@@rumpledik2254 yeah that was the joke.
Good story but I can’t get past the fact that in a universe where there’s space travel that there isn’t an attempt to rescue the ship… if you can make it to Mars in 3 weeks then there’s definitely ships that could have rescued them within a year.
World/Earth ended in the story I believe so.. no rescue. Or can’t afford to
it was probably 100% cheaper to cut the loss, i doubt this is the only ship going back and forth to colonize mars
@@mozelac5440 "i doubt this is the only ship going back and forth to colonize mars", proves the point. theres probaly hundereds and im sure 1 or 2 could be diverted to save it but then again earth is dead sp they probaly said fuck it
BABY LISA!
@@northernkaiser7979 Yes, but that is also the point. Lets be honest here, that would take money and resources better used to save thousands from Earth over a couple hundred lost in space. To pretend that that isn't exactly how it would go down, knowing how things work now, is ignorant.
After having watched this really good movie, the only observation I would like to add is for the scene at the 24th year. Movie Recaps mentions that "they go back to cultish and mystical thinking". All previous shots of the ship's exterior show a brightly lit space ship. At the beginning of the 24th year, the exterior of the ship is shown as completely dark. A close up of Mimaroben's eyes show that she cannot see. The way she is going on and on about bringing back the light makes me think that the fuzzy light in the room where the people are sitting is only illuminated so that we the viewers can see the people in that room. In other words I believe those people are living in a pitch-black environment.
one of my favorite movies that i plan to never watch again, also agree
You saw the movie, so what was the probe. What happened?
Holly fuck me Jesus. That is absolutely scary to think about.
I agree. In the year 10 scene, the algae that’s being used as food is starting to turn bad & is a harbinger that all of the Aniara’s systems are gradually breaking down. The astronomer was right about saying Aniara is going to be their coffin.
Agree. Outstanding movie. The dark "sarcophagus" the ship has become in year 24 with the last few starving pathetic dying people is shocking, but outdone in the next scene as the lifeless, 6 million year old ship with its weightless cargo of dust and human bones orbiting a perfect earth-like world is one of the most powerful images I have ever seen in scifi. Brilliant
The odds of that ship actually reaching another planet by just drifting aimlessly (let alone an earth-like world) are absolutely astronomical to begin with
This statement is so much more meaningless than you think it is. "What are the odds of this astronomical event? Astronomical." "The red brick was a brick red color"

It’s not. As long as your family is ok and you let them know you won’t be coming back. Severing your ties will allow you to peacefully go on a journey, wherever that may be. You’re going to die anyways going anywhere on earth, no different from space
id say as long as your happy its fine
The last two minutes Is so brutally narrated with the algae not even caring and millions of years going by I laughed my ass off what an ending .!!

The algae developed human emotions just so that it doesn't care about anything anymore.
Micarah! I love you so much! What are you doing here?
"Even the algae don't care anymore." That made me chuckle in a dark way. Well played.
That was actually pretty goddamn depressing

Well theres a HBO show called Avenue 5 which is a hilarious version of this concept.
Im being honest but war is much better than peace in darkest times
cultural pessimism is a branch of cultural marxism,happy people don't make good revolutionaries these sad endings are a psychological operation, more and more its all just propaganda
@JL-XrtaMayoNoCheese I was thinking of that..
This movie is like every Star Trek Next Generation crisis rolled into one, engine core ejection, holodeck freakouts, gravity slingshots, mysterious space probe... But with a realistic non plot armour ending😂😂
AND they're both sh1t. Coincidence?
Lmao
so? that's not gonna stop anyone from loving the series 🙄
@@dancer4lyfe424 proper sh1te
@@dancer4lyfe424 hey. Are u ok? Your videos seem really sad
As a Swede, when you see these people walking around aboard a "super advanced spaceship", but you recognice that most of the indoor shots are taken aboard one of those crappy cruiseships going between Sweden and Finland XD
Imagine being stuck on one of those things for severals years. Blimey
It is deliberately made to look like one of those ferries/cruise ships. (And yes, that is a terrifying prospect, being stuck on one of those for eternity)
It wasn't shot on a ship though, but at a number of places in Stockholm (Waterfront Congress centre, mall of Scandinavia and Sollentuna centrum, and also some scenes shot in studio)
Not really. I think they made it into "flying mall" by purpose. This is example on how people dont want to change their ways no matter that.
"Chepiba is there to help, but she checks out fast as well." 😂 3:02
"Libidel stares into the dying device when it explodes in what was probably a way to end it's own life and suffering." 🤣 6:57
This guy's narration is hilarious, never goes unappreciated. ❤
So today's lesson: Poor ship building, and no main power redundancies, are bad for spaceships.
@@BobDevV I'm actually pissed they (on earth) didn't have enough sense to send a probe with technology old enough they could use.
