Never be Mel Gibson's wife in a movie.
That's funny...or related period
"Is the daughter an alien?!?!"...cut to M. Night watching this at home "Honey!...I just found my new writing partner."
“What a twist!” - M. Knight Shamalan (Probably)
rolf. You're way better than M. Night.
"Felt wrong not to swing.."
My favorite line, it means so much.
underrated for sure
My grandparents said that when putting their car keys in a fish bowl. Never was sure what they meant
@@loodlebop /slow clap
As someone who has pulled off base hits from an overhead chop at the ball I understand the sentiment....
You miss every swing you don't take.
Great reaction. Oh and your super cute. To me.
"You didn't think we'd make it through the night, did you?"
Ashleigh: "fuck no I didn't!"
Absolutely killed me 😂😂😂
My mom took me to see this in the drive-in theatre, middle of nowhere, behind the screen and to the left giant ass cornfield. I swear to god, every breeze that went by I lost a year off my life.
But we do agree you've got a cool mom, right?😂
@@ronnyschedler24285 Definitely, there has not been one second of my life that I have ever thought anything different. Our ages are close though, she had me early in life. She was, and still is a best friend.
God bless your mom for giving you the best scare of your life. All these years later and you’re still talking about it, you’re lucky, what a cool mom.
That happened to me with the fourth kind.
Joaquin Phoenix freaking out when he sees the aliens is both hilarious and terrifying! It was on Bravos 100 Scariest Movie Moments!
Imagine Mark Walberg. “Uncle Merrill, are the aliens gonna try and kill us?” “What? No!”
@@NWAWskeptic The fact I read that and heard his voice is great. Lol
I like in the Poconos about an hour away from Bucks County, Joaquin Phoenix was in The Joker and if you want to see a good "older " movie" he was in check out Clay Pigeons which also has Vince Vaughn in it the movie is from 1998. Yes I am back now had some family health problems to take care of. Needed to help my mom after she had a small stroke. She is better now just needs physical therapy for walking
He was so magic in this movie over all. When he's running around the house with Mel. 😂😂😂
You should definitely watch “Contact”. It’s a great sci-fi/alien movie.
I love the theme that there are no coincidences. Boo’s OCD with water, her brothers asthma, these things ended up saving the family in the end. Also the humor in this movie hits so well!!
That's the thing. I know this movie gets flack for not being logical but it's not meant to be. It's about everything happening for a reason and a lost man finding his faith after loss.
The illogic of this movie is believing aliens would travel light years to take over a planet they are 70% allergic to.
@@GeryonM Ah! But you see, they didn't travel light years to take over a planet they are 70% allergic to. They traveled light years to go onto a planet whose surface is 70% covered in what they're allergic to, whose atmosphere contains what they're allergic to, in sufficient quantities that it reguralry falls down on the surface in massive quantities, in order to hunt for food creatures that are 60% composed of what they're allergic to! 🤣
Oh! And they traveled all those light years despite lacking the capacity to use their super tech to navigate around the world without making markings in crop fields!🤣
Hmm, actually that might explain the first part. Maybe they're really dumb and incompetent, got lost, and made a desperate attempt to grab some food here. That does make it even more nonsensical on the whole though...
Good job writing, M. Night Shalalalaman! As always!
@@GeryonM Humans are just that tasty, it's worth the risk! ;)
HeatRaver Can confirm. You can’t stop at just one.
This movie is really about one man's loss of faith. The alien story is actually the subtext. Love it
Right on the nose, but the aliens are the PREtext, faith is the subtext
One of the best scenes in movie history, in my opinion, is when the father is hugging the kids, they are all crying, and then the camera just pans to the uncle and you see the father's hand coming from offscreen and pull him in too.
I always appreciate how on-point Ashleigh is with spotting tractors in movies :D
"There's a monster outside my room. Can I have a glass of water?"
That line always stuck with me. Glad you included it. It's so terrifying and calm all at the same time.
I wasn't of the faith when I first saw this movie, but I appreciated that moment when he realizes all these things had a purpose. The Asthma, the glasses of water and Merrill and the baseball bat, and swing away.
