It's a bit of a shame that you stopped the video before the beautiful outro (but I'm glad you had as much fun watching as we did!): "Flyyyyyy me to the moon And let me kick its fucking ass Let me show it what I learned in my jujitsu class"
There’s also something I thought of when I saw the video of this film: The entire world’s ecosystem is absolutely cooked, it’s probably the worst mass extinction event in history and yet it’s treated as a happy ending (iirc). Who knows how many animals got bamboozled by the giant ball of cheese.
His retrospectives on transformers and pacific rim are some of my favorites. the recent one on cloverfield was very informative as someone who has never seen the movie, looking forward to your reaction.
I'm really not trying to be the grammar dude, but the first thing that popped in my mind after reading this was the image of you praying to Bin Ans-arad the google prophet...
To me as an artist and science enjoyer, I think my middle ground would be to play the premise seriously, like: The Apolo Missions discover the Moon is hollow, but is dead, a marvel of engineering that was left by someone is recognized for the life changing event, and so NASA starts a secret project to gather and study this unknown technology, and then 50 years later, the tech on Earth is advanced enough thanks to the Moon Archeology to be sci-fi enough that the "nuke the Moon" plot point can become believable, humanity is been aware long enough about the gravitational shift changing, they long past have told the population about the problem and they are actively trying several ways to stop it. Now we can have the same story but a little bit tweaked, like Wilson and Berry could be something like Moon Archeologists/Engineers in a project on space that actively cause a problem that kicks Wilson out of a job, Sam can be the 1000IQ social outcast who has been modifying his body with Moon tech or something in secret, and the son can be a Moon-studies college boy who is rebelling after his father became global laughing stock who gets humbled by the world and because of it, realizes something that helps in a crucial point in the climax, and you can keep the twist of "ancient humans made Moon" by introducing a virus in the code NASA used without fully understanding so the AI can awake and be the thing that corrects the Moonfall (eyo!) and together with Sam, pulling a 2001 and lead humanity to a new dawn in the rediscovery of their space-faring past, now you have a more believable happy ending with some destruction on the world.
Emmerich seems to massively underestimate the size of the moon while also accentuate how large it is. Like, even if the moon COULD be nuked into pieces, the moon is gravitationally locked to the earth, so all the STILL MASSIVE fragments of the moon would hurtle towards Earth. And considering the event that supposedly created the moon reactivated the entire geological stability of the planet, even one tenth of the moon hitting us would be extinction level as a MINIMUM. There's also a decent chance that if the while moon impacted us, it would destabilize the molten core of the Earth, breaking everything from standard gravity to the magnetic field to the atmosphere to the stable surface of the crust, meaning EVERYTHING DIES. There will be no bunkers, no oceans left to re-evolved life, nothing but ash and molten hell probably forevermore.
Orbits will stay in orbit unless a force pushes in a different direction. Take for instance in Star Trek, when the engines of the Enterprise fail, one of the people in the show exclaims “We’re going to fall rapidly to the planet’s surface” That is in fact false, the Enterprise should be in orbit and wouldn’t need the engines to propel it forward since the force of gravity of the planet keeps it in a circular motion. The engines turning off just means they can’t leave that orbit.
I often describe his movies as the pinnacle of so bad they're amazing. I remember seeing 2012 in theaters years back and I had the biggest fucking smile on my face while watching it. It was dumb, I knew it was dumb, but it was so freaking entertaining to watch. Same goes for Independance Day and even this movie. They're so insane that they loop right back around to being fun.
Wait, if space has no medium, how does a black hole collapse propagate through the voids of space? Theoretical dark matter? Or like a TINY amount of Hawking radiation? Does a collapsing black hole create anything besides Hawking radiation like a super nova?
What's even worse is that we have the DART mission! We have actually hit an asteroid with a space craft to see how much it would react. It was luckily more than enough to stop an asteroid from hitting the earth if we catch it far away enough. The moon is giant and the closest celestial body. The reason why DART is so important is because we can only realistically nudge something to go slightly off path millions of miles away. If the moon was actually somehow pushed towards us, we couldn't do anything about it! Its big, close, and all particles coming off will stay in orbit until falling in or another magic force starts moving them.
I mean this movie was not that good but as the same with battleship, the aliens and the battles looked fucking awesome and the dyson sphere? Fuck yeah it looks amazing
Another channel to check out, and to expect future reaction videos of. So funny, and your reaction adds infinitely more to the context, even if it's something they'll point out as soon as we play after pausing.
One recommendation would be Madvocate analysis on the flash series, very good related to convenient plot or lack of respect for the laws of physics The style and voice is also pretty similar for some reason
Honestly, with how crazy this movie was. It was still cool to watch using ideas from what we suppose advanced technology to be capable of. I hope they release the other sequels to this. Not all movies have to be blockbuster hits, some can just be fun disaster movies
That's... Not how gravitational forces work... If the moon was that close and directly overhead, at some point, you're effectively using a gravity assist DIRECTLY INTO THE MOON. Rockets go up, and if the moon it up AND closer than normal, you might as well be firing a space cannonball.
I love those stupid disaster movies :D. I never knew this existed, believe me when I tell you that I'm gonna buy the dvd/blu-ray version :). Thanks for sharing. Also we need a new Iron Skies movie those were fun^^
I don't think this movie was meant to be scientifically accurate, or accurate to how reality in general operates. The "story" is mostly just a vehicle for displaying bombastic visuals. Is a feast for the eyes, and not much else.
Couldn't they just nuke the moon? It wouldn't blow up, but doesn't a nuclear detonation in space cause a gigantic EMP in and of itself anyways? If they have the tools to throw a nuke at the Moon, they already have the tools to EMP it
Is it bad I unironically loved this movie and im so disappointed sequel setup will go nowhere cause of how hard it bombed. If I had the money I’d fund the moonfall verse cause to me it was so sick.
Looking at hollywood the last couple of years, it is not always the germans. And I am convinced that the movie only bombed because people have forgotten how to enjoy a silly but beautifully bombastic disaster movie.
I wish Cody would do 10,000 BC
Honestly he might just to finish the saga
Watching Pointless hub is so entertaining, really hope your also gonna watch his transformers videos, they are so funny
Totally, tbh it’s one of the more fair retrospectives of the series while also recognizing the films were not that good
Oh yes, I love his deep dives into the series. Hell, aren’t they the reason he started UA-cam in the first place?

