The film is based on a sci-fi theme and tells the characters and stories of many characters. In the appearance that looks colorful and mysterious, and the dark atmosphere of Cthulhu hidden under the appearance, it is obscure and difficult. In fact, after seeing his sci-fi setting, you will find that the story is very simple, and then when you watch it again, you can better see the plot by paying attention to the changes in the characters.
To put it simply: In essence, the entire X area is a cell, the bubble is the cell membrane, and the lighthouse is the nucleus. This cell will continue to grow and engulf the surrounding components. The simple components around are like short chains such as amino acids; the animals and plants inside are like RNA, plants are like ribose rRNA responsible for producing active substances, and animals are like transport tRNA responsible for energy transfer inside the cell. Cells continue to break down their own components and reorganize, and RNA mixes during the reorganization process, so there are human vines, all kinds of reorganized things that look strange to us. The expedition team is like a virus entering from the outside, which is a piece of RNA that will "self-defense". Bears and crocodiles are the internal defense mechanism of the cell. If the team member is killed, the RNA represented by the team member can only participate in the internal operation of the cell. The renewal process cannot participate in the "second stage", which is the genetic process.
That is to say, all the weirdness is that the substances in the cell have been reorganized and updated, so what about the nucleus as a lighthouse? There is DNA in the nucleus, which is the core that determines the genetics of the cell, and consists of two RNAs. Therefore, in the end, the female psychologist was decomposed to form a pair with the female lead. If the pairing was successful, the large cell would split into two as planned, but the pairing failed, and finally the nucleus was burned, which can be considered as a DNA disorder. lead to demise. This is the genetic and cell division activities that people (RNA) who live to the lighthouse into the nucleus can participate in. When the male protagonist brings the first wave of people in, it may be two people like the female protagonist. One person is decomposed and copied as the male protagonist. He even developed a mature mind after living with the male protagonist for a period of time. Master suicide is also a pairing failure. The reason why the duplicator does not let the heroine leave the lighthouse is because the matching has not been completed. If the heroine and the duplicator successfully complete the matching (the imagination of this matching process is a bit indescribable?), the bubble will split into two, The heroine + replica is the new nucleus.
There are a few interesting things in this process. First, the girls have never eaten, and the bears are only killed but not eaten. They are directly powered by the cells; the crystal trees around the nucleus come from the carbon dioxide in the beach. Silicon; the cell membrane is fluid; it is mentioned in the sheet that if the cells can continue to regenerate perfectly, people can be immortal, and have a pattern of ouroboros.
So is the final heroine a clone or a real body? In fact, it doesn't matter if you suspect that the heroine is lying. No matter which one goes out, the final result is different from the one that went in, at least it is the result of being renewed by cells. The final outcome is that the original cell dies, and the two RNAs thrown out are together, so it is very likely that they will become a new bubble. So the form of the aliens is actually not important, because the form of the aliens seen may also be called parasitism by bubbles or reorganization.
The sci-fi setting of the whole film is very interesting. The characters in it have both conflict and character. In the face of unknown crises, there are those who are cowardly and want to escape desperately; those who avoid problems like ostriches; those who are fiercely confronted; some who worship the unknown; and those who collapse at the last moment and cannot face themselves; only those who are firm in their hearts can fight in the end.
