However, imagine the rip in space time as opportunistic, a bit like The Thing. It consumes and reproduces reality and reality’s inhabitants as it encounters them from there. Clark happened to be in a location the company opened by accident perhaps. Perhaps its a naturally occurring wormhole which duplicates pace and time, but warps it around space time. The recursiveness is a bit like Interstellar.

]]> Comment on Insane Movie Sisu Ending Explained by Robert https://taylorholmes.com/2023/05/21/insane-movie-sisu-ending-explained/#comment-1195233 Tue, 28 Jul 2026 18:07:21 +0000 https://taylorholmes.com/?p=29770#comment-1195233 Taylor,

A puzzling film for a variety of reasons, and I agree with your take on many of the implausible situations, in addition to spearing a plane taking off, and somehow transferring to the tail mid-flight. The 1950’s TV Series Superman had similar scenes, where Superman puffs out his chest when shot at multiple times, but jumps out of the way when the gun is thrown at him to keep from being hurt. Lol.

As far as morality goes, the Nazi invasion of Finland at the end of WWII is hardly equivalent to this guy’s problem hanging on to his gold. But I agree with you, I did find it oddly entertaining to watch, albeit a very strange ending! The last movie I saw that was similarly perplexing to this one was Clockwork Orange many years ago, if you’re into watching gratuitous violence?

SISU morals: Good wins over Evil; don’t screw with people you don’t know, they may turn out to be crazy bastards! The General was obviously right about that.

I really respect your goal of using this space to grapple with the big questions of life while staying mindful of your own pride and weaknesses. It’s neat to feel like we’re “rubbing shoulders” here to help each other grow.

I really appreciate that your goal is to write about things that actually matter and grapple with the bigger meaning of life instead of just posting fluff. It definitely feels like you’re succeeding in building that connection and rubbing shoulders with us readers.

There’s something refreshing about games that trust the player’s imagination instead of throwing particle effects at everything. Thanks for the reminder to revisit it.

It really does prove your point that imagination does the heavy lifting. Lately I’ve been playing with AI tools that generate images and short videos from text prompts, which feels like the flip side of the same coin: text in, whole worlds out.

I mean. Not even close, but okay… we all get our own opinions I guess?

That’s why he was late picking up his daughter.
