You missed that horse Jean Jacket was supposed to be “broken/trained” by Emerald. In the end alien Jean Jacket was broken by Emerald, so it all came full circle for her. She finally completed her family right of passage.
This movie really had my heart racing the entire movie. The scene with the entire crowd getting eaten had creeped me out. And hearing their screams above the Haywood house as their being slowly digested was so tense.
I didn't even realize that was them screaming tbh, since we heard a smart sound earlier in the movie from the creature I just assumed that was it's sound somehow
I enjoyed the fact that O.J. was just so freaking cool about everything, even at the jump scare moments, he would just quietly say, " Nope." And he was smart as well as reasonable, quiet, and very observant. He was like one of those friends that you might have in your group who doesn't have much to say and you think they're either lame or bored, but when they do speak up, their words become relevant and their statements, spot on. It's like they don't have time to mince words with you, but look out when they do talk because it's on then. And the only thing you can do is look at them in shock with your mouth hanging open and wondering, who is this person?
OJ grew up around those horses, so no matter what happens, he needs to be there to feed them and take care of them. Him recognizing this and putting them as a top priority was such a positive way to show masculinity. Jordan Peele always gives us healthy, strong men as main characters. And I really appreciate his work because of things like that.
That's what Stoic means. A stoic is someone who pays attention in silence and speaks when its absolutely necessary. People with those traits are typically the mind that people listen to when they abruptly break their habit of not speaking.
Another factor in Holst's demise, is that I think he was sick. There's a part before the climax of the film where Angel notices him taking pills. Jordan Peele isn't one to point the viewer to something without any meaning. So if he was already dying, what better way to go out than attempting to get the "impossible shot".
The fact that he was watching those predator reels all day seems like he was obsessed with getting those kinds of shots, even if he himself was the prey.
Something I haven't seen anyone bring up yet is the design of Ricky's aliens and how they're directly inspired by Gordy's Home. They've got furry, brown bodies, with his kids wearing actual monkey suits. Even more striking is the heads, being the same gray oval and two black circles as the cameras on the show's set (seen in front of the empty studio audience seats in the last "Gordy's Home" scene). It's a really cool detail and more proof of how affected Ricky was by the event. He calls them "the viewers" .... Heads like a camera ... All part of the spectacle Pretty cool thematic tie-ins in their design.
I noticed that the plushie alien heads looked like the cameras in the Gordy's Home scene. It's definitely something you have to pay attention to to notice.
When the alien spit out the horse on OJs car, it was like the alien was saying, "Here, take your horse back you asshole" and raining blood on the house was payback
Well yes and no , bc symbolically the alien was jean jacket so it was more so sending him back that message that he needs to make things right for them
When I tell y’all my heart STOPPED at the stable scene where the kids prank him…… I literally felt my body like float away from me. The creepiest thing is looking into the dark at something and that something starts moving 😳 yucckk
After sleeping on it, I think the movie was more a allegory on social media and fame. How we are willing to go to great lengths to become famous and get a quick buck. Examples: Haywards wanting to capture it on video to get on Oprah. Never truly coming to terms the deal of their father. Thinking money will solve their problems. Ricky not dealing with the trauma and grief he suffered from that monkey attack and turning the alien into a spectacle in order to make money and become famous again The director getting the “perfect shot” and literally sacrificing himself to do so. Lot of people now a days sell their souls to become an influencer and only let the public see the best versions of themselves while burying any internal struggles.
I felt like it was also a commentary on surveillance culture. Lots of people are happy to hide behind the camera for spectacle, rarely do they want to be the one filmed.
Alternate theory for vomiting blood all over the house: The alien usually eats a horse at a time, but it suddenly eats 40 people. It's vomiting because it ate way too much.
@@arche5639 i left the imax theatre confused and unsure of what i’ve just watched. especially in the final act - why does the creature metamorphose into a completely different shape? and i’m sure OJ stares at it for not only once in the final act and why doesn’t he get sucked up by the saucer?
@@fgjhcfgg24242 That's a fair question. I'd go with dramatic image for the movie. I don't think it was aiming at OJ and Em's father, it was a coincidence. I suppose it could be argued the other way.
It can also be seen that maybe his footage survives. Im not a damage analyst but I feel that the old timy footage reel box could survive quite the beating.
The tmz reporters helmet also doubled as a call back to when lucky had the handheld mirror pointed at him. Regardless of where the guy went there was essentially an eye on the alien regardless of where he was. The Helmet was a big ass mirror lol
I just saw the film yesterday cuz it only released recently in India. There were so many details in this film. The first ever motion picture was of a black man riding a horse and the first ever clear ufo footage was going to be a ufo chasing a black Man on a horse. The cinematographer was suffering from cancer (he was taking pills) and he wanted the impossible shot which was of a prey's pov when it's being eaten by a predator (he was looking at film footages like that). It's about social media. The alien was being referred to as "the viewers" by Angel. They try to tame/capture the viewers. If you look at it (social media stars who get obsessed with viewership or followers), it sucks you in and eats you (your financial and social life and what happens to you are in the hands of your viewers/subscribers/followers now) . The movie references from ET (Gordy and Jupe's fist bump), close encounters of the third kind, Akira (motorcycle slide). An alien monster that looks like a flying saucer which looked like it came from one of H P Lovecraft's novels. Man this movie is gold. The reviewers saying this movie waa bad are absolute idiots.
I don't think Holst's film was destroyed, especially since the alien rejects non-organic items. Holst mentioned the wheelchair on the roof and noticed all of the other junk, so he had to know that it does this. He also mentioned that Em wants to live the dream he is living everyday, which it is implied that he is not quite satisfied with it as he hasn't got his true idea of a perfect shot. He sacrificed himself knowing that the film would be rejected out of the alien ( there's a scene that indicated it did survive) with the impossible shot of the alien's mouth and possibly inside of it. Plus, there was another crank camera on the hill that Angel took over after Holst left with the other one. Plus, there was a huge film crew in the end of the movie at the park's gate, as the alien flew over the town, so probably a lot of other people caught it on camera also.
@@FilmUnveiled The town people and news crew were far enough from it not to lose their power. The alien only knocked out power within a short radius, which is why they had all those whacky blow-up dolls to indicate where it was. The worse case of scenario for the average person in town is that they had crappy phone cameras that didn't get a good shot, but the local news crew was at the park, so they probably got enough quality film saved up until the alien got close to the park. Also, the biggest proof that the alien existed is the remains of it that landed wherever after the credits rolled.
Otis isn't wearing a bulletproof vest, that's just regular padding protection horse riders sometimes wear especially if they are planning on doing something dangerous. A really good idea since multiple characters get thrown through the air.
Holst brought his camera. The camera will be disposed of due to being nonorganic. Maybe the film survives. He filmed the experience of being eaten alive. The "you don't belong the shot" is both saying "you don't deserve to die. Run." And also "I've been working for this moment my entire life. This is my moment." Thoughts?
That’s not what he said though. He said they don’t deserve the money shot which means he wanted to selfishly be the one to get it. Which ended up leading to their death.
@@TimmySquibs no he meant that the. Only way to get the money shit is by entering the alien. Angel is some random fry's employee he doesn't deserve death
@@StrokingSoft yeeee I thought of that too and likely the images are completely ruined but there's still a chance it either digested and pooped it out or it survived the event. Impossible to know.
No one has yet mentioned the shot of OJ standing in front of the aliens form that resembles a camera lens. It goes back to the opening of the film into the aliens mouth and references the first black man and horse shot on film. There, it showed us its final form, and what is gonna happen at the end with OJ.
I wish that they'd shown the shots they got of Jean Jacket over the credits, including the shots of Holst being eaten. The ending still felt a little unresolved for me with them getting all the shots, but no implication of how the world received them. At least getting to see that the footage survived would've driven home that it wasn't all for nothing.
It's good when a director leaves some ambiguity. A lot of audiences want things drawn in crayon these days, but I really respect how some directors know how to practice restraint. Also, they didn't need to show how the images/footage were received because it's superfluous to the plot. That wasn't what the story was ultimately about.
The movie continues to press the fact to viewers that the media is, has, and will continue to cover up any of the stories about this thing the tmz rider literally said that area is blurry on google maps it was something that plenty knew about but dont want the masses to know
@@LadyAstarionAncunin There's too much ambiguity in film that's there just for the sake of it. Most of it feels like the director is faithfully employing some "essential art tips" they learned in film school about "leaving the audience wanting more." In Memento, the ultimate end of the protagonist's lifelong revenge chase is left ambiguous because it actually _doesn't_ matter, what matters is how the chase began, and the ending doesn't at all feel cut off or that something was deliberately unanswered to "make the audience think for themselves" or something. Here, I disagree the audience reception to the footage is superfluous to the plot. If the film is a commentary on spectacle, creating, capturing, and consumption of it, then there's absolutely reason to follow through with that thread to the end. On the other hand, Emerald's disinterest in the photos after the fight, and the fact they aren't followed up on could also be a message itself. Kind of like: you can only win the game if you stop playing/paying attention to the spectacle, or something. We want to see the chaos that unfolds when the pictures are released and they go on Oprah and the world sees - but that's the spectacle, that would be sensationalizing their traumatic event, and so it's denied to us. Or I'm talking out my ass, whatever.
What we actually see at the opening credits is the same green/blue square that follows the sister/brother duo around in its final form. Which is actually it’s eye, following them
I watched it again tonight and noticed when Jupe is describing the Snl skit, when he says “and Kattan was killing it” then it flashbacks to when he was hiding under the table while the monkey was “killing it” 😢so sad
When I was watching the final scene I was under the impression that everyone was wearing bright clothes to mimick the flags that the alien couldn't digest. Not for visibility.
