A fun example but with no movie is the Thirst Water from 40K. It was believed to be an ancient bio weapon that actively seeks out prey. It looks like liquid water but it desiccates anything it touches, cracking bone and shriveling people up within seconds. Going into the biology and possible evolution of something like that would be cool. The planet it originates on is a desert one so people suffering from dehydration are more likely to fall for it but it like swirls unnaturally and actively drains itself away once “full.” It ate a victim then slurped itself back into a rock crevice, meaning it was alive.

I think you would really like looking into the Scramblers from Blindsight. One of the central themes is “intelligence vs consciousness” and whether of not consciousness is a evolutionary advancement or a fluke. When humanity finds the spacefaring Scramblers, we realize they aren’t conscious, but are still way more intelligent than us.

[@chameleonx9253]

I don't know. It seems like consciousness at least in the sense of sentience is pretty much required for intelligence. I don't see how a creature could behave in any way we would describe as "intelligent" without the ability to interpret and respond to the environment. The only thing that could come close is some kind of organic machine that has extremely complex programming that could anticipate and respond to any perceived stimulus without actually having any internal deliberation or consideration. But then, it's debatable if you would call that "intelligence" if it's just reacting purely on instinct, and just happens to have better instincts than we do.

Geologist and paleontologist here (and fellow Deep Southerner!) here. To expand on the magnetic shield bit of the video, the internals of Earth have an inner and outer core. Along with the high iron content, the inner and outer core spin counter to each other which helps create a super strong - relative to Mars - magnetosphere. It is likely that either Mars did not have this internal engine in the way that we have here on this planet or the core cools at a rate that is higher than Earth's. Planetary process are incredibly cool and complicated and rocks are neat!

[@Skylancer727]

While people say Venus or Mars would have been "habitable" they mean in that there would have been water and survivable temperature. The air still likely wasn't breathable as Venus likely still had 40 atmospheric pressures and Mars likely was always more trace, just not as bad as today. In fact Venus likely was even higher pressure in the past as the atmosphere is slowly being blasted into space.

[@retsaMinnavoiG]

While I generally agree with speculation that we can't be sure what kind of environment life can develop in, I imagine liquid water and moderate temperatures (maybe -30C to +50C is reasonable) are essential requirements for complex life to form. I would rank them as more important than air pressure personally - that's not to say air pressure is irrelevant I just think the ranges of air pressure that allow life is potentially much greater than those two factors. My thoughts are that we have birds that fly incredibly high and fish that live incredibly deep with extremes in pressure. There's nothing to say that super high air pressure or low couldn't be adapted to easily depending on that planets evolutionary tree.

"Our brain constitute around 2% of our body mass, on average it will consume around 20% of the oxygen of the body, wich is pretty wild but necessary for how important the brain is according to the brain" got me dead

[@xero2715]

Working in the engineering field, I feel your pain with the acronyms. I've been at my current company for a year, and there are still acronyms that I don't know yet.

[@Beepers559]

The beginning of this movie reminds me of the Martian, except with the difference of there being an infection plot

[@corwinberry]

Just having a scientist go through the shit you do just to explain how fictional stuff can happen? Hella good dude. Really it's a service to us nerds who want more.

[@Dexctre2]

you should do an episode on prometheus or alien covenant

[@roehanostornsyn3367]

Just wanted to say, man, that I love this channel. Gives me great joy. Good content, informative, entertaining, relatable. The WoW shoutouts give me live lol

[@KareemHarper]

Love this movie. Really underrated. Also... Kim was only one of those people with a shred of sense.

[@interferret901]

Always love seeing a Roanoke upload, never tend to be on time but seeing one still excites me

[@kai_plays_khomus]

The masses of antibiotics used in industrial meat production are a serious issue when it comes to resistent bacterial strains. They are administering broadband antibiotics to the lifestock constantly because otherwise they wouldn't be able to keep the meat alive under industrial conditions. People don't understand how high the chance of soon dying of tooth ache like 150 years ago because we had been inconsiderade with antibiotics actually is.

[@TheWatcherCinematics]

I think I liked it more when you gave a summery of set movie/story and then after that you went into the science of the movie/story. Mainly because then I understand the movie/story which will help with the understanding of the science behind it, so that it is not mixed.

[@theshermantanker7043]

Millionth time asking Roanoke to cover the undead and infected from _I am a Hero_ ;-;

[@dead910p]

Oooo! Roanoke, for the next video you can break down the schematics on Joker’s laughing gas or Bane’s venom serum! Or both, since the two compounds were fused together from the first Batman game! (Arnold voice) DO IT NOUW!!

