The irony was palpable that he didnt got a Movie about how exploitation and fame seeking can consume us and take away our dignity
His own stupidity is how he gets his comeuppance
@@nerdstorma8427 Tbh I think a lot of people like him are ignorant because reality never hit them in the face. They went straight from High School to Internet Celebrity
@@DeathnoteBB Nah he's just dumb. He'd be just as dumb if he were an unknown. Probably dumber, actually.
@@DeathnoteBB
The best part of you saying “hit them in the face,” is the fact that he and his brother now get paid to have people hit them in the face
@@DeathnoteBB it takes alot for me to say this about a person, I try to be non-judgmental and forgiving, cause I understand everyone has flaws but I legitimately hope he burns in hell. The Japanese forest thing is just unforgivable and show just how empty and self obsessed he is. Like. I have no words. I just hate him. Like a real deep visceral kind of hatred. Cause he basically lives in luxury for being a giant asshole. Even his "attempts" (and I don't even want to call them THAT) to turn a new leaf are so one dimensional, foolish and intellectually barren that he just digs a bigger hole. "I'm vegan now, I'm gay for a month." And taking rats on a balcony and recording it for attention. Fuckin prick, I hope he loses that entire enterprise so he can no longer pollute others with his awful content. Him and his brother need to get what they deserve.
He’s dumbfounded because it’s directed at people like him. He’s looking for a killer through a window when the call is coming from inside the house
hehe sometimes i think logan plays up being dumb for few, and sometimes there are his tweets
"He’s looking for a killer through a window when the call is coming from inside the house"
This sentence slaps so hard
Why am I getting writer vibes from this dude.
Honest to god the guy on the bike might as well have been Logan Paul himself
That was deep, imma use this later 😂
"you're telling me this guy was willing to die because he wanted better lighting to capture the et?"
Yes Logan, people do weird things for obsession. For instance, when one gets fame obsessed and money hungry enough he may try something as barbaric as making a video making a spectacle of a man who committed suicide as an attempt to pander attention 🤔🤔
Hahahaha
Wrecked
This is put so beautifully 💀
Omg I remember that dude, I think his name started with an L and his last name rhymed with Mall, not sure tho.
Took the words right outta my mouf
The fact that he doesn't get the one character who disregards warnings and comes into the scene with a camera looking for something shocking...
Oh my god
Omg its litteraly logan going in the god forbiden forest😅😅😅
I'm surprised they didn't actually cast Logan Paul for that role specifically
I have agree with you Yes normal people wouldn't investigate, People with half a brain wouldn't investigate and these situations. However these aren't real people there movie victims they're supposed to make stupid Decisions like a good little victim, So that we can be entertained by their death lol
How long are yall gonna continously dangle this over the guys head?
@@lexismith3670 for as long as that clout-chasing shitheel keeps behaving like a foolish idiot
i love how the whole movie comes full circle in the end, Gordy was set off by a balloon popping and Jean Jacket was killed by a balloon popping. A coin killed Em's dad, and she used coins to take the photo of the alien's final moments
Wow, I didn't even notice that! Good catch!
I didn’t even make that connection lol 😂. Good looks 👌🏽.
OH MY GOD
OMG THATS RIGHT
Symbolism and thematic loops are crazy tight in this movie. I could literally write paragraphs and paragraphs of examples. Almost no detail or idea presented at the beginning doesn't come back later in the movie. It's clever as fuck
“You’re telling me this guy was willing to die to get a better shot with his camera” -guy who is willing to die for better content 😂
Also. - guy who was willing to film a person who HAD DIED for views. (Logan doesn’t respect nature, just like Jupe)
The guy who is getting punched by boxers to stay relevant
this comment section is on fire
Yeah he boasts about risking his life for content that he’s captured, he missed the whole point of the movie
@@tonybalony1811 The difference is Jupe had mental trauma and an explanation why he did what he did that could be excused. Sorry not excused reasoned with. he’s a broken man he’s trying to honour his co cast he had as a child. Logan has no excuse and is still a child😂😂😂😂😂.
The guy who exploited trauma for views dosent understand the theme of exploiting trauma for views being a bad thing
The lack of self awareness is amazing
its almost poetic lmao
I like how all of Logans questions were just A. Over-thinking a really basic question, or B. Completely missing the obvious
there was literally no in-between,,, it's honestly astounding how little braincells this man has
No fr like I didnt think the theme of the story was that hard to decipher. If anything it kinda slaps you in the face with it like 200 times.