This easily made my top 20 favorite movies. The music and CGI with JJ is amazing, the characters have a ton of depth and personality to them, it’s usage of limited vision and little explanation has me on my seat the whole time, the plot is as airtight as any movie can be, and it’s just phenomenal overall. I love it I love it I love it!
There were a couple of cool anime references in this movie, too. Emerald performs an Akira slide on the motorcycle during the climax of the film, and the design of the alien's final form is reminiscent of the angels from Neon Genesis Evangelion. Makes me wonder if they ever made a sequel, however unlikely, they might focus on cult worship of these creatures after being mistaken for "Biblically accurate" angels.
I have a theory NO ONE has said about the cameras on the set of Gordy's home. They look just like the alien masks Jupe makes for his children later, I think they represent the real monster in all of this, to Jupe at least was the camera, the fame, the pressures of being a child star and that's why his alien "monster" masks look just like the camera from his childhood career!!
I like how the alien looks like a cloud by day, yet when Emerald takes a picture of it with the tokens for the wishing well, the creature looks sorta like a kite/ jellyfish I thought those little flags were a tiny clue on what the alien looked like in it’s true form. That fake horse with the tiny flags must of been a distraction for the park, glad Emerald took it. The creature could of eaten Otis Junior that night when he was trying to catch Ghost
If you've ever worked with a DP you know that they will go to incredible lengths to get a better shot even when everyone else on the crew is going "no, we got it, let's move on"
So about the shoe: Angel brings up that they dont use the term ufo anymore but UAP (Unidentified Aerial Phenomena), so I feel taking the aerial part out, Ricky's first encounter with a unidentified phenomenon was his event in the studio with the shoe. There was another youtube review that say because maybe we're seeing things through his view, maybe his mind plays trick with how in shock he was that he just focus on this show like something random to remain calm, maybe the shoe wasn't really standing up like that
No, the shoe was an example of a “bad miracle” miracle because it kept him from looking the monkey in its eyes, bad because it desensitized him to how traumatic that day was and he he walked out too confident because he ended up connecting with the monkey
Is “Unidentified Aerial Phenomena” really what UAP stands for?? I thought maybe it stood for Unidentified Alien Predator, which would make sense since the UFO is actually revealed to not be a ship, but instead an actual alien organism itself, that is also a predator (since it is obviously eating people). And also it would make sense why the government suddenly changed it from UFO to UAP, not only to confuse civilians, but also because maybe the government too realized the UFO was actually a living alien being itself, so they had to change the name from Unidentified Flying Object, to Unidentified Alien Predator in favor of something more accurate. But idk, that was just my theory.
@@ballislife2351 a bad miracle is a good way to see it too, same concept of something that frozen in his mind that he kept as part of his gallery. Just a fun movie
@@lil_foot_lettuce I was curious, so on my second viewing I was ready to look it up when he mention it during the movie since he all he said was UAP, I guess phenomena since is the word they went to leave it open to anything
Was I the only one who noticed he didn’t get the shot on the first try? When they reload the film into the camera, the film folds and doesn’t align so when he looks at the footage, sees he messed up he says “we don’t deserve the impossible”
My question actually is in the beginning when OJ goes out in the evening to try to find ghost and you see Jupiter stadium lit up and you hear Ricky speaking in a mic and then all the power of the lights go down and then you hear screaming like they're being abducted and then you hear the saucer flying overhead with the screams so my question is that had to be a feeding time
@@johnaerivera2993 yes he took all the horses except lucky. Which Oj refer to lucky as his 2nd best horse. I believe ghost was #1. Ironically Ghost turned into a ghost.
I didn’t find this movie scary but extremely heartfelt and I cried throughout a lot of it, maybe because it had to do with animals but idk. I did love it though and thought the plot was executed very good and the acting was amazing. All of the main actors did so good it almost blew my mind I’m definitely going to have to give it several more watches
You cried??? 😂😂 what an idiot. The movie was boring asf. I heard several people snoring throughout the movie and people were laughing at his movie because of hpw dumb it Is. The theme of the movie was obvious from the get go.
in the film when jupe is describing the gordy incident, he said it was 6 minutes and 13 seconds of chaos. then when he was talking to the crowd, he said he first encountered the saucer at 6:13 pm. is there any significance with 6:13?
In the King James version of the Bible, that passage is "And lead us not into temptation, but deliver. us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and. the power, and the glory, for ever"
How bout the exploding fist bump that was foreshadowed in Ricky’s office then the payoff with the ape shot and blood explosion as Ricky and the ape fist bump on the set. Classic peele.
I can't help with notice that nobody's gonna talk about that moment in the diner where there was a whole fight and there was a witness who walked away, and OJ says something along the lines "of you shouldn't look it in the eye or it will eat you", Emerald ends up saying "nobody wants to talk about that" and then Angel says "read the room dude"
🤔 I wonder what tat witness was thinking as they walked away... Probably thought the crew was crazy, until the person SAW the alien explode in MID-DAYLIGHT and a bunch of news reporters & bystanders started to crowd the scenes and take pics, making the witness realize just how serious the crew was being.
I have a question… did Ricky want to buy the ranch because of the alien? Are we supposed to assume that Ricky had an encounter with the alien BEFORE he fed it with a horse? Ricky tells OJ that the offer Ricky proposed to OJ’s dad (to buy the ranch) still stands. So Ricky knew about the alien, fed it a horse, the alien then eats the hiker and unloads on top of OJ’s dad. Maybe I’m just stupid though
Ok, didn’t he buy that horse for $11.5? I mean they were trick horses, so why would he spend that much when you could find regular horses cheaper? If you are just using them for bait?
I think the alien purposely killed Otis , Otis was looking up when the coin hit him and we know that the Alien can target people like when the alien starts dropping items on top of the house
Nah, the creature rejects non-organic items. It was just spitting out what was left in peoples pockets when it’s digesting them. They just didn’t know they were under it at the time
Really enjoyed this movie. I know some think this is Peele's weakest film but I personally think it's his best. That scene with the kids dressed as Aliens, man, if Peele really wanted to make a cliche horror flick he could definitely make one, honestly that scene has me hoping he one day says screw it and makes a cliche horror flick cause he obviously knows how to draw the audience in and keep them in suspense and spook them.
One of the most nastiest scenes was when the show was going on and Jupe stated that the alien was a "friend" just to be eaten after. And when they show people getting sucked inside the alien and into it's nasty ass intestines?! Like as if everybody was just getting swallowed and digested 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 like they were screaming and shit. And like you could hear the screaming wherever the alien went. And i couldn't help but imagine how claustrophobic that must have felt. And at one point you could hear Jupe telling the people after getting swallowed while INSIDE the intestine to "not worry" while they literally got impaled with the other stuff that alien swallowed. And yes did I forget about people literally started projectile vomiting too while they were inside. 🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠
I took the things sewn onto the back of his hoodie to be like eyes. I think earlier in the movie they say something like "never turn your back on a predator" I thought those were representing eyes. Like on a tiger they have white spots on the back of their ears as false eyes so that other predators believe the tiger is alert and watching them.
I do think, the blood rain happens because there was this crush sound before the rain poured down. So I think that those people screaming for hours was basically them being slowly digested before forcibly being crushed so the monster could throw up all those objects it couldn't digest.
Rikki wasn't ignoring trauma to turn a profit as a child, that undermines the overall message the Peele was going for with that scene and the whole character of Rikki. You don't even go into whats confusing about that scene. The fact that the monkey doesn't kill Rikki. The monkey was tired of being used for these peoples entertainment, he was tired of being patronized, when the baloon popped he snapped, he didn't kill Rikki, (the only non white cast member on the show) because he understood they were using him as a token as well. the fist bump they would do, symbolizes "the agreement" one goes in on with a predator to earn it's respect. this history with an agreement with a powerful animal resonated in Rikki, it was the single most impactful moment of his life. So he felt like he could enter a similar kind of agreement with the alien.
right before the alien rained blood on the ranch, you could still hear the people still alive and screaming, then you hear a massive crunch and everything went quiet, it think what happened was that it kept on trying to suck up the people, and what happened was they all got crushed up against the horse... which was why there was also blood coming out of the alien as well as coins and stuff
I think some of the film from Holsts earlier shots did survive. When Angel was rolling down the hill, some of the tapes from before in its protective case rolled down the hill. So the case from the big camera probably made it
Motorcycle guy also looks like the mirror ball that pissed off the horse on the movie set in the scene that got them fired in the first place. It reflects the eye of the creature, and it thinks it’s being stared down and challenged
It's meant to symbolise the way people put meaning in coincidences to the extent they use them to justify their future actions. Jupe thought not looking at Gordy saved his life so he can do the same with the UAP, the shoe justified this in his head. Except the UAP isn't like Gordy
I think it was tied to "the bad miracle" with Jupe. He thought he had some sort of luck with being the "chosen one" to survive, you can hear him telling himself "you're chosen" before he reveals Lucky at his show.
I was thinking this, too. I can definitely see Jupe being miffed at losing the fake horse, but OJ did tell Emerald that they kids let Clover out. Not sure if that was payback, dinner for the alien, or a combo of both.
This didn’t answer any of my questions I had about the movie.. why was the shoe floating upwards when Gordy was attacking the lady on set? Why was Jupe able to feed horses to the alien so many times before without being eaten himself? Why did the alien eat the tmz reporter when he had a full head covering helmet on and couldn’t be making eye contact with the alien? Why did the alien not chase OJ when he was trying to catch ghost?
