Alex Died...McCandless lived and Mick Jagger is still a bad guy.


This could very well be possible. I know its probably my imgination, but if they where to make a sequel, they could have it this way. Let me explain.

The code he recited at the end could of been correct and the transfer was complete. The whole scene about the driving slip-up and the "I lied" stuff by Mick could of been set up by MCcandless to trick Julie into thinking that transfer was not a success, so she would love him. Think about it. If you were in that position, you would know that there is no way Julie would ever love you for what you did. So why not trick Julie into thinking your the real deal and the transfer was unsuccessful? That way she would be in love with you and you would get what you want.

Good theory. But... "Nibble my ear". He wouldn't know about that unles he had assimilated Alex's mind too. I cannot believe I know that much about suck a whack film. Nonetheless. I like the idea!

During the mind transfer scene they did show Alex's memories going into Mac's mind.

reply

Okay, that's a fair point...

He left a note. He left a simple little note that said "I've gone out the window."

I thought about it and it couldn't possibly have happenend - no way. McCandelss can't drive! How would he fake driving if he didn't know how?

Easy as eating pancakes.

reply

Ahhhhh...but what if McCandless really could drive and only had Vicendack(sp) say that so it would be believable to Julie.

Actually, I think it ended the way it showed in the movie but it was fun thinking about it for a minute.

THIS MOVIE ENDED WITH MUSIC BY THE SCORPIONS, which means it ended on a "happy" note. -I've never once seen any movie using music by the Scorpions under bad following circumstances hahahahaaha.

reply

I love the Scorpions song! I'm listening to "Hit Between the Eyes" now. If only the film were a fraction of as good. To think that Mick Jagger put the Stones on the back-burner so he could make films like this.

reply

Jagger was always putting The Stones on the back burner to make bad movies. Starting with Performance and then Ned Kelly, and maybe more. This is by far the best Jagger movie, which isn't saying much. I kind of like it though, I was only 13 when it came out, so I have nostalgia for it, and the fact it is so cheesy just makes it fun. I have definitely seen worse movies in my lifetime, I've seen worse movies in my lifetime starring every one of the main actors/actresses in this film.

Just out of curiosity, have you seen "The Man From Elysian Fields"? Mick is very good in that, but it's a much different film from this one.

reply

WarpedRecord, I have not seen that one. Actually never heard of it. But I'll check it out.

Hello, AdmiralTugBenson: I'd highly recommend it. It's one of Mick's more nuanced roles, and I was very impressed. He plays the head of an upscale male escort service. It's a very "tweedy" film, much different from a popcorn flick like this.

reply

Well I've seen Mick in "Performance", which certainly isn't a "popcorn flick", and didn't like it. But in that movie he wasn't so much acting as he (as well as berg and Breton) were just messing around and spouting whatever came to their high minds. It had an interesting premise, I just thought the execution was sloppy and a chore to sit through. I'll check it out though, it can't be any worse than "Performance".