Then again this is the man who has tried, on multiple occasions, to scam people with Cryptocurrencies with a “pump & dump” scheme, only to fail to effectively make profits off of them. And then recently he tried to scam others but ended up getting scammed himself.
He’s not exactly known for his brains.
@@thatfishguy4991 nah the problem with theme was that the main characters are not dealing with the themes.
his mind cant understand anything deeper then a kiddy pool or anything more shallow then a basic forgettable slasher film "remake"
This movie reminded me that even the most generic looking UFO would still be horrifying in real life
It was sooo yucky!!!
@@agtrots uap
Eh not really let's be honest... If you see a high tech UFO with weapons on it would be scary
@@lsd-rickb-1728 how does that make a normal generic one not terrifying lmao
well, it's a flying saucer type that looks like most description of Unidentified Flying Object
But its true nature is classified into Unidentified Mysterious Animal, U.M.A.
The shoe standing upright is a nod to the phrase “waiting for the other shoe to drop,” which means waiting for bad news or something bad to happen. So we are literally and figuratively waiting for the other shoe to fall and for the chimpanzee to attack Jupe as a child. So in a way. The alien eating Jupe and his audience is the other shoe dropping
I thought it was a bad miracle. It's probably both.
You have a source for that or you just making excuses for the movie. You know for a fact that’s what the point of that shoe was.
it’s a bad miracle
@@JamesT094 I mean, what’s more likely? That it’s a reference to a very common idiom that makes sense in context and adds to the themes of the movie, or that it was put in and focused on so specifically for no reason whatsoever?
The shoe was a reference to “Bad Miracles” which are explained throughout the movie. It’s is a random weird occurrence that happens in the middle of/during a random weird occurrence
Ok but the scene with the kids dressed up as aliens trolling OJ was actually so fukken scary. I was clawing at the arm rests out of sheer anxiety.
Me too. Maybe I was thinking the film could've been about aliens adopting us because of technical issues leading to human death and they simply still treat us like zoo animals though which would be grating.
I watched it with my parents and pretty sure it was the first time they ever heard me say fuck lol
god that scene had me fucking CLENCHED, but i almost died laughing when he actually decided to be a good horror movie character and just decked one across the face
What about the horse breaking through the windshield jump scare
i had to go for a walk bro 💀i couldnt take it
It is not unreasonable to conceive of a photographer who would risk their life for the perfect shot, especially when the character is specifically written with such a straightforward motive. His actions are a lot more comprehensible than the dozens of people who have died worldwide in real life while trying to take a selfie in unsafe conditions.
I always assumed that the reason he did it was so that he could get footage of what the inside of the thing looked like. Footage that nobody else would be able to get unless they were willing to die. And considering the alien spits out all non organic material, the footage could possibly be retrievable. I always thought that he was allowing himself to get eaten so that he could get a full up close detailed shot of not only the outside, but the inside. I don't think he was risking his life for the perfect shot, I think he was giving his life for the perfect shot.
@@SirVyke that's how I interpreted as well! Quite the sacrifice, especially considering how slow and painful your death is once swallowed by JJ (being that it digest you and all). Hopefully he didn't die in vain
@@SirVykeactually he was dieing
The scariest part of this is the fact that those people got digested alive, they didn't die a quick painful death like most horror movie victim, they died a slow agonizing death with many others along side them, screaming their lungs out
That is until they got crushed and squirted out
No they die instantly once creature starts digesting
@@sreejithsubhash7301 it doesn't work like that, it slowly breaks you down, in the movie you heard their screams
@@jamaul1391 not digested, more like held for digestion. When JJ is over the house, you can hear the screams stop instantly
@@sreejithsubhash7301 they don’t die instantly, you can hear them screaming in agony every time the alien flies over the ranch
The fact that he saw the TMZ guy and immediately thought "cool, an antagonist with a robo voice" is the funniest thing ever.
yeah, that's what the movie about a killer alien needed- a human bad guy
@@kingofmonsters14 there kinda was a human bad guy I guess? Jupe filled in the role
@@rhetiq9989 he wasn’t as much of a bad guy as delusional and misguided. I think he genuinely thought that he could manage this massively dangerous thing he “discovered.”