I like the theory that the aliens are actually demons. Burning lights in the sky, afraid of water so maybe holy water
"I never had a holler on the channel like that before" haha
I remember showing my sister this movie. I grabbed her shoulder at the moment the alien in the coal chute grabbed the boy's shoulder. Took forever to get her off the ceiling. 😂
I remember seeing this with a group of friends in the cinema and being absolutely terrified 😂 it’s amazing how iconic the alien at the birthday party scene was. No one in the cinema was expecting to see that!
The little girl germophobia saved them (water glasses everywhere in the house).
The little kid ashma saved him from the poison gas (closed his lungs and didn't get it).
Merryl's bat and past talent saved them (knocked the F out of the E.T. with it)
The agonizing mother told Merryl exactly what he needed to do against the alien before she died ("swing away").
All the signs gets connected and gets their meaning on the last act. :)
I love this movie. Most alien invasion stories are action movies about the military or scientists trying to defeat them, etc. This one basically ignores all that and focuses on one family coping with it amidst the grief they were already suffering.
Yeah, I’ve never really thought of this as an alien movie at its core. What it is to me is a story about a man who lost his faith and regains it. The alien stuff was just the vehicle to move him though that journey.
In that context, A Quiet Place is like a modern version of that concept.
@@HeatRaver Yes, good point.
"what's the water going to do to the monster"
You'd be surprised.
I love this movie. Not only a cool alien movie, but “Signs” that are sprinkled through that carries the backstory. This movie showed me to always look for “signs”. And to be fair, all little children are aliens, lol! I know I have 3 and always leaving their drinks everywhere 😂
I thought the same thing 😂 I was like “she’s never hollered like that before” loved it😂
that scene of the two brothers talking on the couch about fate/coincidence is one of my favorites ever.
lol the terrifying scream when it reached under the door .. that was amazing lol
"Felt wrong not to swing" - Always love that line.
If I ever get in a bad situation where I'm trapped in place, I want to hear Ashleigh saying "Hey, buddy, you going through it?".
Funny story: my mom and dad moved into a new house when I was a baby. Started hearing static and voices over the baby monitor. Freaked them out to the point of them taking turns sleeping in the room with me. Then realized….they were picking up radio traffic from the small town airport. 😂🤣😂 #notaliens #notghosts
Yeah, that's what they told you!
👽
@@inside98 oh snap, you may be right…*grabs the tin foil*
Responsible parents. 👍
@@inside98 Good Call "INSIDE"!!
I heard about a couple who kept hearing a kid giggling in their bedroom. They traced it to a talking Captain Scarlet doll in a closet that was picking up next door's baby monitor.
The guy who played Ray is M. Night Shyamalan, just like Stan Lee he always does a cameo in his movies. Watching you accuse Bo of being an alien was cracking me up!! Great reaction!
Even more related to the genre, Alfred Hitchcock also would do cameo's in his movies, as well.
I believe Stephen King also appears in his movies
@@jeffh1266I’ve always thought of Shyamalan being my generation’s Hitchcock.
@@Uatu-the-Watcher Yup, that's the way I looked at him, as well
Quentin Tarantino does as well, I believe. Lovelovelove ❤️✌🏻🌷
Your Scream when the alien hand came out under the door...Epic. Truly made my day...Could not stop laughing, after making sure you did not have a heart attack..Of Course😂😂😂😂 Love this movie!!!
"There's a monster outside my room, can I have a glass of water?"
this is one of my favorite movies. i remember walking down stairs when i was a kid while my parents were watching it at the birthday party scene, it fucked me up.
glad you liked it!
After 30 years, I still jump at that scene and the one on the tv screen holding Bo.
I rarely fall for jump scares in movies because I tend to predict what's going to happen next but, in the pantry scene, when we were all looking for the alien in the knife's reflection... and the HAND shoots out instead!!!.... It was SUCH a good misdirect. You had to scrape me off the ceiling of the cinema that day. LOL
I heard a fun theory that the twist in the movie was supposed to be that the aliens were actually demons, which was why there were no spaceships, and they were basically naked with no weapons aside from their own gases, they were stopped by wooden doors and the water (in a priests home) melts them.
Ooo, maybe that “primitive method” was holy water, not just plain water? I mean as a priest there is a reasonably good chance during all his meal prayers he could have said a line like “and bless this house” which coming from a priest would hold significantly more chance of actually creating holy water in the pipes then a regular person saying that.
