Moonfall: The Greatest Disaster You've Never Seen
Фильм және анимация
Ever wonder what'd happen if the Moon crashed into the Earth? No? Well Roland Emmerich did. He's not content destroying just Earth anymore. He can't be stopped.

It’s so clear Roland wants to make some kind of galaxy spanning sci-fi epic with some sort of alien galactic civilization…but he’s stuck making earthly disaster movies and just has to figure out how he can cram some kind of galaxy wide implications into them. Like he’s done with Independence Day 2 and now Moonfall. Someone just let him make his alien galaxy epic already!

I got the exact same vibe from those two movies. Man should just make a galaxy-scale disaster movie. Have an evil malevolent force that keeps destroying planets (the logical end-point of other disaster movies if they weren't stopped for a happy ending, lets him do a bunch of miniature disaster movies inside a larger disaster movie) then give the protagonists the job of stopping the disaster force before it reaches Earth.

I watched this movie with a group of fifteen college guys all screaming insults the entire time and it was the greatest film watching experience of my life. My favorite moments were when, during a rare moment of silence, a truck comes flying out of the atmosphere towards the characters and one guy quietly went "Uh oh, Truckfall." At the ending a different guy yelled "Guys, I have bad news. The moon is now British."

Last film I saw in an empty theater was Pulp Fiction July 1994 Danville, VA matinee. I drank a pint of Irish whiskey and smoked 🚬 entire film.
As another only person on earth to see Moonfall, I can vouch for this entire video. For real though, Moonfall flopping was a blessing and a curse. It meant I could see it alone in the theater, which is honestly the best way to experience it. But it also means I'll never get a sequel to watch alone in the theater again.

An "old school crank" means a school crank who is old. The compound adjective "old school" must appear with a hyphen when it's followed by the noun it modifies, as in "old-school crank," otherwise the only logical interpretation is that both "old" and "school" separately modify that noun. The same principle goes for any other compound adjective: A "high school student" actually means a school student who is high.
Gotta love that declaration of how this all sounds like a backhanded complement, followed by dead silence without a single "but".
11:46 This has to be the single most absurd sentence as a plot point in a movie, and accompanied by that music has me laughing so hard I'm in actual pain.
God. This movie. Went to go see it on my birthday with my roommates, sat there in defeated silence with them for twenty minutes, immediately brought my ex to see it the next day. The true beauty of Moonfall is not watching it, but inflicting it on a bunch of unsuspecting poor saps for the first time and watching them slowly give up

I was way to stoned when I saw this the first time, felt like a fever dream. Also, the subtle Halo reference never get old. I’m glad we understand the same humor.

I didn’t think anyone can do the complete opposite of what Nolan achieved. A black hole that took 100 hours PER FRAME to render. Just so it could be realistic. This movie goes “White Dwarf? What’s that? Oh, it’s like a small sun? Don’t have to tell me anything else, I know how the sun works.” And they just went with it. Amazing.

The saddest part for me is that all those NASA workers that Halle Berry sent home after the rocket broke all volunteered to be there when the world was ending instead of with their families.

One absurd thing that I noticed about the movie is how hamfisted it was that the antagonist was an "advanced AI." Like, it not only gave no indication that it was super cunning, but it was actually just incredibly stupid. It had the object permanence skills of a stealth game NPC, and our heroes outwitted it on multiple occasions. My theory is that it wasn't originally meant to be an AI, but during post-production, ChatGPT came out, and they hastily changed the script to get in on the trend.

There's one particular scene where the NASA director was looking at the footage of the scouting mission where the AI was captured on camera for the first time. She sees this footage and says that given the footage, this is clearly an AI, despite the fact that it really didn't indicate that at all? It could have easily been an alien or something. I'm paraphrasing what she said, but the actual line she said was exceptionally bad, and also I'm pretty sure it was dubbed over.

Never let it be forgotten that we may never get the chance of an actually good sequel to an amazing alien film from the late 90's because Emmerich was the one who made a sequel to said film.

I love how the Michael Bay's 20th century disastrous disaster film Armaggedon stated the problems with trying to nuke your space problems away. You know, you have to crack it and split it for an explosion to even be remotely effective. And then in Roland Emmerich's even more disastrous disaster film Moonfall, the government attempts to nuke its problems away without explanation. *Armaggedon dunked on Moonfall decades before Moonfall even came out!*

And people dunked on Armageddon back in the day for having an unrealistic plot. If I recall, it'd still be the same mass peltering down on the earth, just with vastly more surface area, meaning a lot more of it would burn up in atmosphere, which would significantly heat up the atmosphere, as well as put a lot of dust into the upper atmosphere trapping the heat in better. Not to mention there's probably still a ton of chunks big enough not to burn up entirely, meaning instead of one huge crater, you got several still very big craters. I mean, a lot of real world craters came from something you could hold in your hand, and have comparable blast radii to nukes. So shattering the a big asteroid before its impact would be equivalent to just simultaneously setting off a 100 or so nukes across the planet, even somewhat comparable long term effects making the earth significantly less hospitable. If people didn't die from being cooked alive or being in the blast radius of an impact, then we're looking at a situation theorized to have killed the dinosaurs and generally brought about significant changes to the prevalent lifeforms on earth. If I recall, the better solution would've instead been using the nuke on the surface where it wouldn't break, so that force would instead push it into a new trajectory and cause it to miss the planet entirely. But also its a movie and people want to see nukes blow up big things, so whatever.

@@fwg1994Redirection is the best option but you've got to do it a long long time before impact, or it won't move it enough to make a difference. So you've got to detect it years before it hits earth. If you don't have time for that smashing it into tiny pieces with a bomb is probably the best option, yes you will heat up the atmosphere and you might have a few smaller impacts, but it would still be better than doing nothing, especially if you can deflect some of the material away from earth with a big enough explosion.

Moon fall is without a doubt my favourite movie experience of all time. Turned up to the film with 5 friends in suits all to find out that no one else had bought a ticket and so we spent the entire film loudly pointing out how bad it was. Single handedly the funniest movie experience of all time and even then I was bored for half of it at least.
