Watched The Tomorrow War. It's bad, basically sharknado without the self awareness.
My eyes might be going but the posters almost look like they’re trying to pass off Chris Pratt as Tom Cruise. For a few moments I thought it was a sequel to Edge of Tomorrow.
So, they can travel 30 years back in time, AND can take items back with them. WHY THE HELL would you not take your research back with you, and spend 30 ****ing YEARS researching it???? Instead, nah, let's just grab a bunch of 40+ year olds to let them die shooting at aliens. Why would you NOT use the working virus against the males? They are storming your final base? Gas them and you only have 1 queen to worry about now. And why not kill the queen with fire/grenade/ammo instead of just running away and letting her free when the males attack?? The virus was useless in the end anyways since all they had to do was blow up the ship... Also, my gun-nut brother in law pointed out they weren't even using armor piercing guns/rounds.... so much wrong with that movie, LOL

Yeah, but there's a difference between not making sense and being poorly written and poorly acted. Edge of Tomorrow was basically the better version of the same movie, no?

Apart from action and aliens I don't really see them as all that similar. In spite of the time travel elements I would compare it more to Starship Troopers.
However, both of the other films were the superior products.

I guess that's where i was going with the Sharknado comment, it's so bad it's almost a parody of Edge of Tomorrow, Starship Troopers, Alien, Cloverfield, War of the Worlds.... But unlike Sharknado they don't realize they are in a parody, so we are lacking some of the fun that can come from a parody film, and all we are left with is a bad film.
The problem with tomorrow war is it didn’t do anything interesting with the time loops.
The day after tomorrow had them progressing a little forward each loop which was cool. Looper has the classic actions of the pas create the loop to ensure what occurs in the future happens. Instead this was just bad starship troopers.

Really to enjoy the tomorrow war you have to ignore the time travel all together, its almost like they had a great idea but didn't want to get into the intricacies of the continuity of time travel so just said screw it.
I guess we'll finally resolve the question of how you pronounce Nynaeve.
