Isn't the safe-space on Long Island? Long Island has multiple bridges and tunnels connecting to the mainland. But again, we have no indication that the aliens have technology. If these are ships, then they could do it. It's possible, but it seems unlikely to me. all have a bunch of islands to keep operating from.įor the meteors to land worldwide, they'd have to be spaced out enough in space to keep hitting the Earth as it rotates for a day. The US, Canada, Denmark, UK, India, Japan, New Zealand, Indonesia, etc. It seems to me that a number of governments in the world should still be functioning in some capacity, rather than completely collapsed. But every US island and island base? Every island country? That doesn't strike me as likely. North/South America, Asia/Africa/Europe, Australia and Greenland are pretty big, so I'll buy them all getting hit. Even with multiple landings, it's pretty unlikely that the aliens would strike every landmass. The aliens rush towards the sound, fall into the water and die. You just equip a boat with speakers, sail it out a few hundred feet, and then hit play. If the aliens can't swim, that makes alien fighting pretty straightforward. But we aren't shown anything to indicate that the aliens posses any technology. I suppose if these are ships, rather than meteors and can slow their descent, you can handwave that away. The shockwave from that big a meteor crashing would flatten the town. Here's a list of my plotholes for this film: I think we're supposed to take that to mean that things are deteriorating enough that soldiers are calling up family members to warn them - which would indicate multiple landings. I'll throw in Emmet saying his brother who's in the military tried to leave a message for him. He news report of the 'bomb' has already been mentioned as indicating multiple landings.