1) The shoe standing upward was a “bad miracle.” An impossible phenomenon. It ended up saving young Jupe’s life because he was so fixated on it that he didn’t look the angry chimp in the eye like the other cast and crew did. The angle at which he was looking at the shoe allowed the table cloth to obscure his eyes from the chimp. Hence why it didn’t go after him. But Jupe also learned the wrong lesson from the experience. He thought he was spared because he had some special connection with animals, which is why he thought he could tame Jean Jacket. In reality, he was just really lucky. Saved by a “bad miracle.” 2) He kept them in that cage until the alien arrived and then would send them out running. The alien would capture and feed on the running horses from a far enough distance that it didn’t feel the need to go after Jupe. It would just take its meal and move on. When Jupe tried it on Lucky, Lucky wouldn’t leave the cage. So Jean Jacket had to get a lot closer to Jupe to get it. Also keep in mind Jupe had been rehearsing with his family at night up until then. It was probably harder for the alien to see them all. But it was way easier to see him with a crowd in broad daylight. And a much bigger meal than just one horse. 3) The TMZ reporter’s helmet, while it did obscure his face, was reflective like a mirror. There’s a scene at the very beginning where Lucky sees his own reflection on a similar looking metallic ball and freaks out. It’s very likely the alien reacted in a similar way to when it came close enough to the helmet. Also, it could have interpreted the reflective helmet as a big giant eye looking at it. And once again, it had to assert its dominance. 4) It was nighttime with no lighting when OJ chased after Ghost. And OJ wasn’t wearing any loud-colored clothing so that the alien could really see him. Ghost was white, making noise, and kicking up a lot more dust running. Plus, it was used to chasing and eating horses. It knew what they looked like running around. Simply put, Ghost was a lot easier to see than OJ was. Hope this helps.
@@Fortecloud That had a lot to do with it too. It was already pissed about the fake horse, but I don’t think it attacked Jupe and the spectators just because of that. I think it was a contributing factor, but I think the real reason was that fake horse was keeping it from feeding properly, and by the time it saw Jupe and the crowd, it was starving. Basically, Jean Jacket was hangry. A real deal horse that refused to leave its pen so it could get to it along with a bunch of human gawkers staring at it was the last straw. It snapped after that and gorged on everyone it could suck up. Much like Gordy and the popping balloons. Enough was enough.
The orange and green that oj and em are wearing at the end is supposed to parallel the orange marking tape and green screens at the beginning of the film. In the end, em and oj are are simply what makes the spectacle...but no one actually cares about the green screens and orange tape right?
Great explanation, video, and narrator! Finally, Looper DOES have narrators with bearable voices lol. This guy's voice I can actually listen to the entire video. 😉👍👍
i rewatched the clip of them getting succed up and theres a flag u can see in the tube by the first guy and the decoy horse was stuck at the end and so the people were stuck in there too because it couldnt digest them and so when the alien hovers over the house i think it finally crushes/dissolves them in order to dislodge the horse and thats why it vomits/poops the blood and suddenly the screams stop.
You are right. It probably takes awhile to digest food. That's why at times you can hear spooky noises of his previous feedings. When it was over the house, that loud noise was from all the people on Jupes show finally being crushed and killed. And dropping all that stuff stuff is like a predator saying this my area.
@@bustingyewls154 my theory is normally theyd be able to pass through to like a stomach or something but i think it has the ability to crush them with the walls of its tubes
See I felt that it should have taken a more traditional alien movie approach. The fact that we never got any on the ground bothered me. For a brief moment I thought that Barn scene was real and it was creepy then I was disappointed that it wasn't
@@NoCloutJoey It definitely worked. The trailer did a great job of showcasing weird stuff that looked unnatural. The lady with the hidden face and funky teeth. The monkey paw looking kind of like an alien hand and the barn monsters. Which all turned out to be normal things
@@hoganspartan13 Yes, but the film he was shooting should have still been in the camera, not inside a film case. It's unclear if the footage would actually survive intact.
Why did Holst create a hand cranked camera when a wind-up (spring) camera would have made more sense? How often did the theme park have the Star Jupiter Experience show? Every night? Weekend nights? That's a lot of horses. And awfully expensive considering how few audience members are shown attending. Why had no audience member at previous shows taken a picture of the creature? Inquiring minds want to know.
I kept waiting for Holsts camera to be found laying on the ground, after the big "pop" . Would have been a good ending I think..show the sister pick it up..for her fame.. And hey, what the F was up with the damn balancing or stuck shoe they kept focusing on? The one the girl lost on the monkey set?
So, I watched another video and they explained it like this; The movie is all about the viewers obsession with the spectacle of violence. So, when people look at the alien (the spectacle) they die. The side show is all about celebrating the spectacle of violence, so, they're all killed, as is the film director with his obsession with "the perfect shot" The shoe was a "bad miracle", a fluke that kept young jupes attention focused on it, rather than the violence around him, ultimately saving his life. Had he looked at the chimp (the violence) he would gave been killed as well.
The shoe was also a random happenstance that left Jupe with a delusion of being “Special”, and literally killing himself chasing that specialness of his childhood celebrity (and the Gordy tragedy).
Someone in the comments on another video about this movie explained that the motorcycle riders mirrored helmet reflected OJ's face in it which is why the alien thought the motorcycle rider was looking at him and swooped down to eat him. That's why OJ says "My bad" and runs away 😬😅 Whoops.
The cinematography was phenomenal, the color grading, sound and music. The storyline was kind of what I expected from Hollywood, kinda like M Night Shyamalan movies. It didn't wow me nor bother me in any way. I like "The Black Phone" sometimes simple is better. Just my opinion
I like that you can never really get a read on the creature, as much as the movie wants to convince you that you’ve gotten a glimpse into what it is. There’s so much we don’t know. I’ve got a thousand of questions but a prominent would be, is it intelligent and able to think, or is it just a simple animal? Do we see the creature acting out of spite and hate, strategically threatening the ranch-dwellers with the blood and objects it ejects for denying it food and toying with it, or is it truly all instinctual? Lashing out in frustration like Gordy acts out in fear in primal fashion, ejecting it’s waste and the excess of food away from its feeding grounds, among other things?
He also has a lot of film of many other animals he closely recorded their eyes with. Possibly he wanted the same close recording of this creatures eye.
It was a bad miracle. Had jupes attention been on the chimp, had he looked at it, the thing would have ripped his face off too. Instead he focused on the shoe, and was spared.
to me the only thing missing in this movie, was a scene in which you could see what exactly happens to the people inside... like you can not dive into this subject at all, but if you are gonna throw a scene in which you can see teh people inside, i say you committ to it, and show what happens when your inside, the scene just cuts away before you can see what happens at the exact moment of death. That 1 scene could raise the horror value of the film a lot more.
@@Millennial_Luxe 4 hours ill watch. I would like to see how different the movie will be. Like the Justice League movie directors cut has a different tone.
I just came home from the movie, I don't remember any of that footage either. Probably something used in promotional material that didn't make the final cut. It would have been pretty out of place in the film as seen.
I have a theory that the Alien had the ability to control animals, because that monkey going rogue on set felt very unnatural, and also, that Bug landing on the camera right when the alien came out of disguise and then flying off right when it returned to the clouds, cant be a coincidence. That shoe was floating while the monkey attacked which indicates some form of supernatural involvement. And the monkey did attack rick because rick didn't look it in the eye, his eyes were blocked by the hanging table cloth of the table he was hiding under.
JP said he set out to make Jaws but in the sky. I think he accomplished that. The rest is just filler. But fun to speculate about 🤷🏼♀️ I thought It was a good time.
Like others have said...the shoe is most likely NOT LITERALLY standing up like that. Its just meant to serve as a visual representation/visual metaphor of Jupe's trauma and how focusing on the shoe potentially saved him. But to be fair, its not the viewer's fault for thinking the shoe has supernatural properties when Peele put it in the movie without clever explanation. Peele's movies are not for the type of ppl who are satisfied with metaphors and thats ok.
The shoe was standing up. It was representative of a bad miracle. Something ironic to have happened as the entire attack happened. It was saved as a momentum. It was definitely standing up. That can happen lol
Everyone says bad miracle but no that doesn’t makes sense it waiting for the other shoe to drop. Tired of the bad miracle like that is suppose to explain it
I just watched it, and this is one of the best videos to explain the "deeper" meaning. While watching I didn't notice a lot of this! Thanks! Seen and being seen and all the implications.
Honestly my favorite part of the movie was Em saying “Ima take you to Oprah” when using the Winking Well because not only does it nip Em’s story but does it western and with a cinematic conclusion with a 🔥 soundtrack
If you look at the family logo of the black hat OJ wears it foreshadows him riding lucky and the "H" would be Jean jacket & i think OJ is still alive as well because we wouldve heard screams like everyone else that was eaten
Why was it so important to get the photo at the end if there’s probably a big jellyfish corpse for everyone to have a look at? Where was the win? Why did the alien change form? Why didn’t we learn about Jupe’s alien obsession before his show? Surely he has a secret room all about that too? And why didn’t the veteran camera man’s equipment get dropped from the alien proving evidence of the impossible shot? I felt like there were some editing decisions along the way that made some things confusing.
