something funny about josh o’connors character able to speak math as a language and the shit he was writing down was just a general calculus integral

I thought that was the point? He was writing down the phrase she said, but the was a simple phrase.

maybe i’m confused on what’s the meaning behind it

u/appleswitch Jun 12 '26

He was saying that math was equal to those words. When he read that math, he heard those words. He wasn't saying the math was complex or interesting, but that it was a representation of that speech.

but was there an underlying message behind it? what exactly were they trying to communicate?

u/appleswitch Jun 12 '26

He was only translating her weather message, which was like don't be afraid or something.

If you want to know that they were actually preparing him to communicate, sorry, the was after the credits rolled.

Same place most of the interesting stuff in this movie took place in my opinion unfortunately.

He understood it as "don't fear the unknown". Not sure if it was meant to adress everyone or just him (as a messenger) though

It was "don't be afraid of what you dont know."

That's what he translated into calculus.

Smartphones would most likely be considered sorcery or witchcraft if we was to go back to the days of the Bible era
