  • Thanks! So I’ll say if we’re doing evil advanced aliens we better see what you bring to the table with interesting alien technology! And I don’t think they disappointed

    !the different ways the tractor beam was used was awesome, felt like I was in Destroy All Humans lol. Both against her (the battle pot getting bent in half against the way, holding her in place as the alien shows off it’s tentacle ball) and in her favor (snapping the possessing guys back, bruh). I was a little confused by the parasites purpose, I get controlling the humans but we see it crawl out of the first alien too, I guess that implies they’re being controlled too but there’s no real direction I see that thread went unless it’s just supposed to be a hidden extra scifi bodyhorror detail. I really didn’t mind the no talking thing either, I get it has some small hitches but it makes sense given most of the story is her alone, makes her feel alien to the world + she doesn’t have to talk to herself during the attacks I thought they blended the practical effects well, and they aliens look solid for being cgi. I’m sure there’s plenty little green men movies out there but this is is the first I’ve seen donit in a mostly “grounded” way, has some war of the worldsiness but makes the most of its compact movie areas!<













  • Same, relays fine but sync was my main app they ceased their reddit app in june. Just realized they had a spiritual successor for Lemmy up and running so I’m giving it a try now. All the server stuff got me feeling like a boomer but the app actually feels like I remember sync for reddit feeling so I’m hoping I can get into the swing of things without too much trouble!