I'll share with you some ideas I had! In a way, Em getting the final shot of the alien was like her finally taming her 'Jean Jacket' (the horse she was suppose to get for her birthday). The whole concept of the alien is to not look at it, and definitely not living after seeing its second form. So I believe it's seen as her winning, plus all attempts to capture it before may have been botched or destroyed, we aren't really sure. The alien changed form because if you remember, Angel got caught in barbed wire, and the alien inhaled the whole few feet (maybe yards) of it trying to get him. I think that was enough for it to flip itself inside out to release anything else that could of been lodged from it constantly eating non-organic things in those several intense minutes (the TMZ biker, the inflatable men, etc) His equipment PROBABLY did drop, as we see one of the camera tapes roll down the hill after it tries to attack Angel, and I'm thinking it dropped either A: When it changed form or B: When it exploded in the sky. Although a drop from thousands of feet, who knows if it would still be salvageable. That's why the ending shot of Em getting the picture feels a lot more satisfying, because it might be the ONLY clear picture. Hope that helps! Jordan Peele always has a reason behind every shot, but sometimes there's just.. so many things happening at once it's a lot of information to process.
I don't think anything was too confusing, everything was deliberate and clear from the get go. Here are some of my interpretations. It was important to be the first one (obviously for monetary value and fame) and have the proof of the creature alive before it died or even before anyone else was able to take the photo (they also spell this out in the movie before neighboring folks started to swarm in). This ties beautifully with the whole first motion picture been black man riding the horse bit. This was a win in many ways, not only they would be able to save the ranch and their family's legacy but also in a way bring justice/ pay dues to the same first black man (as they claim this man to be their ancestor) who has gone unnamed in the history while the cinematographer gained notoriety. They touch upon this in the movie too. Alien changed or unfurled after trying to ingest Angel, whos quick thinking to wrap himself with barb wire saved his life, the alien got either extremely agitated or felt threatened. Think of a Cobra spreading its hood or a cats defensive posture make it seem bigger. Jupe wanted to keep this a secret to himself so that only he could profit off of this creature, like a wild attraction. It was his hubris and his prior incident with Gordy that he thought he had special connection with wild animal, he literally says he is chosen one in the movie before unveiling Lucky and he wanted be the one to "tame" the alien. That's why he gets very confrontational with OJ and Em when Em stole the horse statue, thinking that they are on to him. Maybe veteran camera man’s equipment did drop, maybe it broke on impact, maybe the sun exposure destroyed the footage anyway, maybe it got lost in rubble and the chaos of the rampage. I, personally like to think that somehow the footage did survive as at the very beginning of the movie we are shown the aliens green mouth/ crap shoot.
Theory, Holst was dying. We see him popping pills and earlier states he's making a lemon tart for friends, like a goodbye party. With Em, the farm is hemorrhaging money, so they want an Oprah shot to pay their debt.
You gotta be kidding! By far, the creepiest scene to me was definitely the chimp rampage! It hovered in my mind the whole rest of the night, after watching the film.
At first I thought it got poked by the barbed wire, and then I noticed that when it was getting close to eating Angel the bottom of the ufo ran into the ground. And then there’s a far shot of it looking deflated. I just figured it was injured…
There is something that we still don't know about the TMZ guy's death. He had a helmet on.....his eyes weren't visible, then why does it kill him and not OJ who is right beside him. Does the mirror like finish of his helmet mess with its brain.......does the brief reflection of OJ's eyes on his helmet trigger it ?? Answer to this question IMO will give us more details about Jean Jacket's behaviour.
Might be something to that. Didn't they say if you look at an angel you'll die. So everyone had to look away. The ones who didn't look away were pulled up into the sky
I knew in the beginning when the credits were showing and the screen was box shaped and you see “rain” I thought to myself as it played I’m sure we’re inside the ship and not knowing and it lol be revealed later
'The viewers' is a reference to 'the watchers' Biblical fallen angels in the book of Enoch. It's final form is representative of the Biblically accurate description of Angels in the Book of Ezekiel.
Exactly I hate when people say the movie was bad due to the fact they can’t understand lol I didn’t understand some parts at first but overall I thought the movie was good
Did you have any questions by the end of "Nope"?
What did the shoe standing upright mean?
Nope
It was a very interesting movie!!
huh?
why were the balloons popping??
You missed that horse Jean Jacket was supposed to be “broken/trained” by Emerald. In the end alien Jean Jacket was broken by Emerald, so it all came full circle for her. She finally completed her family right of passage.
Also, I think her mastery of motorcycles was her way of showing her family that she could ride and do tricks just as well.
@@TheMightyBubbs Whoa I didn’t catch that! In the end her version of “riding a horse” is what saves the day.
Good call

@@-madhatterbbie-8011 “Em”….KeKe Palmer’s character 😆
This movie really had my heart racing the entire movie. The scene with the entire crowd getting eaten had creeped me out. And hearing their screams above the Haywood house as their being slowly digested was so tense.
I agree, this part was beyond scary.
They did a good job with this shot making it seem like you were there. Scary ass shit
I felt very disturbed I mean I seen aot but omg the children it made me almost cry
Yeah and remember the part where this movie blows dick
I didn't even realize that was them screaming tbh, since we heard a smart sound earlier in the movie from the creature I just assumed that was it's sound somehow
Swear that part got me to the point it’s stuck to my head
I enjoyed the fact that O.J. was just so freaking cool about everything, even at the jump scare moments, he would just quietly say, " Nope." And he was smart as well as reasonable, quiet, and very observant. He was like one of those friends that you might have in your group who doesn't have much to say and you think they're either lame or bored, but when they do speak up, their words become relevant and their statements, spot on. It's like they don't have time to mince words with you, but look out when they do talk because it's on then. And the only thing you can do is look at them in shock with your mouth hanging open and wondering, who is this person?
OJ grew up around those horses, so no matter what happens, he needs to be there to feed them and take care of them. Him recognizing this and putting them as a top priority was such a positive way to show masculinity. Jordan Peele always gives us healthy, strong men as main characters. And I really appreciate his work because of things like that.
Reminds me of Ferb from Phineas and Ferb
That's what Stoic means. A stoic is someone who pays attention in silence and speaks when its absolutely necessary. People with those traits are typically the mind that people listen to when they abruptly break their habit of not speaking.
So he was basically a stoic hero? Which has been used in countless movies, television shows, and literature?
He 100% made me instantly think of the “strong quiet cowboy” archetype from old Hollywood films but updated and relevant.
The alien flying around with the 40 people screaming inside of it was freaky af
@Drink Your Whatever LOL
That scene with the people inside the Alien and then later blood raining down on the house is like Steven Spielberg's War of the Worlds.
Could you imagine if instead they would’ve had the monster dump out melting half-digested bodies like in Deep Rising??? 🤣
That scene in particular was the most horrifying of the movie. Lol
@@joseayala8506 I had that nightmares of the toilet death scene
This is exactly what I thought in the theatre. Great cinema.
Totally unrealistic. It should have been a giant turd landing on the house
Another factor in Holst's demise, is that I think he was sick. There's a part before the climax of the film where Angel notices him taking pills. Jordan Peele isn't one to point the viewer to something without any meaning. So if he was already dying, what better way to go out than attempting to get the "impossible shot".
He was making a lemon tart for 10 of his closest friends the first time they called.
The fact that he was watching those predator reels all day seems like he was obsessed with getting those kinds of shots, even if he himself was the prey.
@@jordanlee4855 oh true! Like a goodbye party maybe?
@@jordanlee4855 he said that but I didn’t see any friends or the lemon tart.
Something I haven't seen anyone bring up yet is the design of Ricky's aliens and how they're directly inspired by Gordy's Home. They've got furry, brown bodies, with his kids wearing actual monkey suits. Even more striking is the heads, being the same gray oval and two black circles as the cameras on the show's set (seen in front of the empty studio audience seats in the last "Gordy's Home" scene). It's a really cool detail and more proof of how affected Ricky was by the event.
He calls them "the viewers" ....
Heads like a camera ...
All part of the spectacle
Pretty cool thematic tie-ins in their design.
I thought I was the only one who noticed the connection between the costumes’ heads and the camera equipment on the sitcom
Missed that entirely. Thank you!
excellent comments and insights- thank you everyone!
I noticed that the plushie alien heads looked like the cameras in the Gordy's Home scene. It's definitely something you have to pay attention to to notice.
I’m so glad someone else noticed this
When the alien spit out the horse on OJs car, it was like the alien was saying, "Here, take your horse back you asshole" and raining blood on the house was payback
Yes
Well yes and no , bc symbolically the alien was jean jacket so it was more so sending him back that message that he needs to make things right for them
@Drink Your Whatever fair
@Drink Your Whatever well it's probably because their(those at Jupiter's claim) blood isn't good for the beast's digestive system.

Bingo
Thanks I’m missed that part and wonder who the items had belonged to .
Also a hint to the thing can't absorb non organic material
After sleeping on it, I think the movie was more a allegory on social media and fame. How we are willing to go to great lengths to become famous and get a quick buck.
Examples:
Haywards wanting to capture it on video to get on Oprah. Never truly coming to terms the deal of their father. Thinking money will solve their problems.
Ricky not dealing with the trauma and grief he suffered from that monkey attack and turning the alien into a spectacle in order to make money and become famous again
The director getting the “perfect shot” and literally sacrificing himself to do so.
Lot of people now a days sell their souls to become an influencer and only let the public see the best versions of themselves while burying any internal struggles.
Jordan Peele addressed this and said so himself that was the theme he was going for
Until they see that what really matters is each other. Which is why the final shot is the girl happy to see her brother is alive.
Also the biker paparazzi who was more obsessed with getting his camera and filming everything than surviving his accident.
my sis pointed out as well that he ship reminded her of biblical accurate angels toward the end
I felt like it was also a commentary on surveillance culture. Lots of people are happy to hide behind the camera for spectacle, rarely do they want to be the one filmed.
