If the film 65 with Adam Driver were to have a plot twist, what do you think it would be?

Submitted by Aralmin t3_11ddcml in movies

I have given this some thought and from the trailer so far, the film looks like your standard fare of scifi action films and I would expect there is nothing out of the ordinary with the plot of this film. So what if this film did have a plot twist? I imagine this film could just be about a man and a little girl trying to survive the harsh environment and dangers around them with nothing further to see.

Except, what if what we were presented was there to fool us? What if for example right halfway through the movie, the film takes a completely different turn than what was expected and the film turns into something that is almost like an entirely different genre. I am imagining for example as the duo is stumbling around the planet trying to survive, they stumble on to a civilization on the planet or perhaps some sort of dimensional gateway and the world they are inhabiting is not what it appears at all. At that point the film becomes almost like a mixture of Moonfall, Interstellar and Planet of the Apes. I don't think it's a coincidence that this film is similar to Planet of the Apes, in the original Planet of the Apes it seems that the ship that ends up in a post-apocalyptic Earth ruled by apes could be due to the ship entering some sort of time dilation where time moved much faster in that pocket of space than the space around it or perhaps the ship entered another alternate dimension that is similar to our own that happens to take place in a post-apocalyptic world. But none of this is new however, once upon a time ago there was a cheesy B-movie named Planet of Dinosaurs that was kind of a spoof and tribute to Planet of the Apes which surprisingly is very entertaining. So in a way I would say that this film is more like a film that was inspired by the plot of Planet of Dinosaurs.

Or the film fades, and we see a bunch of clothed dinosaurs sitting in a cinema, having just watched a screening of ‘cocaine human’

the kid is autistic and the last scene is of them in a hospital bed staring at a dinosaur in a snowglobe.

He didnt travel to the past, he is in fact in the future. Life on Earth ended after a cataclysmic event and its going through the whole stages of evolution all over again.

If it sounds very dumb its only because it is very dumb.

I had this same thought and am throughly convinced this is the twist.

Or the last dying dinosaur whispers to him ‘I ask you, who is the real monster? No, not I’. Adam drops to his knees and cries out. Fade to black. The end?

They are not on Earth in the past but actually another planet.

It’s actually a Godzilla movie. Godzilla is the final boss and the dinosaurs are his spawn.

Seconding u/Livebyyourwits’ suggestion that it takes place in Nurassic Park, adding that Adam Driver dies in the first reel and it’s really about the kid.

I don't see a connection unless you imply that the meteor or asteroid that destroyed the dinosaurs instead brought a deadly cargo inside which is the Death Angels and then they wiped out all major life forms on Earth. Well I suppose in that sense its plausible but then how would you explain how the marine animals and flying animals go extinct as well? In the films, it is shown that they can't swim. It is also never shown what their life cycle is either, how do they die? What do they eat? They kill everything else around them and then they all die of starvation?

It’s going to be what 90-95 minutes? Will there be time for plot twists? Except for the one after the credits teasing the sequel?

That they didn't end up there by accident but by 3rd party plan. (Government, big corporation, rogue elements, whatever.)

Neve Campbell's Sidney Prescott saves him at the last minute, and it's revealed she was sucked into this alternate dimension Earth. Neatly explains her absence from Scream 6 which opens the same day.

That adam driver is just in a futuristic theme park experience where humans and dinosaurs battle each other for survival. Then the movie twists again when you're shown driver is jist an AI human program that believes he is real and in fact it is the dinosaurs that are paying for the theme park experience to battle the humans

My guess would be that they are Adam and eve. Figuratively. 65 million years ago, humans land on a planet full of dinosaurs. 65 million years later, here we are. I think it's fair to assume from the trailer that they can't leave.

I am wondering that as well. How is the story and plot going to tiptoe around the fact that they just crashed on a planet full of hostile creatures? What is the resolution? Everyone dies? Everyone is saved by a third party? It is for reasons like this that makes me wonder what is really going on under the surface. Maybe in the film it won't seem like a twist, maybe the ending reveals something that was just overlooked from earlier in the film. But in the end, I don't really see where the plot can go other than flashbacks and seeking a new home to live in. That is the only resolution that I see.

All the dinosaurs are so thicc. Like fat thicc.

I’ll just say it. Fat. Fat dinos. Is that a twist?

My take from the trailer is that they landed on earth during a particular dinosaur timeline (Jurassic?). The film is called 65 and dinosaurs became extinct 65 million years ago. So they traveled back in time. However, I should say I don’t know anything about the story, I’ve avoided the trailers but only copped a bit here and there.

To answer your timeline-question, it‘s the Cretaceous, not the Jurassic.

Driver's last line in the film is "Life, uh, finds a way" and the audience realizes he's an ancestor of Dr Ian Malcolm.
