I thought that Roy was human but his eyes glowed when Alton communicated with him from the other dimension. Maybe Alton was letting his dad know he was okay since his dad was the one who said he would always worry about him.

Here's a different explanation for the ending. It was just a 'reflection' in the father's eyes, so he was seeing Alton, and Alton shined light at him. This tells us that Alton didn't die, and is looking back through from the other dimension, thanking his dad. For the father, this means his sacrifice was worthwhile as he did save his son. I don't think the father has these abilities, he is more like 'Joseph' but he knew his son was special so he supported him away from the cult, to the destination location. Because the boy was the first person to be able to join the spirit dimension, he can now help humankind The dimension containing the light spirits is probably where human cultures had got the concepts for the 'gods' and 'angels' What do you reckon foundflix?

That’s pretty ignorant considering that as a Christian your life wouldn’t mean much if your belief system was disproved! Imagine being raised to believe in 👽‘s! Whose to say what is true and what isn’t! It’s all about Faith!
Alton said that "they" have been watching us for a very long time......is it possible that Alton's father could be one of those watchers, existing in a physical form like Alton is, and he is simply guiding Alton back to where he belongs? Where they BOTH belong? Because......how could an interdimensional being "accidently" be born into our dimension when he belongs in the other one? Like you said, genes and bloodlines. His parents, or at least his father, belongs there too. The only information we have about the father is that he and Lucas were friends before his parents took him to the Ranch. But on the Ranch, there were no images or icons of any kind of Christian denomination (crosses, portraits, altars, etc.). There aren't even any (visible) shrines or dedications to Alton, who they claim is their "savior". Could it be that the people of this Ranch were harboring these beings like Alton for generations? Why did the pastor, a very minor character, need to adopt Alton two years prior? That seems like a very significant story point. What part has the Ranch played for all these years? It didn't spring up around Alton, it's been there for decades. Also, it is notable that hundreds, possibly thousands or tens of thousands or more people saw the buildings in the other dimension. So it wasn't an isolated incident and it couldn't possibly be covered up by anyone. It changed the way of life for the entire human race for the rest of the future. And the Ranch citizens said during their interviews that Alton was their salvation. So is it possible that there were others like Alton (to a much lesser degree of power), or people of mixed blood like his father, who were supposed to go into the other dimension also? We could also talk about ancient history and prophecy like you did in the video. They are an ancient race that advanced and evolved beyond us. You could link this to ancient alien threads, but also include the idea that the Bible, Quran, and other ancient religious texts talk about advanced "heavenly" races breeding with humans, and similarly in the Bible, it says there will be a New Jerusalem and a New Heaven and New Earth and that only certain "special people" will be allowed in to parts of it. Because now, the rest of the planet and humanity forever indisputably know that there is life beyond this, our mortal coil, basically undoing all of the established religions and institutions we know. So there are is literally a new idea of Heaven and Earth. OR maybe......since his father witnessed this new world and in a way lives in both of them (by proxy of Alton), is he starting to advance beyond mundane humanity and is evolving into the new humanity that he saw with his own eyes and was inspired in him by his son? Same with Lucas and Alton's mother. Their faith was rewarded, now Lucas is a prisoner and Sarah is a fugitive, but they are both at peace with the new direction their lives are going in because they saw and felt what they needed to see and feel in order to grow and evolve into a better form of human. Or what if his glowing eyes was just an artistic way of expressing the love and connection a father has with his son? I think I should go to bed now...
Very well put and explained. Those are awesome theories and I agreed and thought the same in everything you said. The film has many messages and ideas but I tend to lean more toward the anti religious spiritual metaphors because of interviews of the director himself saying he is very spiritual.
Or, could be that the mother was a slut and when some other dimension dude sneaked out in this world for fun at a bar, altons mom slept with him,. Regarding the glow in Roy, altons fathers eyes at the very end, I' 100%sure that he just saw the evolved glowing people in the distance and knowing that his son has reached where he belongs and is safe, he gives a pleasant smile.. only if he knew that it wasnt his son and just a bastard. SIgh,,
Nicholas Scott I think the Ranch is just used as a conduit to get the point across that the story is a spiritual metaphor. The absence of "concrete" symbols keeps the movie free so that you can view it from a spiritual level. The light is God. This other world is a type of heaven. The father has hope. Imo, it's analogous to someone dying (the son) and yet knowing (the father knowing) they are still there in another dimension. Very Biblical in its constant use of light.
I find it interesting how well your opening fits with this movie. And how meta it was. You completely broke the fourth wall in so many ways. "I can now show you the secrets of the universe." Then you proceed to break it again with the help of the monitors. "Thats impressive!" Because we don't fully understand how you're doing these things. Which plays a part in this movie.

