    Special Report: Journey To Mars
    Starring Keith Carradine, Judge Reinhold, Alfre Woodard, Richard Schiff, Rosalind Chao.
    "August 29, 2005.
    With only hours to touchdown, tension build as Captain Eugene Slader (Keith Carradine) prepares to land the massive spaceship Destiny and establish man's first off-world colony on the hostile and airless Red Planet.
    But back on Earth, mass demonstrations against the pioneering flight threaten chaos. As planet-fall looms ever closer, Captain Slader falls prey to a mysterious illness and the great ship's systems begin to break down.
    Can Destiny's mission have been sabotaged? And will her crew be the first victims in the battle for who controls the stars?"
    Director of Photography - Bill Klages
    Teleplay by Augustus Taylor

Collins volunteered, "When you first step on the moon, scream " Oh my God what is that???" then cut the mic.

    Remember watching when it originally aired, remember the ending, and I've always wondered what Sadavoy saw. Since I knew what the ending was, re-watching it for the first time to see if there was anything in the film that could have indicated what Sadavoy saw but nothing popped out. At 1:22:37, in the middle of the screen to the left center, you can make out what appears to look like a hand is on top of the rock formation and the arm is extending over the edge of the rock formation. If that's what Sadavoy saw to indicate humans have been to Mars somehow before, what explains the communications blackout of both Destiny and Sadavoy as soon as Sadavoy sees it?

    • @Digital_Cheese
      @Digital_Cheese  Рік тому +1

      There were a few advertisers who attempted to use and/or popularize the "twenty-oh" from 2002 to 2009, but it certainly was not the common vernacular compared to saying "two-thousand-five" at that time.
      The societal shift towards the "twenty" usage began around 2010. However, there are those who still continue to refer to the year using the "two-thousand" method even though it is more cumbersome to say as compared to "twenty".
      Language is fascinating.

    In the original, the final scene is a distorted image of what the astronaut saw just before the signal cut off, and it was the silhouette of..."something". I remember screaming out, "Oh my gosh, it's a Martian!"
    However, every subsequent time I've seen this movie, plus every time I've found it uploaded to UA-cam, it's always been this ending here where you don't see anything.

      Maybe just a few genius aliens invented the technology, and a bunch of smart aliens saw the potential for their species, and over time, even the dumbest of their alien species eventually had access to space travel.
      Most of the human species has smartphones, and that is including those that have no real idea how they work or how difficult it was to create. Instead, many take them for granted, use them to be nasty trolls on social media applications, or other disreputable behavior. Just because advanced technology exists doesn't mean everyone will be mentally or emotionally advanced in its applications.

    At 1:22:37 and1:22:38, Left center of the screen is an alien arm, fingers splayed out. In the next frame, you can see Sadavoy looking right at it. The rest of the area looks like a ruin of a past building of some sort. The stones are eroded, but you can see evidence of what used to be flat faces of stone.

    • @Digital_Cheese
      @Digital_Cheese  3 роки тому +1

      If you look at the landscape in the background, you can see that it is not regular Martian rocks. They are covered with a jumble of interconnected metallic-looking fragments. Sadavoy-POV shows her looking at it, then to the left side, then doing a double-take before her camera is shut down. Most likely why she is making the exclamation is because she now sees this alien-looking architecture.
      It is actually quite easy to see and not an optical illusion. The producers never imagined anyone nearly 30 years later would even be taking the time to notice! 😅
