How do the kids grow and mature without eating anything?


It would take an extraordinary amount of calories with a rich mixture of nutrients, vitamins and minerals to achieve such growth, yet they never eat anything. Same for growing a baby in the womb. Suspension of disbelief I guess.

They were left with a huge amount of food, which they finished. The kids were starving and couldn't stop eating until a few hours later when they became a certain age. And when the girl (I don't remember her name off hand) was pregnant, she was stuffing her face.

I am watching it right now and I don't see any face stuffing. Even if there was, still not nearly enough calories to account for the growth or creating a baby. Not even close

Maybe you have a different version than I saw. I don't know what to tell you. In the movie I saw, they were left with a huge amount of food which the kids ate. They kept stating they were hungry and kept eating more and more.

I wouldn't go into it too deeply though, it is only a movie, and we all know that what happened to these poor people in the movie could not happen in real life (thankfully 🙂).

THAT IS HOW I REMEMBER IT AS WELL.

Thanks for your input. For a minute I thought I was losing it.

Kara the pregnant girl opened a pasta sachet and was eating it aka stuffing her face. When she offered it to Trent, he said he wasn't hungry.

overindulging for a few days = Nowhere near enough calories to grow a baby.

Whatever your issue is, there clearly was a scene where she was stuffing her face unlike your claims.

You don't see them eat very often but it is clear that they eat a lot because they were left with a lot of food. They have probably eaten off camera. People also have to shit, you're not going to say they haven't shit because you didn't see them shit on the screen.

The Preggers girl stuffed her face with pasta. Perhaps you didn't reach that part yet? It's been a year have you got there yet??

reply

There were multiple scenes of the kids quite literally stuffing their faces...? There was also dialogue talking about how the kids were so hungry because they were growing into adults while everyone else was in their final form. Maybe re-watch the movie again...

The were fed nutrients through a plot hole.