Alternate theory for vomiting blood all over the house: The alien usually eats a horse at a time, but it suddenly eats 40 people. It's vomiting because it ate way too much.
he kinda said that
but why directly above the house specifically
@@fgjhcfgg24242 a warning from a predator who sense competition
@@arche5639 i left the imax theatre confused and unsure of what i’ve just watched. especially in the final act - why does the creature metamorphose into a completely different shape? and i’m sure OJ stares at it for not only once in the final act and why doesn’t he get sucked up by the saucer?
@@fgjhcfgg24242 That's a fair question. I'd go with dramatic image for the movie.
I don't think it was aiming at OJ and Em's father, it was a coincidence. I suppose it could be argued the other way.
you have it wrong. the “impossible shot” that was being taken was the point of view of prey being killed by a predator
ah that makes sense. and that’s why he watches videos of predators earlier in the movie
You’re right.
It can also be seen that maybe his footage survives. Im not a damage analyst but I feel that the old timy footage reel box could survive quite the beating.
yup he gave in to losing his soul , for the shot wasn't "for them" in his mind they needed to be the shot and experience it
That makes too much sense to be wrong.
The tmz reporters helmet also doubled as a call back to when lucky had the handheld mirror pointed at him. Regardless of where the guy went there was essentially an eye on the alien regardless of where he was. The Helmet was a big ass mirror lol
yeah it could also symbolize the audience. like its a mirror reflecting on us
FINALLY SOMEONE POINTED THIS AMAZING DETAIL OUT-
I just saw the film yesterday cuz it only released recently in India. There were so many details in this film. The first ever motion picture was of a black man riding a horse and the first ever clear ufo footage was going to be a ufo chasing a black Man on a horse.
The cinematographer was suffering from cancer (he was taking pills) and he wanted the impossible shot which was of a prey's pov when it's being eaten by a predator (he was looking at film footages like that).
It's about social media. The alien was being referred to as "the viewers" by Angel. They try to tame/capture the viewers. If you look at it (social media stars who get obsessed with viewership or followers), it sucks you in and eats you (your financial and social life and what happens to you are in the hands of your viewers/subscribers/followers now) .
The movie references from ET (Gordy and Jupe's fist bump), close encounters of the third kind, Akira (motorcycle slide).
An alien monster that looks like a flying saucer which looked like it came from one of H P Lovecraft's novels. Man this movie is gold. The reviewers saying this movie waa bad are absolute idiots.
In which language bro
Hindi or English
@@Prem-qo5oo english

I don't think Holst's film was destroyed, especially since the alien rejects non-organic items. Holst mentioned the wheelchair on the roof and noticed all of the other junk, so he had to know that it does this. He also mentioned that Em wants to live the dream he is living everyday, which it is implied that he is not quite satisfied with it as he hasn't got his true idea of a perfect shot. He sacrificed himself knowing that the film would be rejected out of the alien ( there's a scene that indicated it did survive) with the impossible shot of the alien's mouth and possibly inside of it. Plus, there was another crank camera on the hill that Angel took over after Holst left with the other one.
Plus, there was a huge film crew in the end of the movie at the park's gate, as the alien flew over the town, so probably a lot of other people caught it on camera also.
They likely had digital cameras in the town so they wouldn’t have been able to capture images
Unless the camera was busted open in the fall and all the film got exposed.
@@FilmUnveiled The town people and news crew were far enough from it not to lose their power. The alien only knocked out power within a short radius, which is why they had all those whacky blow-up dolls to indicate where it was. The worse case of scenario for the average person in town is that they had crappy phone cameras that didn't get a good shot, but the local news crew was at the park, so they probably got enough quality film saved up until the alien got close to the park. Also, the biggest proof that the alien existed is the remains of it that landed wherever after the credits rolled.
I saw the film canister fly out when he was sucked up. Didn’t it roll down the hill to where Angel was sitting, entangled in that barbed wire?
Nope... Just kidding. Yep, you're correct.
Otis isn't wearing a bulletproof vest, that's just regular padding protection horse riders sometimes wear especially if they are planning on doing something dangerous. A really good idea since multiple characters get thrown through the air.
This movie right here had me at the edge of my seat! Every time I reclined my chair I jump back up 🤣
SAME
You were able to see a movie and get some cute work in lol
Holst brought his camera. The camera will be disposed of due to being nonorganic. Maybe the film survives. He filmed the experience of being eaten alive. The "you don't belong the shot" is both saying "you don't deserve to die. Run." And also "I've been working for this moment my entire life. This is my moment." Thoughts?
That’s not what he said though. He said they don’t deserve the money shot which means he wanted to selfishly be the one to get it. Which ended up leading to their death.
@@TimmySquibs I don't disagree at all about his selfishness. I just really think he believed they'd make it out alive.
@@TimmySquibs no he meant that the. Only way to get the money shit is by entering the alien. Angel is some random fry's employee he doesn't deserve death
The alien exploded at the end though
@@StrokingSoft yeeee I thought of that too and likely the images are completely ruined but there's still a chance it either digested and pooped it out or it survived the event. Impossible to know.
These are all the least confusing parts of the movie…
Right
😂😂
right?? i thought this was gonna explain the floating shoe on the gordy set
Fr lol I loved the movie but I want to understand it more
Right !! No one was confused by the inflatables it was super obvious
No one has yet mentioned the shot of OJ standing in front of the aliens form that resembles a camera lens. It goes back to the opening of the film into the aliens mouth and references the first black man and horse shot on film. There, it showed us its final form, and what is gonna happen at the end with OJ.
This is really good insight omg
I wish that they'd shown the shots they got of Jean Jacket over the credits, including the shots of Holst being eaten. The ending still felt a little unresolved for me with them getting all the shots, but no implication of how the world received them. At least getting to see that the footage survived would've driven home that it wasn't all for nothing.
It's good when a director leaves some ambiguity. A lot of audiences want things drawn in crayon these days, but I really respect how some directors know how to practice restraint.
Also, they didn't need to show how the images/footage were received because it's superfluous to the plot. That wasn't what the story was ultimately about.
The movie continues to press the fact to viewers that the media is, has, and will continue to cover up any of the stories about this thing the tmz rider literally said that area is blurry on google maps it was something that plenty knew about but dont want the masses to know
@@LadyAstarionAncunin There's too much ambiguity in film that's there just for the sake of it. Most of it feels like the director is faithfully employing some "essential art tips" they learned in film school about "leaving the audience wanting more." In Memento, the ultimate end of the protagonist's lifelong revenge chase is left ambiguous because it actually _doesn't_ matter, what matters is how the chase began, and the ending doesn't at all feel cut off or that something was deliberately unanswered to "make the audience think for themselves" or something. Here, I disagree the audience reception to the footage is superfluous to the plot. If the film is a commentary on spectacle, creating, capturing, and consumption of it, then there's absolutely reason to follow through with that thread to the end.
On the other hand, Emerald's disinterest in the photos after the fight, and the fact they aren't followed up on could also be a message itself. Kind of like: you can only win the game if you stop playing/paying attention to the spectacle, or something. We want to see the chaos that unfolds when the pictures are released and they go on Oprah and the world sees - but that's the spectacle, that would be sensationalizing their traumatic event, and so it's denied to us. Or I'm talking out my ass, whatever.
What we actually see at the opening credits is the same green/blue square that follows the sister/brother duo around in its final form. Which is actually it’s eye, following them
Whaaa
I noticed that as well and thought that maybe their great(x5) grandfather was it’s first victim?
Reminded me of the intro to Under The Skin
@@anotherbaddcreation wtf why did Peele not do that! He shouldve hired you lol
I watched it again tonight and noticed when Jupe is describing the Snl skit, when he says “and Kattan was killing it” then it flashbacks to when he was hiding under the table while the monkey was “killing it” 😢so sad
The way Jupe explain how awesome the situation was had me thinking how child soldier talk about their experiences.
@@sayjinpat4life oh… you’re right.
u can hear that there’s missing hikers in the beginning of the film when oj is listening to the radio.
When I was watching the final scene I was under the impression that everyone was wearing bright clothes to mimick the flags that the alien couldn't digest. Not for visibility.
This easily made my top 20 favorite movies. The music and CGI with JJ is amazing, the characters have a ton of depth and personality to them, it’s usage of limited vision and little explanation has me on my seat the whole time, the plot is as airtight as any movie can be, and it’s just phenomenal overall. I love it I love it I love it!
There were a couple of cool anime references in this movie, too. Emerald performs an Akira slide on the motorcycle during the climax of the film, and the design of the alien's final form is reminiscent of the angels from Neon Genesis Evangelion. Makes me wonder if they ever made a sequel, however unlikely, they might focus on cult worship of these creatures after being mistaken for "Biblically accurate" angels.
Ok weeb, get back in the short bus.
I thought the exact same thing when I saw this
I knew I wasn't the only one who noticed the Eva and Akira references.
I cried like a baby at the Akira motorbike slide-with a Bimmer at that! 😭😭😭
Such an amazing clip!!! My brother and me were like holy fuck!!
Anyone else notice that the 3 camera's from the set of Gordy's Home resemble the white Alien masks (shape and eyes) of Jupe's three children? Hmmmmm
I have a theory NO ONE has said about the cameras on the set of Gordy's home. They look just like the alien masks Jupe makes for his children later, I think they represent the real monster in all of this, to Jupe at least was the camera, the fame, the pressures of being a child star and that's why his alien "monster" masks look just like the camera from his childhood career!!