There's a fan theory that claims the alien was actually spraying Morgan with an asthma spray, but if that were the case it would mean the aliens were friendly and would make Merril the bad guy for taking a baseball bat to them.
I went in to see this movie all alone at a late night screening, not knowing anything about it. I had a very interesting busride home through the city in the dark on my own.
The interleaving of the wife's backstory is really fantastic. And the last segment is timed perfectly. I think this is my favorite Night movie.
I can't remember which Scary Movie it was, maybe 3, but it parodies Signs :)
It gives me goosebumps when Colleen is dying and she says "Tell Morgan to play games, it's okay to be silly. Tell Bo to listen to her brother, he'll always take care of her. Tell Graham to see. Tell him to SEE. And tell Merrill to swing away."
The crop circles are signs... navigational signs for the aliens to follow - like a map Just like the signs that Graham needed to SEE were to help him navigate his path in faith so he ended up right where he needed to be.
@@w1975b yeah its 3 lol
Definitely my favorite, watched it with Ashleigh like it was my first time. Watched it so many times, I can’t count and still jumped when she jumped.
So, the little girl is "Little Miss Sunshine" (Abigail Breslin); she's all grown up and a newlywed! This is the same director as "The Sixth Sense" and was the guy who locked up the alien in his house. For me, this might be his most underrated film. I saw this in the theaters when it came out, and no one knew what this story was going to be! My dad, who usually didn't like this type of film, liked this! It's not really an alien invasion story, but about faith.
I agree..... the funny thing is that I never really thought of this before but we all have a 'measure of faith' that we place in SOMETHING.....whether it be religion or spirituality or science or media or politicians or money .....we all place our faith somewhere
Love this movie. Great reaction! One of taglines for the movie was something like “Don’t see it alone”, and the first time I saw it was in a tiny theater and I was the only one at that particular screening. It made for a great viewing experience, especially with the surround sound. The scene with Mel in the cornfield by himself and you hear their “clicking” coming from different directions was very cool.
Saw this in the theater with my wife, and after we were home I just randomly started making the clicky noises and she just about jumped out of her skin.
I saw this in theaters with my Dad when I was 7, scared the living hell outta me but I do love it as an adult. Mel Gibson is always fantastic and I love the movie's whole message about faith.
6:25 - I can't believe she missed it! That's the first thing that really grabs your attention for the rest of the movie.
17:13 - This is one of my favorite scenes in the movie. The dialogue is so flipping good.
Useless Factoid #75:
the actor that plays the newscaster 26:55 is the same actor that played the grieving dad (the one where the wife was poisoning the little girl) in the Sixth Sense.
Good lord, you people are so alert and know your stuff.
I totally paused the video at that part to stare at his face for twelve seconds until I figured it out 😆
@@reneemixon3994 Just don't ask me what his name is! lol
It's an interesting debate between fate and random chance that permeates the movie that I find most interesting.
Saw this movie for the first time when I was 10 and couldn't walk down the hallway by myself for a week and a half. XD I think the next time I saw it was in high school. My church's youth room was a separate building, out by a cornfield, so the youth pastor thought it'd be fun for us to watch it outside by the cornfield with a projector. And yes, we did indeed wear tinfoil hats. It was a lot less scary that time.
That is awesome, haha
3:45
"You think one person did it?"
Crop circles, like the one just shown, can be made by one or two people in a few hours.
I watched this in the theater and then drove home at 10pm... I was living in Iowa at the time and it was roughly 20-30 miles in the country with almost nothing but corn fields.
That would suck.. lol personally if I had to live near a cornfield I would build a serious fence line, barb wire and all.
@CapFan80 Ikr? With a prickly feeling on the back of your neck the entire drive...
(I'm from corn country, too)
My wife and I saw this in a theatre on our very first date. 21 years later we are still together. We sometimes will pull out the Blu-Ray and watch this on our first date anniversary.
I went to summer camp in the 90s with Merritt Wever, the woman who played Tracey the shop girl.
She used to regularly reenact scenes from The Breakfast Club. Quite well, I might add.
Honestly, one of the coolest people I ever met in my life.
I totally recognized her this time as Elizabeth in New Girl! Funny to hear that about her, it's honestly not surprising!
