who were the three bodies
and what was their problem?
Three suns that take turns blasting the aliens
Two black men and one white girl.
>aliens are coming in 400 years
>more like not my body problem
Everything will continue to be terrible as long as it's written by minorities and women.
26 person writing teams lead by minority women + cultural diversity consultants are to blame
The three body problem is it’s hard to calculate things because there is a lot of variables, unfortunately you need to know the variables to calculate things in real life anyway
I thought it was about the aliens getting ganked by three suns taking turns in a gangbang. Have I been misinterpreting the whole show?
If you had 3 suns and a planet you would have a 4 body problem wouldn't you?
The 3 body problem is easily solvable. Your phone can do the calculations required. If you know the mass and trajectory of each object through observation you can then predict it step by step. The problem is that one of the bodies will either collide with one of the others or be ejected from the system entirely.
There are unnatural solutions to the problem that just wouldn't occur in the real world. There are hundreds of solutions to the 3 body problem.
>thinks a planet's gravity well could affect those of the suns
>moron thinks he can easily solve it
show us then
It's not that the variables are hard to find, it's that 3 (comparable in mass) orbital bodies create a much more unstable orbital path than 2 bodies orbiting each other, or one orbiting the other. Binary orbital systems are stable once they've formed, they maintain consistent distances from each other basically forever on our human time frame.
3 bodies (of comparable mass) orbiting each other are literally never maintaining equal distance between any of its bodies, until one crashes into another. They're constantly drawing each other in and then slingshotting each other around on all three axis, in entirely unstable orbits. Planets of these star systems would be getting endlessly yeeted by these chaotic gravity wells in the same way. You wouldn't be able to orbit something like that at a single distance forever. You would be at 1 AU one month, .2 AU the next, 15 AU the month after that.
As for calculations, that point is that it takes exponentially more time to calculate orbital trajectories in a three body system than it does in a two body system, assuming the same degree of certainty.
What piece of new media since COVID hasn’t been forgotten? What media has entered our daily vernacular and culture?
succession was a pretty big deal in upper class circles in manhattan and the hamptons but if you mean something for the peasantry probably young sheldon
severance
Normies have never heard of that
No long-term impact although it was a good show. Mostly was watched by yuppies
Come on. Squid Game
That's 1 I guess. Who knows how remembered it will be in the next decade
Already forgotten.
GoT was the last truly lasting cultural phenomenon. you know, until s08 landed and everyone promptly memoryholed it
Demon Slayer

Fallout and troony reindeer killed this
fallout is even more forgettable and cringe
whats troony reindeer, some hollyweird crap?
How close were they sticking to the books with this one? Witcher was pure fanfiction
The books were terrible, so hopefully they were loose with it.
the basic outline of the plot is there although some shit was made fricking stupid (blinking stars)
also they split a bunch of characters up into the 5 moronic friends. the characters in the original book are all cardboard cutouts but somehow they managed to do worse.
It’s not a good story. I read all the books. It goes completely off the rails in the final one and is just a springboard for his custom sci fi rpg setting. “Wouldn’t it be cool if”, dude just make a youtube video ranting about your 3d space flowing into 2d space visions. 600 fricking pages of nonsense and they’re standing at the end remembering they solved FTL travel as a whoops forgot to tell you about that. It’s like a Futurama gag but it’s not meant to be funny.
>from the creators of Game of Thrones
I'll pass.
Can I get a qrd on wtf this show is about?
Aliens find out about Earth because of a woman moment. They start to invade but it'll take hundreds of years to get here with their fleet, so they frick around with us by sending tiny waifu missiles that ruin our technology and turn people into schizos.
I never understand the onions phones or whatever they're called. The foldable super computers. If you can get a supercomputer there, why not just take over the plaent with those? Why not have them build robot factories or just zip around killing every single human by blasting through their skulls like a probe?
They're not supposed to affect anything physically. They can only affect perceptions, and their effectiveness gets divided over multiple tasks. So while a lot of people can be driven to suicide by blasting them with schizo delusions it wouldn't work on everyone. They also aren't supposed to be able to actually hack into shit either IIRC, but Netflix gonna Netflix and gave them the ability to crash planes and turn cars into death machines. The problem is then why do they only use the ability once for a single, quick shock scene? Because they were never supposed to be able to.
I guess I just have to swallow that "Physically" part as magic alien science despite the computers being on earth, a location in space, and seen by people. As if there is a physical universe and non physical. I'm sure the book's author comes up with an elaborate way of putting it into speculative science.
From what i recall it's because they have almost no mass, they're only a single proton, so there's no way they could do anything like clot your blood or blow up a computer
But yes the netflix series ruins this point
>just take over the planet with those
and do what? ship resources back to their unstable home world? dumb frick. they're just buying time
Jesus Christ you fricking idiot. Just read the fricking book. It's not even long, literally just read it then you will know what it's about.
