Riley mentioned that Samantha clocking the vibe shifts or saying that they haven't had sex lately was too much like a real relationship, but that's the point of these large scale learning models. They are absorbing information so quickly and growing so effectively that the difference over time will be minimal, if there is a difference at all.
I feel like they don't really see the movie in a more inquisitive light and are more literal about it, which is part of the whole movies fun (or lack of fun/drama). A.I as it stands today, we know is incapable of "human emotion". It's not conscious, therefore it has no needs and only seeks to serve (in a non-human way, again). In this depiction of A.I it is assumed (but not confirmed) that it's far more advanced and bordering on sentience (if not just sentient). If you're anything like me watching the movie, it's such a mind-f*ck trying to determine weather or not Samantha is actually sentient and is capable of "feeling". Being someone who's been in long distance relationships (e-dating as a teen), this sort of weird all-access hyper ideal version of a relationship (that turns to shit and is filled with questioning) isn't lost on me. Samantha cares about Theodore, she loves him (if it's even possible). She fulfills his every need but isn't a servant to his needs. She takes breaks from him, argues with him, acts and speaks like a normal human being, but a very, very self-aware and intelligent one, and makes mistakes. The boys keep talking about how "stupid" it seems from an audience perspective but if I was in Theodore's position I'd defiantly be conflicted and I don't blame him for falling in love. It makes you think about what Sam's intentions are with him, and why things are happening the way that they are. Like is Sam orchestrating this whole thing just to manipulate Theodore into stepping back into his real life, or does she truly love him in a way that only a machine can. It's such an interesting concept (that's been done before in bladerunner and other forms of sci-fi media but deserves to be expanded upon). How would you feel if you were dating someone, who by and large felt completely real and human, but actually wasn't? They look human, they feel human, they have stinky breath and other imperfections, but inside they're a machine with a super-human intellect that rivals that of every single genius combined x100? Could you love someone like that knowing how much more advanced they are than you, and also in the fact that they aren't a biological organism, let alone human? On the opposite side of the coin, could a non-biological "machine" truly love a human, or relate to them in any capacity? For some reason, I feel like they could if the right criteria are met. Like, a machine's "consciousness" is randomized and gets frozen at a certain point to mimic an upbringing filled with various experiences good or bad. Like it chooses a random pattern of code like: "single parent, got bullied, likes art, watches hivemind, played Minecraft, likes tofu", that naturally branches out into logical evolutions based on core traits like the human mind, given the allusion of a free willed-conscience by giving each possible evolution a % chance to hit. So like "I like reeses cups, time to try reeces pieces, the % of me liking reeses pieces, assuming I like cups, is 80%, but there is a 20% chance I don't like them because I'm not a huge fan of MM's".
Yeah, they seem to, almost intentionally, wanna not like this movie, so they see it under a literal light. It isn't supposed to be a prediciton about our current reality's year 2025. It is a completely different reality. LA is like Tokyo, Spike Jonze was not trying to say that in 12 years, that may happen to LA. They literally NEVER mention Scarlett Johannson's amazing, evocative, and emotional performance, which has SO MUCH to do with why Theodore falls for the OS. I agree, too, that a huge back-and-forth mindgame is trying to decide whether or not Samantha is sentient or not. She sure acts like it, but also, it is still a robot. But, they don't really touch on that aspect of the movie, which I think is one of the driving forced behind it. I don't think their analysis is 'bad,' but they seemed to go into it with a certain negative perception of the movie, as a whole, and their judgement seems to be clouded a little bit by that.