Yupyupyup
I like how the alien looks like a cloud by day, yet when Emerald takes a picture of it with the tokens for the wishing well, the creature looks sorta like a kite/ jellyfish
I thought those little flags were a tiny clue on what the alien looked like in it’s true form. That fake horse with the tiny flags must of been a distraction for the park, glad Emerald took it. The creature could of eaten Otis Junior that night when he was trying to catch Ghost
A man eating, horse munching, sky jellyfish. The sting is your soul being ripped away as it digests ya... absolutely sickening 🥴
If you've ever worked with a DP you know that they will go to incredible lengths to get a better shot even when everyone else on the crew is going "no, we got it, let's move on"
Random, but Charla Nash, a victim and survivor of the Travis the chimp incident similar to Gordy and the cast in the film, was a guest on Oprah.
Shit you are right... Crazy.. Didnt know about that
maybe not random!!! look into that! yk Jordan peele is the type to serve it deep dish right?
NOT ENOUGH PEOPLE ARE MAKING THIS CONNECTION!!!! SHE WAS IMMEDITALY WHO I THOUGHT OF IN THE THEATER
So about the shoe:
Angel brings up that they dont use the term ufo anymore but UAP (Unidentified Aerial Phenomena), so I feel taking the aerial part out, Ricky's first encounter with a unidentified phenomenon was his event in the studio with the shoe. There was another youtube review that say because maybe we're seeing things through his view, maybe his mind plays trick with how in shock he was that he just focus on this show like something random to remain calm, maybe the shoe wasn't really standing up like that
No, the shoe was an example of a “bad miracle” miracle because it kept him from looking the monkey in its eyes, bad because it desensitized him to how traumatic that day was and he he walked out too confident because he ended up connecting with the monkey
Is “Unidentified Aerial Phenomena” really what UAP stands for?? I thought maybe it stood for Unidentified Alien Predator, which would make sense since the UFO is actually revealed to not be a ship, but instead an actual alien organism itself, that is also a predator (since it is obviously eating people). And also it would make sense why the government suddenly changed it from UFO to UAP, not only to confuse civilians, but also because maybe the government too realized the UFO was actually a living alien being itself, so they had to change the name from Unidentified Flying Object, to Unidentified Alien Predator in favor of something more accurate. But idk, that was just my theory.
@@ballislife2351 a bad miracle is a good way to see it too, same concept of something that frozen in his mind that he kept as part of his gallery. Just a fun movie
@@lil_foot_lettuce I was curious, so on my second viewing I was ready to look it up when he mention it during the movie since he all he said was UAP, I guess phenomena since is the word they went to leave it open to anything
The shoe is a bad miracle, and a perfect shot
Was I the only one who noticed he didn’t get the shot on the first try? When they reload the film into the camera, the film folds and doesn’t align so when he looks at the footage, sees he messed up he says “we don’t deserve the impossible”
My question actually is in the beginning when OJ goes out in the evening to try to find ghost and you see Jupiter stadium lit up and you hear Ricky speaking in a mic and then all the power of the lights go down and then you hear screaming like they're being abducted and then you hear the saucer flying overhead with the screams so my question is that had to be a feeding time
video explains that at the 3 min mark
Yup!
Probably. i think Ghost saw Jean Jacket and took off...then OJ looked up and saw JJ sneaking around in the clouds...
When OJ his in that shed place and the horse was still running outside as Jean Jacket went by, did the Alien get the horse ?
@@johnaerivera2993 yes he took all the horses except lucky. Which Oj refer to lucky as his 2nd best horse. I believe ghost was #1. Ironically Ghost turned into a ghost.
I didn’t find this movie scary but extremely heartfelt and I cried throughout a lot of it, maybe because it had to do with animals but idk. I did love it though and thought the plot was executed very good and the acting was amazing. All of the main actors did so good it almost blew my mind I’m definitely going to have to give it several more watches
You cried??? 😂😂 what an idiot. The movie was boring asf. I heard several people snoring throughout the movie and people were laughing at his movie because of hpw dumb it Is. The theme of the movie was obvious from the get go.
It wasn't supposed to be a horror movie it was kinda like a mystery
I seen it twice might watch it again
Perhaps you cried for O.J.becauae he died. The money shot was not worth it.
@@lifelearner45lloyd97 I think it’s up for interpretation whether he actually died or not
in the film when jupe is describing the gordy incident, he said it was 6 minutes and 13 seconds of chaos. then when he was talking to the crowd, he said he first encountered the saucer at 6:13 pm. is there any significance with 6:13?
In the King James version of the Bible, that passage is "And lead us not into temptation, but deliver. us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and. the power, and the glory, for ever"
@@rosesweetcharlotte doubt that’s it, probably still more commentary on how he couldn’t quite process his trauma
@@bendymelons1133 Given that Yuen seemed to style him after preachers, I have to respectfully disagree.
@@rosesweetcharlotte huh. Good catch! 😏
I reckon the connection is just between the two incidents. He suffered trauma with Gordy, and he's going to be incurring the same wrath with the UFO.
How bout the exploding fist bump that was foreshadowed in Ricky’s office then the payoff with the ape shot and blood explosion as Ricky and the ape fist bump on the set. Classic peele.
I can't help with notice that nobody's gonna talk about that moment in the diner where there was a whole fight and there was a witness who walked away, and OJ says something along the lines "of you shouldn't look it in the eye or it will eat you", Emerald ends up saying "nobody wants to talk about that" and then Angel says "read the room dude"
🤔 I wonder what tat witness was thinking as they walked away... Probably thought the crew was crazy, until the person SAW the alien explode in MID-DAYLIGHT and a bunch of news reporters & bystanders started to crowd the scenes and take pics, making the witness realize just how serious the crew was being.
I have a question… did Ricky want to buy the ranch because of the alien? Are we supposed to assume that Ricky had an encounter with the alien BEFORE he fed it with a horse? Ricky tells OJ that the offer Ricky proposed to OJ’s dad (to buy the ranch) still stands. So Ricky knew about the alien, fed it a horse, the alien then eats the hiker and unloads on top of OJ’s dad.
Maybe I’m just stupid though
Nah thats exactly what happened
Yes. He'd been messing around with that thing for the past 6 months.
When did the alien eat a hiker?
@@CaptainBenjamins Early in the movie there’s a news report in the background it talks about a hiker going missing.
Ok, didn’t he buy that horse for $11.5? I mean they were trick horses, so why would he spend that much when you could find regular horses cheaper? If you are just using them for bait?
I think the alien purposely killed Otis , Otis was looking up when the coin hit him and we know that the Alien can target people like when the alien starts dropping items on top of the house
Yeah, kinda like when OJ clocked a child
But it doesn't seem like it's smart enough to do something like that
Yeah because the alien wanted Ghost
Nah, the creature rejects non-organic items. It was just spitting out what was left in peoples pockets when it’s digesting them. They just didn’t know they were under it at the time
@@donniecastro49 oh hon, it autocorrected shiting out to spitting out. 😂
Really enjoyed this movie. I know some think this is Peele's weakest film but I personally think it's his best. That scene with the kids dressed as Aliens, man, if Peele really wanted to make a cliche horror flick he could definitely make one, honestly that scene has me hoping he one day says screw it and makes a cliche horror flick cause he obviously knows how to draw the audience in and keep them in suspense and spook them.
It's very well done. I will be seeing it again this week.
Me too. Hopefully in IMAX this time
This movie was so fricking good
8/10 or so for me
One of the most nastiest scenes was when the show was going on and Jupe stated that the alien was a "friend" just to be eaten after. And when they show people getting sucked inside the alien and into it's nasty ass intestines?! Like as if everybody was just getting swallowed and digested 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 like they were screaming and shit. And like you could hear the screaming wherever the alien went. And i couldn't help but imagine how claustrophobic that must have felt.
And at one point you could hear Jupe telling the people after getting swallowed while INSIDE the intestine to "not worry" while they literally got impaled with the other stuff that alien swallowed. And yes did I forget about people literally started projectile vomiting too while they were inside. 🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠
I took the things sewn onto the back of his hoodie to be like eyes. I think earlier in the movie they say something like "never turn your back on a predator" I thought those were representing eyes. Like on a tiger they have white spots on the back of their ears as false eyes so that other predators believe the tiger is alert and watching them.
I do think, the blood rain happens because there was this crush sound before the rain poured down. So I think that those people screaming for hours was basically them being slowly digested before forcibly being crushed so the monster could throw up all those objects it couldn't digest.
just saw it today and wow! Truly interesting and riveting film! I really enjoyed it
Rikki wasn't ignoring trauma to turn a profit as a child, that undermines the overall message the Peele was going for with that scene and the whole character of Rikki. You don't even go into whats confusing about that scene. The fact that the monkey doesn't kill Rikki. The monkey was tired of being used for these peoples entertainment, he was tired of being patronized, when the baloon popped he snapped, he didn't kill Rikki, (the only non white cast member on the show) because he understood they were using him as a token as well. the fist bump they would do, symbolizes "the agreement" one goes in on with a predator to earn it's respect. this history with an agreement with a powerful animal resonated in Rikki, it was the single most impactful moment of his life. So he felt like he could enter a similar kind of agreement with the alien.