@Volrath This. Billionaires racing to go to another planet while we have problems to solve on Earth. I am convinced our future will turn into the movie Elysium
@Volrath every planet dies sooner or later. It is inevitable. The real lesson is that humans are not suitable to spread to other worlds. But it doesn't prevent our civilization from doing just that.
And no rescue plan or tow plan, not even a shuttle craft. Where is MacGyver
@@vashthestampede3459 well Jeff bezos is actually trying to outsource things to the moon so that we can save earth
If only they focused on building in mission-critical redundancies rather than aesthetics and amenities...
But you gotta have that bowling alley. mission critical.
On god. It was literally a THREE WEEK TRIP😭
and considering the trip was only 3 weeks you'd wonder why they added all that extra amenities shit.
Titanic was expected to take less than a week to reach it's destination, and the amount of luxury and amenities built into that ship is mind-boggling.
The original poem was published in 1956, a time when people would be well aware of the concept of luxury on longer trips (Titanic wasn't the only luxury liner, and the concept wasn't exactly abandoned in the 44 years since). And not very aware of the actual dangers and limitations of space travel, seeing as the first human in space was still 5 years away.
You can fill any vessel to the brim with safety features alone and nothing else, and there'll always be a way for it to go down regardless. Only design that is guaranteed to not suffer a critical malfunction mid-trip, is a design that never moves in the first place. Simply can't cover every single possible and impossible scenario.
Titanic had a whole plethora of new, highly advanced safety features built into it. It would've stayed afloat in almost any circumstance except the one that occurred.
It's quite blatantly pointed out in the movie, that that's exactly what happened. The sequence of events was so ridiculously unlikely, that all the safety features had failed to save them. Just like how modern designs generally considered safe, sometimes go down anyway, luxury or not.
What asthetic? Its literally a flying brick.
So they were all dying to get there.
Lol
The depressing thing is the Aniara is a direct metaphor for Earth. We are all hurtling through space with no end goal. The captain is right though, the difference between meaningless voyage and a fulfilling one is psychological.
Had the passengers been able to persist, to not succumb to nihilism and hedonism, their descendants would have lived to reach their new home.
6 million years?
some shit is bound to happen ain’t no way
@@yeayeaa7812 They also could have kept persisting to open the probe Earth sent them, or their descendants could have.
Yup
6 million years is an absurd amount of time. There was bound to be some sort of catastrophe that would have doomed them. Usually in Sci Fi Generation ships tend to last Hundreds of years, but millions is a ridiculous amount of time to keep the civilization going on a small ship like this
These sci-fi migration stories really nail down the fact that if we were to have some migratory mission to another planet that we ought to have multiple smaller arks instead of one enormous one
They need to be able to house self sustaining ecosystems unless we get significantly faster than light though. I agree multiple baskets though.
@Trevor Philips They can't, they need workers like maids, housecleaners, etc.
@Trevor Philips there is no technology today capable of destroying our planet to such a degree that it cant support human life, except for nukes witch we do not have enough of. the earth is not dying its climate is changing just like it has many times before, though many may die, humanity itself will be fine.
@Trevor Philips Total nonsense. They can't make things work on lush parts of earth, what makes you think they can work in space of all places.
@Trevor Philips humans are the only things that matter on this god forsaken rock in the middle of fucking nowhere in the middle of nothing, there is nothing like us for light decades around.
but i know how people are and i worded my statement in the most precise way to make it clear im not a climate change denier but a guy who knows a thing or two about the planet, but i guess it didn't go trough your thick skull
Not even a year started : hit by something
Almost 5 million years drifting : yeah im fine
I also think the ship would be just fine, except for the electronics and what's inside
I mean, we have planets and asteroids over 4 billion years old so
@@Genesongx And they they're without exception covered in thousands of impact craters. Hmm...
yeah, the exception with earth is we have an atmosphere and Saturn helping us to not get impacted with more garbage.
Also the car Musk sent to space will be gone by radiation exposure and such in space.
The 5 million years drifting is just a dramatic ending for the sake of being dramatic arriving to a new planet. Not much of it would have lasted that long.
LOL 6 million years not getting hit by anything?? The director is a joke.
@@fynkozari9271 actually, it's quite possible
the ship is travelling rather fast, as apparently it takes 3 weeks to get to mars in this movie
so it's travelling at around 250 kilometers per second
the solar system is actually quite empty, apart from the kuiper belt and the asteroid belt
even the asteroid belt is very empty, with the distance between asteroids being larger than the distance from the earth to the sun
once the spaceship exits the solar system, it basically has nothing to hit
you can travel in a straight line for quite a long time without hitting anything at all
after about 6 million years of travelling at 250 kilometers per second, you will have covered a distance of around 4300 light years
"Even the algae doesn't care anymore" lol, golden!
I like how the whole premise of the movie is based off the fact that humanity is amazing enough to terraform mars but cant maintain/terraform an already habitable earth.
