I assumed OJ wanted to get it on film and use it for financial gain was so he could save his father’s farm. Although I could see how him saving the farm would connect with the idea of honoring his father. Hopefully I’m not misremembering things.
Both could come into play, but I think his father’s tragic death is what drives him more than money. Plus he’s the guy that says “nope” when creepy shit happens😂 making OJ the smartest character in the film.
I think that the shoe was a reference to "the perfect shot" that they were talking about. I think a lot of the movie is also a comment on the Hollywood, or the entertainment industry as well. This movie was such a lovely onion of meanings with so many different layers and subtleties.
Sooo many layers. I’ve heard people go as far as saying Gordy is an Alien. The best thing about this movie is that you could make a valid argument about anything.
Just for clarity, Jupe had been "training" the alien this whole time by feeding it the horses. The first public show was what we saw fail spectacularly. I think it's clear that OJ's motivation was to save his father's farm and confront the thing that killed him. Fuck TMZ guy xD. All the characters were well-written. Fantastic film and your review helps do it justice.
This has nothing to do with the video essay but the first picture of Peele eating the pineapple is a hilarious skit. I just watched the continental Breakfast skit today.
Though the themes between the chimp and the alien are very creative and similar I still wish they could have at least substantially try to connect the two story lines
Great constructive and critical review. This film opens a lot of doors for in depth conversation. Also, it made me look up a bunch of old chimpanzee television shows....so there's that.
In my opinion, I think she memorized the speech to express how much she idolized her father, and most importantly longed for the relationship her brother had with him. That’s my guess.

a pineapple?!

I can understand that, they almost feel like two separate films.
@@BillGriff1 yea the story of the chimp as a horror film alone would be cool
i watched this film twice in theaters and I know I didn’t get everything that Peele packed into this movie. So glad yt recommended your video to me!
Thanks for watching Maggie! glad I was able to help :)
Watched this today in a cold empty cinema, defo made it more creepy🤣great video as always man!!
I’m glad Lucky survived, he is indeed in a literal and metaphorical sense, lucky as fuck
I think the chip was an added example of the film’s commentary on animal rights but that’s just my opinion
Animal rights definitely play a part in human greed. I completely agree with your opinion
Excellent analysis my guy! Interesting stuff!
Thank you for watching :)
@@BillGriff1 Gotchu brotha
I hope you make a video on next months Long Legs
The phrase "money don't fall from the sky" is used tobdescribe the lazy and greedy. How did the dad die?
I've never heard this phrase before but it makes complete sense. 👌
A coin fell from the sky to his left eye

Thank you for watching Spaghet! were there any references to real tv chimp attacks in history?
I'm gonna watch this movie until I'm aware of the significance of 6:13. Or someone can just tell me, but it's driving me crazy