@@kingofmonsters14 oh
@@maddieb.4282 that's just human nature- normal people try that all the time with lions, tigers, and bears (Oh my)
9:37 oh my god it's literally mentioned in the movie, *one of the first things we learn about Jupe* is that he played a cowboy in a famous movie as a child! Keke Palmers character literally points at the movie poster in his office and says "You were the kid sheriff?" The well that's used to take a picture of the alien is a direct reference to that movie. There's even a voice over the loudspeaker at the theme park that says "come take your picture in the well just like the kid sheriff!" as OJ walks by the well. The park itself is another example of Jupe being stuck in the past and creating his own spectacles, since he made an entire theme part centered around one of his prominent roles as a child.
I'm convinced Jake Paul actually was on his phone for the whole movie
daniel’s character was 1. simply an introverted man who doesn’t necessarily speak without reason to, i know of many men like this in the real world 2. someone who understood animals better than humans and how to communicate with them, thus why he treated his human peers almost like animals such as slapping his knee instead of calling out to keke and brandon in the house to get in the van (how he would signal a horse over), and not being able to efficiently communicate with the movie crew how to handle the horse in the beginning. he didn’t need to speak his thought process out loud to himself for the audience to be able to understand why he’s doing what he’s doing because a person like him wouldn’t do that in real life, only for the sake of a dumb viewer like logan who needs film themes handed to them on a silver plate because he can’t figure it out for himself
I felt like Daniel Kaluuya played a cowboy spot-on. He also stood as the antithesis to the spectacle and greed criticized in the movie. Excellent performance.
He was the hero and Jupe was the villian
He genuinely had toe mannerisms of the western cowboy gunslinger down to a tee
i loved his performance
@@mentlinc idk, I wouldn't even call him a villain, really, he's not evil in the villanous sense, he has a certain level of hubris and what gets him killed is a false assumption about being protected from harm.
@@shitlordflytrap1078 he was deceptive and manipulating OJ and Em. He was using a tragedy for profit. And he caused those park guests to be killed. He wasn't a traditional mustache twirling villian but look at his actions.
I loved the idea of the UFO itself being the alien. I also like the idea of the alien having animalistic behaviors. No plan to wipe the humans into extinction and take the planet. It just kills to survive. The way it adapts to its surroundings was really cool, and I like that the characters pick up on it.
i’m not tryna be controversial but i liked the movie until that. it totally made me lose interest. it’s interesting to see people enjoyed it though
The thing that makes Jean Jacket special is that unlike other alien monsters it’s being treated like an actual animal. It kills not for the sake of killing and spreading senseless terror, but for the most mundane reason possible which is to survive. He really could be from anywhere not necessarily from space, but one thing that can’t be taken away from Jean Jacket is the fact that it’s an animal just like Gordy and the horses. It makes it feel much more grounded than most alien monsters
it's probably not an alien actually. because 1. red blood and intestines made to break down enzymes from earth 2. it hunts based on eyes (with white sclera) which are very unique to terrestrial life 3. it's adapted to move using air and requires a certain amount of internal air pressure to survive
I don't think it's actually even an alien, it could just be an animal that lives in the stratosphere.
@@corvoattano7430 I don't understand why people lose interest as soon as they discover the UFO is the alien. Like that's SO much cooler than just "aha funny alien in big spaceship want to dominate Earth". Biological vehicle concepts are fuckin awesome. When the aliens showed up in the barn I was genuinely relieved that my suspicions about it being people in alien suits was true, because that would've been the most generic shit if they actually were aliens.
Out of all of Peele’s movies, this is the most straight forward and blatant with its theme. Of course it went over Logan Paul’s head, self awareness has never been his strength
for the second question. In the movie, OJ asked Emerald whats a bad mircle? This also can go back to the shoe. it's strange and practically impossible that the shoe even stood up like that on its own, but the circumstances were bad and the whole thing was completely random. The shoe is a bad miracle. This also can go into Jean Jacket. It's a miracle and a complete spectacle that something like that exists, but in the grand scheme of things it was a horrible for the people.. bad miracle (although I don't think Jean Jacket was intentionally out to kill people.. in the movie they said it was a predator, just hunting)
I don't think the shoe is a bad miracle just because of the circumstances that happened around it. It saved Jupe's life, that's objectively not a "bad" thing.
