10 More Movie Endings With Disturbing Implications You Totally Missed
4. Luca Will Still Be Persecuted - Luca
As is the case with any Pixar movie, Luca is an emotional rollercoaster of a story. In this case, the titular sea monster heads to the human world in his human form, makes new friends and finds new passions that he never would have experienced under the sea.
In the small Italian town of Portorosso, sea monsters like Luca and Alberto were hunted and persecuted until the day they were truly revealed and accepted. From there, Luca travelled with Giulia to Genoa to go to school in a wonderful happy ending for everyone.
Except Genoa would not be the same as Portorosso for Luca. Sea monsters were a known thing in the small Riviera town, and though they were ultimately accepted in the small community, the same couldn't be said about where he and his friend were going to school. He would have still been forced to hide his true self while getting his education.
This means that any time there was rain he would be cornered. No swimming in public. No spilled drinks, and who knows how perspiration works in this universe? Either way, Luca would have still ultimately lived in mortal terror of being discovered as a sea monster no matter where in the world he settled.
