Niel Breen is the correct answer. All of his movies involve him being the greatest person to have ever lived...ever. He heals people using magic rocks, he is the best hacker in the world, he knows all the government secrets, he owns 15 broken laptops, he's won every military medal ever, every woman wants to bang him, assassins are always trying to kill him. Shit's crazy

It’s a metaphor for climate change, so the ending of the book would make little sense in this context, where the catastrophe is real. The point of the film is whether a parent is willing to sacrifice their own life to make the world a livable place for their children. Most parents would.

The bad faith arguments around this film are really weird.

I don’t remember the film even mentioning the catastrophe being caused by God. I saw the film as more of a universal reckoning in line with cosmic horror. Nature needing a sacrifice made on the basis of love as an act of protest against the otherwise senseless cruelty of humankind. I thought it was good.

That’s still fiction, it’s a story. I really doubt anyone who watches this movie thinks that one day a group of four people who represent the four horsemen of the apocalypse will appear and ask them to sacrifice a family member for the survival of the world. You’re being weirdly paranoid that this movie will somehow make ppl religious. Kinda funny, I imagine this is what the Soviet government used to sound like.

It just comes across as a film where you don't really care what happens, like a lot of the Marvel movies that aren't part of a chain, i.e., The Avengers movies.

The main character was so poor I was starting to wonder if she was actually going to become Black Panther or not, I would have been satisfied if it were someone else and it wouldn't have surprised me.

Get to Kang already and stop releasing this tripe.
