  • Osmosis Jones is an animated movie from 2001 starring Chris Rock as the titular white blood cell responsible for capturing viruses inside of Bill Murray's body. I remember seeing this as a kid and loving it, but I haven't taken another look at it since I went to medical school, so I was exciting to open it back up and check its accuracy. The jokes in here are so funny, but some of the medical elements are a little weak. Let me know down below if you think I should check out the TV series, Ozzy and Drix!

He was about tog et on the bus/train (I forget) to exit the body (probably through urine?) as essentially a metaphor for this stuff like, dissolving or something after X amount of time. They'd only be able to have long term effects if they stayed permanently like Drix chose to. So unless we make sapient over the counter meds in the future that don't dissolve or lose whatever "it" is that lets them fight symptoms, it can't happen.

    I'm not a doctor, but I remember watching Dr. Hope reacting to this movie and he gave a good description on Thrax's motives. According to him, Thrax's objective wasn't just to give Frank a fever, but to cause his body to completely lose its regulation. That would cause severe hyperthermia (or hypothermia), leading to all bodily functions failing. Plus, Thrax wasn't planning to stick around after that.

    • @fist-of-doom487
      @fist-of-doom487 5 месяцев назад +39

      Fun fact Thrax is called the Red Death which is a reference to a fictional disease by the same name in Edgar Allen Poe’s story. In there people with the disease heat up so much they start sweating blood, absolute melt down. A disease like that could be extremely deadly and highly contagious. Hospitals, homes maybe even the streets just covered in blood and sweat as it jumps from creature to creature. It’d increase the age rating if they did that in here but the basic concept remains. A man who’s burning from the inside and a disease which is both extremely destructive and highly contagious. Cells exploding, inflammation and internal scaring, the body loses the ability to regulate temperature and just melts down, then something as simple as a cough can spread it to others.

Doctors who prescribe Tylenol may do so to alleviate the pain that comes with fever, rather than reducing the temperature itself.

    Even as a kid, I figured this movie wasn't trying to be 100% medically accurate but DANG if it wasn't fun to watch and/or discuss in school. It made biology more interesting. I'll always have a place in my heart for this film. I wouldn't call it a masterpiece, but it was memorable & innovative in some ways for its time, especially the fight between Osmosis and Thrax (I re-watched it so many times as a kid ). It was short, but well animated and made me view white blood cells as microscopic bad-asses.
    I'd LOVE a AAA action-RPG with a similar premise to Osmosis Jones and Cells at Work someday: Essentially, create/customize your own white blood cell, explore a vast open world map of the human body you help protect, cooperate with fellow cells (among other microbes) and fight varied threats to said body. As you progress + level up, you'd unlock new abilities for your character while upgrading existing traits (all based on real white blood cell functions). The concept alone has great potential!

    Can we all agree that Thrax is *easily* one of the most badass animated villains ever? I remember seeing this as a kid and being terrified of him because his voice actor was smooth and evil ! Something about how casually evil he is and this being a freaking body horror movie for kids set me up for some very weird phobias growing up for a while lol The idea of this happening in my body was very spoopy for me 😂 Thank you for giving me closure on my childhood fears Dr. Mike ✌️

    YES!! Loved this movie. The point of thrax was that he was a NEW virus that worked differently from regular viruses. He's only killed like maybe 3 or 4 people. His goal was to get recognized by the outside world in medical books. and heat obviously doesn't bother him since he's got the finger of fire.

      @@IceMetalPunk The little Spanish speaking disease Drix freezes calls him "the red death," probably a reference to the fictional plague in the Edgar Allen Poe's short story, 'The Masque of the Red Death.' Although, the symptoms don't match, as the Red Death causes dizziness and bleeding from the pores, with no attention given to fever.
      I remember, years ago, fans said Scarlet Fever best matches Thrax's symptoms but we see Scarlet Fever in the TV series and it doesn't resemble Thrax.
      The crew of the film clarified he's meant to be a far worse form of the Hong Kong chicken flu.

    I love how smart our bodies are. When you get sick, you often get a fever(the flu is the best example). Our bodies know that they can turn up the temp to kill whatever is causing the sickness. It knows that it will kill the virus before it kills itself. I don't take drugs when I get sick because all they do is mask symptoms. My body needs those symptoms to decide what to do. If it needs a low-grade fever to kill a virus, then I don't want to be taking a fever reducer like acetaminophen(found in tylenol and most cold medicine). If my body decides that we need a little fever, I'm gonna let it do that. Obviously I keep a close eye on it, but I don't interfere unless it gets out of hand.

    Yeah, with your insights it's pretty easy to see how they should've done the movie better. The patrol in the first part should've been in the bloodstream (maybe a high speed pursuit of a pathogen?), Thrax's nature should have been more clear (as a virus, there is a lot of potential for animated body horror. Between initial infection brainwashing cells to "see things his way", to them exploding as he grows his own crew), Thrax's plan should've been more in line with with symptoms that are caused by him, and not merely the body's response to him, and most importantly chest compressions.

    I still say we need a "Doctor Reacts to Footless Joe Amputation Story." There was so much I didn’t expect to learn from that.

    I remember seeing some of this as a kid and I got terrified of getting some infection like this. I was a very scared and timid child lol

    This was so funny mikes reaction to the doctor had me rolling even I knew someone should've been doing chest compressions. And having seen both the movie and TV show back in the day this was and awesome bit of nostalgia.

    Laurence Fishburne playing Thrax is giving the same energy as Erik Delluns playing Aaravos- I should not be attracted to the villain… And yet, here we are. 💀
