He was about tog et on the bus/train (I forget) to exit the body (probably through urine?) as essentially a metaphor for this stuff like, dissolving or something after X amount of time. They'd only be able to have long term effects if they stayed permanently like Drix chose to. So unless we make sapient over the counter meds in the future that don't dissolve or lose whatever "it" is that lets them fight symptoms, it can't happen.

    I'm not a doctor, but I remember watching Dr. Hope reacting to this movie and he gave a good description on Thrax's motives. According to him, Thrax's objective wasn't just to give Frank a fever, but to cause his body to completely lose its regulation. That would cause severe hyperthermia (or hypothermia), leading to all bodily functions failing. Plus, Thrax wasn't planning to stick around after that.

    • @fist-of-doom487
      @fist-of-doom487 Рік тому +74

      Fun fact Thrax is called the Red Death which is a reference to a fictional disease by the same name in Edgar Allen Poe’s story. In there people with the disease heat up so much they start sweating blood, absolute melt down. A disease like that could be extremely deadly and highly contagious. Hospitals, homes maybe even the streets just covered in blood and sweat as it jumps from creature to creature. It’d increase the age rating if they did that in here but the basic concept remains. A man who’s burning from the inside and a disease which is both extremely destructive and highly contagious. Cells exploding, inflammation and internal scaring, the body loses the ability to regulate temperature and just melts down, then something as simple as a cough can spread it to others.

    Even as a kid, I figured this movie wasn't trying to be 100% medically accurate but DANG if it wasn't fun to watch and/or discuss in school. It made biology more interesting. I'll always have a place in my heart for this film. I wouldn't call it a masterpiece, but it was memorable & innovative in some ways for its time, especially the fight between Osmosis and Thrax (I re-watched it so many times as a kid ). It was short, but well animated and made me view white blood cells as microscopic bad-asses.
    I'd LOVE a AAA action-RPG with a similar premise to Osmosis Jones and Cells at Work someday: Essentially, create/customize your own white blood cell, explore a vast open world map of the human body you help protect, cooperate with fellow cells (among other microbes) and fight varied threats to said body. As you progress + level up, you'd unlock new abilities for your character while upgrading existing traits (all based on real white blood cell functions). The concept alone has great potential!

    Yeah, with your insights it's pretty easy to see how they should've done the movie better. The patrol in the first part should've been in the bloodstream (maybe a high speed pursuit of a pathogen?), Thrax's nature should have been more clear (as a virus, there is a lot of potential for animated body horror. Between initial infection brainwashing cells to "see things his way", to them exploding as he grows his own crew), Thrax's plan should've been more in line with with symptoms that are caused by him, and not merely the body's response to him, and most importantly chest compressions.

    I love how smart our bodies are. When you get sick, you often get a fever(the flu is the best example). Our bodies know that they can turn up the temp to kill whatever is causing the sickness. It knows that it will kill the virus before it kills itself. I don't take drugs when I get sick because all they do is mask symptoms. My body needs those symptoms to decide what to do. If it needs a low-grade fever to kill a virus, then I don't want to be taking a fever reducer like acetaminophen(found in tylenol and most cold medicine). If my body decides that we need a little fever, I'm gonna let it do that. Obviously I keep a close eye on it, but I don't interfere unless it gets out of hand.

      I don't really think so. Anthrax is REALLY disturbing, wouldn't go good for a kids movie

    Thrax is unironically one of the best movie villains we've ever had. I'm a little upset that we only got a villain like that in one children's animation.

      His introduction is one of the most horrifying things I've seen. Laurence Fishburne's delivery of "Careful, I'm contagious" and how gruesome that cell's death is with the liquid squirting straight out of his eyeball.

    Doctor Mike is my favorite way to learn. He spreads positive energy and information out to the world that has changed/saved multiple people's lives! Great job!

    I think that's the point of the movie. On the outside Frank's body seems to be doing what is supposed to do and on the inside the infection thinks it has Frank but little does it know it's the body's natural response to get rid of it.

    I once accidentally drugged my college professor with Advil PM. He fell on his way to class and he hurt his foot. He asked me to go down to the student store and get him some Advil for the pain. I got a couple but didn't look at the packet. One of them was an Advil PM. He then had to go make himself throw up to get it out of his system. He went home early and discovered that he actually broke his foot when he fell. This was over 4 years ago but I still feel bad today

    We watched this in nursing school and it really helped with body structure concepts I was confused about.

    Saw this in middle school biology once. I wish they had shown _Cells at Work_ instead.

    I remember watching this movie in grade school and it traumatized me.
    Also been binge watching Dr Mike while I've got covid. Been making it a little better.
