The White Spikes of Tomorrow War Origins Species Explored | Where Did the Monsters Come From?

As a veteran and a police officer, the government repeatedly making catastrophic oversights and being their own worst enemy is the most accurate part of this movie

This movie is basically “an army of displacer beasts attack the world and almost everyone rolls a 1”

Whoever said you were a mediocre channel was jealous and is lying. You are so, so fun to watch, you make scientific explanations fun and engaging.

Something I've been wondering. If they can jump 30 years back in time, wouldn't it make more sense to bring one of the creatures back with them and have humanity prepare for their eventual arrival? 30 years of developing countermeasures sure seem like they could change the outcome.

"Should we tell them anything about what they're up against?" "No, that'll just discourage them from wanting to fight." "I mean...we could mention how fast they are and that they shoot poisonous spikes so they're not off guard if they think they're safe at a distance..." "No, all of that will just discourage them, so keep it quiet." "We could, like...tell them where their vulnerable spots are at least so they know where to aim..." "Nope, that'll just make them scared. Don't say a word." "Isn't...isn't the main reason Earth's armies initially did so poorly was because they knew nothing about the enemy...?" "Hush, hush...keep it all quiet. Don't want them getting jittery." "...They're all draftees, so don't they have to go whether they're scared or not?" "Shh..."

despite all the problems with this movie, id like to point out that everyone seems to get the time travel device put onto their left arm, yet the guy who jumps back has lost his left arm...

In the original script, the recruits weren't trained because they were intended to die and be eaten by the white spikes. They were supposed to be unknowingly poisoned before sending them into the future.

The plane that Dan's dad has is actually a C-130 Hercules. It's the cargo plane style that the infamous AC-130 was built from.

Roanoke: "Civilians received the most basic of trainings..." Me: "Training? TRAINING?! Was I the only one that heard Charlie say whoopsie while clearing his rifle?!"

" You never shoot a large caliber alien with a small caliber bullet" No wonder they are losing the war...

One major flaw of the movie is they didn’t kill the female while she’s restricted. Dan already suggested to kill her but Muri denied saying they’re out of time. But the funny part is, they still had lots of time and they can just unload a whole magazine to her neck and it’s done. It is also the female that found them afterwards. If they just killed her right then and there, the female wouldn’t have led the males to the helipad and they could’ve gotten away.

Dan felt like he was destined to be involved in something important and left his wife and child because the disappointment was eating at him. His daughter wanted to give him that chance, which was why he was one of the last to be drafted - Mari waited until the toxin was almost complete, put him in the Research Group, so that she could give him the toxin before sending him back. This was partially successful: what Dan realized was that the most important thing he'll ever be is a husband and father.

"Small-caliber weapons do virtually nothing to these aliens, so we equipped all our soldiers with pea-shooters. As a joke!"

When volcano kid was introduced I immediately knew he was important

You know armor piercing rounds can be made for a lot of force multipliers. Loading everyone with those would give them higher survival rate. Especially coming from the past where they have the resources to make them

The most fascinating thing about this movie was the aliens in the ship they found. In my headcanon, they're rivals to the Architects from Prometheus. I would love to see a movie where the white spikes fight xenomorphs. The xenomorphs could possibly become a hybrid species with them and humans would need help from the Predator race.

I’d be interesting to see a Predator hunting these aliens.

You know what I just realized. This damn movie feels like someone was building the script for a video game and amazon was just like “yeah we can make this a movie.

I think you put a lot more thought into this movie than anybody who was actually involved in making it did.

Chris Pratt’s dad in this movie kinda looks like he wants pictures of Spider-Man.