Hmm.. possible theory.... Roy and (Dunst's Character) are both descendants of the ancient Race and Alton has the powers from their combined bloodlines (Recessive Genes that have birthed Alton into a greater power then either of his parents could have). In the end Roy's exposure to his sons strength has woken up his own (although weak) powers/abilities.

Am I the only one who got a Heaven vibe? Their world is built on top, so it's a higher plane. They watch humans, just like angels watch over us. And to cap it off, angels are often depicted as glowing like stars (one of the angels in particular is all about the light).

I honestly thought that your intro was part of the movie, and that Alton was grown up for a part of the movie and was able to like break the 4th wall and see the other movies the actors were in or something 😂😂😂 I have been googling “I will only speak to Kylo Ren” trying to figure out why he would give Kylo Ren a shout out in this movie 😂

I know this movie is old, but I thoroughly enjoyed it and did not expect the ending. I also liked how we were "dropped" into the middle of what was going on with Alton and his situation. Although I was expecting a flashback, I realized towards the end, I didn't need it. Refreshing.
Heh heh heh. A message from the future, it is now 2023. Movie is even older, but I had never even heard about it till this channel. I loved it. Unfortunately, there is still no part II ,
I watched this film yesterday, and I really enjoyed it. I missed the dad's eyes glowing at the end, though. Well spotted. It adds a different slant to the film.

I really enjoyed the time taken into the intro of this video :). Thank you for what you give to the community and know that people are very appreciative of your work.
I believe they were spirits in the 4th & 5th dimension. When the kid said " they have been watching us for a very long time" meaning they are here but not here. Dimensional.
It could literally mean anything. And "Very Long time" is relative, they could of just been watching his family since the kid was born. Also, as the plot hole is so massive there would be nothing stoping us from saying that they were all just on drugs. And even if they were extra dimensional beings what reason do they have to pull the kid away from his famaily? ..........Stranger danger.
The only thing I could think of , is them wanting to take the kid away from his family because of the way he is. Well in this type of research that I've done, it is ongoing research that species and spirits are still trying to figure out, is how to make the human body immortal using spirit and body. Meaning the kid was probably going to still be experimented on, even in that dimension. So he was probably never actually safe but more on a different level than the Gov. doing it... I think I worded that right..
Trey Spells see the thing I think they meant with “they have been watching us for a very long time” is that it is dimensional because the fourth dimension is time after all so what he could mean is that these same people could have been watching us for millions of years and that’s what started the religions revolving around heaven god and other more advanced beings this could just be the bi product of this civilization dropping by every few thousand years
@@daijurin4905 not really,the fourth dimension isn't time,time is another kind of dimension,there are temporal dimensions,and spacial dimensions,those beings were from the 4th spacial dimension,which actually makes sense,since they have built their civilization on top of ours,and they have an entire new spacial dimension that we can't see to do that to make it simple,image a plane,a 2D surface,where beings can only move in two direction,they could also build cities of their own,but 2D cities,and we as 3D beings,we could literally build an entire civilization on top of their 2D surface,and they would never know,the same is with us and these creatures