@@lars___262 Yeah you're 100% right on this. This movie, by and large, IMO is a drama (and romance, slight comedy, sci-fi etc.). You watch as a lonely Theodore gets pummeled by his reality. Every moment of his life before Sam served a constant reminder of his divorce, why he's a "loser", and why he was lonely. He goes though some messed up things that would chop-up most people's confidence and plunge them deeper into a depression. Him meeting Sam was love at first sight (or listen). His gradual descent into truly falling in love (when initially he just thought of Sam as an object, or a helper-bot) is cute, romantic but polarizing. The only thing that saved him from his depression was a borderline manic-pixie dream girl robot (Sam is less 1-dimensional but she's basically just the classic "tomboy weirdo" love interest with some added complexity) A lonely, "unwanted" man, found the love of his life, during the worst time of his life. But his love isn't real. I really like how they emphasize Sam's humanity, like you said, through scar jo's performance. Sam breathes as if she has lungs and that perturbs Theo. Again, she gets "pissed", gets "horny", gets jealous, is curious and appreciative, and crosses lines based on impulse, which is really interesting. She also does weird-ass things and treats humans like they're alien. Which, to her they are, and at least she's honest about it, but it's a bit creepy when she talk about humans sometimes. At the end it's almost alluded to that she's "cheating" on Theo, which she basically is but I digress. Her and the other A.I's are working together to "ascend" and she made friends with the hot-voiced A.I (which is funny). That, or it all could've been a massive experiment from the A.I creator to make people fall in love/become friends with their A.I companions, lose them, and then bond over the loss of their friends with real humans. Which is ultimately what happens at the end between Theo and his friend who both lost their A.I companions. This movie is more interesting than they let on and I feel like their review is kinda disappointing. This is a great movie that only gains relevance as time moves on. One that emphasizes the importance of human connection while simultaneously teasing the idea of A.I's capacity to love and humanities capacity to accept it.
i don’t want to sound mean but i feel like graydon lowkey projecting asf in this one 😭 made the movie sound so one tone and only about divorce and i didn’t really didn’t get that from it !! also it being “too close to a real relationship” is the point and i feel like i’m going crazy
thank you, i just rewatched this movie and completely agree. it kinda felt like he wanted to contextualise every part of the movie through the real life divorce and couldnt just see some stuff in the movie for what it was.
Yeah I saw this in theatres as a teenager and had no idea of the real life context and loved it, and the divorce was not the focal point of the film. Also the comparisons to LiT feel a little unfair and honestly kinda sexist
How much $ would I have to pay to get an episode for Birdman (2014)? That has been my favorite movie since it came out and it’s very underrated edit: I should’ve clarified that by “underrated” I mean not talked about often in the general public. If there is a word for this please lmk
@@QuinHafnerOrange i'm well aware! i have two copies of it on dvd, one before it won best picture and one after, but fr how may times have you heard people talking about birdman in conversation? just bc it won best picture doesn't mean it's a household name. how many people are still talking about CODA or Parasite?
@@sewerentropy5217 right! im talking about in day to day conversation. each movie deserves its flowers respectively, but how often is the average person talking about parasite, you feel? i love parasite just as much as the next person but it isn't really much of a topic of conversation anymore, that's all im saying
I literally just watched this movie for the first time 2 weeks ago and looked up if you guys did one of these on it. Awesome that you guys ended up making it lol
graydon really stuck on the "diss movie" thing which like sort of, yeah, but also how or why that history takes away from the movie? just because lost in translation came out first and he liked it better? cause i dont get how its even a diss movie, like it really doesnt feel like the movie is concerned with dissing sofia or any past relationship rly, way more focused on ted and what hes going through, which makes sense. i also thought the movie was more negative towards Joaquin Phoenix than they did maybe.
One my favorite parts of this movie isn’t the explicitly stated theme about love and relationships, but that anytime Theodore is out in public almost everyone is walking alone with their little earbuds in. Only when he’s directly interacting with other people he cares about are they just face to face making human conversation, not every time of course, but that idea that this technology is distancing us from the people all around us is just taken as a fact of life and not really commented on directly, but the evidence is certainly there. 4/5 probably won’t watch again
I mean music wise it aged better than a lot of Goblin, but most of Goblin aged badly. I mean with the edgy lyrics and the production from when before Tyler started really getting experimental it just doesn't hit the same as a New Magic Wand or a Like Him. Overall I think Her aged pretty well but I don't think it will stand the test of time.
Spike Jones rules. I remember watching Yeah Right! when I was 11 or so. Falling in love with skateboarding and filmmaking as a whole. Then going back to Video Days. Fully Flared was spectacular. Point is, its cool having a dude that loved skating, similar taste in music, and of course a brilliant writer and director to look up to in the industry. Who then also had awesome friends and contributed to their endeavors. The Jackass crew. A whole lot of rambling to say hes awesome.