12:57: "Is it a stranger?"
Me: "No silly, it's M. Night Shyamalan!"
This was my first "horror" movie I had ever seen. The music is so aggressive right at the get-go (rude) and the feeling of isolation with the corn fields... I grew up around many corn fields. "There's a monster outside my room. Can I have a glass of water?" No, girl.. go back to bed. And then the birthday party seen?!?? NO NO NO! Thank you so much for reacting to this film!
"Stop calling me Father...I don't hear my children." One line, two meanings.
Wow!! Love that!
what is the two meanings?
@@YoureMrLebowski the literal reasons for him saying it and him saying he no longer hears his "children" as in congregation, because he is no longer a priest.
@@hulkslayer626 thank you. 👍🏼
I think it's also a reference to how the Father (God) doesn't hear his children (humans), which is Mel Gibson's character's belief at the start
Aliens: lets go to the water planet. But water kills us so dont touch it. Whats the worst that could happen?
Why go to a planet that is surrounded by water if water is your weaknesses . It makes no sense..
@@chrisbowers7523 What did you expect? Shyamalan has always been a second-rate hack.
@Blutteufel true too true and he should not have almost ruined the climate of this movie climax of the movie.
Humans: lets go to that Moon, and then over to that red planet. No atmosphere, so we could suffocate, and the solar radiation would kill us quick, but hey. Whats the worst that could happen?
@@mrkelso Textbook definition of false equivalence...
"whats the water gonna do to the monster" .......... ................ ........................ the coincidence of that comment is amazing .
Morgan and the Reverand both saying "I hate you!" to their father when they are afraid and needing comfort/protection.
Another great reaction. I've always loved that the baby monitor really only "worked" when all four of them were connected physically, even all touching the car.
"Tom, I'll need a ride home."
i will never unsee that...thanks scary movie 3 lol
@@Sk3tch22 Ha ha, same.
Scary Movie 3 has definitely ruined this movie for me.
“I heard they can’t open doors!”
“…They’ve mastered space travel but they can’t get through a wooden door?”
Funniest line in that movie. At least to me!
Best line ever!
"The Village" is another one of my favorite M Night films. Great star studded cast too.
YES! Though nbody talks about it anymore and it does seem to be a movie people either love or hate. I wish ANY reactor would watch it. They always do Sixth sense, unbreakable, signs.
The Village sucked
The scream at 24:00 was so hilarious I literally rewatched it like 10 times 😂
The first time everyone saw Ray outside, the movie for me came to a screeching halt! I really expected the dialogue to go: “Is that him? Yes, that’s him. That’s M. Night Shyamalan. He’s the director of this movie we are in. Where were we….?” I LOVE THIS MOVIE!!
he cameos in all of his movies
That moment is the worm in this apple. Director cameos should be as blended into the background as possible. Instead, he's the town misfit; blending in like a flasher in an elementary school yard.
@@RealTechZenYou decide how you should be blended into the films you make. To tell others what to do in theirs seems rather cuntish to be honest.
One of my all-time favorite movies. A thought-provoking story on coincidence versus a higher power, all tied up in a family drama. Also the score is incredible!
Next up, The Village and then Lady in the Water. Two of my favorite by M. Night Shyamalan
My stepdad and I went to the midnight screening of Signs when I was 12, and afterward, we were both super jumpy when we were walking back to our car in the parking lot, and for the rest of the night. I basically didn't sleep that night, and he let me stay home from school the next day. I think it's still one of my stepdad's favorite movies that he watches probably twice a year.
It's considered one of M. Night's best movies and made everyone really excited to see what he did next. He started with The Sixth Sense, Unbreakable, and Signs. Unfortunately, he followed up Signs with The Village, Lady in the Water, The Happening, the shitty Last Airbender movie, After Earth, and The Visit - all pretty terrible IMO (and in most people's opinion, though I think the The Village and The Visit have a decent amount of fans). Then he did the Split movie and redeemed himself a little bit. Nowadays, he's largely considered pretty hokey and is known for always having a twist ending - usually a pretty crazy twist ending that either makes the movie great or completely ruins it (the twist in Signs caught a ton of flak but I think most people would say it doesn't ruin the movie, though). He's clearly talented if he's got the right material, but now you just never know if a movie of his is gonna be any good.