Ley lines are supposed to be the enrgy fields of the world. The Chinese called them dragon lines, The irish the straight tracks, the native americans called them mothers way. It is a very old theory. And surprisingly enough large population centers and sacred sights tend to be built on the points where the leylines connect.
At the very end of the movie when Alton's dad is at the prison looking at the sun his eyes slightly light up and then return back to normal. Alton's dad is one of the people from the other dimension. This is why Alton has his powers because he's half human half other dimensional being.
OR Maybe he just saw the glowing evolved people in the distance for a brief moment.. Knowing his son is safe and where he belongs,, he gave a pleasant satisfied smile..
Seamus McCloud his eyes did not light up except the typical reflection from looking toward the sun, which is light. Where did anyone come up with the dad's eyes glowing? You're missing the point. The dad is looking "into the light", knowing his son is there. This is a spiritual metaphor. The cult is there to get the point across of the spiritual significance.
knowledgetracker Whoa dude you are really trying to make your point across. It was just a theory because it looked like his eyes lit up like Alton's which would make sense considering how, ya know, Alton's like half other dimensional being. You did make a good point though but next time, don't sound duchy when trying to make your point across.
Thank you for your video. Midnight Special was an especially good movie (for syfy), it had you captivated from the start, kept you engaged throughout (who's good, who's bad) and left you thinking when it was over, mulling over what actually just happened. Excellent movie!
The scene where the grass starts “yellowing” all around him.... My take on that.... Alton was dehydrated and in desperate need of water. His hands were placed on the grass; so, I think he was drawing the surrounding moisture from the grass and absorbing it through his palms. Dried-out grass turns yellow, right?
I ran out of internet yesterday so I watched a movie that I downloaded 3 years ago. It’s called “I Origins”. In the middle of the movie a girl says “if worms only have two senses (smell and touch) they only knows darkness, they just can’t understand the concept of light. But not because they can’t perceive it means it doesn’t exist”. She actually didn’t say that exactly but that was the metaphor behind. Now, the next day I decide to watch another movie. I came up with this title “Midnight Special” and I had no clue what this is about. I still can’t believe the relation between these 2 movies.
Thank you for the go see the movie message. Will be doing that before this video...and now to switch to another ending explained for something I'm curious about, but not an hour and a half worth of curious :) This chanel has really helped me clear my netflix list.
OMG, I knew his eyes glowed at the end, but my family didn't believe me, thanks for this video, now I can prove myself right. This movie was the best, I wish I will live enough to see that futuristic city in real life!

Finally got the chance to watch this movie and, even though I had watched your video on it about a year prior to seeing it, it was such a good movie! I'm really glad I watched it.
Searching for interpretations of the movie brought up lots of “The Midnight Special” and snapped me back to the 70’s and my teen years full of fantastic live music. 💕🐝💕🎶
I suspect that the 'others' and Alton are more a reference to transcendence or realization of further human potential - consider the mythologies about the Mayan cultures 'vanishing' sometimes attributed to a transcendence . Alton is born (human) with a natural ability to transcend and therefore is able to show humanity the potential which his father is then, at the end, shown to begin realizing. This fits with the allegory in the film of the importance of parents being willing to support and release their children to express their own natural potentials rather than making them into what they (the parents or culture) want them to be. I feel this film should have come with a warning label - Watch Multiple Times! Though I truly enjoyed the first watch I found it to be a deeply textured work and feel I gained full appreciation once I'd watched it more than once. Beautiful if you let yourself connect emotionally! I feel a little saddened that some have described Midnight Special as emotionally flat - perhaps with all the big special effects movies now days we have grown too used to obvious, simplistic expression of emotion.
Oh - and the grass dies (not ripples), it can be seen again around the father's feet when he carries Alton out to the sunrise AND it looks like the father is in distress because Alton is drawing on his energy too before the sun comes up.
LOL - took me a little while to see it too! I didn't pick up that the ground broke along ley lines - pretty cool! I think I was the 'light beings' that guided Alton to the cave though (so not ley lines there) also I assume it would have been them that provided the March 6th date to Alton. Lastly it's a salt water marsh land not wheat fields.

