[@LibraGamesUnlimited]

That seems to a common issue in a lot of modern movies. Hollywood has created such a narrow idea of young and attractive that the young attractive actors (especially men) have a tendency to look about the same and are hard to tell a part unless you make sure all the ones you put in your movie had different hair colors you make sure to dress them so they stand out from one another.

[@Mngalahad]

+SouthernSamurai no, its not about the hot guys, its about the akward sexual tension around the protagonist and the rest of the cast. have you ever seen those ridiculous dating simulators? where the protagonist find themselves meeting lots of women in common situations that get sexual/ pervy later on? like, they bump into one another and the girl falls backward showing their panties? thats what this is: a dating simulator made into a movie. in those sims the protagonist has lots of women who like them. in twilight, shovel face and beef cake measure their dicks in front of mouth breather almost the entire movie, for example. here, she has to kiss a dude for going to the bathroom and shit. how ridiculous is that?

[@TheRealJillSandwich]

Sounds like a shitty romance manga. If only Stefanie Meyier was japanese, we would be spared from her "writting" since it would never get popular enough here.

[@shikiaura]

A SciFi movie that isn't for people who like SciFi is... probably just going to be garbage no matter what. Imagine a horror movie for people who don't want to be scared, or a comedy for people who don't want to laugh. How did that woman think that anything decent would come of that?

[@niallreid7664]

Shiki Aura Well to be fair, Game of Thrones is often described as "fantasy for people who hate fantasy." And that is definitely a quality product. So it could be done. I dunno.

[@owenlindkvist5355]

There is a slight problem with that conjecture; it is fantasy for people whom like fantasy, written by a person whom also happens to like fantasy. Whomever happened described Game of thrones as "Fantasy for people WHOM hate fantasy" is doltish at best.

[@TheAsyouwysh]

The difference is that GoT works as fantasy, but also has other elements, while The host doesn't work as sci fi

Oh good, rape romance. My most favourite kind of love story. ō-ō Did nobody listen to the internal dialogue of Melanie during filming and go "Hey this kinda sounds like she's being sexually assaulted because she doesn't have control of her body."? Like, isn't it supposed to be romantic? What?

[@hinasakukimi]

GirlBrony (Cringelord) yeah it's like she toyed with a sort of interesting idea (completely losing your bodily autonomy and competing with an alien host for consciousness, i'm sure it's been done before but it's still an idea with potential) and completely skipped over the internal struggle that would happen. it'd be scary as shit to still have consciousness but not be able to control your own actions, maybe in another book/movie the alien host choosing to kiss someone against the host's will would be creepy, invasive and engaging to read but nope. it's... romantic? stephanie meyer's really good at romanticising creepy shit.

[@PointsofData]

***** js but it has been done, for the same demographic but so much better. Animorphs. Its a science fiction series of books about a group of kids saving Earth from parasitic body snatchers called Yeerks. I think its the 5th book in the series where the leader of the group actually gets a Yeerk in his head, and throughout the series its hammered home how terrifying it is to be a "host". Plus Applegate (a female author I might add) made several expansion books outside of the main series, my favorite ones being the Andalite/Ellimist/Hork Bajir chronicles that follow protagonist aliens mentioned in the main series. Its a really solid read, though can get very depressing, very fast; especially towards the end. Oof.

[@Yoseqlo1]

Yeah. I think every time Meyer thinks about how what she is writing could be interpreted as a questionable fetish fantasy, the alien soul inside her shuts her up.

[@SM-qe4wd]

Hey Adam I'm not criticizing you or anything but just fyi, Glock 17's and stuff have 17 bullet mag's so that technically is possible that the gun fired 17 times without a reload. But yes, movie guns do have unlimited ammo usually, I get the point and it was really funny anyway!

[@Bigbang5766-w8x]

[@MrCerialKiller]

That's an extended mag which hangs out the bottom like 5" You can clearly see it's a normal 10 round mag (possible he cocked the pistol forcing 1 round into the chamber then put another full mag on making 11 rounds)

[@JakeTakesTheCakes]

I love how people act like actors treat screen/stage kissing as real passionate love type kissing. It's not. There's no affection involved. After one or two times it just becomes a chore and you're more focused on staying in character than actually being a good kisser. You can totally tell how annoyed the actors are when they get asked that question too.

[@PunishedFelix]

You know, Stephanie Meyer could have explained the alien souls thing in a logical way, through parasite evolution. It could be argued that the soul alien creatures evolved on their planet first to have a symbiotic outside relationship with a native species on the planet, and as they evolved, they became more and more attached, until they started living inside of them. Because of further evolution that makes these creatures increasingly more intelligent, instead of having a natural parasite cycle like what is seen on Earth (usually an animal accidentally eats the remains or feces of another infected animal, sometimes even of another species), they eventually manage to evolve their own parasite cycle through the actions they use through the host bodies. As they become more and more adapted to this, they can no longer implant themselves through a natural cycle, requiring the use of surgery to spread. As the group of aliens that travel from planet to planet through body to body, their practice becomes more generalized and they are able to infect more hosts, therefore increase their survivability - while those that stay at home evolve in their host species and eventually may form a symbiotic relationship within them, similar to bacteria cultures in our digestive tract. I think it's way too much to ask for though for someone like Meyer to have any knowledge of biological principles like this though. I'm thinking way too much about this. Maybe I should just rewrite the twilight series so that it doesn't suck.