Book > Tencent Series > Netflix Series
You ignorant Black person, I have a toddler and a pregnant wife, I have neither the time nor the brain to read books and won't for years. I also hardly have time to watch anything, hence asking for a synopsis. I only come to Cinemaphile when my kid is asleep or I'm taking a shit.
Yet you have time to shitpost on an anonymous Hungarian folk-dancing forum. Parenthood goals.
Every minute you read social media posts is a minute you could have read a book. Also, audiobooks are your friend. 3BP is not this high lit work.
I read a lot before my baby was born, but something happened to me once she was born where I just can't absorb any literature I read. It happens to a lot of new parents (it's the lack of sleep). I should be able to read books again in a few years time.
As for audiobooks, I will sometimes listen to some while working, but I still fail to absorb most of the story. Again, lack of sleep, but also distracted by work.
Yeah, this is real - and could even persist until the early teen years, when the kids become relatively self-sufficient in the evening and weekends as a part of their normal development. Getting older with work responsibilities increasing (use brain more) coupled with spending time with kids developing them (not a passive endeavor, if you want to make it meaningful) means that you don't have the time or concentration for appreciating literature as you used to. Cinemaphile is a nice brain-playground that doesn't take a lot of concentration and takes little time. Don't fool yourself - spending time with kids isn't mindless, and you need trivial distractions (Cinemaphile). You will be glad that you spent time with them instead of a book ... there is time for literature later, when they want to be independent and you have to let them go.
Thanks for the advice, anon. It's appreciated.
>it's the lack of sleep
I've read this but I've also read it's a sort of induced ADHD from having to switch tasks all the time and never getting a chance to concentrate long enough on something.
If that is so then concentration meditation can regrow that part of your brain.
>make contact with aliens
>aliens live on a shite planet and want ours
>ogga bugga we're arriving in 400 years get ready
>humans have to figure up a plan to stop an almost omniscient alien presence
they don't the humans lost big time
angery chink woman hates the world team up with bill gates kind of a person to invite random alien to obliterate the world
Marathon'd it, good show but kind of sad. Tear jerker on the paper boat tbh.
Race-swapped, gender-swapped girlboss trash
Most the characters in the book were chinks you moron, they added more white people
>netflix protagonist: a black dude and a latina
Are you sure you are not moronic?
Work on your reading comprehension, I said they added more white people, not that they replaced everyone with white people. (You'd know this if you weren't moronic)
Why would more white people matter if the protagonist is a black guy, moron?
I hate the spikkk broad.
When the cruise ship got -acked was kino.
It could’ve been a phenomenon if the episodes were released weekly and they didn’t immediately spoil the big twist. But they couldn’t even wait one episode before blowing their load.
Terrible adaptation.
Big twist?
N_gga, the aliens were obviously always bad.
I'm extremely doubtful this will get a second season.
Who warned the chink about "Do not answer, we will come?"
If the aliens wanted our planet from the get go, why not just show up 400 years in the future without us knowing about it? Is this going to have some asspull twist at the end "it was all just a test" bullshit?
It was a bleeding heart pacifist ayyy. One in a billion chance she got the one alien that doesn't want to frick us. The pacifist got a one in a billion chance of getting a crazy human b***h that hated her own species enough to doom it.
wasnt it said by the aliens that they're a hivemind and all interconnected when that old, cult dude was talking to them on the radio and they freaked out about the concept of lies?
The who was phone?
They're not a hivemind. They just aren't supposed to lie to each other and totally promise not to ever do that. You can probably see the flaws there. But they can also read the thoughts of fellow aliens by looking at the bright spot on the back of the knee.
Be warned.
He was a Trisolaran pacifist who wished death upon his species much like Ye, believing they would only cause misery and ruin. He id caught in book 1 and is punished by bring kept alive to see Earthlings all die in 400 years. He appears again at the end of book 2 to say he's happy how things turned out with the new mutually assured destruction pact
The thing about it is. Game of thrones looked right from both a camera quality, to the locations, to the sets, costumes etc. Three body problem looks like actual shit, it's a BBC tier show, so where the frick was that budget spent.
>so where the frick was that budget spent.
tax evasion
this is also on Amazon prime, what's the difference?
D&D just can't catch a break can they?
>D&D just can't catch a break can they?
Maybe they should try not being fricking hacks
D&D suck more dick than all the prostitutes in pattaya put together.
Are they the actual D&D that worked on this or is one of those cases of "the director's uncle that worked 5 minutes in GoT is now working on this"?
It's the actual D&D. A good part of the budget went towards getting them on board.
This show is mediocre at best. I liked the first two episodes but after that the show falls off pretty hard. In the first two episodes you have most of the intrigue and mystery left, and you also get the China parts which are very well produced/portrayed.
