I was just watched snowpiercer on noobroom (was kinda annoying how Nam's korean wasnt subtitled at all, and he had some long lines that werent translated by the machine they used).

How is the ending different, besides there being two survives, who will surely die soon anyway out in the open like that, even if the polar bear is supposed to represent hope.
Money was pretty haunting in parts.
How laughably dumb humans can be though, unjust dictatorship, lets just blow up the only thing keeping us alive...

Yeah for sure, but still, Curtis was given the FULL AND CLEAR PICTURE, despite the maniac Wilford was, he gave him all he needed to understand whats at stake, and I understand being driven by emotion when seeing what he did with the kids, but what was the alternative of that point, was going on in his mind? Let Nam and his daughter blow up the train, for what? Just gave up? The conditions were inhuman, but the atlernative is lets blow up the train and kill all of mankind?
I really LIKED the film though, enough to immediately tell my brothers they need to see it hehe.
It Children of men kind of vibe, being more haunting and reflective in some ways about the human condition, I liked the most the slow scenes, and the raw tension just before the outright insane violence

Briefly in school like 12 years ago lol, mainly professor lecturing about it (how absurd and meaningless life can be), but now that you mention him, its also prolly somewhat based on another Camus work I remember alot more (first one read), "The rebel" is quite fitting for the themes of this movie.
Regarding the ending, the director talks about it here a bit:

Its connected but not that significant.. Having said that, I would definitely recommend the Raid and then Raid 2, there is an actor who is in both but plays a different character entirely, so dont get confused when you watch it.
I just watched Grand Budapest Hotel! Such a stunning artistic movie! It has to be up there with one of my all time favorites.. Absolutely loved it 10/10

You can just watch it, even if plotwise its somewhat connected, but not integral. But I would DEFENITELY watch them in order just for the action itself (and less confusion, there's badass who's in both movies who play different characters, better see first to fully get the difference hehe), because the first movie is like nonstop all out one single building setting mayhem, while the 2nd one, is quite different, its more of a broader gangster story, even if it still has the insane action and MORE, its more widespread (like an hour longer then first almost) and slower paced fare. Mood wise I think its better to watch them in order to then compare them.