Any ending you can walk away from is a happy ending when the alternative is anihilation.
@ true, but even so living in the aftermath is gonna be anything but joyous
This is going to be Absolute Cinema.
His retrospectives on transformers and pacific rim are some of my favorites.

As a physics student who is literally learning about orbital physics motion, this movie really is trying to make me fail that exam.
Have any info for a non physics inclined person? I’m curious

I have a blast to rewatching this with you commentary, thanks mate:) Learned a few things along the way as a bonus too.
20:00 it's weird but this is not the first time i hear about the moon is fake and actually it's a space ship to observe human.......
Too much halo Is Bad for you
Listen, Sam retained his morphogenic field when he got uploaded. Once he comes with grips with his non-physicality, he'll be able to edit himself.

08:21
There are so many shapes that make no sense to. The longer I stare at the picture, the more things I discover in confusion.
As a chemistry major, I also disconnected my brain at "gravity waves".
ah yes ancient humans are space travel capable civilization that ruled the galaxy and can create dyson sphere,
but somehow have no knowledge of EMP.
Honestly, with how crazy this movie was. It was still cool to watch using ideas from what we suppose advanced technology to be capable of. I hope they release the other sequels to this. Not all movies have to be blockbuster hits, some can just be fun disaster movies
at 22:00 this bit is from animatrix, the second renaissance. its on UA-cam and the Human machine war part is a nightmare to watch.
Imagine faking Moon landing just to find out that the Moon itself is fake
Are you being serious?
Moonfall my favorite halo movie
Atlas is my favorite Titanfall movie
Hearing "What would Elon do" has officially ruined the rest of this great friday for me, thanks Sam
All this budget just to create a knockoff Majora's Mask.
Was this a reupload?
It's in the description
Ah. Thank you
Been waiting for this
I watched it thinking it would be bad. Instead I got a fun experience.
You finally watched his review of my favorite Halo movie: Moonfall!!!
There's days where I simply refuse to believe this movie is even real. XD
This whole video I was also thinking of what could be another disaster movie and andromeda was literally what I thought of first😂😂😂
That's... Not how gravitational forces work...
If the moon was that close and directly overhead, at some point, you're effectively using a gravity assist DIRECTLY INTO THE MOON. Rockets go up, and if the moon it up AND closer than normal, you might as well be firing a space cannonball.

did you already upload this video yesterday? I saw an YT notification about moonfall.
You gotta give the Transformers series of him a go. Its worth a go
I am once again asking you to react to exurb1a
Bro's alledged to have done some really shitty things
@@miguelpadeiro762 I know he's been called out for stuff, it could just be the internet being the internet, also the content is good
Will you check his video on independence day?
Tobbe made a really good warcraft 3 video I can only recommend it
I'm more of a fan of the moon falling to Earth because of mining, as seen in The Time Machine.
Oh god I actually thought it was "miss the rains down in Africa". I don't feel great
Peak fiction ngl.
I don't think this movie was meant to be scientifically accurate, or accurate to how reality in general operates. The "story" is mostly just a vehicle for displaying bombastic visuals. Is a feast for the eyes, and not much else.
i hope you react to his transformers movie reviews
Please continue with his vids! Especially the transformers ones
Hahaha. 19:07
Bro, not every conspiracy theory is the flat earth theory. 😂
This movie is so bad that it's funny 😂
Roland Emerich gives me brain damage. In a good way though.
Is there any good brain damage? 😂

Sup
Why is it always the Germans?

And I am convinced that the movie only bombed because people have forgotten how to enjoy

@@IrradiatedFeline 90% of the time if its bad its German, after all we call it the american of Europe because they equally suck
