"Eh fuck it, this ain't gettin' nowhere. Send in the randoms." -The US military in 90% of movie situations.

Like how anytime there is a survival situation, NE always finds a way to bring up cannibalism

For anyone curious, the psychologist is much more important in the book and aids the group in crossing the border of the shimmer by putting them under hypnosis, and there’s an entire arc where the biologist inhaled fungus spores which makes her immune to the psychologists mind control, and she starts to notice some extreme corruption. And in the book, none of the characters have names, they’re just named off of their jobs. Excellent book trilogy, I love it!!

The Shimmer was a higher dimensional being trying to understand a lower dimensional world. This is why it could teleport. After copying the protagonist, i think it learned what she knew, and so it destroyed itself and the lighthouse after understanding that it had hurt people without intending to. It also healed her husbands clone for the same reason.

Bruh half the movie is just him roasting Ventress about being a phycologist.

Everyone watching this: Just in case

I kind of found Jossie's death one of the more peaceful ones there... She knew what was going to happen, she chose to leave willingly, and didn't look like she was in excruciating pain, as far as I can remember.

Am I the only one who considers the bear section with them tied up to be one of the most terrifying movie experiences ever? Like, you know its the bear even when you dont bc her voice is distorted and on top of that, theyre so helpless that its just crazy terrifying how the bear comes in and murders the crap out of the one girl.

Shark Crocodile hybrid: Chases and trys to kill everyone Psychologist: But how does that make you feel?

Y'know if this actually happens everybody is gonna freak out,then you know there's gonna be that one guy who says "Don't worry guys I've watched nerd explains."

19:53 quick minor correction: that’s actually an M240B. It packs a way heavier punch than the M249 and judging by the creatures within the shimmer, you’ll definitely need that extra punch
-
My favorite part about this movie is it captures the visuals of a mushroom trip almost perfectly. The shimmer, colors, patterns, the contrast between horizontal leaves and vertical moss and vines, everything so colorful and vivid. Really great

“You’ll either turn out as wall art, bear shit or have mutated so much, so fast that your self will cease to exist” Decisions decisions

"Were trapped in a room togeth-" Nerd explains: cannibalism

When dealing with something unknown, dangerous, supernatural and potentially world ending, I would ALLWAYS have a psychologist on the team. Nobody deals with things like these without an existential crisis
-
The screaming bear thing really left me unsettled. It was one sick mutation

“We don’t know what happened to him” PROCEEDS TO WALK IN WITHOUT ANY PROTECTION FROM POSSIBLE AIRBORNE PATHOGENS Edit: I haven’t seen this much stupidity since “Alien: Covenant” where they walked onto a previously undiscovered planet without any protection because “there’s oxygen”.

And that kids, is why the Foundation uses D-Class with a rope around the waist. Entirely expendable, yet oddly dependable. Edit: Lmao at how many times NE roasts the doctor

If everyone failed to come back out while tryingto investigate, after one or two teams wouldn't you change tactic and see if someone can come back at all? For example heres a full hazzmed suit and a harness with attached lanyard walk in and come right back! If possible then try to get a sample in the immediate area and come back right away. Keep increasing time and studying the people as they come back untill you build up a picture of what is going on.