Because we have an economic system which needs infinite growth on a finite planet while the mass of people don't receive value they produce
@@mcboat3467 I think theres truth to that, and I want you to be successful in life so be careful about anything that is turned into a story you tell yourself, it can sometimes hurt more than help.
@@incognitocappucino1972 The fact that you think reality is a "story you tell yourself" is exactly why we can't fix the mess we're in. Everyone's ignoring it and trying to be successful instead of useful. It's depressing.
@@mcboat3467 that makes no sense what so ever
Earth is beeing terraformed as we speak and many people seem to not even understand it. Green house effect gasses are a staple in terraforming theory. Guess what is happening on Earth all these recent years. Though it seems Earth is not exactly beeing terraformed for the Human species better living conditions. P.S. Also assuming one starts terraforming a planet through the Greenhouse effect, are we sure this is a process that can be stopped? Cause if it can't, maybe that's what we're seeing happening on Earth as well. I wonder if it would lead to a planet with the living conditions of Venus eventually.
Imagine being one of the last 10 people alive in a giant ship that's like a mall.............damn.
I imagine myself and 9 other beautiful women. Great way to go.
It said I had way more then just a mall, so more a town or city
imagine being the last one..... it would be scary as hell
Time to wreck stuff
Cant wait!
Geez, this certainly counts as one of the most depressing movies ever made, damn...
While depressing, it was different. We don't get new or different that much these days.
The depressing part is when you stop and realize earth is our floating coffin
If you want even more depressing, watch "The Road"...that movie gave me PTSD. Make it a double feature and watch it together with "The Mist"...
@@thethirdchimpanzee THEN watch Open Water. It's a good movie based on a true story, but depressing.
@@thethirdchimpanzee Havent seen the road but I did enjoy the mist. I think this movie is more depressing as the more the movie went on the more depressed the watcher gets. The mist had some uplifting moment then BOOM gets you at the end.
30 seconds in when they said "pass by the nearest celestial body" I had the thought of "well that isn't exactly going to be soon"
6m years later...
I bought it on bluray out of the blue and it fast became one of my all time favorite scifi indie movies ever. The way everything is shot on regular real locations but still manages to create an outer space isolation feel is outstanding. I only thought the final scenes went by too fast and i would love to see more detail. Its a depressing story but it´s absolutely fascinating and original. The UK bluray special edition is great and the audicomentary and making of are excellent.
"Even the algae don't care anymore."
That's when you know all is truly lost

I don’t understand why nobody would have sent them actual fuel, why there’s no mention of communicating with humans of Mars/Earth. It’s not like they don’t have communication devices, plus giant spaceships should have safety systems in case such situations happen.
That's just a movie
@@user-bm3hu5bm3b i'm sorry but this is such a ridiculous response to the question.
@@user-bm3hu5bm3b Worst response
Well the answer would simply be time. The time it takes for the ppl on earth to find out the ship dipped its course, the time it’ll take to relay that information from the ship to earth, the time it’ll take to send a large enough cargo to set them back into course the time. Answer Time.
Because the communication antenna was damaged? And since the ship is moving off course at max speed, kinda impossible for anyone on Earth or Mars to send cargo or recovery to them. Earth to Mars takes 9 months with our current tech, they only need 3 weeks. So the probe thingy WAS probably the newer tech that can vessel that can reach them, and even that took 6 years. And from listening to the recap, 6 years' tech advance is so high that the current crew have no idea how to work with it.
The spaceship after 1 day in space: we are gonna hit something
The spaceship after 6 million years: I'm fine
I wish they made a movie with this premise but actually happy - showing how the passangers form a society and how they find meaning within it, deciding to procreate, love and teach their children, and hope for the future even if they're not alive to reach it. Show what activities they come to value, how they arrange their lives, how they deal with raising children, how they deal with education and learning in general, etc.
No one wants to watch that. It's boring and unrealistic.
@@abebuckingham8198 There would be people who wants to watch that. Except if this was done realistically. Like a contingency plan to turn the ship into a mobile habitat like ship in a case an event like this happens.
No one wants hope. Everyone wants Nihilism.
Just shot the F like the astronomer.
Watch Passengers
The concept of movies that have traveling to a terraformed world perplexes me, because if they had the technology to get all that done, they could've just fixed Earth.
Earth probably has 10s of billions of people, ice melted, productive land flooded, vast numbers of people living in poverty, frequent riots, wild fires, lack of food and drinkable water etc. The only way to save the Earth would be to take off some of the productive people, and let the rest die, wait a century or so for the skies to clear and temp to drop, then return and start again.
@@briananthony4044 if they can transform a barren rock into a garden in a couple decades, they could easily fix their already falling apart garden EASILY.
@@briananthony4044 The worst, most insufferable part of Earth, is more habitable then the best part of Mars and nothing mankind can do quickly, would change this.
It's called plot device. But yes to be able to actually terraform any world. Even one that might have life already existing in a primordial form within a meaningful timespan but not able to fix what we've done to earth is silly.
