Arrival was easily one of the best films of 2016, and all of us at CinemaSins just loved it. That being said... no movie is without sin. So...
Thursday: Something terrible from 2017.
Remember, no movie is without sin! Which movie's sins should we expose next?!

You know what blew my mind? Ian quoting Louise's book at the beginning and saying that language is the first weapon ever drawn in any conflict. THEN the aliens later say ''offer weapon'' and it turns out they're OFFERING THEIR LANGUAGE

They had enough understanding of the heptapods' language by then that they could finally ask "What is your purpose?" to which the aliens replied "offer weapon". The humans took that to mean that the aliens wanted them to offer them weapons, but it turns out the aliens' purpose was to teach them their language

Another moment worth re-watching is when them couple of idiots try to blow up the ship, the alien that died stays behind to save the main character because it knows its going to die anyway because it sees everything at once. I explained that really poorly so it probably doesnt make sense
@marielaberge8236
@marielaberge8236 6 років тому
No I get it. When Louise finally realised that their purpose was to teach their language and she explained that the language altered one's perception of time, I remember thinking that the dying alien must have known it would die if it came to Earth, but came anyway

Huey Freeman exactly my point. Also the movie say that events through time are set in stone, so I don‘t think not having her would even have been an option after the movies logic. Of course you can ask yourself „well if she just shoots herself right then and there, wouldn‘t that throw time off?“ but that‘s a question for the movie to answer lol.

Am I the only one not over the chaos of living your life all at once? Like, Jeremy says Louise talking to the general and getting the phone number was convenient, but in that non-linear way of thinking you're literally being hit with your past, present, and future all at once. God, that would be so disorienting and you can see the impact of it when she's interacting with her daughter. The real coincidence is that she managed to focus long enough to bring that future knowledge back to the precise point in the past where she needed it. Not to mention the absolute chaos of only knowing linear time and suddenly experiencing non-linear. That would be the definition of feeling yourself go insane.

They get into this in the short story, "Story of Your Life." Dr. Banks questions if knowing the future changes a person. It's impossible for us to imagine because we are slated in time, but you could ask if we would actually commit to actions. Just something to try and think about.

At 3:08, the part when Louise asks "how many are speaking" and Forest Whitaker waits to answer is perfect. It expands the reality of the moment. He's a full bird Colonel with discretion on what he can and can not say. If he had immediately answered it would have been him knowing the dialogue. Him taking a moment to weigh the situation, helped immerse me in the moment.

I think one of the most important aspects of this movie was the way it destabilized our understanding of language and context. Ian thought this was a math problem so it became a math problem and Louise thought this was a linguist problem so her mind became synced with the Heptapod’s understanding of time. We fail to grasp the ways our language affects how we think of ideas. The reason future Louise didn’t remember the phone call was because it hadn’t happened yet. Future Louise and Present Louise are both memories of each other simply forgotten until remembered. Future remembered the present just as present remembered the future. Just like the last line was “I’ve forgotten how good it felt to be held by you” despite that being the first time they had hugged. The reason we skip the first interaction is to prepare us for the jarring jumping through time where that meeting has always already occurred.

Nothing about his movie "destabilized our understanding of language and context". That makes no sense at all. It's just a bunch of words thrown together that don't mean anything coherent. This movie did not cause any change in the general understanding of language in the real world. "Destabilize our understanding of context" is gibberish altogether. This was just a decently directed science fiction movie, well-designed to make audiences feel smarter than they are.
@ShreyasTripathy93

@@Dorian-_-Gray You missed the main premise of the movie, then. It starts with the translation and meaning of the Sanskrit word because it wants you to understand that just because you know the translation of a word in a different language, doesn't mean you know its meaning and how it may be used in a sentence or in a certain context. "Destabilizing our understanding of language and context" isn't just gibberish. It has a very clear meaning if you understand what the movie is truly about. The movie is about how bias can completely change how you interpret things

Can we just appreciate this movie for not holding your hand? Her translation about the cows showing that she has a neutral bias to translating words in context, but you would have to think carefully to realize it. A lot more “show not tell” than most movies we see these days, like the gravity switching and witnessing scenes with her rather than her explaining them as she walks. Having an actually awesome plot twist and is epic and that most viewers would not see coming.

