Not sure if the spoiler tag is working, tried to send this earlier but lemm.ee was down:
::: The brunette love interest. Came in, showed interest in splitting attention with Mickey, disappeared the rest of the movie until she shows up with a random girl at the end.
The dictator/politician guy getting puked on by the alien and having a noticeable cough in the later scenes, with no payoff.
The guy in the pigeon suit? Never explained.
The secret team on the deck that facilitated the mutiny by recording the torture of the alien, never explained or hinted at until they literally show up and say "we need more for our team".
The weird Church/cult vibe and hymn? Never explored.
How the alien knew his name before they had a translator or knew English? Alien's answer? "SECRET" :::
Ah, I thought you meant branching in context of the main hook. Something along the lines of Primer.
Yeah, I totally agree with you regarding those points, it was pretty strange.
Btw, spoilers don't seem to work. I think the last bit of code needs to be on separate line.

Another thing I noticed was one of the very last scenes where they were re-printing a new Mark Ruffalo. I wondered if that was supposed to be some kind of big different ending, but turned out to just be Mickey having fantasize the whole thing. I thought they were gonna show that the thing that they were demonizing they were doing the entire time.
