I keep coming back to one thing that stuck out to me, why did Mason take out her teeth?
'Heart Of Gold'
Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
Quester, June Thomas had the exact same question! (I don't know the answer. It was a very strange character beat.)
I have to disagree with:
the only bad CGI was the food vat.
because I thought the polar bear looked pretty obviously cartoonish as well.
In retrospect, the bit with the room full of axes makes sense, given that it was all a setup, but in the moment all I could think of was this scene from Galaxy Quest
I thought all the CGI was really bad. Every time they looked out the window it looked like a cartoon to me. The only thing I couldn't decide was whether or not that was on purpose.
At the end did anyone else think "Oh, look they survived and now they're going to get eaten by a polar bear." Just me?
I am seeing Snowpiercer tonight just so I can read all this freaking whitefont.
I thought that was the point of the end, sj.

That would be the one where you can see they re-dubbed Sigourney Weaver's original line?
Just spent some time envisioining Snowpiercer with Sigourney Weaver in Tilda Swinton's role. Bit of a mental fuckery.
ita, I think some people took the point as being yay there is life left on Earth!
Gack, my whitefont!! Put it back,put it back!
