No kidding! I've seen some people defend the movie by claiming that anyone would do the same as Chris Pratt's character and wake up someone because they're so lonely. But you would had all these distractions and the robots are intelligent enough that you can have an actual conversation with them. It's way better than just Wilson. Yes, people really need companionship, but a lot of people have survived without it for decades _by choice_ and as mentioned, when you have life-like androids to talk to that can almost fool you into thinking you're talking to a real human, that _really_ alleviates the loneliness. That's basically the best situation to live alone in, and yet people are convinced they would willfully sentence someone to death and the same fate out of that selfishness. I've been isolated for months at a time in my life, without talking to a single person. You get used it.

TitanicLover93 Not applying any sort of thought is a terrible way to watch a movie. It's a movie that thinks it's cute, but is actually incredibly sociopathically cruel. It's not just that the three "friends" gaslight Will Smith; it's the fact that they gain financially almost immediately once it comes to light at the big board meeting at the end and never get their comeuppance for what is an incredibly disgraceful act. And that's not even getting to the bizarre twists.

From the countless commercials I saw, I was under the impression that they both accidentally woke up, I was on board for a good looking Sci-Fi movie with little plot about two people who normally wouldn't have been more than passers-by trying to survive a ship falling apart and get back into hibernation. I'm kinda upset that that's not what this is, feels like they should have done that or a 10 cloverfield lane style thriller.

Sounds like this is a similar case to Collateral Damage: A script that was assigned the completely wrong tone and genre by the studio. After hearing the actual plot of Collateral Damage, I think it had the potential to be a good dark comedy. However, they turned it into a heartfelt holiday drama for some reason. And in case of Passengers, much like they already stated, sounds like the script was more meant for a horror sci-fi flick

That's a huge issue I have with a lot of "romance" films as of late (Twilight and Fifty Shades especially). They feel like horror stories being written by people that don't know that the concept is scary and confuse "genuinely damaged individual" with "misunderstood project." So they just add a few sexy scenes and give the damaged character a sad monologue where they admit their troubled life, thinking that suddenly justifies their shitty behaviour and they're instantly forgiven. It's crap.
@trtx847 жыл бұрын
Ally Gator Animator It's similar to something Folding Ideas discussed in a video last year after BvS. Modern superhero movies have begun portraying their heroes as always in the right, justifying their actions outside the law because there are bad guys that must be stopped. Hell, look at how popular "anti-heroes" have become. Frank Underwood, Rick Grimes and Negan, Walter White, Don Draper... We're presented with bad people doing bad things but slowly they go from being flawed but ultimately morally centered to outright super-villans. Yet they're the main characters so our brains draw the line to "hero" and refuse to accpet the reality.

I would have liked the ending where both of them dies while fixing the ship and there isn't much data left about them. Kinda like nobody knows what they did - only audience knows. Or Jim just imagined that he wake the Aurora up and all is just his in his head. Like mental health issue. And he does fix the damn ship but is kinda nuts hero who people don't get - or dies while realizing at some point that Aurora isn't true. This was a beautiful movie and had so much potential to be anything. The basic story wouldn't been that boring if at least the ending would been slightly changed. Also.. There should have been more time build with Laurence Fishburne's character so maybe the death would have felt more as a deeper impact. Or overall we really didn't know the character's story - it just felt more like Chris Pratts character's creepy stalker diary. All the time I was waiting that in the end Jim just wakes up and it was his dream while he was in the pod the whole freaking trip. They just too much wanted to focus on creepy heterosexual romance. Only thing I like that they didn't make that those two breed all over the ship - what was I guess one of the original ideas.

They honestly could have fixed their "fix" by having wake up a group of people, targeting those who could help him fix the ship (and Aurora), have him be forthwith with the fact that he woke them up because he was going insane, and when Aurora starts getting wise that she can't really help with repairing the ship, have Jim have to explain himself to not only her but also the rest of the group, who would definitely be disgusted with him while trying to help him fix the ship. That's a drama that has a moral grey-ness that doesn't make you 100% dislike the main character.

Rough quote from the movie. "I read all your books and I fell in love with you." No you sicko you became infatuated with her! There's a fucking difference! What might have made this work is if he legitimately didn't realize he had woken her. Some kind of split personality due to the isolation.
@xxoxia7 жыл бұрын
Also, no, he doesn't die in the script. It is basically how the movie played out, except in the original draft, the ship problem causes the pods to eject from the ship, which makes it to where he's saved Jen's life by waking her. They repopulate the ship by using the sperm bank (there are frozen sperm and eggs), so by the time the ship gets to the new planet, there are generations of new people to populate it. I think it would make it more of a thriller if it had been entirely from her POV. Start the movie with her waking up, not knowing what's going on. She sees him, just some random guy standing there, with no one else around. "Who is this guy?" kind of thing.

Be a kind of crazy tragedy to have this repeat over and over again. Until someone just decided to kill themselves instead of waking up another person.