Only way it would make sense is if the Sun was dying and expanding to a red giant. Which is still a huge ass time span far greater then humanity's civilization on earth currently.
@Koby Cossins We can make domes back on earth
I want a sequel where humans are on the planet it reached and they open the space probe. Don't care what's in it, could be something that could have saved them or even just trash they launched into space. Just want to know.
Same, I just want to know what was in it!
But it was 6 million years no human survived so how would a sequel work?
@@antoineweldon9037
He just explained, there are humans on the planet the ship arrived at.
Obviously there are other humans out there, as they sent a probe, and given that it reached the ship despite having been off course for years, they obviously have a means of tracking it, so perhaps they eventually follow it's course and reach the planet we see at the end.
Or humans have evolved in new earth and starting a new life all over again
@@antoineweldon9037 like lol lol said. Obviously no one is on the ship but there were other humans not on the ship. After 6 million years technology would be more advanced so they could have FTL, faster than light, ships that explored and found that planet after everyone on the ship died. Reminds me of an episode from the original twilight zone where this guy makes a round trip somewhere in space that takes like 90 years. When he's almost back the people there talk about how with their current technology their ships can make that trip in a few months, not the 90 years it took him.
I was wondering what happened to the other ships in WallE. The Axiom got lucky, they only got fat being out in space.
Thank you for bringing attention to this movie! It's so underrated!
The last scene where it shows the half of Craft Aniara actually looks like Oumuamua (Oumuamua is the first known interstellar object) without being covered with space dust and other cosmic stuff.

I'm surprised they didn't send a SOS signal for assistance, I'm sure the ship would have cost billions of dollars if not trillions.
And they would have paid anything for retrieval.
Anita, what?
I believe in the story that there is no rescue since Earth died or something
@@manfredschultz9619 Maybe I misinterpreted. From my understanding they were leaving from Earth to head to Mars.
Maybe I heard that wrong but I'm almost 100% positive.
"All communication systems will be down until we've reached our destination." is said before their departure. That's purely a plot decision, IRL telemetry would be continuously transmitted to either Earth or Mars or both through redundant communication systems, for the exact reason to inform those at "home" if an anomaly would happen. In the accident none of those systems were lost, so Earth would be informed about the dire situation and also about the new course. With that information they would be able to launch a smaller, faster rocket carrying fuel to intercept the drifting spaceship. How long that would take is unclear, but it's sure the opening instructions would be written on the rocket, or better transmitted to the spaceship.
The chances of meeting a rocket (or anything) in space is near zero, thus the only reasonable explanation is that the "spear" is this rocket, but it's rather unexplainable why there's not a single mark on it saying "open here". If the "spear" originates from a different source, that would be E.T. topic, which wouldn't fit the film. It's hard to find sense in this part of the plot, but the false hope given by the "spear" was an important phase in the story, albeit one that's not developed to its full potential.
Earth wouldn't give up on a spaceship this size and thousands of its inhabitants that easily.

To be truthful. I always find the idea, that terraforming Mars is easier, than reterraforming Earth 🌎 kinda ridiculous. Especially since you have to add a lot to Mars. That you need to export (or is it import?) there. Like phosphorous.
Its just more demoralization propaganda from the 1%
For sure. At a certain point though it may be "easier" in the sense of just starting fresh, at least. We will never terraform a planet though. Humans have been known to build say, cathedrals for a few generations, over course of a 100 years. But keep a project like a planet terraforming going for a thousand years? Or 500? Or whatever. Nah. Just not enough immediate beneficial effects for a group to keep that sort of massive, life defining investment going, pouring so many resources into it, for future generations. Think we're too selfish for that as a species, deep down. That's not even getting into the practicalities of the science.
@@jonny-b4954 People terraform the deserts tho...
@@jonny-b4954 before terraforming MArs the need to find a way to restart the planets magnetosphere, without that it cant sustain an atmosphere to begin with.

@@grothaal Tbf when things are bad enough on the planet that it is doing an exodus to another newly terraformed world, politicans dont really fit into the concen anymore so it's a wierd thing to bring up lol.

The summary of a movie, put into a 10 minute (approx) capsule?
AWESOME !
I don’t have time to watch many movies and find them boring to sit through (I literally fall asleep sometimes). This allows me to hear/see the highlights in a condensed version.
Brilliant! Thank You, very much.
I don't care how much redundancy they built into life support, a ship designed for a trip of three weeks isn't supporting them even close to ten years. But hand wave that and the absence of communications with Mars and Earth aside, the psychology is fascinating. People need a goal, a sense of purpose, or even just to feel they are going somewhere. Put them within a finite sphere of a couple of hundred people that is gradually shrinking as people die off would lead to all sorts of non-ideal. Reminds me of the Biosphere 2 project in Arizona.
