Apparently, in Australia, we live in the worst possible future: a future where everyone lives in Adelaide and Brisbane. Ha that was my first question as I didn't think Australia was populated that far inland at all.

You'd think there'd be more Kiwis on the west coast of New Zealand, eating popcorn and watching the fireworks.

This is not the only location with questionable lights. It's like some artist was told that the world has changed and then went bonkers lighting poo poo up without putting the whole process through a social, historical and geopolitical prism before painting the world with dots. I mean, that's exactly what happened and it bothers me too but nobody asked me. No amount of alien invasion is going to cover eastern Australia in city sprawl in a matter of a couple decades.

This movie is alt history, so maybe the world governments decided the outback would be a good base of operations for human/alien hybrid weapons testing

It would be like the US developing all its cities from New York to Denver in twenty years only it's on top of desert instead of the most fertile farmland in the world.

Actually one of the plot points of the film is that desert regions of the planet are no very lush and thriving due to alien terraforming that they started off-screen in the first film. It's how a small group of surviving aliens have lived in the African desert for so many years undetected.

kiimo posted:You philistines need to shut the gently caress up about E.T. you flashlight holding oppressors. That's fantastic. But I've been perplexed by how much they're seemingly referencing E.T. there. Like, I almost expect the shoe to drop, and surprise! It's E.T.! And he brought friends, though not as nice as him! That, or they have no idea that they were drawing comparisons, and it's just a coincidence. Either way, the logo is super evocative and I'm super pumped.
