 perhaps we as humans needed to face them not just physically, but spiritually
 as well. Hence the focus on willpower and fighting prowess.
text from the post that was included in the image, but not the text body of the post:  perhaps we as humans needed to face them not just physically, but spiritually as well. Hence the focus on willpower and fighting prowess.  at the beginning of the movie they might try shooting them with guns / explosives, I forget? if they don't work then maybe it's because these types of monsters don't "believe" it'll work (because they don't "get" what an explosion is) but punching it will because they "get" what being punched implies  ... haven't seen the movie in a while. They're from a different dimension, right?
