How is it gonna get pitch black on a planet with 3 suns?

I think they're implying there's a 22 year cycle between darkness events or at least it was dark 22 years ago and that's what caused the geologists to die.

ConorFusbol's avatar

So, these things eat every 22 years?

paul's avatar

Yes. They are dormant. And it's also sci fi horror.

ziggywiggy's avatar

Yes.

But they really pig out.

They're all over to the left, you see...

movie magic crisis timing.

If they had crashed a year earlier, it would have been a less interesting film.

ziggywiggy's avatar

Good answer!

MRK's avatar

Other planets are going to align between them and the suns.

Hollysdower's avatar

I actually saw a cave recently where tons of bats fly out at night. Odd thing? Virtually no sound. It sounded like thousands of butterflies.

The Three Body Problem implies that orery solution - isn't. The orbits will be chaotic.

Anarchy Pony's avatar

On a long enough time frame, sure.

zuludaddy (seam & key)'s avatar

three-body problem only deals with a single planet with those three suns, I think

tehbaddr's avatar

Angular fuckers!

Hollysdower's avatar

It reminds me of The Expanse, well the books at least, where there were planets where other elements were dominant, so you had plants growing out of metal

Hirightnow's avatar

Where you least suspect?

Hollysdower's avatar

Locusts!

Hirightnow's avatar

Space Bats!

Hirightnow's avatar

Wasn't replying to the trivia, but I'll take the points...

𝐓𝐑𝐈𝐕𝐈𝐀:

The Hatchlings were animated differently, and their swarm behavior was based on what real animal?

ziggywiggy's avatar

Bats. Peter Chiang continues: "because they're small, they're frenetic and fast fliers -almost bat-like. We used the Maya particle system and proprietary code written by Stewart Sargaison to realize the flocking and flight patterns of the hatchlings."

Chino Cherokee's avatar

QANONs?

CzechJournalists's avatar

starlings

ziggywiggy's avatar

Even though IMDb says bats, i would have to agree with starlings also

CzechJournalists's avatar

can be murder on jet engines.

Hollysdower's avatar

locusts?

LOL the guy who made a hat out of a tied scarf

Honestly, more sci-fi movies need on-location shooting, especially in hostile environs.