@9:58 “It’s the Scandinavian Olympian women.” 🤣
I wondered how many "TAKES" that entire scene it took since everyone was probably LAUGHING THEIR BUTTS OFF!
I would love for a Scandinavian female high jumper stalking me.
Her "I don't appreciate the sarcasm" comment always annoyed me. I would be like "well, you're going pretty unreasonable lengths to disprove what I'm saying".
@@sgtpepper1138 yep he should have never apologized
At the 10:36 mark:
That's small-town America for you, honestly. My grandparents owned a farm twenty miles or so outside of a small town in North Dakota. How small? Less than a square mile, with a population right around 1500, give or take, when I was a kid.
And when we went into town--stocking up the icebox, visiting the bank, church on Sunday morning--no one ever thought twice about letting the kids walk around town unaccompanied, and none of the locals batted an eye at the sight of unaccompanied minors.
The dead pan way little Abigail Breslin delivers her lines cracks me up. Also, I think the reaction Merrill gave on the TV was necessary for his terror to add to the suspense as well as the humor when we see him wearing the tin foil. Glad you enjoyed it.
I was an extra in this movie. I was one of the fire fighters at the accident scene. BTW it was filmed on 9/12/2001 and we held a prayer vigil prior to filming.
Sarah Paulson fact: the woman who plays the officer is Cherry Jones. She is also Sarah Paulson's ex-girlfriend.
Oh really, nice little piece of gossip.
Just thought I should mention that M Night Shyamalan mentioned in an interview once that’s this isn’t an alien or sci-fi movie, but that it’s actually a movie about a man who’s faith has been tested and the “aliens” are fallen angels invading earth to further prove that him falling out of faith after his wife’s untimely death was a SIGN. Wild stuff, but if you look at it in that POV it makes total sense. 🤯
Every time I mention this people call me stupid and say things like, "did you even watch the movie!?!?!?" Then I am like, yeah. Did you?
I liked how we could gasp at Morgan telling his father he hated him for letting his mother die and then Mel’s character reflecting his feelings later when told God, the Father, he hated Him because his wife died and his son was dying.
That reminds me of a legend called the "Mowing Devil". A man complained about the job one of his farmers was doing, so the farmer threw down his thresher and said "let the devil mow it for you then". The next day all the crops where laid down like a crop circle.
the fallen angels should've brought scuba suits before they invaded a planet 70% covered in water where it rains all the time.
The Ray character was played by M. Night Shaymalan.
M Knight Shyamalan likes to do a cameo in movies he's directing. He was "Ray Reddy" in this movie, a drug dealer in Unbreakable and "Dr Hill" in The Sixth Sense.
5:48 "What's the water gonna do to the monster?"
Welp, actually...
This movie did an amazing job of building up suspense and anticipation with the music and sound effects. It's never overtly about the spectacle of seeing an alien, up until the very end that is. This one freaked me out GOOD and was the first move I'd seen in surround sound from speakers in my home. Those sound effects would raised the hairs on your neck for sure!
Love Signs. My second favorite M. Night movie after Sixth Sense. Loved The Village as well.
I _adore_ The Village.
Ashleigh, if I had had a daughter in my lifetime, I would have hoped the heck that she would have turned out like you. You are a precious gift to this world.
That was quite the scream Ash!😂😂😂
When I took EMT training in the military, we were told a story about an enlisted man (or officer I can't quite recall now) who had been pinned to a tree with a tank. They called the mans wife and got her there as soon as they could, and she said goodbye to him and they told each other they loved each other. Then they took her off somewhere, because as soon as they would move that tank... that would be it for him - he was kept alive by the pinching of the tank/tree - no more lower half. Instantly dead as soon as they moved the tank. Yikes.
crush syndrome
@floydlooney6837 thats when you can't breathe because your diaphragm was crushed, so the lungs won't inflate. People look normal but asphyxiate. This is similar but the lungs work well enough to not die right away and the blood doesn't all drain out.
I like Signs quite a bit. Love the idea of everything in the movie happening for a reason, especially that idea of Morgan having asthma, them forgetting his medicine which means his lungs were closed up and is the reason the poison didn't kill him. Chef's kiss
Yeah! It's really satisfying as a coherent story in a way that most movies fail at nowadays. Even if it makes no sense that these aliens would come to a planet that's 70% water with frequent rainfall 😄
@vanyadolly of course they have the ability of intergalactic travel, but have never encountered water.