Just like any memory of the past, sometimes it is hard to recall clearly and immediately.

I think Louise experiences time non-consecutively but still linearly, so instead of going from time A to time B to time C like a normal human she goes from time A to time C to time B, each moment doesn't lead to the next consecutive moment in time. That's my explanation to why she suddenly seems to know nothing when she meets General Shang, its because future Louise is suddenly replaced by past Louise who now needs to know what's going on.

The most unrealistic thing in this movie (yes, more unrealistic than the aliens) was bringing in ONE linguist and ONE physicist (both too young to have substantial recognition). I imagine in a scenario like this they would rather create a team consisting of the best and most renowned linguists, interpreters, encryptors/decryptors, mathematicians, possibly biologists and maybe physicists. I get it was a secret project but that doesn't excuse giving that important task to only two people. I get that more people means more disagreement but also disagreement means the supervisors get to know various viewpoints and interpretations while getting more argumentation behind each idea and hypothesis. It would be a mess, I know, but closer to the truth than one person's neatly explained theory. Still, I think it's an amazing movie, really loved it overall.

But in the beginning of the movie we (the audience, but not her) can see events from the future, mixing the linear time of the story and the movie, which makes it a lot more interesting and mind blowing.

Same scenario, why is one possible and the other not? You might say: well this and that but it's just as possible as a world leader who you've never meet before walks up to you, gives you his phone number and tells you something he heard from you 10-20 years ago, that somehow you don't already know....

The very beginning of the movie where she's with the child and all the flashes throughout the movie. At first the audience obviously doesn't know yet that those scenes are from her future, so we'll easily think that they are flashbacks because they are used in a very similar way (the editor of the movie also mentioned about this in an interview. Trust me, I wrote my bachelor's thesis about this subject so I did my research and analyzed the movies, Arrival was one of them).

Living in a nonlinear timeline means that Event B may be experienced before Event A while in a linear timeline Event A is a prerequisite for the occurrence of Event B. However, it also means that the timeline may branch out in complex ways with multiple past leading to different presents and futures. Also, the observer is able to experience multiple points on the timeline simultaneously. The subject as presented in the movie is to retain a primary existence in the present but able to experience forward and backward in the timeline in a limited way. This makes sense for a being with a finite mind. You could hypothesize that a being with near infinite mental faculties could forego an existence characterized by experiencing single discrete moments in the timeline in favor of an existence that is spread uniformly across time in a state of simultaneity. This is assuming the language is unconstrained and allows for this to occur... How this language remains consistent with the laws of physics--particularly causality--is the real question.

I don't really agree with the sin at 13:33, the whole point of Louise and Ian's job was to figure out a way to communicate with the aliens, as to get the real reason they arrived in the first place; hence the argument for teaching them kindergarten words. If Louise had managed to communicate enough to start understanding their language, I think it would be safe to assume she had managed to teach them enough to understand ours as well. Although, since we find out the Heptapods don't see time as linear, it would probably be safe to also assume that the aliens did in fact know english (and all other languages) from the very beginning. However it seems as though that would've made it too easy for us. I think the idea was that the Heptapods wanted us to actually LEARN the language, not just be given it. And of course to inevitably work together to finish learning the language. After all, they needed humanity as a whole to help save them in the future, not divided as they were.

the point was for humans(louise) to learn their language (knowing their language rewires the brain into seeing/thinking time like they do), they didn't want just to communicate with humans. when you learn a second language, most teachers don't speak the language you already know, they speak in the new language even though you don't know a word of it. After learning a couple of languages besides my mother tongue, I can totally understand the concept that a new language rewires your brain.

