, demons, prophecies etc)

[@aahleynave7444]

Innocence and purity of children. Like when Christ Jesus said like this child,by no means if anyone of has a unconditional of heart will enter the kingdom of heaven at Luke 9:47,1 Corinthians 13:11. Read Revelation 21:1-5 that explains the new heaven and Earth bringing out that Jehovah keeps his promise or word. At 1 Timothy 4:8 physical training is beneficial to a little or has some value, however spiritual exercise or godly devotion is beneficial for all things for the life now and the life in the future to come . (It's called the real life. The life we live in now is temporary because people can actually get sick,grow old, and die. If you notice the the first part with physical training or exercise bringing how it is helpful and useful to some degree in life. Even if one trains up as in gymnast because the scripture is Christian Greek. The Greeks knew of ancient gymnastics or calisthenics, the scriptures were giving an example of physical exercise. However, even the most well known Olympians or athletes can get cancer or die in a airplane crash. That is why godly devotion is very important to understand the spiritual benefit of exercise,too.)

Makes sense. And that's actually one of my theories. We have many sources telling about some other-world creatures visiting us. Dating to ancient times. And in Bible, we have angels(our guardians) and demons(evil ones). How did humans learn everything they know today? How did they evolve? What about all the strange messages around the world? Maybe the good aliens are the ones that helped us before. And that's why we call them ''guardian angels''. But what If it's just another race, like us, but more advanced? Also, demons who ''posses'' and abduct people, could just me some hostile races. The space is huge, there are billions of planets out there. Earth can't be the only one with life on it.

Another is the aliens here. Notice that in this movie there are 4 aliens. And in Ezekiel's book there he mentioned too an angel named Cherubim which had 4 faces, and I think maybe the movie just wanted to make it look cinematic that's why instead of 4 faces they decided why not 4 individuals.

[@Stariana19]

@@michaelcueva530 Actually there were four, each has an individual face. It's mistranslationed in some Bible's and in others it's correct. The Cherubim in Ezekiel are four individual angels who each have one face. One has the face of an Ox, one has the face of a lion, one has the face of an eagle and another one has the face of a man. Another description says one had the face of a cherubim . Ezekiel 10:14. Ezekiel 41:18 mentions only two Cherubim. Genesis 3:24. Exodus 25:20 mentions two Cherubim. Also the Cherubim have six wings, not four. Here's the verse. Ezekiel 1:11 two wings joined together (or two upper wings joined together or touching each other totals four upper wings). I used to think it meant they were touching another cherub's wings, but it makes sense that they are four wings two touching each other on either side, then two more lower wings covering their body (one on each side) that's six in total just like the Seraphim angels which also have six wings Isaiah 6:1-8. Revelation 4:8 it mentions 6 wings here too, they are the Cherubim described in Ezekiel 1:5-21. Shalom.

As I watched this scene, I couldn't help but shed a tear as he said goodbye to his son one last time before he watched as they left, because they both knew they would never see each other again, and it would be the last time to say their goodbyes. A father selflessly sacrificing himself so his own child would live... an aspiring sacrifice that all fathers and mothers should do for their children if it meant they lived, and an example of what I would do if it was up to me to save my own children or family. Some of you may think about why they didn't save ALL of humanity, and only took the children and the animals... If you think about it, if they took all humans to a new world to start over and rebuild, like how Noah built the Ark to preserve the lives of every species on the Earth when God created the flood to cleanse the world, who is to say we wouldn't make the same mistakes we did before? Segregation, Discrimination, Racism, Slavery, War, Famine, Pestilence, Violence, Pollution, Terrorism, and our own Self-Destruction... No doubt we are a violent race... If we really were brought to a new world to rebuild, within the next few decades, centuries, or millenium, because of our own recorded history and what we are taught, who is to say we wouldn't repeat what we did before? Today, the new generation would always look back at our history, and would easily point out the mistakes we made along the way that led to today's society. Much like how we look at discrimination and racism today. That's why I believe they took the children over everyone else, because they knew better what NOT to do, for the betterment of a greater society, and make better choices than we did. It was up to them to make a better world... Much better than ours... I love this movie, because it reflects at the destruction we cause, whether intentional or not, and how eventually it would lead to the inevitable end, which is our own annihilation brought on by ourselves. 10/10.

But they are two white kids so it will just be one race. Who will they have to fight? Even tho i believe every race may have evolved from two of the very same parents. So why do we have so many races today. Its because of inviroment and not genetics in my opinion so starting with one race does not matter. We should just focus on love for one another and not see race and realize through out our history that we are all one. I hope we can evolve to my way of thinking currently and just stop the evils in our world 🌎

This movie is filled with religious symbolism, my favorite is the end shot of the boy and girl running towards the tree at the end, which recreates the imagery of Adam and Eve being put on Earth by "God" and then running towards the Tree where Satan the snake tempts Eve to eat the apple. In essence these 2 children arrived pure, and this foreshadows that they will curse their proginy with inevitable trouble "sin" as is part of human nature. I love that this movie bridges biblical folklore and myths with Aliens and Technology. If these aliens came to us, thousands of years ago with their big ships creating brilliant light scatter, brightness, and being difficult to contour from the bottom, they could be mistaken as clouds opening up for the arrival of the angels. The angels in question are those aliens, as you can see they are winged in a subtle way that tempts the viewer to make that connection without recoiling from how gaudy and meretricious the idea is. What if the whole bible story and all the miracles, holy spirits, and angels were just an overseeing delegation of aliens, that prompted our apish, barbaric kind to prostrate to these perceived deities? Either way I need to get off this Ketamine and Angel Dust trip.

SoV Eclipsez That was my thought as well... The ships are not for their benefit, but rather for the physical passengers they must transport. As Angels, they would not be bound by the physical. But in spite of the rescues' "supernatural" gifts. they remain human and therefore would need to be transported in something that could sustain their physical bodies. Elements of the rapture are represented here as well... the children are "caught up" into the sky, and when the ships go trans-light, they are gone in the twinkling of an eye. And then the world is destroyed in fire... This movie encourages me to think about how, as prophecy is fulfilled, it may not take the exact form we think it may. Regarding the origin of species, who is to say that the PHYSICAL manifestation of the creation of all living creatures did not resemble Darwinian evolution. Nobody was there to observe it happening. Make no mistake, I am a creationist and a Christian, but we live in a physical universe which operates under a specific set of laws, which I believe God put into place the moment he said "Let there be light!". God does not break his own laws. DNA has very specific defining instructions which maintain genetic consistency. The genesis account of creation lays out the order in which things were created, in six stages. How long did each stage take? The Bible says six days. The bible also says that to God, a day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years is as a day. Time does not mean anything to God, and it did not mean anything until Man began to measure and record it. For all we know, each stage may have taken millions, if not billions of years. So I can believe the concept of an Earth that is billions of years old. What I refuse to believe is that there was no intelligent design.
