god It was funny, I went with my friend and his mom and when we got out of the movie she was like,
"Do you think Tesla actually created a cloner like that?" And me and my friend just started laughing so hard.

it was realllly good. but wat do u mean by theories? i saw it with about 20 of my friends and the debate we had was whether the guy who got hanged actually had a twin or he created one with a machine that tesla gave him. i said they were twins for sure.

pretty much at the moment he dropped the guy on the stage either died or was alive on the arch. however, seeing as they are both the same, it doesnt really make a difference.
the only thing i see wrong with this, is that the guy who drops looked very suprised when he fell into a pit of watery death. however, if he (and the rest of them) were all the same man, wouldn't he have known the plot?
anyways cool movie fo shizzle

No I disagree. The Tesla coils were affective but the prism towers were more powerful in numbers.

they were all cloned each nite before they fell in the water. there was a line in the movie where the old guy tells him that someone told him that drowning was like going home so he didnt think that drowning would be bad. but he obviously found that it was wen he was in the tank.

i in turn disagree as well. i always found the triple threat of bunkers, prims and siege tanks (siege mode of course), would annihilate anything sent my way.

Bump.
The question whether the guy that was hung in the end was a clone or identical twin with the guy that lives in the end still puzzles me. Tesla said that he never made one like that before. Maybe he said the keyword was "tesla" just to baffle him and waste his years? Either way, it was a great movie.

i watched it, loved it, then realized the ending was actually really disappointing. In my opinion, it would've been 10000 times better if the plot twist wasn't cloning, but something actually realistic. Magic is honestly the dumbest plot twist possible. Of course you don't see it coming, because it would never happen in real life. And to everyone who says "tesla could have made that machine, he was a genious and went crazy and destroyed all his experiments and findings so it's possible"- it still doesn't make the ending any good. Great movie, minus the dumb ending.