I mean they only need to make small adjustments to the plot to make everything not so laughably out of wack. A three week bus service to mars going so ridiculously wrong makes no sense
@@Snagprophet Yeah I agree. Why not make the ship an Earth/Mars cycler or something, that would make more sense having longer term life support and less robust/redundancy in propulsion. Maybe put something in there about Mars/Earth writing them off as a loss to explain away the lack of communication? I guess it's easier for me to to sit here and complain than to make a movie though lol
@@Snagprophet to say it makes no sense, makes no sense, because its a creative fictional story... that has a plot driver
Well my first guess as to why they did what they did with the script? It would look too much like "Passengers" otherwise.
Although depressing, the movie has a very interesting and original premise and presentation. The base material is a (book-length) poem, this can be felt in the film's focus on the emotions rather than the story. The low budget setting of a "hotel flying in space" (very few custom sets) directs the focus from the sci-fi element to the humans' ways of dealing with their unexpected fate.
The story itself is built on a necessary, but unrealistic plot hole: the lack of communication with Earth and Mars. "All communication systems will be down until we've reached our destination." is said before the departure, without explanation. That's purely a plot decision, IRL telemetry would be continuously transmitted to Earth and Mars through redundant communication systems, for the exact reason to inform those at "home" if an anomaly would happen. In the accident none of those systems were lost, so Earth/Mars would be informed about the dire situation and also about the new course. With that information they would be able to launch a smaller, faster rocket to intercept the drifting spaceship and resupply the fuel. How long that would take is unclear, but it's sure the opening instructions would be written on the rocket, or transmitted to the spaceship in advance.
The chances of meeting a rocket (or anything) in space is near zero, thus the only reasonable explanation is that the "spear" is this rocket, but it's rather unexplainable why there's not a single mark on it saying "open here". If the "spear" originates from a different source, that would be E.T. topic, which wouldn't fit the film. It's hard to find sense in this part of the plot, but the false hope given by the "spear" was an important phase in the story, albeit one that's not developed to its full potential.
Earth wouldn't give up on a spaceship this size and thousands of its inhabitants that easily. Neither would a collision avoidance maneuver turn a spaceship almost 90 degrees off course. The ship would be unable to slow down at Mars, but it would pass quite close to it. Depending on the technological advancement and the availability of rockets, a rescue/resupply mission could be achieved in the 23 days until they approach Mars. But that's not the story this film tells.
Embarassing how easy Actors are ready

It was very depressing in the movie when they show the probe, abandoned with hundreds of attempts to enter it scorched. Something is so deeply depressing about humanity giving up on a project they were so looking forward to, after several failed attempts to study it

6 million years. In-n-out lol
The funny thing is they could have been happy in space, they chose not to be. That’s pretty profound
Notes; this movie is actually based off a swedish poem from 1965 of the same name. It is the only sci-fi literature to ever win a nobel prize. It's themes reflect despair, isolation and the meaning of our human lives in the context of the endless expanses of space and void. @6:20 when the Mima machine starts speaking it is actually reciting parts of the original poem.
"Even the algae don't care anymore"
OoF
So this is what Elon musk is doing in space. 🤔
Hes tryna ride his tesla !
No Elon is making irl catgirls in space as we speak
@Trevor Philips exactly hes legit named his poor kid a SPACESHIP
@Trevor Philips nah, he making catgirl in space

"Fatalistic and defeatist acceptance of the human condition and all its marginal nonsense..." _Yep, must be a Scandinavian movie. Since there's no depressed girl chain smoking cigarettes in black-and-white, it's not French._
You good man, thanks for existing!
Probably the most ironic thing is that the first celestial body they come close enough to is a naturally lush and verdant planet.
This movie has been on my mind for weeks after I saw it.
This movie while a depressing and interesting movie, does throw realism out the window in favor for a plot. Let’s go through some of the more stupid things
Not having communication until they reach Mars - it was said early in the movie that the communication would be down until they completed their journey and if I’m correct their communication goes down later in the film anyway. Now I’m no scientist or space engineer, but I’m pretty sure that in any situation with travel, that you would have communication between the ship, the planets, and other spaceships in the area. Right now with out technology, it take around 20 minutes (give or take) for a message to be sent between Earth and Mars, meaning that at any point the ship should have decent communication with the planets even if it takes longer to send and receive messages, and this wouldn’t factor in any other ships flying by. So instead of trying to explain the lack of communication, the movie just says that they can’t communicate from the start, which is dumb.