[@SulphurFoxx]

I think we need another video to analyze if Kim could be the chosen one to dethrone the infamous Amy

[@mikejamison4717]

So I'd like to say that being able to listen to your videos when I am having bad episodes of insomnia honestly helps me keep my sanity. Danke

[@marysmith2060]

Ahh, your videos are pure gold. I too have dealt with some sinus issues lately. One week in the spring and fall. It's super fun. What's the name of this movie? I wish you well in your pursuit of your Masters degree.

[@RoanokeGaming]

Thanks brother! It's "the last day on mars"

[@James_Randal]

​@@damon3082he would've died because of his infection.

[@Nervadane]

Boy i can't wait to get to Mars and with my luck be the first one that wanders too close to the ancient alien organ reversal virus

[@Amarenamann]

Roanoke should make a big rant video about TLOU2, I'd listen to it on repeat even if it was 10 hours long... the longer the better. I know that it's been years since that game came out and people stopped paying attention to it but it still deserves to be criticised for how dissapointing, sometimes malicious, it was.

[@hajadrahkeed3346]

Oh man I’m ngl your channel has become my favorite channel to just have going in the background lately

[@Mr_Spooner]

You probably were a total Chad, popular in the lab. But it is absolutely possible to be too social also. Some of us just want to know that our coworkers are going to be focused and diligent, we can chit chat between things that we are working on, without being overly distracting. One of my best working pals would say hello in the morning, talk for a couple minutes, then wait till breaks or lunch to be more chatty. “Hello, good to see you today! Need any help today?” Maybe a little “how was your afternoon yesterday?” And that was enough a lot of times

[@RoanokeGaming]

Impossible! Be friendly with me 😂

[@noobaf3299]

I love when Sarcastic Roanoke appears on videos ❤

[@theon2769]

You should do a video on the husk infection from "Barotrauma" next! 🎉

[@grimreaper2301]

Awesome video dude! I hope the next one is for the tardigrade monster from harbinger down!

[@bsod4144]

God Roanoke you have become so cynical and realist without holding back that i love it...funny how when social principles ignored science blooms..maybe the answer all along wa....nwm..good job and have fun, I as for one welcome our roanoke overlords...this relaxed you is so much more natural just dont do the youtuber special and dwell on it

[@bsod4144]

also omg the andy wrestler skit..oh god..no homo :3

[@thepinklacecoffin3153]

I watched this movie a while ago, having not read the description and thinking it was that movie about Mars having a giant face and the MC discovering Martians became humans through spilled skittles or something. Realizing it was, in fact, not that was an absolutely sublime jumpscare. Of disappointment mostly, lol. 5/10, more skittle shenanigans please.

[@Longshot441]

Not to mention adding antibiotics into food for chickens. Thus making them bigger for meat but also creating strains of antibiotic resistant salmanella.

[@buffbarneystan3280]

This is the only way I "watch" movies now. Give me knowledge, oh great Roanoke

[@Amarenamann]

Roanoke is as always coming at us with some based takes on TLOU2. Amen to that.

[@HaYlEeXx19]

I’m glad your here on KZbin. I have learned so much!

[@lxcifer1496]

day 6 of trying to get Roanoke to cover Tyranids from warhammer, itd be great and i will not stop until i get it, keep up the great videos!

[@Splincir]

Earned a sub with this video. Despite being highly scientific your take on the origins of life is based. "its really up to what you believe at this point" Is as real as it gets. We just don't "know" and we cant right now with science prove any of it. So you either believe in creation via a higher power (God etc.) or via some theory of everything or chaos etc. It's so tiring to have people in the field of science to matter of factly "know" the origins of life and the universe, when the reality is they don't. I respect any scientist who openly admits that we just don't know what we don't know right now. That level of intellectual honesty is lacking and sorely needed and is worthy of respect. So hats off to you good sir. Keep up your studies and keep grinding on you tube. Your movie analyses are a fun and different take than what we normally get from movie reviews.

[@jonlollypops4279]

Would love to see a breakdown of the biological disaster in the show Freakish

[@NatureXwars]

I cannot look past the trivia of the main lights going dark (with disorientating flashing yellow & red lights left), when the emergency button is pressed, as any sort of practical environment for emergencies...

[@Araakol]

keep up the good work👍

[@meredithgrubb4497]

As always, thanku so much!!!!! I love all ur analogies. Being able to break this down to where i can understand it makes u a genius to me.

[@desolation2438]

Hey Roanoke, you should look at the adaptation and retention of humanity in the evolved humans in dead island 2. I think it is fascinating how they reap all the benefits with absolute minimum drawbacks.

[@nivannakingsman1383]

OH MY GOD YES. THE 5:10 MARK. It's the same in tech. I'm going through a massive course and one of the biggest hurdles is acronyms that don't line up or just make less sense than saying the whole word. THE DAMN LESSONS USE ACRONYMS I THEN HAVE TO LOOK UP TO UNDERSTAND! I'm so happy I'm not alone in my plight against acronyms vs just saying the goddamn word.