Wouldn't it be cool if this was the start of a series of the dad visiting the other world? A start to the series similar to Wanda Vision There are sooo many directions this could branch into.
He's most likely from there . I noticed that during the whole movie he didn't even put a bullet proof vest on . I might have to rewatch but I think the dad used abilities without it being obvious.
I'm Really late to the party. Saw THE BIKERIDERS a few weeks ago, and have since watched 5 more of Jeff's films, with M/S today. First, as universally agreed, your Opening was a hoot! The film was everything I've come to expect with Jeff Nichols: creative writing, excellent acting, beautiful visuals, powerful sound and a moving musical score. It's a crime that this film LOST money during its release. Oh well, there is no accounting for taste.
Hey, idk if you’re into musicals, but if you are, there’s a series on UA-cam by Starkid. The first part is The Guy Who Didn’t Like Musicals. That makes sense (ish). Part two is Black Friday. It makes less sense, but still enough. Where I’m confused, is: How do the six episodes following those two movies fit in. They’re called Nightmare Time, and I’m just not sure if they’re all dead and being reanimated, if it’s like Gravity Falls, the Treehouse Of Horror, or something else. I mean, Paul and Emma go from meeting to getting married, implying it’s a single timeline, but they keep dying, also...
It was more like a glowing reflection, along with a sound. You can even see it in this guys explanation, where he shows the dad looking out towards the sunrise from the prison.
J BS yeah, I agree. No glowing eyes except from sun reflection. He's looking out with hope because he knows there's another world and his son is there.

Here's a different explanation for the ending.
It was just a 'reflection' in the father's eyes, so he was seeing Alton, and Alton shined light at him. This tells us that Alton didn't die, and is looking back through from the other dimension, thanking his dad.
For the father, this means his sacrifice was worthwhile as he did save his son. I don't think the father has these abilities, he is more like 'Joseph' but he knew his son was special so he supported him away from the cult, to the destination location.
Because the boy was the first person to be able to join the spirit dimension, he can now help humankind
The dimension containing the light spirits is probably where human cultures had got the concepts for the 'gods' and 'angels'

So is it possible that there were others like Alton (to a much lesser degree of power), or people of mixed blood like his father, who were supposed to go into the other dimension also?
We could also talk about ancient history and prophecy like you did in the video. They are an ancient race that advanced and evolved beyond us. You could link this to ancient alien threads, but also include the idea that the Bible, Quran, and other ancient religious texts talk about advanced "heavenly" races breeding with humans, and similarly in the Bible, it says there will be a New Jerusalem and a New Heaven and New Earth and that only certain "special people" will be allowed in to parts of it. Because now, the rest of the planet and humanity forever indisputably know that there is life beyond this, our mortal coil, basically undoing all of the established religions and institutions we know. So there are is literally a new idea of Heaven and Earth.
OR maybe......since his father witnessed this new world and in a way lives in both of them (by proxy of Alton), is he starting to advance beyond mundane humanity and is evolving into the new humanity that he saw with his own eyes and was inspired in him by his son? Same with Lucas and Alton's mother. Their faith was rewarded, now Lucas is a prisoner and Sarah is a fugitive, but they are both at peace with the new direction their lives are going in because they saw and felt what they needed to see and feel in order to grow and evolve into a better form of human.
Or what if his glowing eyes was just an artistic way of expressing the love and connection a father has with his son?
I think I should go to bed now...
Very well put and explained. Those are awesome theories and I agreed and thought the same in everything you said. The film has many messages and ideas but I tend to lean more toward the anti religious spiritual metaphors because of interviews of the director himself saying he is very spiritual.
Or, could be that the mother was a slut and when some other dimension dude sneaked out in this world for fun at a bar, altons mom slept with him,. Regarding the glow in Roy, altons fathers eyes at the very end, I' 100%sure that he just saw the evolved glowing people in the distance and knowing that his son has reached where he belongs and is safe, he gives a pleasant smile.. only if he knew that it wasnt his son and just a bastard. SIgh,,
Nicholas Scott I think the Ranch is just used as a conduit to get the point across that the story is a spiritual metaphor. The absence of "concrete" symbols keeps the movie free so that you can view it from a spiritual level. The light is God. This other world is a type of heaven. The father has hope. Imo, it's analogous to someone dying (the son) and yet knowing (the father knowing) they are still there in another dimension. Very Biblical in its constant use of light.
Nicholas Scott Tooooo Long! but good 😉
Jesus Christ that's a long comment
I find it interesting how well your opening fits with this movie. And how meta it was. You completely broke the fourth wall in so many ways. "I can now show you the secrets of the universe." Then you proceed to break it again with the help of the monitors. "Thats impressive!" Because we don't fully understand how you're doing these things. Which plays a part in this movie.
Don't be sad this film speaks about a part of my life. It 's based on true story. I 'm 55 years old and French. I saw it by chance 4 years ago. There are lots of details on my life.

