Best documentary I've ever watched. My favorite bit was about the squids adapting to living on land
Crazy how scientists can know the future is going to be just like this
>>214665729indeed
TRUST.THE.SCIENCE.
>>214665729>>214665815That's him, Janny! There he is!
>>214665884What is this from?>>214665710I like your enthusiasm. What did you like about it?
>>214665815Get excited for the next science
>>214666082>What is this from?Man after man
>>214665815Imagine getting this worked up over silly speculative discourse.
>>214665815There's a difference between nü-Bill Nye-esque HECKING SCIENCE IS PRO-LGBT shit and cool animal designs, you retarded fuckface, please kys
spec evo is so funthere are a few youtube videos covering some spec evo stories that are quite fun
>>214666185>Man after manInteresting. Is it just a book?picrel is pretty good. the science is right.

>>214666323>>214666272There used to be spec evo threads all over /v/ and /tv/ back in the day.I remember grabbing the pdf for All Tomorrows on /tg/ and when I tried to share it some guy though it was a virus because it was sub-3mbs. Must have been 10 years ago.Yea it's a book, I think a relatively old one for the genre, might be consider one of the cornerstone works.Life After People from what I remember was mostly about how the city-of-the-week will collapse over the next 100 years, so I am not sure it falls under the umbrella of spec-evo.Not that many shows about the subject, I know of OP, Alien Planet and Extraterrestrial, the latter two of which are aliens, not evolution of Earth life
>>214665884>>214666082>>214666185https://superduque777.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/3-man-after-man.pdfI found it. Holy shit. I have never seen anything like this before. Thank you, anon.
>>214665710it was enjoyable but they really, really stretched the suspension of disbelief with this one.
Serina tho...
>>214666185>>214666082>>214665884They even have the future Africans.
>>214666620not gonna read that but has weird pictures
>>214665710Get back in the water motherfucker
>>214666694Present day African for reference
>>214665776Pure muscle legs lifting 8 tons is retarded, they could've just said that the inner muscle fibers on the tentacles hardened into a natural polymer.
>>214666690>creates a smart, cat sized burrowing bird that's basically extinction proof>realize they'll dominate your whole world for millions of years going foward>Pull some bullshit about aliens coming in and taking them away so you can focus on other animalsthat was some bullshit.
>>214666505>There used to be spec evo threads all over /v/ and /tv/ back in the day./an/ has a spec evo general. It's a decent community with a lot of OC.
>>214667080>>214666694>>214666185>>214666082>>214665884We Will Be Azns n shietThis is the most fascinating book I've ever come across. I can't stop reading it. 11/10 stuff.
>>214665710Why there isn't more shit like this? I need more shit like this.
SEA STRIDERS
>>214667253That one is obvious. I was more talking about how the topic used to make it's rounds.
>>214668440based alien planet enjoyer
>>214665710Nature is wild. There's no need for this fanfic mumbo jumbo, go watch some real documentaries.
Anyone remember the cartoon version of it?
>>214669046No, but it looks interesting. French/Belgian/Canadian design?
>>214665815>more than half of the population would take this as a real "documentary" unless it was explained to them that it's only speculation. This is the world we live in.
>>214669075It's by Canada, Singapore and the US apparently.
>>214665710I haven't seen the documentary (yet), but I own the book version of The Future Is Wild and the book version of The Future Is Wild is supremely kino. I love the topic of future evolution (AKA speculative evolution). My favourite creatures from the book version of The Future Is Wild are flishes (AKA flying fishes).
>>214666185My school library used to have Man After Man and I fucking loved Man After Man so much that I kept on borrowing it. Good times.
>>214669391As a kid I was gifted this book and had no idea it was based on a documentary, I only found out 20 years later. I am watching the whole thing on YT right now and I feel like a child again
>>214665710Dude imagine the BJ's you could get from that thing.
>>214665884kek
All Tomorrows chads?
>>214666690It was cool until everything started turning into mammals.
>>214668440What do they eat?
>>214665776those and the squids swinging through trees like monkeys
https://youtu.be/EITdCWYTn2I?si=nUlrTFB2-fAj7ifJScavengers reign felt like an excuse to show off cool spec evo stuff.Also check out Codex Seraphinianus
>>214670462They eat stuff off the ocean floor through their feet.
>>214665776I'M WALKING HERE
>>214665710I had a book about this as a kid and I thought they were extinct animals like dinosaurs. In my defense I didnt know how to read.
>>214673579*blocks your path*WATCH OUT, BIG GUY
>>214669046The original documentary was way cooler, shitty CGI aside seeing those creepy ass mutants in live action environment added to the realism
I now remember Primeval.
>>214674970ugh i'm the future predator nice to banana you
>>214674970They had some good ideas. It was 'cringekino' to use a /tv/ term.
>>214675050Why is this "bat will eveolve into super land predators" bullshit so common?Just because they have super fast muscle fibers?
>>214675554>fast twitch muscle fibers
>>214675554Name 5 other instances where that has happened.
I was tree planting one summer and on a day off I was shitfaced in a tiny town in northern BC and went to a used bookstore. I found Man After Man and at first laughed because it seemed like a Tobias Funke joke. I leafed through it and bought it immediately. It made the rounds in our camp that summer everyone loved it. I asked the super slut on our crew if that was the name of her autobiography and she cried for some reason kek
>>214675618Rick and MortyThe SimpsonsAnimaniacsWho’s the Boss?Species
>>214675618Gotham CityWuhanTransilvaniaUhUhh
>>214668440>in the book these were twice the height of the statue of libertyWhat the fuck was Barlowe smoking?
>>214675748>I asked the super slut on our crew if that was the name of her autobiographytop kek
>>214668440I think Wayne Barlowe will eventually be remembered as one of the all time greats but I don't think it will happen during his lifetime
>>214666185Kino after kino
>>214676622Neville Paige stole his thunder.
>>214665776>documentary>it's pure fiction
>>214676822It is. It documents people coming up with fiction
>>214676622>Wayne BarloweI saw the pics over the years, but never bothered to check the author. Now that and am checking his work I'm quite impressed.

>>214677202that's just regular evolution