The extraterrestrials are more terrifying than ghosts, because they can make strange patterns in the cornfields and lose a few dollars*
@@Tateorsomething I hate this argument. Human history is FILLED with us exploring settings, things and places that are a threat to us in some way, many people often underestimating just how deadly something is to us. For all you know small amounts of moisture are all that existed on their world or something, or they didn't know just HOW toxic water is to them. Then there's the other interpretation, which is that Bo is literally an angel (he tells her that she looked like one), and that the aliens are actually demons sent for the Father to fight to gain his faith back, in which case the water is actually holy water. Either way though, the hurr durr aliens arent that stupid argument is tired and boring because WE'RE that stupid.
@@xavvi WE'RE not capable of intergalactic travel. To be that advanced, I would assume (just an assumption) that they would have encountered water somewhere in the universe. I'm not even hating on the movie, just a question I have. Chill.
Great choice, it was fun watching this with you. I was on deployment in 2003, my last with the Navy after 30 years, on the USS Lincoln. My wife recorded this on a CD and sent it to me. So, one night I was alone in our Air Wing office, turned out the lights and watched it on my laptop. Scared the crap out of me. And, there's a ghost story that goes along with that story that happened a week later in the middle of the night in the passageway outside the same office.
23:59 I've been watching you for years Ashley, that's probably the most genuine full body scream I've ever heard from anyone. Never change ❤
When I tell you my 10 year old self peed a little in the theater when that birthday party scene happened.. That scene altered my brain I swear.
I wasn't even a kid when I saw this the first time a couple years after release, and that scene still gets me.
Came here to say this lol. I was around the same age but it wasn't easy for me to get freaked out by movies. That scene did it though. 😅
A movie you need a diaper for is a damn good movie!
I jumped a mile in my seat at the door scene and was so mad at myself because I saw a flash of it in the movie trailer.
6:25 I was into my 20s when I this movie came out, and that scene scared the hell out of me when I first saw it. Still gives me chills.
What?? 🤷🏽♂️ 🤣🤣
@@Nostalgio Didn't you see the alien on the roof? Look again.
@@gutz1981 had to go back and look, I don't think I ever noticed that!
Covered me in chills too back when it came out in the theaters. I think Ashleigh missed it. I wanted her to rewind it!
I totally forgot about it and was watching her reaction on my TV -- scared the crap out of me 😂
Ashley watching Signs, “is this movie gonna make me cry?!” Me, “YES! Every time.” 😂😭
"now when I say it out loud that don't make no sense," you crack me up Ashleigh, never stop being you
Saw this when I was little. To this day scariest movie I can ever remember seeing. That alien walking across....sheesh.
The scene with the alien walking by traumatized almost everybody back then 😅
"No fuckin' way!" - 😂
i saw this movie in theaters and i'll let you know that the shadows are supposed to be/was a little darker; it was actually really hard to see the alien on the roof, to the point where most people actually missed him, and the one at the birthday party, while still out in daylight, was more of a silhouette with hints of skin texture and color visible around the edges. we could tell he looked a bit greenish, but between the slightly darker darks and how quickly the moment passed, dear god was it effective. that being said, the leg in the field is definitely the stronger scare lol
I was thinking, "What? of copurse you've seen Joaquin Pheonix. ,If not in Joker, then in Gladiator. Of course his performances are so different you might not have recognized him."
Then I check and realize Ashleigh hasn't watched Gladiator!
or,since Ashleigh is a country music fan and even worked at a country radio station,it's possible that she might have seen the Johnny Cash biopic "Walk The Line",or at the very least saw him in promotional photos around the radio station.
To be fair this is Ashleigh we're talking about. It's a miracle if she recognizes actors in different movies at all, even the most obviously recognizable ones.
This movie is such a weird mix of absolutely masterful suspense, unsettling moments, and some absolute bonkers goofiness. Looking at you, recruiting officer guy!
How the Alien just casually walks out at the birthday party but somehow still jolts you! I love that jump scare haha.
