The whole movie was trash tier - more slop for the Nolan dudebros who desperately want to be perceived as intelligent.
Except The Fly kept the audience's suspension of disbelief and felt grounded no matter how weird it got. The Substance progressively got more over-the-top and ridiculous until it went full retard by the end.
Because Crew-9 is a full multi-month mission to the ISS with other astronauts. Before launching in September two of the original crew were removed to accommodate Butch/Suni - this wasn't some specific rescue mission launched for the sole purpose of their return, it was an upcoming mission that was modified for a secondary purpose. This all takes tremendous planning and launching crew to space is highly complex, it's not as simple as "well just send an extra rocket up there".
They do these missions in rotation, so once Crew-10 arrives, that's when 9 will return to Earth. This plan has not changed since August:

If you want a lot more details though, feel free to read this post by Everyday Astronaut (someone who was originally going to fly on Starship until Dear Moon was cancelled, and has done numerous technical interviews with Elon on spaceflight): https://x.com/Erdayastronaut/status/1884673172533903481
Wouldn't surprise me in the slightest, seeing how utterly clueless you are about this topic. Some of us have been following SpaceX since its inception in the early 2000s, boy.
Considering that I've been a fan of SpaceX and Elon likely before you even knew they existed - yes. I don't hope however that Elon is successful with bizarre lies like this one, seemingly pandering to the uninformed and pushing false narratives in no way dissimilar to the left. Props to you for course correcting on the topic.
I'm also glad Trump has already begun to reverse some of the insanity of the Biden administration, but I will call out any and all bullshit regardless of wherever it's shat out from.
I was glad when SpaceX originally altered the seating of Crew-9 for that purpose, months ago. Are you going to acknowledge reality that this has literally nothing to do with Trump, or are you going to continue to behave like a mindless automaton?
This is actually complete bullshit on Musk's part - the Dragon spacecraft (Crew-9) that's going to take them home is already docked at the ISS and has been since September. Two of the original crew were removed in order to accommodate Butch/Suni after Starliner returned unmanned.
It has literally nothing to do with Trump coming into office. Trump may be uninformed about the issue, but Elon certainly isn't... and he chose to blatantly lie about it anyway. As I've said before, I've defended him for many years against smear campaigns and the like, but there's really no defense for this. It's straight BS.
If only he had gone a bit more remote and stayed away from this turd of a script entirely, and anything even vaguely involving Mark Wahlberg. For shame, Mel.
Damn, dude was a true artist - time to do a bunch of rewatches. RIP
