BZ floating into space is disturbing


It used to give me the chills when I was a kid, and since it's the last shot in the entire movie it's the one that you end up leaving the film with.

I'm still left wondering why he could breath

Because showing what would really happen is a little F'ed up for a kids movie.

Well, he came back with his family, lived in an attic apartment and became a teacher!

It would have been more disturbing if they made it realistic, like what really would have happened to him being pulled into space.

Like how his lungs would have exploded as he left the Earth's atmosphere.

"Jesus, does anyone?"

Well he would have frozen to death and asphyxiated long before leaving the atmosphere. It struck me as a kid how similarly this film ends as THE BLACK HOLE with the villains essentially hurtling out into space. Another similar fate hits the malicious bear in the Lou Ferrigno HERCULES movie from 1983, which is easily the most hilarious of the three.
