Planet of the Apes: What It's Ending Means For Us Today
이 영화가 40년전 영화라니...
The most pleasant thing about the movie is the lovely smile on Loretta Bell's face (the sheriffs wife played by Tess Harper) - she is the only person completely untouched and unaffected by all evil in the movie.
Policemen in fiction are heroes. Policemen in real life are p.
Many do a lot of good putting bad people away but in a way they are all bad because they rarely arrest the bad ones and much rarer still is arresting Po liticians when they break the law, which they do all the time.
amazing movie with powerful moral symbolism both in the film itself, and in discussions that came later... but "the truth" is never better hidden. That is a falsehood, and we cannot learn anything from accepting lies. So on that point you made about Zayus, I disagree. Good intentions are not an excuse to lie.
@mydogjesus I totally agree with you, it's not okay at all (this clip is part of a larger conversation so some context might be missing), in this part, I think we were just trying to understand his motives.
An incredible movie that reflects life
Agreed! One of my personal favorites.
Liked and subscribed. EVERYTHING about your video is nostalgic, would love to see more. I'm seriously impressed and I agree 100% with what you've said. Definitely my favorite aspect of the original Star Wars trilogy.
Wow, thank you so much! Feel free to check out our podcast on this channel for more in-depth conversations!
Ohhh this video hit deep, dropping a sub for sure
Thanks! Feel free to check out the full episode in the description if you want to hear more about Logan! 😀
Logan is a masterpiece and a one of the best films of 2017, along with War for The Planet Of The Apes.
Excelent movie....
Hello guys! I love this movie! So much! I've watched every commentary video like yours I can find here on UA-cam and I thought I'd share a really interesting very subjective 'Easter egg' that I heard in another video that I had never considered before. But now that I've heard it, it strikes me as perfect, making me love the movie that much more! At the very end of the movie, where Calum walks through those double doors into the rave for the last time, and we see the door close after he goes through....when the doors come together again, the metal push plates on each door come together and to me kinda resembles a 'pause' button. This could be seen as a metaphor for how all the unprocessed emotions and unanswered questions have her kind of 'stuck' / paused, have kind of 'paused' her life in some ways and that part of her life is 'frozen in time' as if the pause button were pushed forever and she can't see past it. I dunno. I thought that was an amazing theory, subjective as it may be.
Thank you for your comment and for being a regular listener! The 4 of us were out to dinner when we read your comment, we went to look up that scene and lo and behold, it does look like a pause button! That's some fantastic insight you brought, thank you for sharing and we hope to hear from you more in the future!
@@allthingsnarrative I think it makes the movie that much more amazing!

It's just a movie, don't over analyze it.
There's a couple great books I'd recommend checking out: 'The Power of Myth' by Joseph Campbell, and 'The Storytelling Animal' by Jonathan Gottschall. These books illustrate how stories (and films as vehicles for stories) are vital in how we build civilization and our own psyches. The statement "it's just a movie" usually comes from a place of seeing movies as being mere entertainment. But if you study the history of story, including film, you see that these stories go far beyond than just being entertainment value, especially science fiction, which as a genre is seeking to explore what it means to be human.
And sometimes the mission is Life itself
It's part of the system too wholesole
The mission is sure important
I forgot Villeneuve did Dune. His earlier 'Incendies' was also really good.
I definitely wanna do a deep dive into his filmography, I've only seen Arrival, Blade Runner 2049, and the Dune films

CHRIST IS KING❤
I love this
hello my dudes👊 very cool video, and your channel looks awesome! will dive into it idk why the UA-cam algorithm suddenly got better for me, and its giving some great small channels!
Thanks man!
Thank you for checking to the channel! We hope you enjoy our conversations about stories and films! 👍
This is exciting! Great value! Looking forward to learning from you even more!
Thank you Susan :)
Love seeing everyone’s faces
Haven't actually watched this video yet (it's on the watch list) but YES. Personally have no time for made up stories 'fiction' pretend 'characters'. Like eating mashed paper instead of food.
Thanks for the comment! One great nonfiction book I recommend in this episode is called 'The Storytelling Animal' by Jonathan Gottschall. It explores the psychological and socio-cultural benefits of fiction. In my experiences, people tend to prefer one over the other (fiction or non-fiction). I hope you enjoy this episode, and feel free to check out my episode on fiction if you want to hear some of the ways it too can have a valuable place in our lives. All the best to you! :)
@@allthingsnarrative I'll check that out. I do love storytelling, particularly memoir, biography, history of science etc. And have appreciated more 'mythic' fiction such as Neil Gaiman, Ursula LeGuin, TH White. It's just the 'pretend its real' fiction I don't get on with anymore. Well done for your vlog, cheers
I can definitely see that, I'm drawn to the mythic fiction as well. Thanks and cheers to you @@newgabe09
The production quality is insane, the narration is nice too