You know, I actually don't think they would have needed to go the horror movie route to make it work. The way I see it, Chris Pratt wasn't a monster himself, he just happened to commit a monstrous act in a moment of horrible desperation. You can then have them dealing with the reality of what he did. So, instead of it being a creepy rapey sort of movie, it could be a rather heady examination of a seriously complex and horrible situation. That would actually make for some good sci fi. Of course they wanted to make it more of a disaster movie for the third act, so obviously that route wouldn't work. Given the direction they went with it would have worked for him to die at the end. However, I think it would have been quite interesting to go with an ambiguous ending where they both live and are well aware of what he did but we never actually see what happens to them in the long run. Ultimately, I think I felt a lot more sympathy for Jim than most people did. Don't get me wrong, what he did was horrible, but the situation he found himself in was so extreme I honestly couldn't say that most people, myself included, wouldn't end up doing something equally extreme. In other words, you can never know what you'll do when the shit hits the fan. The movie just would have been so much better had they focused more on that conflict rather than going off into the generic space disaster direction. And yes, Michael Sheen was great.
@MontyPythonFanatic27 жыл бұрын
I honestly was expecting this movie to be far more What the Fuck Hollywood than it was. I kept waiting for Pratt to do something that couldn't be explained (albeit not justified) as a consequence of prolonged isolation or desperation, e.g. trying to get Lawrence pregnant. I was also worried that, when he planted the tree, the movie would treat THAT as a grand romantic gesture and then Lawrence would forgive him. So I guess I was never really angry because I expected so much worse. That said, the more I think about it, the sketchier Pratt's character becomes. I think the film really needed to do more to emphasize that Pratt was losing his mind, such as extending the number of years and showing him acting less and less restrained. He should have been at least tipsy when he opened up Lawrence's pod, and doing so should have snapped him back to reality. The suicide attempt should have either been eliminated or moved to post-opening the pod, to suggest he hadn't really ever thought of suicide and suggest that he is struggling to come to grips with what he did to Lawrence. He needed to have a visually obvious moment of clarity after opening up the pod, and be acting with obvious intent to make up for what he did. Making his act into a moment of weakness, instead of a seemingly calculated decision, would have made his character more redeemable and tragic as opposed to skeevy and morally twisted.

So your way has some flaws. It'd much creepier if Jim was shown to have simply saw this beautiful babe, got his tools and got her out with no though to the harm it'd do to her rather than if Jim who saw Auhora after nearly killing himself mistook that as a sighn in his warped state, wrestled on how waking her could ruin her future but save him. Also he definitely thought of suicide before this during his year of isolation

@VegimorphtheMovieBoy7 жыл бұрын
My guess is studio notes/script doctors/interference most likely (unless the director and producers had something to do with it too). I haven't seen the movie yet but based on the description Brad and others have given about it, it was changed quite a bit from the original script which I have read. Like the reason the pod and later ship was malfunctioning was kept secret until the climax at the end and the malfunctioning of the ship gets so bad that ::spoiler:: all of the other pods are ejected into space and the passengers inside die, so there was no possible way for the two main characters to go back into hibernation. As a result, by the time the ship reaches its destination, Jim and Aurora's descendants are the one that leave. Jim waking up Aurora isn't dealt with as lightly either with Jim taking a lot longer to contemplate his decision, her being extremely furious and upset at him for a good chunk of the script after she finds out what he did and he emotionally beats himself up for that decision just as long after she finds out.

This is the kind of movie that needs to be remade.

Well you would wait a few years of course and possibly change the title, but the point is instead of remaking 80s classics for the purpose of exploiting nostalgia, we should be remaking films that squadered great ideas to utilize the wasted potential.

Serina Sanchez, you're right. Katniss would've shot him. "I know who you are, Peter Quill! And I will not succumb to your-your....pelvic sorcery!"

I haven't seen the movie but do they at any point bring up the possibility of repairing the pods or whatever then refreezing? Like I'm sure that the robots have technical knowledge about the pods and everything. If he woke up someone who was an engineer and explained to them what his situation was I'm sure they'd be pissed but it's better than dying alone. The worst it could be if they succeed is they loose maybe a year of time?

It feels like Passangers was banking on the fact that they got two of the biggest young stars in Hollywood right now, so the love story aspect was even more important for them to sell. Chris Pratt and Jennifrer Lawrence are good actors on their own right, but I can't feel much chemistry between them. I didn't see it in any interviews.Chris Pratt is married to Anna Faris, so I think he has better chemistry with someone along that caliber of humor, someone who is really funny and a little crazy.

The moment I heard Rothman's name dropped around this, I expected a broken movie.

Let’s consider an alternative script, with Aurora waking up first, then Chief Officer Gus waking up, doing a diagnostics on the ship and finding it was failing… then they ask the ship's computer to find who can repair the ship, they wake Jim up, Gus dies, Jim repairs the ship and saves everybody... then they go into hibernation together and arrive on Homestead II.. A VERY UNCONTROVERSIAL AND BORING STORY. On second thoughts.. would they go into hibernation with the ship travelling on autopilot, with the possibility that there would be more asteroid belts ahead, hitting the ship and damaging the ship with them unable to do anything about it?

Uh huh. And neither of us were asking for that. If you listened to what we said, we talked about how the script was much more provocative and smarter than this film. It really could have been like an Outer Limits movie, but it was dumbed down hardcore, and the controversial elements were too glossed over.

+Francesco Andreoli Truth to be told, that would be more realistic, even if not all of them could be used at any time, it's really hard to buy that the ship doesn't have at lest 2 or 3 emergency stasis pods for exactly such a case, together with tools, physical copies of use and repair instructions as well as spare parts to boot. It's what you'd call a lawsuit waiting to happen. That's not particularly interesting but most realistic, when it comes to being most interesting it's obviously the original horror concept. Well it's more of a psychological thriller concept I guess.

the whole film rests on looking at a beautiful couple with a Chinese fortune cookie philosophy "make the best of your situation".. all the rest is pure baloney. The source idea is: hibernating 5000 people on Earth, arriving at Homestead II, disembarking them. Why a bar? a restaurant? a swimming pool? Just the right size for a couple.. tiny.. not big enough for the 5000 people definitely, which would not need them because they would be disembarked immediately anyway. Spaceship travelling on autopilot without even an android maintenance/repair/service crew?