[@mastermarkus5307]

crazybuizel Yes. How does it feel thinking more about Meyer's writing than Meyer herself?

[@PunishedFelix]

Awkward. Also I'm pretty sure I was blazed when I wrote that. Which makes me feel even more awkward.

[@gilliganinja]

Stephanie Meyer writes lore that could be really awesome if expanded upon, but chooses to focus her stories on the blandest, shittiest characters she can come up with

[@blackknightjack3850]

For me it's not so much the lore but the premise. The premise is really good and could lead into a question of whether or not morality is more important than freedom. The problem is that Stephanie Meyer is the sort of person who watches Terrible Writing Advice and takes it seriously not understanding that its very heavy handed sarcasm.

[@Itried20takennames]

The characters are bland on purpose...so every tween/ya can project themselves onto the totally ordinary but likewise incredibly special, loved and admired placeholder.

[@TXFDA]

"It's murder. We were only trying to enslave your entire population." That is the main thing that pisses me off about the movie. Like, the aliens act like they doing nothing wrong by essentially killing every human and using the bodies as puppets. But this alien's all"IM HELPING wtf is your problem" not considering that maybe the human girl doesn't want it stealing her body. AND they kill a few aliens and she gets all bent outa shape like what it's doing to the girl is much better. You can't act the aliens are all smart and shit, but make the one controlling the girl so fucking stupid. Then again, it's written by the maker of Twilight. I don't know why I expected more.

[@yourlocalbicronoverlord]

I mean if the species disassociated enough I could buy them believing their own propaganda about bringing peace by destroying the host’s consciousness. They do act against how they are supposed to in the movie but more in a movie villain way and not an intentionally written way. Although, if they did want to make the aliens self righteousness more believable, they could have had it that the host’s consciousness isn’t actually destroyed but rather put into a fake perfect reality for that host while the parasite take control. Hell, that could even go onto explain why what’s-her-face could have survived the host implantation, but that would be too easy.

[@danielshore1457]

They could of even described it using basic science emotions are chemical reactions in the brain they are a parisitic creature so therfore they don't actually have any emotions because of them not having an original body to have experienced those chemical reactions making them emotionless and unempathetic meaning that they think they are doing good by preventing killing and such by taking control of the bodies but not having any empathy about it and not realising that they are the bad guys.

Yeah, how did a race of pacifist aliens take over the Earth where we have militaries, small armies, gangs, militants, crazy evil internet nerds and Texans? Battlefield: Earth is more credible than this. At least there was evidence of a struggle.

Naw I think if uncle jeb had that dream it would make the movie 1000% better

[@Taylor_Lindise]

Wow she never fucking read science fiction books. Douglass Adams has a lot of 'math' in his books I'll give Meyer that... But about 70% of it is BS for the sake of being BS. Issac Asimov doesn't do much in the way of math or explaining the science, he mostly focused on the psychological and the societal implications on what said science would mean for us... Orson Scott Card does much the same that Asimov does... In fact most Sci-Fi writers put all the 'math' and the 'science' on the wayside for more of a political or social commentary on said creations. The author of The Martian did have a lot of facts in his story, and there are many more examples of how I'm incorrect. But I'm just pointing out how Meyer has obviously judged all the books by a single phrase. Which is also not even deemed different than 'fantasy' in most libraries. Because the two are interchangeable to libraries an even in some books themself.

Shit, H.P. Lovecraft even wrote a bunch of short stories for a science fiction magazine, and none of the ones I have read had any math going on, and had more historical mumbo jumbo than science mumbo jumbo.

11:45 it's finally happened, people... a scene so fucking awkward and contrived that adam literally has to go on camera during one of his reviews to accurately convey his reaction to it XD

[@Magikalic]

It's because Meyer is a very suppressed, bitter woman who wants to have her self-insert (Stephanie Meyer - Melanie Styder I mean come on) loved and adored by everyone because she wasn't popular in high school but in a way that didn't make her look bad, hence all of the creepy forced kisses and otherwise sexual harassment disguised as being romantic in all of her work. The exact same thing happened in the Twilight series.

[@akumaten]

Stephanie Meyer - Melanie Styder o_0 The similar initials, the similar last names..... I-I'm gonna be sick!!!

[@cleomagoolando]

Before he was working with Escapist, the movie reviewer Moviebob read the entire Twilight series and summed it up as 'Mormon abstinence porn' (to be sure, at least the endless portion that happens before the characters fuck and Edward bites her umbilical cord with his teeth...I could be remembering that wrong...haven't read it myself). Whatever the case may be, Meyer's a weird creep and one of the most perfect 'successful writers' for the ultra-repressed and increasingly-psychologically-unaware culture of the declining United States. It's ironic that she wrote this book about aliens, because her work seems by and for people who increasingly act like they're another species from a faraway planet.

