    I was wondering that too at first but here’s my theory: at the beginning, the monkey murks everyone except for young Steven Yeun. They have a mutual sense of understanding, but the monkey gets shot. Similarly, when OJ looks up at the monster, I felt that they had a sense of mutual understanding/respect and the monster just left him alone (you never see him being lifted up). Just like the monkey, not long after this moment, the monster gets killed.

    wym thats what they wanted it to look like, it chose that appearance not them

    I think he means we naturally assume UFOs are this round scary object so that’s how the characters seen em Until the UFO showed it’s true form

    Made me think of mothra or like a big version of that alien from life

    Word the message I got from that is we have this scary assumption of UFOs and Aliens that they are these scary looking things but really they might be a beautiful looking unique specimen

    I liked how this movie played out like a novel in a way, with the chapters and the random flashbacks to showcase backstory, usually novels will skip around in time and I like that subtle aspect of the film. I guess you can say that had a Tarantino feel to it as well

    I wanna know Peele’s writing process for this. I know with Get out he wrote a good amount of back story especially for the secret society and all this information we would never see in the movie. I guarantee he wrote a full f***in story for Stevens character. He was definitely the most unique and crazy how they killed him at the midpoint. I really thought bro was the chosen one and was gonna survive lol

    The movie was great but I couldn’t hear half of it clearly because people don’t know how to act in public anymore. The guy to my left was facetiming during the movie, checking his phone constantly and didn’t even have it on silent so u heard every text and his iphone making typing noises and the three ladies next to my group just talked at full volume over every scene in the movie where they were talking. This is my first time going to the theatre post pandemic and it will be the last. Wish I hadn’t spoiled a great movie with that environment.

    Sorry to hear that,everyone in the theater with me was into the movie. One guy next to me was on his phone texting but it was silent

    Crazy. did y’all think the ufo resembled a Angel in a way or some type of thing wit wings

    ive definitely thought about it being an angel but since theres no definitive proof or putting 2 and 2 together to figure it out its most likely not. Hope Peele never speaks on what that thing is and lets people speculate

    to me the 2 things you can put together is that and the biblical verse at the start. I mean it sets the tone of the film..a biblical verse talking about spectacles. But I like how it’s one those things where the viewer interprets what they see, there’s no definitive answer

    I love how we all are able to present our own perspectives of the film and piece the puzzle together, together. That’s really how films should be (not all) Where you walk out the theater maybe a little confused on certain parts but then when you get to discussing you start being opened up to little details you might of missed but someone else caught. This my friend is what you call a layered film.

    But yeah they definitely all connect because Jordan Peele main message is showing the real monster is humans. I mean we kept watching all these humans keep provoking the UFO as if it’s a toy that you can make do tricks. Same thing with Gordy the monkey. Same thing with owning the horses. When you think about it the idea of owning horses to use for races and to do tricks is actually a really f\*\*\*ed up concept that lowkey connects to slavery in its own way. We own these animals to make em do what we want and make money off them rather than just letting em run free in the wilderness

    the fact that this thing literally had 0 intentions to move from out of the cloud unless something was disturbing it or in its territory,tells you everything. It claimed the ranch as its territory and it had 0 intentions to move from that spot,until it was provoked and teased

  • Jul 22, 2022

    Daniel was a great choice too because he knows how to convey HORROR with his eyes alone. Look at the get out poster for example. And like I said earlier obviously eyes play a big part in the film

    Facts and one might argue “well the UFO is in our territory” but then that becomes a question of: Who was really here first? As humans we are definitely control freaks as a whole, we want to control the weather, we want to control populations and other countries, we want to control relationships, we want to control the way our bodies look, we want to control animals and this movie showcases that by the characters wanting to control the horses, the monkey and the UFO

    from the obsession of getting a good pic of the UFO to Gordy losing his mind over popping ballons and Ricky turning that moment into a memorabilia museum to hide his trauma. I'd say that,humans obssession with entertainment is kinda like the villain in this movie butbits not really a villian. Its more like how our obsession with constantly wanting to know/capture every single piece of info we can makes us not care about our surroundings/what we are witnessing right in front of us

    i loved how subtle the humor was in this movie. the part where angel starts oversharing about his life when he’s there to set up the cameras felt straight out of a key & peele sketch. i was cracking up too bc i was literally on a customer service call last week when the girl starts telling me ab her kids out of nowhere lmao

    Exactly,animals are suppose to be able to be tamed,but what happens when everything goes off the rails? Its like the movie was asking "when everything goes wrong,do you keep filming/watching?

    Kinda but there are details within the movie

  • Jul 22, 2022

    This might be my favorite movie of the year now. We still got a few more to go like Killer moon and Babylon (and hopefully the whale) but damn I think I loved this more than Everything Everywhere

    Serious question has it been an underwhelming year for movies or am I just not recalling some the great films I’ve seen this year?

    top 5 off the top of my head is this, everything everywhere, cha cha real smooth, Macbeth and Happening

    Also don’t forget the cameraman lol bro sacrificed his life to get the perfect shot inside the UFO, I think that scene captures what you saying too because it shows humans will go as far as risking they lives. Kinda the people who chase tornados for fun to get cool video of it (not the ones who use it for study and data)
