Yes, that's logical, but as a storyteller I'd hope he (they, really) would sculpt things a little more to let the audience in on some things. What's the point of telling a story if your audience doesn't get it? I'm not saying spoon-feed us; some of the best literature takes a lot of personal work and interpretation to get something out of it. There's value to the puzzle you have to solve yourself in order to get the cookie. But the storyteller should provide enough clues for that to happen.

The mystery is in those details. He tells the story from what the humans can -see- and figure out, but they never -know- everything. <br /><br />You went into the movie looking at it the wrong way. Yes it was a prequel but it was not intended to be answer to everything.Lord Solar Stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00252060382871829075noreply@blogger.com