Things that bothered me:
*the mega overload of "minorities" inserted
*the overall dynamic of the scientists
*characters being victims without any build up. Like Auggs, they talk about her background but they don't show or tell anything specific.
*the cancer guys arc kinda drags. And he isn't very sympathetic until maybe the last episode
A bunch of other stuff
*why doesn't anyone beside Saul figure out the sky blinking was morse code? Surely some other smart people see it and figure out its a countdown?
*WHAT WAS THE POINT OF USING THE NANO TECH ON THE BOAT? They could've destroyed it anyways, and they still killed everyone. To save the hard drive? It was only luck (writing) that the nano threads didn't shread the hard drive as well
Honestly the books seems a lot more intriguing than this mess of a show.
>Honestly the books seems a lot more intriguing than this mess of a show.
It is.
The books are far superior to the show.
that was so funny, "using a tactical assault team could destroy the item"
>literally tear the entire boat to pieces
>*WHAT WAS THE POINT OF USING THE NANO TECH ON THE BOAT?
i believe in the books the point was indeed to save the hdd. the reasoning was that they could put it back together if it was sliced with the nanowire but if it got blown up or something they were fricked
I just realized I did watch season 1.
But completely forgot I did lol.
How the frick was it $20 mil per episode? Some of the CG in places were absolute dog shit.
I'm a racist and misogynist but I thought that the show had the most naturaly diverse cast I've ever seen, both the main group and the surrounding cast. The main group were friends because they studied under the same professor at a high level so it makes sense.
Neither was I bothered by Auggies whiny behavior, she tried to stick to her principles during a highly turbulent time, it also makes sense.
Looking forward to season 2 for sure.
Isn't it written by the Game of Thrones dumbasses?
Why would throwing money at episodes result in good quality?
It made me realise anyone CAN actually be western.
The group of friends are Black folk, bug chinks, spikkkz and they're all the same. Drug addicts, alcoholics and they're all 30+ without children.
Being a druggy, booze dependent, over the hill pos IS the epitome of western culture.
The last episode was so shit, Black person man is a dictator, kek. He has unlimited powers thanks to... Bill Cosby whom is UN secretary general XD
It was trash, the story makes no fricking sense or urgency when these aliens won't appear for several hundreds of years.
>Aliens attempt to sabotage scientific advancements made by humanity across the globe
>Plans to create an Alien cult fails
It would honestly be better if the show begins demonstrating how entrenched their influence is around the world. Throughout the show we're just seeing the aliens fail time and again.
Put this on and made it 22 minutes 22 seconds, to the scene where one scientist b***h corrects the other scientist b***h on the assumed gender of her doctor
I knew what to expect but jfc. Just wanted to watch some new kino with my waifu for once but it's irrevocably over. I'll never understand how fellow bigots power through the troony slop
Looks like the Chinese version is an option. She's watched anime's with me so I may go this route.
>filtered by realistic dialogue
So I skimmed the wikipedia article about this series. It seems the human scientist who is basically the villian that sent aliens to destroy earth wins/survives in the end, the aliens magically stop human technological advancement that could have gave them a fighting chance, and the aliens eventually destroy earth and everyone dies.
So basically, why would i watch this knowing the ending is so shit?
>the human scientist who is basically the villian that sent aliens to destroy earth wins
i didnt see them as a villain personally, i thought their story was the only interesting part in the whole series. humanity drove her to that point where she trusted the aliens to do a better job at handling their future.
which they mightve been since their planet isnt destroyed in the first place by anything they're responsible for, it's just a fluke of nature that they have to deal with and overcome.
the aliens only become a villain in the first place because of discovering humans are quite loathsome.
>Chinese writer creates story about Chinese woman who hates every human being she knows
Maybe the author should have spent less of his life surrounded by Chinese people.
it's not like we're any better to be fair, led by traitors who flood our countries with undesirables and all we can seem to muster is online seething because we dont want to lose our comforts.
It's not getting renewed
I am aggressively not watching any of that shit.
>girlboss + sci-fi
Netflix you stupid b***h.
cant forget what ive never heard of
WHO THE FRICK THOUGHT THAT CUTTING A TANKER INTO SHREADS WITH RAZOR WIRE WAS GOOD WRITING?
How did they get the videogame headsets to earth?
It's because the Tencent adaptation was already literally perfect
SLICING A CARGO SHIP INTO RIBBONS WITH A RAZOR WIRE FENCE IS SO FRICKING MIND BOGGLINGLY moronic AND WHAT MAKES IT WORSE IS THAT THE ORIGINAL AUTHOR THOUGHT IT WAS A GOOD IDEA! IT WASNT D&D BEING moronic, THE ACTUAL ORIGINAL AUTHOR WROTE THIS AND PEOPLE JUST KEEP WATCHING THIS FRICKING SHOW ANYWAY? WHAT THE FRICK!
