This movie was dumb as hell. You have the power to see the future and all you can do with that is not shut up about your dead kid.

Sorry about your incorrect opinions dude.

I loved Arrival, but I have some questions about it.

If the Heptapods have non-linear memories, wouldn't they already know the renegade soldiers would plant bomb on their ship? Wouldn't Abbott know he was going to die? Why didn't they stop it?

Also, I presume non-linear memories only account for the lifetime of the individual that has them, yet the the Heptapods have foresight into events that won't happen for 3000 years. Do they just live that long?

Yes.
