I was thinking about it when I was sleeping last night. The Gua County police said that Porter's person could not be found after he threw himself into the river five years ago, so he was treated as death. At the beginning of the film a light goes down and Potter appears, which is the same form as when the bass disappears at the end, so I believe KPAX brought Potter to the planet KPAX five years ago.
The one chosen to go to KPAX at the end of the film is to write about the homeless bass. Bass's concept of family should be vague, which is also in line with KPAX's statement that the concept of family does not exist on KPAX planet, so in the end Bass was selected to go to KPAX planet.
Why did you send Potter back? I think because Potter went to KPAX before, and family is a wound in his heart that can no longer be touched, not that the concept of family does not exist, so Potter is not happy there, even painful is not suitable for the planet Life. KPAX sent him back to Earth, and made a circle to let the doctor understand and take good care of the vegetative Potter.
KPAX thought very clearly at the end, bring back a person who is incompatible with the concept of the world, or a person who fits the concept of KPAX planet, so why is it in the New York mental hospital, why is it in this group of people who are incompatible with the earth. Choose someone to go back to. Because some of the mentally ill here may be "normal" on KPAX.
In the end, the nonsense I wanted to say came into my mind. I was thinking that human civilization is developing at a high speed. Modern people believe in scientism and pursue materialist dialectics of data and evidence. It breeds blind worship and self-inflation of scientific authority. When I was a child, my friends and classmates and I would discuss some very ethereal things, such as UFOs, aliens, deep-sea monsters, Nessie, ghosts, and zombies. Doubtful. And now the children of our age have rarely heard such absurd and useless topics, which electronic product is better, which concept is correct, how to arrange the interest class tomorrow, a little less innocence , or my prejudice again, this is the innocence of this generation of the 21st century.
If we can't use the means we currently know to verify and judge the existence or non-existence of things, perhaps things are beyond the scope of our knowledge, should it not be the shackles of strengthening the existing concepts of science and exercise the increasingly robust ridicule of different viewpoints? Ability, if there is only one truth for everything, and everything can be digitized and standardized, then the earth is too boring. Going back to the beginning, if we can’t judge and can’t verify, then we should convince ourselves, try to believe, try to experience, and don’t lose our continuous concept of progress, be thirsty for knowledge, and be humble.
In the end, I think this is still a philosophical film wrapped in a sci-fi theme. The shooting method is like "This Man From Earth", but at the core, he is closer to "Contact with Time and Space"!