Also seems like the Army Recruiter guy is always called creepy by soo many reactor's immediately when he first shows up in the movie. I dunno he's one of my favorite creatures. I love his awkward mannerisms, and the tone and rhythm of how he speaks.
I like how Shamalan kept the tight, isolated feelling by showing every scene basically from the perspective of one or more members of the core family.
I think of scary movie when I watch this now
“Hey, I’m gonna need a ride home”
☠️
I like the slow burn of this movie. I know a lot of people shit on it's shortage of action, and over abundance of exposition, but that's only because small minds can't process the need to 'think' (for themselves) sometimes. 😊
If you want another alien contact film, I highly, HIGHLY recommend Arrival. not only one of my favourite sci-fis, but one of my favs in general. it's a beautiful film with a beautiful message and theme. not a thriller, but very thought-provoking
Yes! Please watch Arrival!
I would love to see Ashley put it together!
Anyone else say “funny you should say that?” When Ashleigh asks what is water going to do to the monster? 😅 5:40
5:44 "There is a monster outside my room, can I have a glass of water?"😢
For me that phrase is up there with "I see dead people..... They don't know they're dead" &" It's time we shake hands". I know there is another major phrase in Signs. But *this* one!!
"Swing away"
@@chris...9497 I know, but the other one is the one that hits you after the movie. Way after.
"it was meant to be." Everyone overlooks these words or think of it in disgust when Ray says it but forget it was also about the last thing his lucid wife said to him before telling Graham "what to do"
@@zvimur Are you the type who sees signs, or is everything just coincidence? Paraphrasing, I don't remember the exact quote.
@@ctbhaley I see signs in Shyamalan's work, because he likes to put them there !😃
You always say you like movies about aliens, but it's always "Please, I don't want to see aliens" at the moment of truth. Also, the little girl who played Bo later played one of your favorite characters on the channel, Olive from Little Miss sunshine.
Fun story, shortly after I first saw this movie, I was walking through my house at night, the only light coming from the kitchen. I suddenly caught sight of a figure standing still, almost perched. I froze momentarily, before realizing that it was a pair of coveralls me dad had hung out.
The thought that Beau was an alien never entered my mind, but I can see how Ashleigh would think that. I just noticed that the news man who was announcing the arrival of all those space ships also played the father of the dead ghost girl in The Sixth Sense.
If you like alien movies, please watch "Fire in the Sky." This movie scared the crap out of me as a kid. It's probably one of the most realistic things to what we think aliens would look like . Plus, alien abduction! You will not be disappointed!!
Great movie
Came here to say that. Based on a true story as well.
@SgtRoninGIS so is Communion which is a fantastic book and movie.
I prefer "Cowboys & Aliens" (2011) starring Daniel Craig and Harrison Ford.
But the best is "John Carter" (2012), roughly the same time period as "Cowboys & Aliens", the 1860s-1880s.
@@chris...9497those are both underrated but great movies. John Carter should have succeeded and i will never understand why it didn't.
The alien at the birthday party thing I thought was SO scary! Creeped me totally out and I loved that that's the way they chose to reveal the alien.
All I can tell you about turning 30 is that I wish I had any concept of just how young I was when I was 30. Celebrate that. Realize you are in the prime of your life. Your 30's and 40's should be the some of the best years of your life.. It's a great time to get into shape and hopefully you've got a few bucks in your pocket.
The reaction in the theaters to the birthday scene was wild. Straight up screams!!!! The knife and the pantry scene too.
The way I said - ASHLEIGH with all your drinks. And I'm working at my home office with 3 empty drinks at the moment. Twin, where have you been lol.
32:50 asthma attacks are brutal on a kid. Basically your throat muscles clench and swell, and constrict your airway - your own neck is strangling you. Medicines for it usually involve relief inhalers that fill a breath with relaxants like salbutamol, to get it to ease off.
Yes, and without his medicine Morgan could barely breathe - that's why the poison didn't get in his lungs to kill him.
Like they say, do you believe in coincidences?
Water is like acid to them but they invade a planet of 70% water. Not to mention summer time in southern PA, the amount of humidity should have destroyed their lungs.
In the nude. Why not have protective suits?
Your scream during the kitchen scene is so validating. People (historically) love to say this movie "isn't even that scary", but this movie fully gave me nightmares for years. Loved your reaction as always ❤
