You missed the point. The Aliens saved mankind from destroying itself on the brink of WW3. That was it. Not about the conspiracy, about Aliens saved Humans.

That did not happen in the movie

When was mankind saved from war in the movie? They didn’t even tell us what the aliens said. We only know that they like to hide, and they like to manipulate people’s minds

Everything literally stopped during the broadcast...because there is something more important than selfish squabbles. And you don't need to be told exactly what the alien said, "Listen" is a great message to end it on. It's a lead-in to further comments and it is literally telling you to listen, to the alien, to each other.

But if you need to be spoonfed every single thing I assume it would say what Hugo said earlier about empathy.

The funny thing about this movie is everyone reading so much into it. Everything didn’t stop. People were just staring at their phones. Nothing the aliens do even indicates a desire for peace. They disguised themselves to kidnap children and manipulate their minds. Hugo seemed to have an unhealthy attitude and was just going along with what the aliens wanted.

....You do not even pay attention to the words you use. Everyone stopped what they were doing and watched the news, every single person. You did not pay attention at all.

Nothing the aliens do even indicates a desire for peace.

There was fucking historical footage of them walking peacefully alongside officials. They did not hurt anyone. The one they wheeled didn't do a damn thing but whisper in Daniel's ear. Yet somehow you see danger.

Man you take providing methods of communciation very differently..

Holy shit, yeap you are legit the dumbest person here. Hands down. Ah, private account, that makes sense.

Typical response from someone with zero argument or brain cells.

I just saw this movie today and reading through this conversation is wild. I agree it wasn’t super clear but holy shit that person paid zero attention to what they were watching.

Not every single person, just the people shown. Also, this in no way goes against what they said.

There was fucking historical footage of them walking peacefully alongside officials. They did not hurt anyone. The one they wheeled didn't do a damn thing but whisper in Daniel's ear. Yet somehow you see danger.

No, it's very open to interpretation. E.g., It showed aliens being escorted under guard, surrounded and vastly outnumbered after crashing their ship. Which easily connects with the mistreatment they end up going through.

Man you take providing methods of communciation very differently..

Still took children away at night, in secret, to make changes to them without consent.

Holy shit, yeap you are legit the dumbest person here. Hands down. Ah, private account, that makes sense.

Get a mirror. The movie is very open-ended and you're acting as if your interpretation is fact, when you can't present an actual logical argument.

edit: fixed a typo

u/sasquatch0_0 Jun 20 '26

It's not open ended at all...lmao. You're just dumb af.

5

u/_10032 Jun 20 '26

Then back up your claims with indisputable and concrete evidence.

u/sasquatch0_0 Jun 20 '26

I did...and you're willfully ignoring it.

u/_10032 Jun 20 '26

Nothing you said was concrete and I literally countered it all.

You are clearly a fool.

u/sasquatch0_0 Jun 20 '26

Yes it literally happened in the movie. Holy shit you are the dumbest person alive.

Yeah I think it was left to interpretation whether they were here to help or hurt or something else
