    /* ---- VIDEO INFORMATION ---- */
    Welcome to the Heavy Spoilers show, I'm your host Paul and this video we're breaking down 3 Body Problem.
    -
    The new Netflix show presents a threat for humanity that at this point is the biggest threat it's ever faced. But there's very little that we actually know about them and in this video that's what I wanna discuss.
    This will go over what they really look like and also what happens in the war. I will save that until the end of the video though and give you a heads up before we get into it.
    Obviously Heavy Spoilers ahead and this will cover things from the book that haven't happened in the series yet. So if you don't wanna know then be away you bugs and if you're joining me then use your brain to hit the thumbs up. With that out the way, thank you for clicking this now let's get into 3 Body Problem.
    -
    Ok so the San-ti go by a different name in the book where they're known as the Tri-solarans.
    Solar of course means sun and Tri means 3 which ties into the universe they come from. Still though we learn very little about them and don't even really know what they look like.

      I feel the need to point out "Trisolarans" is pretty much a simple translation of "San-Ti."
      And I don't see why the San-Ti would feel bad about their size. They are a highly advanced technological species, and their size has allowed them to survive. Sounds like projecting human attitudes onto someone else.
      I don't think The Dark Forest makes much sense. Among other things it presumes no friendly contact between different civilizations EVER, that everyone sooner or later begins thinking in terms of resources which will take billions of years to use up to the degree they fear homicidal terror at "losing" this race for resources, that entire civilizations (pretty much all of them) will act with total uniformity and without effective active dissent vis-a-vis genocide forever, that all civilizations in fact demand growth at all costs (there have been human civilizations that absolutely rejected this, and I mean long-lasting major ones), etc.

    1. They need to "rehydrate" to be awaken from a dormant state
    2. They have a hive mind "if one survives, we all survive..." which also explains why every new cycle, they start out more advanced than their previous cycle.
    3. Bugs have been a theme this entire first season
    Conclusion:
    The aliens look like actual BUGS, only highly evolved 'bugs' who have similar features as the bugs on earth.
    And because of the hive mind, if only one alien survives, they all survive in that actual sense because they are one hive mind.
    What annoyed me a bit, was when Evans was reading a fairy tale and other stories to the aliens, as if he's been doing this all along and only "now" they started to ask questions?
    Didn't the "Sophons" (their spies) not see that humanity lies constantly and shouldn't been a surprise for them when Evans revealed humans could lie...? With every confict going on on the planet and so much more...?
    The "hive mind" shoudn't be like human civilizations, but it should have been a "culture shock" once their Sophons arrived on earth, but instead they already knew "how" humanity was, but not yet knew they deceived eachother? Hard to believe...

    • @antonycharnock2993

      @requiemlul3140 Před 2 měsíci +22

      They aren’t actually a Hive Mind. They just communicate via showing their thoughts as light.
      They also can’t read thoughts, wich is why they jsut assumed that when a human says one thing and does another, they just changed their mind. Not to mention the Sophons aren’t actually omnipresent. They jsut swoosh around between important sites, they aren’t listening on in normal people constantly.

    • @putty-e2872
      @putty-e2872 Před 2 měsíci +14

      The 3-Body TV series likely accelerated the pace and condensed the plot, making it seem as though Sophon had been on Earth for an extended period, rather than just arriving a month prior to the scientists' deaths. Moreover, the series introduces a plot hole by portraying Sophon as an overpowering AI without realistic constraints, leaving viewers wondering why it doesn't just solve problems directly.

    • @breadboi8747
      @breadboi8747 Před měsícem

      Also, the fact that the sophons were sabotaging our scientific results long before they found out they couldn’t trust us was also confusing. Maybe I missed something but did the old man/alien sympathizers know they were sabotaging science? If not, that would be the aliens deceiving us which supposedly they’re afraid of

I also wondered if they had technology so crazy that they could program a particle, why can’t they just regulate their planets temperature and even gravity.

    I believe at one point in the main books they are described as having glass-like see through bodies that are moldable and allow you to literally see their thoughts.