You missed sinning the dumbest conversation in the entire movie: - "Language is the cornerstone of society" - "No, science is the cornerstone of society" Yeah sure, but you know god damn well you wouldn't have science if we didn't have language first. But I guess they had to throw the "Hawkeye is a science buff" thing in our faces.

yea. They probably wrote that line thru gritted teeth. Contradicts most of the movies claims to language as fundamental to our way of thought.

Maths, physics, biology, equations don't need translation. It is a language itself
@paramitch
@paramitch 3 роки тому
No, Renner's character was right. Pure science transcends language. See also mathematics, physics, astronomy, etc., which can be shared regardless of language and with instant understanding. It's also a core point of Carl Sagan's "Contact." That doesn't mean language is unimportant. But language is by its very nature divisive and localized. Science and mathematics transcend that. So I really don't think the point was, "Oh hey, let's give the guy who played Hawkeye a moment." It was earned and important to his character.

I have to say this movie is a general masterpiece. The soundtrack is just great and not cliche. The plot is amazing and as a linguistic enthusiast talking about the non linear of their time and language is very interesting to me.

Biggest sin: there is no way a linguist trained in several languages would teach English to aliens. If they were going to use a language with a phonetic alphabet, they would use Esperanto. But, more likely, the aliens (which seem to communicate with language with no sound attached) would be more responsive to character system, like Japanese Kanji.

@HenriqueErzinger 6 років тому
Yes, there's the military thing, but also english is, from the major languages, one of the easiest, with the most straight forward grammar and smallest vocabulary there is. Kanji is hard even for native speakers.

@markos9531
@markos9531 6 років тому
StarWarsomania Esperanto is simplest language that exists and mixes the sounds, letters & alphabets of all Latin languages like Spanish, French, Italian, English etc... Which means if the aliens learned Esperanto they could learn English, Spanish etc.. easier. Also, these are top minded scientists so they should ne able to learn basic phrases right? One sin for you! *Ding!*

The u.s. military is open to using other languages for communication. for instance, code talkers were natives who would use their language so it couldn't be decrypted by the enemy.

And all this time I still don't know how you would learn another language without any reference for it. The movie is partly about language and yet how exactly do the humans translate the alien language.
@sweetcherry2095
@sweetcherry2095 5 років тому
i'd assume they translate the human language after teaching them our language they show human written and point at themselves, they write human in their language, and just apply that to everything
@AudioArcturia
@AudioArcturia 2 роки тому
Linguistics is fucking complicated, and the people that develop translation are pretty smart. Looking for repetition or patterns correlated with "things" helps. The three minutes monologue probably glosses over that for the sake of runtime

@@AudioArcturia yeah I guess it's like learning Arabic or Chinese as an Englishmen in the 10th century would be mind boggling... for Discovery channel to explain haha I was expecting the aliens of Arrival to write as emotions or story format through time-ey time thing or individual experience so literally there's no alphabet or every squid ink circle is unique.

The premise of this movie is just "you gain another perspective when learns a new language", but this time the language is alien coffee stain, and the new perspective is time traveling. I just love this movie
@brando3342
@brando3342 3 роки тому
Technically it isn't "time travel" because they don't really "travel". Also the cinemasins narrator incorrectly states that the future is "essentially set in stone" when one of the main points is that Louise freely chooses to go along with the life she saw coming, regardless of the negatives. This is a great description of the static theory of time. That is where the past, the present and the future are all equally real at all times. We are just moving through the timeline. So, all times in Louise's life were real at all times, post meeting the aliens. That's why she seemed to experience her present and her future at the same time and has memories of future events as her present self. Anyway, just wanted to say that because I just finished reading a book all about time haha

The fact that this film was written so well was actually really unsettling. I’m not used to science-fiction films of that higher caliber that weren’t released after 1990.