WoW! I missed the "eye glimmer" at the end of the movie. Really good movie though.
Hmm.. possible theory.... Roy and (Dunst's Character) are both descendants of the ancient Race and Alton has the powers from their combined bloodlines (Recessive Genes that have birthed Alton into a greater power then either of his parents could have). In the end Roy's exposure to his sons strength has woken up his own (although weak) powers/abilities.

Am I the only one who got a Heaven vibe? Their world is built on top, so it's a higher plane. They watch humans, just like angels watch over us. And to cap it off, angels are often depicted as glowing like stars (one of the angels in particular is all about the light).
yea, it reminded me of like the rapture and stuff.

I honestly thought that your intro was part of the movie, and that Alton was grown up for a part of the movie and was able to like break the 4th wall and see the other movies the actors were in or something 😂😂😂 I have been googling “I will only speak to Kylo Ren” trying to figure out why he would give Kylo Ren a shout out in this movie 😂

Kylo Ren is really channeling Jeff Golblom in this movie.
I know this movie is old, but I thoroughly enjoyed it and did not expect the ending.
I also liked how we were "dropped" into the middle of what was going on with Alton and his situation.
Although I was expecting a flashback, I realized towards the end, I didn't need it. Refreshing.
Heh heh heh. A message from the future, it is now 2023. Movie is even older, but I had never even heard about it till this channel. I loved it. Unfortunately, there is still no part II ,
This is a great channel!! Lucky I found it. Is it new? You seem very knowledgeable
Lucky you! Glad you found me. 😃 Channel is pretty new. Started in Oct last year but really only started doing consistent videos in March or so
I watched this film yesterday, and I really enjoyed it. I missed the dad's eyes glowing at the end, though. Well spotted. It adds a different slant to the film.
Knowledgeable is not a word I'd use. He did get the name of Kirsten Dunst wrong, and didn't notice when editing. I think he could benefit from fact checking.

Has anyone realized that the boy from "Midnight Special" is just like the M83 Music Video(s) Midnight City/Reunion etc?
that's why I clicked this video.
Lols4you! SAME SAME SAAAMMEEE
And found flix too😂
There is a lot of similarities between the music video and the movie... Maybe this is a prologue to the music video? :o
i noticed that
i love that song...
"The son of Zod"
I believe they were spirits in the 4th & 5th dimension. When the kid said " they have been watching us for a very long time" meaning they are here but not here. Dimensional.
It could literally mean anything. And "Very Long time" is relative, they could of just been watching his family since the kid was born. Also, as the plot hole is so massive there would be nothing stoping us from saying that they were all just on drugs. And even if they were extra dimensional beings what reason do they have to pull the kid away from his famaily? ..........Stranger danger.
The only thing I could think of , is them wanting to take the kid away from his family because of the way he is. Well in this type of research that I've done, it is ongoing research that species and spirits are still trying to figure out, is how to make the human body immortal using spirit and body. Meaning the kid was probably going to still be experimented on, even in that dimension. So he was probably never actually safe but more on a different level than the Gov. doing it...
I think I worded that right..
Trey Spells see the thing I think they meant with “they have been watching us for a very long time” is that it is dimensional because the fourth dimension is time after all so what he could mean is that these same people could have been watching us for millions of years and that’s what started the religions revolving around heaven god and other more advanced beings this could just be the bi product of this civilization dropping by every few thousand years
@@daijurin4905 not really,the fourth dimension isn't time,time is another kind of dimension,there are temporal dimensions,and spacial dimensions,those beings were from the 4th spacial dimension,which actually makes sense,since they have built their civilization on top of ours,and they have an entire new spacial dimension that we can't see to do that
to make it simple,image a plane,a 2D surface,where beings can only move in two direction,they could also build cities of their own,but 2D cities,and we as 3D beings,we could literally build an entire civilization on top of their 2D surface,and they would never know,the same is with us and these creatures

