So do they show him planting the flag or don’t they? Yes or no?
they didnt show him “planting” the flag, but the flag is shown “planted” and the movie has United States and Flags all over it. so the whole “not patriotic” thing is total BS.
They clearly show the flag on the surface of the moon. They don’t show him planting it, but they don’t show a lot of details that they could have shown throughout his career, so I didn’t see it as a slight, since the American flag is clearly shown planted on the moon while he and Aldrin are bounding around.
