Discuss The Titan

The science dude is trying to save humanity by 'science-evolving' people to withstand the environment on Titan.

He does this by 'science-evolving' people, which he says 'effects everyone differently' so... each person will be a different new person-species? Who's to say they can all breed with each other after this has happened? And How would they repeat the success of a successful science-evolvee? (I'm assuming they could have misled the test subjects about this and actually could replicate their results - I mean they are liars, but then why not make that clear in the film - because as it stands it just seems like each evolvee would be a fluke). And if they're not meant to breed, is one dude meant to somehow make Titan liveable for normal humanity or something?

And END GAME: what is your end-game science-dude? Because what he does to the test subjects renders them so fundamentally different to human beings, both on a surface and DNA-level that: how tf is sending these test results into space 'saving humanity'? Aren't you just saving a new species? It's like if NASA sent a sign-language speaking chimp into space and said "Well, they share 99% of our DNA so: we've saved humanity! Pop the champagne! Mission Accomplished!"

Plus: what's WRONG with the wife?? Like lady! He just straight up slaughtered a bunch of people in front of your young son, and then you let him loose in the lab and there are all these men with machine guns shooting at him around your boy? BAD MOMMING.

Not the best thing on Netflix, but not the worst.

Considering he was as smooth as a Ken doll downstairs, perhaps they'd only grow test tube offspring.

Bad momming, perhaps. But good wife-ing.

Not to mention, they still end up sending him to Titan. Which is was what the scientist wanted all along. What was the point of letting him kill so many innocent soldiers? huh? So he could keep his wife and kid memories?

Also, how's removing ability to speak is "EVOLVING"? ROFLMAO.

What's he gonna eat on Titan? There are literally no other life-forms, not even bacteria alive afaik. That's fucking stupid.

Also, also, things like warm clothes and heating IS a huge reason why we can survive and thrive in coldest environments on Earth. Was that kinda overlooked? Why does Homo Titanus has to survive bare ass naked? Hahahahahahh

This movie did so much work on the setup only to squander it in the end. What on Earth is right!

Have to agree this premise had so much potential and then BAM!! went straight into the garbage.