The vest is a rodeo vest worn by bull riders and rodeo clowns to protect from a horse stomping.
right before the alien rained blood on the ranch, you could still hear the people still alive and screaming, then you hear a massive crunch and everything went quiet, it think what happened was that it kept on trying to suck up the people, and what happened was they all got crushed up against the horse... which was why there was also blood coming out of the alien as well as coins and stuff
I think some of the film from Holsts earlier shots did survive. When Angel was rolling down the hill, some of the tapes from before in its protective case rolled down the hill. So the case from the big camera probably made it
Motorcycle guy also looks like the mirror ball that pissed off the horse on the movie set in the scene that got them fired in the first place. It reflects the eye of the creature, and it thinks it’s being stared down and challenged
I'm surprised no one is referencing the Akira slide Keke did on the bike.
Holst climbing up the mountain to get the shot before he dies, is also a reference to the sentence he says earlier before hanging up on Emerald.
When you eat then eject the undigestible materials 🤔, that's pooping. It pooped on his dad and his house. 😳
What about the standing shoe? Was it just a metaphor that we were waiting for the other shoe to drop?
It's meant to symbolise the way people put meaning in coincidences to the extent they use them to justify their future actions.
Jupe thought not looking at Gordy saved his life so he can do the same with the UAP, the shoe justified this in his head. Except the UAP isn't like Gordy
I think it was tied to "the bad miracle" with Jupe. He thought he had some sort of luck with being the "chosen one" to survive, you can hear him telling himself "you're chosen" before he reveals Lucky at his show.
Pretty sure the kids were there to let out horses to be eaten. After all it was never explained how ghost got out initially.
Oh that makes so much sense!!
I was thinking this, too. I can definitely see Jupe being miffed at losing the fake horse, but OJ did tell Emerald that they kids let Clover out. Not sure if that was payback, dinner for the alien, or a combo of both.
This didn’t answer any of my questions I had about the movie..
why was the shoe floating upwards when Gordy was attacking the lady on set?
Why was Jupe able to feed horses to the alien so many times before without being eaten himself?
Why did the alien eat the tmz reporter when he had a full head covering helmet on and couldn’t be making eye contact with the alien?
Why did the alien not chase OJ when he was trying to catch ghost?
1) The shoe standing upward was a “bad miracle.” An impossible phenomenon. It ended up saving young Jupe’s life because he was so fixated on it that he didn’t look the angry chimp in the eye like the other cast and crew did. The angle at which he was looking at the shoe allowed the table cloth to obscure his eyes from the chimp. Hence why it didn’t go after him. But Jupe also learned the wrong lesson from the experience. He thought he was spared because he had some special connection with animals, which is why he thought he could tame Jean Jacket. In reality, he was just really lucky. Saved by a “bad miracle.”
2) He kept them in that cage until the alien arrived and then would send them out running. The alien would capture and feed on the running horses from a far enough distance that it didn’t feel the need to go after Jupe. It would just take its meal and move on. When Jupe tried it on Lucky, Lucky wouldn’t leave the cage. So Jean Jacket had to get a lot closer to Jupe to get it. Also keep in mind Jupe had been rehearsing with his family at night up until then. It was probably harder for the alien to see them all. But it was way easier to see him with a crowd in broad daylight. And a much bigger meal than just one horse.
3) The TMZ reporter’s helmet, while it did obscure his face, was reflective like a mirror. There’s a scene at the very beginning where Lucky sees his own reflection on a similar looking metallic ball and freaks out. It’s very likely the alien reacted in a similar way to when it came close enough to the helmet. Also, it could have interpreted the reflective helmet as a big giant eye looking at it. And once again, it had to assert its dominance.
4) It was nighttime with no lighting when OJ chased after Ghost. And OJ wasn’t wearing any loud-colored clothing so that the alien could really see him. Ghost was white, making noise, and kicking up a lot more dust running. Plus, it was used to chasing and eating horses. It knew what they looked like running around. Simply put, Ghost was a lot easier to see than OJ was.
Hope this helps.
@@CubanaWriter I thought the alien was pissed of since eating that fake horse and so he ate jupe.
The shoe - waiting for the shoe to drop. At least that’s how I interpreted it.
@@CubanaWriter GREAT analysis! 😀
@@Fortecloud That had a lot to do with it too. It was already pissed about the fake horse, but I don’t think it attacked Jupe and the spectators just because of that. I think it was a contributing factor, but I think the real reason was that fake horse was keeping it from feeding properly, and by the time it saw Jupe and the crowd, it was starving. Basically, Jean Jacket was hangry. A real deal horse that refused to leave its pen so it could get to it along with a bunch of human gawkers staring at it was the last straw. It snapped after that and gorged on everyone it could suck up. Much like Gordy and the popping balloons. Enough was enough.
i feel like what’s done extremely well in the movie is the pacing.
The orange and green that oj and em are wearing at the end is supposed to parallel the orange marking tape and green screens at the beginning of the film. In the end, em and oj are are simply what makes the spectacle...but no one actually cares about the green screens and orange tape right?
The characters' names match the colors as well: OJ for orange (juice) and Emerald green.
best movie i have seen in theaters, definitely going to see it several more times
Great explanation, video, and narrator! Finally, Looper DOES have narrators with bearable voices lol. This guy's voice I can actually listen to the entire video. 😉👍👍
Can't wait to watch it for the second time, tbh!
i rewatched the clip of them getting succed up and theres a flag u can see in the tube by the first guy and the decoy horse was stuck at the end and so the people were stuck in there too because it couldnt digest them and so when the alien hovers over the house i think it finally crushes/dissolves them in order to dislodge the horse and thats why it vomits/poops the blood and suddenly the screams stop.
You are right. It probably takes awhile to digest food. That's why at times you can hear spooky noises of his previous feedings. When it was over the house, that loud noise was from all the people on Jupes show finally being crushed and killed. And dropping all that stuff stuff is like a predator saying this my area.
@@sayjinpat4life it’s such a crazy monster design I love it
Did it have teeth ? How did it eat them
That was honestly such a disturbing scene 😬
@@bustingyewls154 my theory is normally theyd be able to pass through to like a stomach or something but i think it has the ability to crush them with the walls of its tubes
The 3 aliens for me was the best part...I was like oh shish here we go!
Ya that scene got me too
See I felt that it should have taken a more traditional alien movie approach. The fact that we never got any on the ground bothered me. For a brief moment I thought that Barn scene was real and it was creepy then I was disappointed that it wasn't
@@I2ocker89 I think the scene was made to purposely subvert expectations of what an alien actually is in this movie’s universe
@@NoCloutJoey It definitely worked. The trailer did a great job of showcasing weird stuff that looked unnatural. The lady with the hidden face and funky teeth. The monkey paw looking kind of like an alien hand and the barn monsters. Which all turned out to be normal things
I felt like it was fake
I swear there was a scene where the alien spits out the camera reels from holst that have the shot on them
When Angel rolls down the hill in the tarp a film case rolls down with him
@@hoganspartan13 Yes, but the film he was shooting should have still been in the camera, not inside a film case. It's unclear if the footage would actually survive intact.
For me it was the shoe standing perfectly still upright throughout the whole chimp gore rampage.
Great film tho.
Waiting for the other shoe to drop?
Why did Holst create a hand cranked camera when a wind-up (spring) camera would have made more sense? How often did the theme park have the Star Jupiter Experience show? Every night? Weekend nights? That's a lot of horses. And awfully expensive considering how few audience members are shown attending. Why had no audience member at previous shows taken a picture of the creature? Inquiring minds want to know.
I kept waiting for Holsts camera to be found laying on the ground, after the big "pop" . Would have been a good ending I think..show the sister pick it up..for her fame..
And hey, what the F was up with the damn balancing or stuck shoe they kept focusing on? The one the girl lost on the monkey set?
So, I watched another video and they explained it like this;
The movie is all about the viewers obsession with the spectacle of violence. So, when people look at the alien (the spectacle) they die. The side show is all about celebrating the spectacle of violence, so, they're all killed, as is the film director with his obsession with "the perfect shot"
The shoe was a "bad miracle", a fluke that kept young jupes attention focused on it, rather than the violence around him, ultimately saving his life. Had he looked at the chimp (the violence) he would gave been killed as well.
the balancing shoe may have saved jupiters life. it kept him from looking in gordy’s eyes, so he didn’t provoke him to attack
The shoe was also a random happenstance that left Jupe with a delusion of being “Special”, and literally killing himself chasing that specialness of his childhood celebrity (and the Gordy tragedy).
Someone in the comments on another video about this movie explained that the motorcycle riders mirrored helmet reflected OJ's face in it which is why the alien thought the motorcycle rider was looking at him and swooped down to eat him. That's why OJ says "My bad" and runs away 😬😅 Whoops.
The cinematography was phenomenal, the color grading, sound and music. The storyline was kind of what I expected from Hollywood, kinda like M Night Shyamalan movies. It didn't wow me nor bother me in any way. I like "The Black Phone" sometimes simple is better. Just my opinion
I like that you can never really get a read on the creature, as much as the movie wants to convince you that you’ve gotten a glimpse into what it is. There’s so much we don’t know. I’ve got a thousand of questions but a prominent would be, is it intelligent and able to think, or is it just a simple animal? Do we see the creature acting out of spite and hate, strategically threatening the ranch-dwellers with the blood and objects it ejects for denying it food and toying with it, or is it truly all instinctual? Lashing out in frustration like Gordy acts out in fear in primal fashion, ejecting it’s waste and the excess of food away from its feeding grounds, among other things?
At the end, all of Holst film is spit out by the monster. So wouldn’t people be able to watch that. He risked his life for that Oprah shot
Holst's death was completely random and unearned. Like, I get the "artist dying over their art" but it's not earned at all.