They can’t get rescued by anyone - now this plays into the “no communication” bit, but is there seriously no one keeping track of ships around here. This whole journey is reminiscent of a cruise ship voyage, so I’m pretty sure that in any normal situation you’d have multiple people keeping track of things like this. Also the fact that no passing ships every stop to try and help, since they just don’t appear to exist, which either means that earth is completely void of life and this is the last ship leaving, or it means that all the people responsible for this voyage are heartless monsters who care more about money than human life. Think of the Pr nightmare you’d have because of something like this
This is just two things I saw while watching, their probably many more
It throws plot out in favor of nihilism.
that went from 0 to 100 real quick. so dark. said humanity do not know how to have hope in themselves naturally and have no real foundation (which is true) the only true foundation is the ones who were in the "cult" but even then, it wasnt true foundation because it was only for own selfish desires they wanted to keep alive. soooo to be truly grounded and have a foundation is to be content in yourself without the desire of any earthly things and u wont ever be effected by any change in ur life.
so your saying Humans are insecure about everything, not just body image war and stuff like that
6 million years passed, there's no way anyone would survive that long lol. They had no hope because there was no hope.
@@peoplez129 well Tbf at first they did if they at least tried to fix the engines instead of immediately giving up and panicking.
Human characters and emotions is one of the biggest problems in space "adventures". Even on a flight to mars the selected people need to have a certain kind of "character traits" which wont cause problems in the prolonged isolation. If im not wrong they even do tests on earth right now where they lock a group of people away to study their behaviour over the course of a few weeks/months and it doesnt take long for problems to occure. And that is only for a few months...imagine the movie scenario where people have to adapt to those circumstances of infinite life in space...regulated birth to make sure there is enough food and water...education for new generations ...who is in charge and who isnt...knowing humankind u got a situation like lord of the flies in no time...even with the most rational and intelligent persons that wont go well for long
that was dark from the very beginning
The sad part is that after 6 million years the ship still rides through space and they found a celestial body but no one sees it since they are all dead
Honestly I expected after a few decades the crew and passengers would have made new generations of humans and create a small civilization
I don't think so. Humans are animals that evolved to certain conditions. We'd all lose our minds before we could adapt to such an environment. Even most children born on the ship would grow up with psychological and behavioral issues. If they survived into adulthood and took over, in time the culture would fall due to poor rule.
Isn't it beautiful in a way? The object follows it's path. Despite all the suffering and happiness, all life and death, all anger and sadness, it kept going. Value your life, no matter what the universe will keep going. It can be reassuring to know that, in the end, we are always part of something greater.
@@weirdart1638 it was a colony ship so they should have enough people to sustain a population
Although a lot of them died so there may not have been enough left
@@_EllieLOL_ Yeh but there still alot of males and females aboard and yet the only child there is the one with two moms even if the population is decreased that doesn't stop them from procreation
Dang imagine boarding the ship and seeing that all life onboard died almost 6 million years ago! Messes with the mind!
This is why you always have backups for your backups. Because when something goes wrong, and the backups don't work, you have backups for those backups.
To anybody still thinking about the spear drone
One of the movies points is to point out how ridiculous humans can be. The old lady is basically the movie writers telling us what they think. The spear is not a human probe, and it would have never saved the people in the ship, it was just an extreme coincidence they bumped into it. We try to give it a reason, but in reality the spear has no deep “reasoning”, it just *is*. the Astronomer was always right. Nothing makes sense, everything is just meaningless coincidence. We humans are lost in a world that HAS to make sense to us, but in reality it doesnt.
BUT, in the movie, it’s heavily implied that the spear was of alien origin and was heading to either: the habitable planet the ship ends up at the end, or, another habitable planet the spear missed by a hair (it’s mentioned in the movie)
This movie has several one-in-a-trillion coincedences happen. First, the Ship getting hit by the screw. A freaking screw that is so small, encountering something like it is ridiculously unlikely. The Spear is an event so unlikely it shouldnt happen, and it doesn’t even occur to the crew or the viewers that they are not part of a plan involving that object. It doesnt matter what it is or where it comes from, its just there to play a cruel and silly joke with Aniara, but that joke was planned by no one and no one is laughing about it.
And then at the very end of the movie, just to re force the point, the ship was in course to an earthlike planet the whole time.
All that really shows how insignificant and random real life can be, especially somewhere like space, we as a race and as an individual really are not relevant. Basically, the old woman was right!
Well, you wrote quite a piece here! ❣️ loved reading every single word and totally agree on everything.
They could give much better ending - The alien thing was something like unlimited power source that they install into their ship to sustain themselfs and after bilions of years they reach said planet evolving in a very different way and they find out it was colonized by humanity that invented warp drives and could reach that planet much sooner then they could.
Yeah people often don't realize how big and empty space is. Someone asked NASA how they navigate the asteroid belt on the way to the outer planets and they said "we just pretend it doesn't exist because the probability of hitting something is essentially zero". Like a billion dollar spacecraft doesn't even bother to check if something is in the way.
Keep taking the nihilism Kool aid.
I like how 10 years later non of them aged a day😂😂
Only the captain grew 2 inches of beard 😂
And like the depression people were having on the ship they would of looked older than were
This is one of the most depressing movies I've ever seen but at the same time it was really good
It's definitely one of my favorites
Ahhhh Solitude.
