So, if somebody disagrees with you and likes this movie, he or she is a shill? Did your mommy raise you to be incredulous when someone doesn't share your opinion? I missed the scene where she had cum on her face. But Jim didn't know that was going to happen when he did what he did. If somebody had murdered Hitler in 1910 before Hitler did anything heinous it would have worked out great for the world, but that guy would still be a murderer. What seems unlikely about Arthur is that he's the only life-like (from the waist up, anyway) android on a giant luxury liner with 5,000 passengers. The characters' ages were never mentioned. She could pass for thirty, and he could pass for thirty-four, so no big deal. It was the momentum of the rotating ship that was acting on their bodies when they released their magnetic boots. They just continued to move outward, but from our point of view it looked like they were going down. You're right, dennismonares510, this movie is entertainment. I'm not "dabbing my eyes," but I enjoyed it very much. There appear to be a lot of people who require perfection, or near perfection in every plot point and scientific detail. Theirs is a sad existence, since there must be very few movies they are able to enjoy. I would have just lied to her, as he did, but not told the robot dude about it. Problem averted. She would eventually calm down and accept him, but she would file it in her mental rolodex containing each and every wrong thing he ever said or did since the moment they encountered each other, then whenever she got pissed off she would bring it out and use it to make him miserable. I remember taking my parents to see "A Christmas Story" back in the '80s. They seemed to be liking it well enough, until the scene where the kid's mother puts a bar of Lifebouy soap in his mouth and it's reddish-brown. They both said "that's not the color Lifebouy soap was in 1940!" and they couldn't enjoy the movie anymore. This made an impression on me, and I vowed never to be that way about movies. It did seem odd that on an enormous ship carrying 5,000 people in ocean liner luxury, there was only one human-like android. I don't think Jim was a mechanic in the sense that he did oil changes at the local garage back home. I think he was more like an engineer. And the original poster's comment contradicts his own statement that "anyone can be a writer." You're right, slickr12345, happy endings are okay. Maybe not all the time, but at least some of the time. There's a lot of nonsense, mainly from literature professors, that happy endings are necessarily bad, and people buy into it. They can't see quality in anything unless it's dark and miserable. Their bodies were probably there, but there was no reason to show them in the movie. Adding children to the movie would not have made it more exciting. Some people are not interested in having children. Or perhaps one or the other of them was infertile. As opposed to linguistically illiterate viewers, who say "you and I" when they should say "you and me." Believe it or not, for some people, a year with lots of really awesome video games is not much of a fulfilling life. Actually, most of the posts on this movie are negative comments. I liked the film very much, and I am not a "studio shill". This is an informal forum about fictional movies. It is not a scientific journal, a dissertation, or a term paper. Citation of sources is not required. Do your own research. It was not their personal hibernation pods they were thinking of using. Those could not be used to go back into hibernation. It was a special medical pod that could be programmed for hibernation, but there was only one.
