Who doesn’t love a bleak dystopia? The last of humanity riding around a frozen planet in a highly classist train society, hell, why not? It’s always time to join a revolution.

Man, I did not see that coming and it made everything that happened until then appear in a whole new light. The ending keeps with the new nihilistic tone and thus is perfect.