Quite endearing.
And very peaceful.
the spaceship design itself is like they're asking for doom
This movie has the most depressing ending to date and i thought Melancholia was depressing ..... My God
Europa Report has a similar theme. & may I suggest Buried starring Ryan Reynolds.
Watch the movie the Mist.
@@Chris-pi5vv oh shit i forgot about that one
@@Mykal_Editz the road has some depressing moments too
Honestly I expected after a few decades the crew and passengers would have made new generations of humans and create a small civilization in the ship
Love this channel
So... This is a puzzling question. The ship is massive. Its also going really fast. Its clearly not going lightspeed or else the ships matter would warp. I also imagine you can't warp speed around a planet. Convenient Warp tech or not, unless this is star wars, they need a way to slow down. If they don't, they would just smash into mars. The back thrusters would be for acceleration obviously, but they would need front thrusters for deceleration. [They could turn around and decelerate with the back thrusters I suppose.] I would imagine that since the thrusters are so far apart, that each side would have its own fuel storage. [Maybe even backup fuel]. Using the front thrusters they could reorient themselves towards mars or at least to the nearest orbiting body. Seeing as they lost all control of the ship, I'm assuming they only had back thrusters, like fools.
Here's another idea. The ship is pretty big right? That ship probably requires a lot of maintenance. Its bound to have drones and small ships that fly outside the ship. If they don't, they could just salvage parts from their massive ship to make more. The idea is that they could attach small ships to the side and use them like tug boats to slowly re-aim the ship on course. [Tugboats are small fisher boats that can pull along cruise ships.] There's no friction or gravity, so pulling the ship shouldn't be too hard. Improvised or backup fuel could be used. Even if they couldn't aim in time, they would just have to play the long game. It would at least be better than floating aimlessly in space.
If all else fails, then the game will have to be played over centuries or millenia. Don't they have human embryos in stasis? What about inserting human conscience into ai? They clearly have super intelligent, even conscious ai. They could upload people's minds, even if its just a copy. in a philosophical sense, the human spirit lives on.
I always find the plot of these film ironic: we can terraform other planets but can't turn Earth back to Earth.
Earth can be terraformed but they dont want to when they can.
Earth ran out of oil.
@@jameshailerthepostmaster4389 there’s not gonna be oil on Mars lol or probably anywhere else in the solar system.
@@NotSoSerious69420 Lots of methane though. That's a fuel.
One planet that is a blank slate VS a planet billions of people who'll argue with you.

"Watch out and take care" feels like just general advice as opposed to something specific to the videos when he says it
This is actually one of the most depressing movies I’ve ever watched and it’s great to see it “make the rounds” on the internet so to speak. A lot of lessons for humanity to follow here
@Rip DOOM when the reply makes more sense than the comment
God,
this disgusted me so much.
Alone how slutty the Actors are; let alone the Characters.
F-ing heck, what an embarassment.
I baely ever saw such a bad Movie-like Thingy. I found it on Amazon
and was like: Whoa, trash-quality much?
@Rip DOOM When something makes us feel negative emotions we tend to dismiss it or belittle it. But that beats the whole purpose of art, which is to explore our hearts, both the positive and the negative. At the end, no story is really like real life, but art reflects reality in a way reality cannot reflect itself.
@Rip DOOM No, but it has to do with your attitude towards the movie. Of course people are put under situations we may never encounter in real life, but that is no reason to dismiss the motifs of the movie. Stories are the oldest form of entertainment for a reason. Even when not truthful they express underlying truths that can apply to our personal struggles and even inspire us.
@@JavierGomezX This doesn't explain any underlying truths.
Humanity has done 10,000 horrible and different things, but not contacting an expensive and valuable ship full of expensive and valuable people, who are not far away...isn't one of them.
I love that they are wearing semi permiable ppe and full face respirators, only to see that not one of them are equipped with air filters. Were they not in the budget?

This movie is a absolute masterpiece and needs to be watch in its entireity
I like how she also played the "Hormone Let Go Game" with the guys to get through tough times
The astronomer was right all along
No..... She was completely wrong.... We will all die.... Tell a child dying of cancer with a month to live...... Nahh mate its over..... No point..... Drink every last drop of life its all we get.... The best music the best films..... See everything before you check out....
It's amazing that it actually reached a habitable planet after all those years. I like that ending,.
Talk about sadness...makes you think about life in general. Thx for the review.
This dude helped me go to sleep the past 2 nights, this channel definitely gonna blow up
6:07 hehe boa
These are always long and I love it ! Other channels are short!
Damn that ending just smashes any little hope u have left lol
Huh..a bit of a harsh transition from happy people excited about going into space to start a new way of life, only to have it slowly decompose and the hard thought of reality of the situation hitting them one by one, can’t imagine what the last person was feeling like when everyone died before them
Edit: Honestly, I’d be terrified to die in space
We are all in space....
