Did I black out or did the circle signature not make it into the movie? I remember the line about dreams and not being fit, but I don't remember seeing that image.
- emptybits 10y agoSaw the film last night. If you blacked out, then so did I. (Or else we're already only remembering what the heptapods want us to...) Like a lot of good sci fi I think this is one of those movies where I'd appreciate a Director's Cut or Extended Edition that includes obscure and technical and deep (read: nerdy) bits cut from wide release.
- SeanDav 10y agoThe signature scene did not make it to the film I saw, and the whole scene where she writes unaided and which is explained afterwards was a bit lacking. It should have been a pivotal moment, but was too easy to miss the significance of it. OFC my opinion.
- pronoiac 10y agoHuh, I remember reading a comment in this article, from the writer, to the effect that the circular signature didn't make it into the movie, making the blog post something of a director'a cut, but that comment isn't there now.
- gommm 10y agoIt didn't make it in the movie. The scene stopped after Louise saying "That doesn't make me unfit for the job". I actually think the circle signature shouldn't have been cut because without it, I felt that the entire scene fell a bit flat.
- iandanforth 10y agoOK, good. I totally agree. That line would have made a lot more sense, and helped clarify that section of the movie a lot had they left the signature in.
- pavel_lishin 10y agoFuck. I was really looking forward to seeing that.