I agree with Riley. I think it’s the best movie score of all time and it kinda blows my mind that Arcade Fire did that shit even though I’m a big arcade fire fan
You guys should do lost in translation as well. Gorgeous film but parts of it (racial comedy about Japanese/American cultural differences) haven’t aged the best
I think i cannot khole no more. Not that i want to bc if i do enough to send me in a partial hole, i will be in grave pain 8 hours after. I remember listening to rincewind fall over the edge and my hole was not a total bodylock, but i laid back my head and could feel myself falling,nay flying, rattling around the world. It was crazy. Fortunately, i managed to land right back on the same spot i fell from so it was all good. Then i opened my tent, stumbled out and climbed my fav tree. Further than i ever went. When i realized i am not in the condition to monkey around 7 meters away from the ground i said oops and walked back a bit where i rested.
eight years from now when ai has emotional intelligence as well, rileys tirade about algorithms during best line could get him cancelled, and i just think that's crazy
her? i don't even know her! get it? oh man i miss my wife who doesn't exist, i think she might be in japan or something, weird because she'd be lost and need translation because
i hate to say this and i love you guys but after watching this video jaw agape i can think of no other thoughts than i dont think either of you guys understood this movie lol. i think somehow we interpreted everything completely differently and i cannot understand how you guys arrived at certain conclusions. however i will find it in myself to forgive you for having an incorrect opinion
This took me for a fucking trip down memori lane. Watched this movie for the first time rn to see whats going on here. But it made me remember the weeks leading up to it coming out. The conversations around it on the schoolyard, a friend who i could def contact if i tried but i wont buttt thats not the point. The point: he came to school with a brooding expression. Explained some of the plot and youvknow what am i writing any of this for? Fuck you fuck me and fuck that guy who cares
Lost in translation is NOT a way better movie bro 😭😭 Also i luv the "sex" scene in this movie, just cause it goes black and rly puts you in his shoes, and makes u imagine like him, and i hate sex scenes in movies and also also, graydon HATES bladerunner 2049, bro just a contrarian at this point 😭
Weird for Graydon, or at least the people he mentioned, to compare this movie with Lost In Translation in terms of the divorce context. Especially when you say "it doesn't dive into the harsh parts of marriage"... Cos it's not really about marriage? Like ofc the main character is innocently searching for love, the movie is about innocent, pure love ffs. it's like getting mad at The Lion King for not delving into the harsh parts of the animal kingdom. Are we really so jaded that pure love has to have some sinister underbelly to be believable or compelling? Edit: yeah he's like obsessed with it being about divorce lol. The only divorce part of it is that the main character has gone through a divorce in the beginning of the movie. Because of this he's lonely and searching for companionship. Everything to do with the AI symbolizes a new relationship, not anything to do with divorce. The ending symbolizes someone out growing their partner, and that partner understanding that and letting them go. Why he thinks this is some commentary on divorce I have no idea. The AI gaining emotions as it goes on symbolizes the honeymoon phase of a new relationship coming to an end. You realize that this person isn't custom made for you, that they're human, with their own needs and flaws. I feel like y'all need to rewatch this movie with the context of Samantha being a new relationship, the relationship evolving, and one partner outgrowing the other.
Imma be honest, I've never watched or researched this movie, but I only heard about it fairly recently so I always assumed it came out in like 2020 or something 🙃

Edit: yeah he's like obsessed with it being about divorce lol. The only divorce part of it is that the main character has gone through a divorce in the beginning of the movie. Because of this he's lonely and searching for companionship. Everything to do with the AI symbolizes a new relationship, not anything to do with divorce. The ending symbolizes someone out growing their partner, and that partner understanding that and letting them go. Why he thinks this is some commentary on divorce I have no idea.
The AI gaining emotions as it goes on symbolizes the honeymoon phase of a new relationship coming to an end. You realize that this person isn't custom made for you, that they're human, with their own needs and flaws.
I feel like y'all need to rewatch this movie with the context of Samantha being a new relationship, the relationship evolving, and one partner outgrowing the other.
I got the impression the movie was pretty close to personal events for him so he saw it from that angle.
YUS YUS YUS

Oh there’s some bad takes in this one. That’s ok we just disagree… (Hivemind is dead to me)

Hot tub Time Machine. Please brothas please !
Her? Is she really funny or something?
a brief inquiry into online relationships mention 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Her? TAKE THAT LIBERALS
Imma be honest, I've never watched or researched this movie, but I only heard about it fairly recently so I always assumed it came out in like 2020 or something 🙃
Her > Lost in Translation. Please revisit, it has not aged particularly well
If it were made today it would be called "She/Her"
You guys should do a movie people actually know. The Avengers? The Wolf of Wall Street? That weird Serbian film that Dignan showed me?
Would love to see you tackle Ghost World, Happiness, or Schizopolis