dude i love those intro skits you do. they may be corny and a few cheesy jokes but still top tier
Ley lines are supposed to be the enrgy fields of the world. The Chinese called them dragon lines, The irish the straight tracks, the native americans called them mothers way. It is a very old theory. And surprisingly enough large population centers and sacred sights tend to be built on the points where the leylines connect.
The opening sequince makes me think of '' It is wensday my dudes''
At the very end of the movie when Alton's dad is at the prison looking at the sun his eyes slightly light up and then return back to normal. Alton's dad is one of the people from the other dimension. This is why Alton has his powers because he's half human half other dimensional being.
Or his evolutional progression could only go so far, while Altons was in the hight to be considered one of them.
J BS that too
OR Maybe he just saw the glowing evolved people in the distance for a brief moment.. Knowing his son is safe and where he belongs,, he gave a pleasant satisfied smile..
Seamus McCloud his eyes did not light up except the typical reflection from looking toward the sun, which is light. Where did anyone come up with the dad's eyes glowing? You're missing the point. The dad is looking "into the light", knowing his son is there. This is a spiritual metaphor. The cult is there to get the point across of the spiritual significance.
knowledgetracker Whoa dude you are really trying to make your point across. It was just a theory because it looked like his eyes lit up like Alton's which would make sense considering how, ya know, Alton's like half other dimensional being. You did make a good point though but next time, don't sound duchy when trying to make your point across.
Thank you for your video. Midnight Special was an especially good movie (for syfy), it had you captivated from the start, kept you engaged throughout (who's good, who's bad) and left you thinking when it was over, mulling over what actually just happened. Excellent movie!
do you want to know the real story ?
It's basically a parallel world.
The scene where the grass starts “yellowing” all around him.... My take on that.... Alton was dehydrated and in desperate need of water. His hands were placed on the grass; so, I think he was drawing the surrounding moisture from the grass and absorbing it through his palms. Dried-out grass turns yellow, right?
That makes sense!
Or the father was punished and sent here
probably...
yes
Or he's more evolved than the average human, and his son is the first human to reach that "other" level, but the rest of us are generations behind.
Or the light beings are us in the future and they are using the boy and the dad to facilitate a "crossing" from the 3rd to the 4th density.

Jesus christ what happened here
0:15 OH MY GOD. That's AMAZING.
I ran out of internet yesterday so I watched a movie that I downloaded 3 years ago. It’s called “I Origins”. In the middle of the movie a girl says “if worms only have two senses (smell and touch) they only knows darkness, they just can’t understand the concept of light. But not because they can’t perceive it means it doesn’t exist”. She actually didn’t say that exactly but that was the metaphor behind.
Now, the next day I decide to watch another movie. I came up with this title “Midnight Special” and I had no clue what this is about. I still can’t believe the relation between these 2 movies.
LOL. Nice job on the intro.
Thank you for the go see the movie message. Will be doing that before this video...and now to switch to another ending explained for something I'm curious about, but not an hour and a half worth of curious :)
This chanel has really helped me clear my netflix list.
OMG, I knew his eyes glowed at the end, but my family didn't believe me, thanks for this video, now I can prove myself right.
This movie was the best, I wish I will live enough to see that futuristic city in real life!