Seemed very nonsensical, irrational, and out of character
He had an obsession with predator pretty relationships. Everytime he is shown after the initial introduction he is watching videos about predators
Shots in the movie also focus on him taking medication, so it read to me as sort of a “got nothing to lose” scenario
@@maximumoverdrive6755 yeah, he was dying already. The meds were a subtle confirmation (I assume throat cancer, what with his gravely voice)
He also has a lot of film of many other animals he closely recorded their eyes with. Possibly he wanted the same close recording of this creatures eye.
BUT WHY WAS THE SHOE LEFT VERTICAL on the set??????
I think it was symbolism for anticipation or suspense. Like waiting for the other shoe to drop.
Right
It was a bad miracle.
Had jupes attention been on the chimp, had he looked at it, the thing would have ripped his face off too. Instead he focused on the shoe, and was spared.
Thats a really good question
But Jupe was hiding under the table. Gordy didn't even know he was there till the end.
to me the only thing missing in this movie, was a scene in which you could see what exactly happens to the people inside... like you can not dive into this subject at all, but if you are gonna throw a scene in which you can see teh people inside, i say you committ to it, and show what happens when your inside, the scene just cuts away before you can see what happens at the exact moment of death. That 1 scene could raise the horror value of the film a lot more.
Am I crazy or was the footage of Keke Palmer walking on the walk of fame not in the movie ? Deleted scene ?
I heard the original movie is 4+ hours so totally possible
@@Millennial_Luxe 4 hours ill watch. I would like to see how different the movie will be. Like the Justice League movie directors cut has a different tone.
@@sayjinpat4life same!
I just came home from the movie, I don't remember any of that footage either. Probably something used in promotional material that didn't make the final cut. It would have been pretty out of place in the film as seen.
I have a theory that the Alien had the ability to control animals, because that monkey going rogue on set felt very unnatural, and also, that Bug landing on the camera right when the alien came out of disguise and then flying off right when it returned to the clouds, cant be a coincidence. That shoe was floating while the monkey attacked which indicates some form of supernatural involvement. And the monkey did attack rick because rick didn't look it in the eye, his eyes were blocked by the hanging table cloth of the table he was hiding under.
The horses weren’t’t controlled and the chimpanzee incident happened YEARS before they found the alien
JP said he set out to make Jaws but in the sky. I think he accomplished that. The rest is just filler. But fun to speculate about 🤷🏼♀️
I thought It was a good time.
Like others have said...the shoe is most likely NOT LITERALLY standing up like that. Its just meant to serve as a visual representation/visual metaphor of Jupe's trauma and how focusing on the shoe potentially saved him. But to be fair, its not the viewer's fault for thinking the shoe has supernatural properties when Peele put it in the movie without clever explanation. Peele's movies are not for the type of ppl who are satisfied with metaphors and thats ok.
The shoe was standing up. It was representative of a bad miracle. Something ironic to have happened as the entire attack happened. It was saved as a momentum. It was definitely standing up. That can happen lol
@@yarr63 ahhh ok. Im just tired of ppl being obssessed over the HOW and completely missing the point lol
Everyone says bad miracle but no that doesn’t makes sense it waiting for the other shoe to drop. Tired of the bad miracle like that is suppose to explain it
Come on Looper! Most of your “Confusing Moments Explained” are pretty self explanatory! You Dingle-Berry Jabronies! 😎
I agree fully with this comment lol
I just watched it, and this is one of the best videos to explain the "deeper" meaning. While watching I didn't notice a lot of this! Thanks! Seen and being seen and all the implications.
OJ on a white bronco 🤔🤯
Lmaoooo
OJ, a black man beloved by all until he stopped being profitable
Honestly my favorite part of the movie was Em saying “Ima take you to Oprah” when using the Winking Well because not only does it nip Em’s story but does it western and with a cinematic conclusion with a 🔥 soundtrack
If you look at the family logo of the black hat OJ wears it foreshadows him riding lucky and the "H" would be Jean jacket & i think OJ is still alive as well because we wouldve heard screams like everyone else that was eaten
Huh
@@sayjinpat4life rewatch the movie & look at the FAMILY LOGO & then look at the Hat that OJ is wearing after his dad dies & first encounters
Thank god the confused moments are explained here. I recommend watching this so you can understand
Why was it so important to get the photo at the end if there’s probably a big jellyfish corpse for everyone to have a look at? Where was the win?
Why did the alien change form?
Why didn’t we learn about Jupe’s alien obsession before his show? Surely he has a secret room all about that too?
And why didn’t the veteran camera man’s equipment get dropped from the alien proving evidence of the impossible shot?
I felt like there were some editing decisions along the way that made some things confusing.
I'll share with you some ideas I had!
In a way, Em getting the final shot of the alien was like her finally taming her 'Jean Jacket' (the horse she was suppose to get for her birthday). The whole concept of the alien is to not look at it, and definitely not living after seeing its second form. So I believe it's seen as her winning, plus all attempts to capture it before may have been botched or destroyed, we aren't really sure.
The alien changed form because if you remember, Angel got caught in barbed wire, and the alien inhaled the whole few feet (maybe yards) of it trying to get him. I think that was enough for it to flip itself inside out to release anything else that could of been lodged from it constantly eating non-organic things in those several intense minutes (the TMZ biker, the inflatable men, etc)
His equipment PROBABLY did drop, as we see one of the camera tapes roll down the hill after it tries to attack Angel, and I'm thinking it dropped either A: When it changed form or B: When it exploded in the sky. Although a drop from thousands of feet, who knows if it would still be salvageable. That's why the ending shot of Em getting the picture feels a lot more satisfying, because it might be the ONLY clear picture.
Hope that helps! Jordan Peele always has a reason behind every shot, but sometimes there's just.. so many things happening at once it's a lot of information to process.
@@GoopyPon this is fab! Thank you for your thoughts, it all makes sense.
I don't think anything was too confusing, everything was deliberate and clear from the get go. Here are some of my interpretations.
It was important to be the first one (obviously for monetary value and fame) and have the proof of the creature alive before it died or even before anyone else was able to take the photo (they also spell this out in the movie before neighboring folks started to swarm in). This ties beautifully with the whole first motion picture been black man riding the horse bit.
This was a win in many ways, not only they would be able to save the ranch and their family's legacy but also in a way bring justice/ pay dues to the same first black man (as they claim this man to be their ancestor) who has gone unnamed in the history while the cinematographer gained notoriety. They touch upon this in the movie too.
Alien changed or unfurled after trying to ingest Angel, whos quick thinking to wrap himself with barb wire saved his life, the alien got either extremely agitated or felt threatened. Think of a Cobra spreading its hood or a cats defensive posture make it seem bigger.
Jupe wanted to keep this a secret to himself so that only he could profit off of this creature, like a wild attraction. It was his hubris and his prior incident with Gordy that he thought he had special connection with wild animal, he literally says he is chosen one in the movie before unveiling Lucky and he wanted be the one to "tame" the alien. That's why he gets very confrontational with OJ and Em when Em stole the horse statue, thinking that they are on to him.
Maybe veteran camera man’s equipment did drop, maybe it broke on impact, maybe the sun exposure destroyed the footage anyway, maybe it got lost in rubble and the chaos of the rampage. I, personally like to think that somehow the footage did survive as at the very beginning of the movie we are shown the aliens green mouth/ crap shoot.
Theory, Holst was dying. We see him popping pills and earlier states he's making a lemon tart for friends, like a goodbye party. With Em, the farm is hemorrhaging money, so they want an Oprah shot to pay their debt.
You gotta be kidding! By far, the creepiest scene to me was definitely the chimp rampage! It hovered in my mind the whole rest of the night, after watching the film.
I wonder why the entity evolved over the course of being tamed. Did the entity get so frustrated that it actually was forced to evolve
No the cloud was it cover and the ufo format was to get people to look at it
At first I thought it got poked by the barbed wire, and then I noticed that when it was getting close to eating Angel the bottom of the ufo ran into the ground. And then there’s a far shot of it looking deflated. I just figured it was injured…
There is something that we still don't know about the TMZ guy's death. He had a helmet on.....his eyes weren't visible, then why does it kill him and not OJ who is right beside him. Does the mirror like finish of his helmet mess with its brain.......does the brief reflection of OJ's eyes on his helmet trigger it ?? Answer to this question IMO will give us more details about Jean Jacket's behaviour.
it parallels how the horse reacted to its own reflection at the beginning of the movid
The ufo reminded me of a biblical Angel, they all look terrifying but like majestic or someshit. Idk I’m high as a kite rn
It’s a fallen angel
It was a biblical angel in the final form, but before it's an eye
Watch Ancient Aliens
Might be something to that. Didn't they say if you look at an angel you'll die. So everyone had to look away. The ones who didn't look away were pulled up into the sky
I think Peele actually said Jean Jacket was inspired by Throne Angels
Anybody else try to match up the people in the digestive tract with the people in the audience? I haven't had any luck
I knew in the beginning when the credits were showing and the screen was box shaped and you see “rain” I thought to myself as it played I’m sure we’re inside the ship and not knowing and it lol be revealed later
'The viewers' is a reference to 'the watchers' Biblical fallen angels in the book of Enoch. It's final form is representative of the Biblically accurate description of Angels in the Book of Ezekiel.
Movie was great. Don't listen to these people who think it's bad. See the movie and give your own opinion.
Exactly I hate when people say the movie was bad due to the fact they can’t understand lol I didn’t understand some parts at first but overall I thought the movie was good
I liked it even though I thought it was a bit of a ripoff of Phantoms
Movie was boring and anti climactic imo
