Full Reaction to "The Edge of Tomorrow"
Added 2021-11-18 00:05:38 +0000 UTCHello dear patrons,
Welcome to the most voted movie from the Sci-Fi poll ๐
Is it safe to say it reminds me of Groundhog Day? I know the theory is not 100 the same, but still... ๐ณ
I hope you enjoy it! Stay safe ๐

Since no one in all these months has told you the reason for the British generals drastic decision to make Cage a deserter it was because he tried to blackmail him. He would've originally been on the beach not as a private but in his rank of Major.

2022-07-16 18:47:45 +0000 UTCA fun movie, very relatable for the gamer crowd :) It's worth considering that although we don't exactly reset everything, each day we wake up is another chance to learn something new. General Brigham had Cage assigned as an embedded reporter on the front line. Cage didn't want to go (as he was a bit of a coward at the start). Cage tried to blackmail the General (threatened to ruin his career), so the General punished him by accusing him of desertion and stripping him of his rank. Yeah, probably wouldn't quite work that way normally - but it's the day prior to a major invasion, so no-one really has time to ask any questions. The General no doubt believes that Cage will be dead long before there's any problems - a very vindictive move. (Sidenote, the General is played by my fav Brendan Gleeson, the father from 28 Days Later :D) I don't think there's a clear reason (other than drama) why the timeline resets so far back after he kills the Omega - just he gets the blood, and wishes I suppose. The doctor talked about how the mimics were all part of the Omega, so with the Omega gone, it follows that they'd just be inactive. Just remember the next time you die in a Dark Souls-like game, you'll hear "Wake up maggot!" :D
