Mission to Mars (2000) — Enhanced Citations

Notes

Not a picture cut. Theatrical film stays intact. Work is a second English subtitle track.

Why this cut

The theatrical dialogue never says “asteroid” or “wrecked.” The crew says “It’s Mars.” / “That’s where they went.” / “One stayed behind. Earth, before the continents separated.” / “They seeded Earth.” / “They’re us. We’re them.” Enhanced citations surface the AU-062 reading of that hologram — without touching the picture.

What changed

• Second English track: dialogue plus AU-062 cards in gaps; credits conversation
• Default track stays theatrical dialogue only
• Hologram cards cover the water-world / continents / seed-mask reading of the face reveal
• Credits cards place the film in the late-90s / early-2000s window (ID4 → Fifth Element → Lebowski → Mummy → this film → Mars RV stamp)

Subtitles

Your player may offer two English tracks:

• English — dialogue only (default)
• English (citations) — dialogue plus short on-screen notes
