Its about the story of Genesis. There's mother Earth, Father God. Adam and Eve, and then everything goes batshit insane. It makes far more sense if you go into it knowing that.

Or maybe an allegory about global warming.
Or writer's block.
Or celebrities.

Those things may influence certain parts of the movie, but no, its pretty well established that I'm right.

I never saw it, honestly. It just looked like an incoherent, pseudo-philosophical mess to me.

How original.

I figured it had some religious symbolism after how the husband's huge following was treating him as a god figure of sorts.

I read an article about the symbolism though, and it seems many people take different interpretations to the movie. Aronofsky does basically confirm the "God, Adam, and Eve" allegory though.

You're not far off. I enjoyed it because I give movies such a wide berth and try to like absolutely everything, but this movie was definitely a bit out there and if you didn't put in effort to make it work, then it really didn't work lol.
