what are you talking about?
he's the husband and father of the child AA has in the future. His purpose is to be there so they don't have to add frivolous backstory about some other guy she marries & has a kid with knowing the future and knowing the child is going to die. Him being there being a part of it all, and thus knowing that she knows the future, means he divorces her for deciding to go through with having the kid, where as if it were some other random guy, he would of just wrote her off as nuts

I liked the movie for what it was. It was a good drama. The sad music at various parts was great, or maybe it was just me thinking about my own daughter that made me sad. *shrugs*
I liked it. Why did the octopus creatures need cloudy shit to move around? Wouldn't it have been more conducive for their "aquarium" like thing to be clear?

If we wanna be anal about it, doesn't Renner character make the "breakthrough" that the language seems to be about "time", he just can't grasp it, but this is enough for AA to make her own breakthru, along with him figuring out that they need all 12 pieces of info.

First. Anyone who's never even thought about humping their cousin just has an ugly family.

I went in without watching previews, just knowing it was well received. I thought it was very well written.
Worth watching, but I didn't feel the theater added much to the experience.

My opinion: Abbot is the real hero.
The aliens knew what would happen because of how they perceive time. Abbot sacrificed himself to deliver knowledge to the humans and save their species.

Are you telling me that Pacific Rim wasn't a SJW movie? The best actors in the film were a young asian girl and a black man while all of the whiteys died left and right. Hell, Elba even had to step up and sacrifice himself for the dad's white privilege.
Just a coincidence you say? Check out the sequel cast. Starts with John Boyega, then an Indian American, Lebanese American, Japanese, Chinese, hot Asian woman.

This guy is somehow stupider and more biased than Anita Sarkeesian...
Is seeing 'reverse racism' in everything any different than seeing misogyny in everything?

Got around to seeing this. Things clicked when
She said her father was the science guy. Then later when she asks the alien who the girl in her memory is cements what was going on completely.
On a side note, the alien saying that in 3k years they need humanity's help also means the aliens live REALLY long lifespans, since we assume they saw this future as part of their individual experience.
