I believe they explained in the movie why they lack armor, or at least a helmet. It's pretty much any direct hit from a mimic punches through any armor they have.

The aliens are actually explained as basically nanomachine constructs intended to terraform (or I guess xenoform) Earth, started in the ocean and were basically forced to evolve into barrel bodied starfish creatures in order to fight humans and complete the terraforming. The movie really just took some of the names and most basic concepts of the plot and used them to make a pretty generic Sci-fi action vehicle for Tom Cruise.

Late to the show, but my cracked out theory for how the Mimics can essentially time travel is their hivemind. While Roanoke touched on them being haploid and only the death of an Alpha mattering and the Omega somehow using some sort of field or something that we haven't even touched on yet, I think that "field" is their hivemind connection. It's essentially just one giant nervous system made of millions of individual creatures, and using the neuron power of that they can somehow rewind the flow of time, kinda like how 40K orcs can just collectively believe something into existence, with all those Mimics essentially sharing one mind the Omega can cheat and group think time back a day. Kinda like how we have the Mandela Effect, if enough people believe it, that's just how it is despite reality being different.

As a huge fan of your channel as well as Helldivers 2 it’s so fitting for you to be using the music and imagery from the game given your stance on humanity being #1.

Love your videos. But I’m sure that a lot of people, including me, would love it if you did a video about the precursors from pacific rim.

There are a few things I wish Roanoke went over in this video. For one, the Mimics seem to be composed of obsidian crystals and have a very high internal body temperature, hence why when the alpha's blood first fell on Cruz's character it burned through his body. I can feasibly see them as having evolved underwater, but it would be interesting trying to explain the exact reason why they're crystalline in appearance and have such a high internal temperature in the first place. My theory? They're silicon based life forms with an incredibly fast metabolism, which is why they're able to move at the speeds they do and why their blood is scalding hot. It really lends to the feel of them being completely alien, almost moreso than their strange ability to hop through time Whenever they're on the brink of losing. Almost.

The best way to think of this type of time travel, is a checkpoint system from a video game. It’s less time travel and more so a time jump. The Omega has set a point in time before the invasion, the thing being able to plan ahead and fix any errors in the invasion. It’s trying it’s best to keep its best units alive, aka, it’s save scumming like in an RTS. This is why there is no time paradox, as since it’s simply reloading an old save, there is no other time stuff going on. Just a single timeline with one save file

This is one of my favorite movies and definitely very high in my sci Fi movies. They did something truly original with the Mimics.

Thanks, Roanoke. I will not be able to look at my fingers the same, I will always call them little arms now.
