Nemo was a Jerk! in the movie


Why provide the survivors with the tools and give them weeks upon weeks to build up their camp, only to give them a few hours to raise the ship! What a maroon!

reply

Why did he just give them hours to raise the ship? Did you forget that there is a volcano about to erupt and destroy the island? And that was basically Plan B.

Because pirate ship came only hours before volcano eruption (which isnt true in the book anyway).

You're the maroon. The pirate ship had just arrived, and the volcano decided to erupt on it's own. There's no way to predict that.