[@ProfessionalSpectre]

Seeing shit like this makes me feel so much better about my own writing.

[@TheNdoki]

So... the whole movie is based around the author's secret desire to be a space hussie?

[@buddynich3496]

17 rounds in a glock... holy shit.. they got it perfectly correct!!!! (assuming glock 17 (in 9mm))

[@DeadtomGC]

Knowing that stuff is just a perk of being an all 'Merican patriot.

[@Bigbang5766-w8x]

You would also have to assume that they loaded an extra bullet into the chamber, because you can see that when she lowers the gun, it isn't empty. (Slide isn't locked back) So if Adam missed a single shot in there, then it may be wrong

[@DeadtomGC]

Bigbang5766 True... good point.. but... it could just be a broken gun... :D

[@raptor15sc]

Bigbang5766 "Although other magazines from the Glock 17 will function, with available capacities of 10, 17, or 19 rounds."

[@DeadtomGC]

Username0123456789 no, actually the 10 will not work on a glock 17. Also, there is a 32 round magazine as well. (and a 100 round beta mag) but all of those would stick out of the bottom (except the 17), so they were clearly not being used.

The fact that Meyer actually tried to explain a lot of things but the director is the one who just ignored all of the questions entirely is kinda mindblowing.

[@Shadowkirby14]

Stephanie Meyers: "The Host is a science fiction story that's for people who don't like science fiction." YMS: "Death Note is an anime made for people that aren't into anime." Coincidence much?

[@fightingmedialounge519]

Neither of those statements make a lot of sense( especially since deahr note is smothered in anime trash).

[@thevioletbee5879]

As an anime geek, I love the hell out of Death Note. It simultaneously manages to have a certain level of narrative merit while also being incredibly enjoyable and downright hilarious on an ironic level. Alongside some batshit directing and a hilarious dub. It's a masterpiece. And a gateway drug for when I'm lonely and want someone else to join my cult.

[@fightingmedialounge519]

What? From the overreactions , to the extended inner monologues, and even the character quirks; death note has anime tropes scattered throughout.

[@talkinghoorse6936]

GENIUS!!!!!!!!!!!

[@Maverickslayer744]

Liam Ratcliffe Of the utmost caliber. Seriously though, this pisses me off how she just generalized science-fiction as just about the mathematics and "spaceships." That's a pretty snide and uninsightful way of describing both the genre and the fans themselves, as if that's all that matters to it. Oooh, no, there's no social commentary, deep character development or even a sense of spirituality in ALL of sci-fi media. It's all about the space ship stuff. Yes, my jimmies are rustled.

[@talkinghoorse6936]

Maverickslayer744 there is no need to be upset........

[@Maverickslayer744]

Liam Ratcliffe Yeah, I'm possibly overreacting, but you have to admit that was a bit of a snide way of describing the genre.

[@firstecho8741]

I actually really like how they talk about the harmonious, peaceful world, since it's from the point of view of the aliens. Like a propaganda machine. It also shows just how much chaos humans cause, if just one alien is swayed from the 'good' path.

I'm not 100% sure but can't handguns have up to 18/21 rounds? In that case, shooting 17 times isn't weird.

[@G-Mastah-Fash]

I think they actually didn't surpass the Glocks ammo capcity in this scene. I think the glock 17 can hold 18 rounds if one is in the chamber.

[@bazan2947]

TheBuilderize Exactly. They shot 17 shots.. So it's totally cool and nothing needed to be pointed out about it :P

[@bazan2947]

Sam Lafrance Lol I know, but that much he should've known. But I'm not judging :P

[@retroreactiveable]

BazanGaming "But that much he should've known"? How much gun trivia should the average person know? I don't know any person who would've been able to look at that gun and tell me how many rounds it can fire.

[@PrincessSabbath415]

I'm pretty sure there was a series of books about a race of parasitic aliens that was trying to take over Earth (and the galaxy). The main characters were children who could shape-shift. One book actually had one of the kids get infected, and he describes the horror of being conscious, but unable to do or say anything as the parasite controlled his body, read his mind, and went after his friends. It was called Animorphs. My point is that a children's book series did what Stephanie Meyer couldn't.

Probably two reasons. Stephanie Meyers and hot guys/girls in the advertising. Pretty solid reasoning I guess.

[@monstergenome7566]

Joshua Rosario alright that's one use of math to solve what boils down to a logic puzzle in a fairly popular science fiction TV show, and it was created by a man with a PhD in applied mathematics, so it's likely at least mostly real math. Now name another, not in Futurama.

[@codysseus312]

+Monster Genome How does Legitimate science Not equal math, the two go hand in hand. unless you stating the obvious which you really don't need to do. Do you want a list of every science fiction show or movie which uses "legitimate" science compiled and handed to you only for you to say, "OK now give me another example." Your question was "When has there ever been a successful science fiction series that used actual math to explain itself?" we answered Futurama. You agreed, that's it.