    Perhaps the idea for the Trisolarans was modelled on the G'Gugvuntts and Vl'hurgs from Douglas Adams' Hitchhikers Guide To The Galaxy (pub 1979). "Due to a terrible miscalculation of scale the entire (G'Gugvuntts and Vl'hurgs) battle fleet was swallowed by a small dog.". 😄

    Nice to see that you've been watching videos from "Quinn's Ideas." So have I. I actually didn't discover his channel until sometime during my watch of the Netflix show. Basically, during my watch of the show, I found out that it is based on a book series.
    Went looking for videos on the book series and found "Quinn's Ideas". Saw all the videos he had available on this book series, among others. After finishing the Netflix adaptation, I started watching Quinn's videos about the books. By now, I believe I have watched them all, including his 4.5-hour monster of a compilation video.
    Incidentally, via Quinn, I found out about the Chinese adaptation called "Three Body". This adaptation is 30 episodes and only consists of the first book in the series. I have been watching it via Amazon Prime, and I am currently on episode 22.
    Between the Netflix adaptation and the Chinese adaptation by Tencent, I really am wanting the entire book series to show up in live-action, including the book not written by the original author of the series.

      What hints? If we want to talk about what Liu Cixin intended, then we must discard 4th book. Then I would say if Trisolarans were that small, their ship sizes would not make sense. Also Yun Tianming having all that room to live (and farm) with them would not make sense eighter. If i remember correctly Trisolaran robots assisted him farming. If they were that small, wouldnt it make sense that their helper robots would be small too?

Maybe if they are that advanced they don't use radio signals and communicate in a way we don't understand. Maybe on a quantum level a bit like the sophons. Or just as scary there might not be any other advanced aliens out there just simple lifeforms. That's science we just don't know until we find out.

And the aliens were never really described in the original books, it was only in the fan made redemptions of time book that they were described, tho cixin liu did give his blessing on the book so it’s like half cannon. In the show you saw how they made those tiny computers, they first blow the proton to the size of a planet and THEN they create the computer on it, before shrinking it after they are done. So no there’s no evidence still in the show that shows what they look like at all

Also on a planet like Trisolaris you would have thought they would have built underground cities to survive chaotic periods but the dehydration is an evolutionary process which even the plants undertake.

    As we're are already discovering ourselves, it's relatively easy to find star systems that have planets in their "Goldilocks Zones." Those are the places we suspect could harbor life, and thus any sufficiently advanced species on the hunt for possible competitors ought to to be searching for such planets just as we are. So, why haven't they found us yet? Fermi's Paradox still holds true, even in the Dark Forest scenario.

    Thanks for the video.
    This is why I, largely, avoid modern science fiction. I also suspect this is why Hollywood is doing so poorly with film releases lately. Everything is the end of the world / apocrypha. Once, or twice, this is entertaining. But it gets really boring after a while.
    None of these science fiction authors have it in them to write something new/interesting.
    For those that care, esoterically speaking, the world is not coming to an end. Apocrypha is always local in nature. The world, and by extension, humanity will do just fine. Doomers aren't just boring... they are dumb. Ultimately most people who give in to this are just using it to excuse their own laziness. Actually making the world a better place takes a lot of work.
    FWIW, Aaron Cleary has a great book called the "Curse of the Hi IQ" that gets into some of the psychology.
    I just spent the weekend hanging out with a few billionaires. The positive nature of their vibe was really refreshing. It is just a shame so many, who could do what they do, talk themselves out of it. The world would be a much better place.

    The story contradicts itself in its premise. There should be loads of civilizations throughout the universe just given the number of rocky planets that theoretically could support life. But it's important to consider that Earth has had some ridiculously long periods of stability leading up to the evolution and development of human societies. Our planet is long overdue for a cosmic catastrophe or cataclysmic natural disaster. In contrast the san-ti or tri-solerans evolved on one of the most unstable forms of terrestrial bodies. Making them to resemble even hardier tardigrades is a retcon to fix a gaping hole in the plot of the novels. I'd also love to see the entire narrative of the books' concepts being brilliant or even novel be actually contemplated. Since the first stories told by humans - the other has always been a threat to be hidden from or confronted. Is it really such a stretch to be the same for the ulitame "other"?