Searching for interpretations of the movie brought up lots of “The Midnight Special” and snapped me back to the 70’s and my teen years full of fantastic live music. 💕🐝💕🎶
watch the next movie from the adapattion of "the Institute" by Stephen King
I suspect that the 'others' and Alton are more a reference to transcendence or realization of further human potential - consider the mythologies about the Mayan cultures 'vanishing' sometimes attributed to a transcendence . Alton is born (human) with a natural ability to transcend and therefore is able to show humanity the potential which his father is then, at the end, shown to begin realizing. This fits with the allegory in the film of the importance of parents being willing to support and release their children to express their own natural potentials rather than making them into what they (the parents or culture) want them to be.
I feel this film should have come with a warning label - Watch Multiple Times! Though I truly enjoyed the first watch I found it to be a deeply textured work and feel I gained full appreciation once I'd watched it more than once.
Beautiful if you let yourself connect emotionally! I feel a little saddened that some have described Midnight Special as emotionally flat - perhaps with all the big special effects movies now days we have grown too used to obvious, simplistic expression of emotion.
Oh - and the grass dies (not ripples), it can be seen again around the father's feet when he carries Alton out to the sunrise AND it looks like the father is in distress because Alton is drawing on his energy too before the sun comes up.
oh lolol I thought the grass was turning into worms or some biblical shit I was way off
LOL - took me a little while to see it too! I didn't pick up that the ground broke along ley lines - pretty cool! I think I was the 'light beings' that guided Alton to the cave though (so not ley lines there) also I assume it would have been them that provided the March 6th date to Alton. Lastly it's a salt water marsh land not wheat fields.

I didn't really understand if you really explained the ending ( I don't blame you, the movie is like a puzzle with too many pieces missing) but I still enjoyed it so congrats for that I guess.
I felt that the glimmer in his eyes at the end may have been a hint at Alton maybe figuring out a way to communicate with his father. Your theory sounds interesting too and makes a lot of sense.

Awesome intro to this one bro! Keep up the great work.
Wouldn't it be cool if this was the start of a series of the dad visiting the other world? A start to the series similar to Wanda Vision
There are sooo many directions this could branch into.
He's most likely from there . I noticed that during the whole movie he didn't even put a bullet proof vest on . I might have to rewatch but I think the dad used abilities without it being obvious.

I'm Really late to the party. Saw THE BIKERIDERS a few weeks ago, and have since watched 5 more of Jeff's films, with M/S today. First, as universally agreed, your Opening was a hoot! The film was everything I've come to expect with Jeff Nichols: creative writing, excellent acting, beautiful visuals, powerful sound and a moving musical score. It's a crime that this film LOST money during its release. Oh well, there is no accounting for taste.
Roy has matured and is in control of his powers, so no one sees them
Man what?! Where did these super fun intros go?? Never in the newer uploads since like over a year ago:(
SOUTH EASTERN
that intro is everything ive ever wanted. now i can die in peace
5:34, "South West"??? No, I think not.
YOUR INTROS ARE SO UNDERRATED
so this had nothing to do with midnight city?
'Fraid not
This entire movie reminded me of the music vid
That is my favourite song !!!
I liked you from the first time I came across one of your 🎥. Now I why and you nailed the intro😁😘
"Southwestern US"
Ah yes, Florida, the epitome of the Southwest
We know what he meant. I hope.
Hey, idk if you’re into musicals, but if you are, there’s a series on UA-cam by Starkid.
The first part is The Guy Who Didn’t Like Musicals. That makes sense (ish).
Part two is Black Friday.
It makes less sense, but still enough.
Where I’m confused, is:
How do the six episodes following those two movies fit in. They’re called Nightmare Time, and I’m just not sure if they’re all dead and being reanimated, if it’s like Gravity Falls, the Treehouse Of Horror, or something else. I mean, Paul and Emma go from meeting to getting married, implying it’s a single timeline, but they keep dying, also...
5:36 same general location as the Shimmer (Annihilation)
It also had a (smh) similar ending; eyed glowed.
Your videos give me life and they are always getting more and more funny: I love it
Except for the special effects, the movie was a little boring to me.
LadyCeag840 same
Nice dance at the beginning 😂👌 I'll have to agree with Adam Driver here
It's wendsday my dudes ..ahhhhhhhhhhh
That intro was awesome!!! #FoundFlix
Wednesday my dudes?
Love ur channel bro
I didn't see his eyes glow at the end
Neither
It was more like a glowing reflection, along with a sound. You can even see it in this guys explanation, where he shows the dad looking out towards the sunrise from the prison.
J BS yeah, I agree. No glowing eyes except from sun reflection. He's looking out with hope because he knows there's another world and his son is there.
With you buddy. No idea what he's talking about
Loved your dancing at the end! Lol
