Old scientist's rescue plan

Watching "9", I feel pretty good. But many people are spraying the ending...In fact, if you understand it, you will find that the plot is very complete. We will understand by analyzing the rescue strategy of the old scientist.
Let's look at it from the very beginning.
The old scientist created the big robot and transferred his wisdom to it. Because if the soul is transferred, the old scientist will also die. But I never thought that robots with only intelligence could not judge good and evil. They were used by the government to make weapons, and they were controlled by evil and killing. So the big machine began to destroy organic life (the whole world released poisonous gas), and all the machines it made obeyed him. Under the powerful power of machines, human beings are completely powerless to return to heaven.
The old scientist deeply felt self-blame, and at the same time wanted to understand the reason. So a plan to save lives was drawn up. This plan contains the following components:
1. Your own soul (spread into 9 puppets)
2. Mysterious disc (this function is also very magical and cannot be explained at present)
3. The energy of the big robot (may mean wisdom)
Then let's guess about this plan:
Step 1, keep your soul with a puppet, and divide it into 9 parts for insurance (at least two are needed to complete the plan), and one can complete the plan even if one is destroyed.
Step 2 Restart the big machine through the disc.
Step 3: When the big machine absorbs the soul, a puppet takes the opportunity to recapture the disc, which in turn takes away the wisdom of the big machine (it cannot be taken out without being awakened) and the soul sucked away by it . And sealed in the disc.
Step 4 The ritual at the end of the film, the soul + the wisdom of the big machine, brings new life under the power of the mysterious disc.
Therefore, every plot of the film is to complete this plan, including 9 large machines that are also part of the plan, and the final plan is to successfully return to the earth.
Supplementary explanation:
1. The function of the disc is too mysterious. Many unexplainable questions such as why the soul can return to life after ascending to heaven can be regarded as the supernatural power of the disc.
2. The ultimate goal of the old scientist is to bring organic life back to the earth, not human beings.
3. When the soul is separated, each part is a complete soul, but it will highlight a certain characteristic of the original whole soul. The soul wants water. A glass of water is divided into nine parts, each of which can still be regarded as an independent part. So in fact, only a soul + wisdom can complete the plan.
4. The last symbol of rain is very strong. It is no longer a simple rain, but a symbol of the return of life to the earth.


PS: Personally, I think it’s easier to understand if you learn "Wall-E" and add the process of restarting life to the ending subtitles.

  • 1: I know enough to leave their ancient evils to molder. Look what they've left us with. Leave it be, I say! But YOU! Always asking questions. So many pointless questions. Probing. PUSHING. Like 2! He always had to know too much!

    9: I was right; you DID send him out to die!

    1: He was old! He was WEAK!

  • 1: When we awoke in this world, it was chaos. Man and machine attacked each other with fire and metal. I lead us here to sanctuary and here we waited for the war to end. Slowly, the world became silent. The only thing that remains now is The Beast. So we stay hidden, and we wait for it too, to sleep.

    9: But where did it come from? Why is it hunting us?

    1: Questions like that are pointless. We need to protect ourselves; keep ourselves out of danger.
