The Axons have landed on
Earth and need to refuel. In exchange
for this, they offer up Axonite, a miracle substance that according to them is
a ‘thinking’ molecule that can replicate any substance. But you should never believe everything you’re
told!!!
The Axons are using the
axonite to drain the energy from the planet, including every living thing. Nice aren’t they!

Spike Lee, David Thewlis, Carl Reiner,