You are going to die in space.
So 6 million years have passed and the earth is modern, and they see the ship and think it’s aliens 👽
Every few months I have to come back and watch this recap.
I saw this movie a few years ago. Fascinating storyline except for one important thing. No one bothered to EVER contact Earth?
Intriguing plot/story, but the major weakness I see is that such a huge colony ship...equipped with every aspect of life support/environmental controls + artificial gravity, as well all the vast systemry to preserve the integrity of this gigantic vessel...
DOES NOT have the human engineering teams & aerospace scientists, technicians & physicists on board--let alone potential A.I. constructs, like that Mima' mental well-being chamber...
That would come up with a contingency scheme for either repairing propulsion OR devising some alternate method of redirection. Solar sails...nuclear fission or fusion sources[..such a colony ship MUST contain one of these methodologies for it's prodigious power requirements?!..]...incremental ion thrusters to change course towards a planetary body?
I cannot imagine such a colony ship being devised, constructed and launcged without full engineering & repair resources, or a categorical list of contingencies.
Embarassing how easy Actors are ready
for Showersexscenes.
What patheticness cultivated.
A "realistic" movie fulfilling Aniara's narrative would easily be a 12+ hour miniseries. It's just too long and too expensive to be a normal feature-length movie. You could "produce" a "realistic" scenario for a ferry ship drifting off course, but why expend that effort when people will find "new" holes in the science anyway? Just make a simple plot device and put more effort into the story.
It's not even a colony ship; it's just a transport ship, built to shuttle back and forth from Earth to Mars. I cannot imagine how they're powering their life-support systems for 24 years after having dumped all their fuel the first day.
Methane from poo ez fuel. Also, so like, in the future, does nobody know how to use radios to see if they can hear something from Mars/earth? Overall good film tho, especially liked a touch where the astronomer was drinking some wanky looking drink, gave me mad "fermented algae wine" vibes, nice detail there.
@@jesschristiansen2523 space doesnt have drag so they went full speed indefinitely into the void..
The captain was definitely the best character in that movie, he stood sane and positive for the others until the very end
But he shot da astrolady
@@simianto9957 She was a debbie downer
Stayed sane? He set the woman up to take the blame for the dream machine committing suicide after she warned him about over taxing it. Had her beaten and thrown in jail. Then stating that the astronomer would get a medal, she drunkenly says who cares, we're all floating in a coffin and he then SHOOTS HER IN THE BACK. THE NAVAGATOR.
Yea no, perfectly sane.
@@koodude2313 nobody want to take the blame duhhh
Not really after 24 years he had cut his wrist.
That was…seriously depressing. Just so sad until the very end. 😭
My most favorite one yet!
I started to watch this but 54 seconds in I quickly realized that if we needed to leave the planet that we destroyed then shouldn’t we change some of our habits?? If you build a space ship with malls and dance clubs and everything then we’re fked already.......
i think i was designed to make people feel like theyr still on earth, i like shopping and clubbing so once it would be taken away from me along with my family and my home id be fucked too
@@weebshit6728 so shopping and clubbing would be the only things needed to make you feel fucked in a situation where you're one of the last humans lefr ? Yeah makes sense why the mission failed even more now XD
the thing was build with short travel time in mind, we're talking weeks. If they would be expected to travel for a year or more, I think people would create an actual forest instead of the mall inside the ship.
@@user-mb4xy2cz3t fate of.humanity in the balance and there was no contingency plans 😭😭😭 it's a great idea idk why that wasn't a backup plan or anything to help in the case of an emergency
My point is that if you need a shopping mall and dance club built into the most important ship then you’re probably the same type of person who contributed to fkin over the planet
Best Bit Of The Movies Is 14:58 No. Of Year's Passed.
Imagine if we detected a spaceship like the Aniara drifting towards earth. An unmanned vessel of nothing but the fossils of aliens who got lost in deep space.
WTF is wrong with the Astronomer?!
At every single turn she's just:
"Remember, never ever have hope. We're all f*cked. Life is meaningless. Please, panic harder."
She was the most real person on the ship. I’m surprised she didn’t kill herself after day 1.
@@scharf74 Eh. I don't know about more realistic. Denial is a hell of a drug. That's why covid has gone so out of control in the US. Too many people in denial.
We should start caring for our Earth, instead of searching any other home planet in future. This is the best we can ever have.
It is not the Earth that needs to be cared for. It is its' human inhabitants that need work
That's easy, just quit buying stuff
We need to expand outward. We should take care of the earth, however, in the event of an uncontrollable calamity (like an asteroid) if we don't expand beyond our home our legacy would end there.
I agree that we shouldn't waste away our only planet but we must also expand since it is in our nature to expand and reach the unknown just like what Columbus did when he set foot on a new world
@Trevor Philips no,all who wants to move gets to move if you have the money,which we will have assuming planet travel price would lower in the next few decades
