What's Up With Those Dinosaurs in Hulu's 'Palm Springs'? - TheWrap

Andy Samberg and Cristin Milioti’s new time loop romantic comedy briefly has some dinosaurs in it, and we’re confused.

(This article contains major spoilers for the time loop comedy “Palm Springs” on Hulu).

But hey, at least we have “Palm Springs,” the new wacky time loop comedy in the vein of “Groundhog Day” that stars Andy Samberg and Cristin Milioti.

So we’ve got Nyles (Samberg), Sarah (Milioti) and Roy (JK Simmons), all experiencing this one day together, repeatedly.

And “Palm Springs” is a romantic comedy, so of course Nyles and Sarah form an emotional bond over the course of the film.

Nyles mentions the dinosaurs at the end “Palm Springs,” so we know that he saw dinosaurs.

Nyles, having been stuck in the time loop for what was likely decades, almost certainly had spent some time with those dinosaurs.

And just before this scene, we’d gotten a montage of Sarah and Nyles embracing the loop together and getting into all sorts of shenanigans together.

We don’t know how much time passed during this montage, but it’s important to keep in mind that it was probably weeks or months, or maybe even years.

“Palm Springs” is a fun romantic comedy, not a Christopher Nolan sci-fi movie, and lengthy scenes explaining the quantum mechanics of this loop wouldn’t really fit