Jupe turned the shoe into a "bad miracle" by misinterpreting his survival and marketing the shit out of his horrible situation. That's why he murmurs "you're chosen" right before Jean Jacket eats him and the Star Lasso Experience attendees. It's a "bad miracle" in hindsight.
i think logan paul and many other people hyperfixating on the how and why of the shoe is proving its own point perfectly. people would rather pay attention to the shoe (an unexplainable and rare occurance) than the literal massacre being committed against the actors by the chimp (violence, exploitation, any shitty but unfortunately common occurance)
side note, the irony of logan "Japanese forest" paul not understanding this fact isnt lost on me lmao
But the movie itself focuses on the shoe instead of the massacre. The film is telling you "pay attention to the shoe" during that moment, and it's totally valid to then ask the director "hey, what was the point of the fucking shoe?". The point of Gordy going ape-shit is pretty self-explanatory and doesn't really need further investigation.
@@peacemaster8117 The Movie was not focusing on the damn shoe where you get that you just proved dudes point the shoe proves that ppl keep looking at something that's not important instead of looking for the things that are important
Movie was ass! When an entire audience leaves confused it's trash. Just because you studied it and followed up with the directors explanations that he literally answered after the movie because no one understood it.
@@brentmichael4770 Just say you like to get spoon fed information and move on
@@peacemaster8117 there is this writing device called "red heiring" and its basicaly writer guiding audience's attention in wrong direction, when used corectly within context of the story it can actualy become a key to understanding story's theme when you look at the bigger picture/story as a whole
So the balloon thing tripped me up at first but it makes sense now.
Jean jacket attacked and ate the balloon simply because it's a thing that has eyes that invaded it's territory, that simple.
The balloon burst and killed jean jacket because after jean jacket ate it it kept flying upwards, this would cause the balloon to expand and then violently burst due to pressure differential.
I think the balloon burst because Jean Jacket chewed (ground) it up like he did the people. Either way, POP GOES THE ALIEN!
But the transition from big cowboy hat to flappy balloons is what I'm confused about, why and for what?
@@ninjanibba4259 as Elvis said, people had figured out not to look at it. So it was making itself more of a spectacle to attract their attention.
Think about cuddlefish or other cephlopods that use biolumenescence to lure prey, if the prey stopped responding to one pattern they'd switch to another. Also the "two animals fighting" are an octopus and a crab which is a subtle hint as to the level of intelligence of Jean jacket.
@@milhousevanhoutan9235 to add onto this: Jean Jacket didn't attack the balloon until it faced away from him: JJ's final form was a territorial display to keep his hunting ground. That's why it stared down OJ after he warded it off with the flags and reflectors. (the plastic horse had both on it and clearly fucked the alien up).
So it was defending its territory until the big threat (the Jupe balloon since it was large yet turned to face away from JJ unlike Otis Jr. and Em) chickened out and as such devoured it, causing the big boom we all love.
An animal's predilection to its nature caused the spectacle we all tune into see. For Gordy and Jean Jacket it was a popping balloon that spelled their end, an animalistic reaction to a "mundane" thing us humans are used to
@@milhousevanhoutan9235 I was under the impression that the alien was a bit smarter and was only keeping its "UFO disguise" because it was unnoticed. When it finally realized that it couldn't hide from the humans who were tracking it down, it showed its "true form" and continued to fly around in that form - both as a show of dominance and because it no longer felt the need to hide itself.
Someone pointed out that the masks of the alien costumes actually look like the sides of the cameras that were used to film Jupe's sitcom.
Also! I believe the alien unfurling is actually a defense mechanism meant to make itself look bigger in order to scare anything it feels threatened by. It's a pretty common trait quite a few animals have. And I believe if I'm not mistake, during the showdown between OJ and Jean Jacket, when it unfurls, the green center of it actually looks like an old camera! The amount of detail in this movie is legitimately insane, and I'm glad to see it's been getting the recognition it deserves.
Yesss!!! Actually I read some interviews with the marine biologist that helped in creature design and apparently when peele reached out to people in the field one thing he was really adamant about wanting was a “square eye” -like an old camera!!!!!!!! and looking for a possible angle to take from nature with that. The marine biologist basically reached back out and talked about how octopus eyes are kind of square-ish and they could build from there which they did. Such a cool process
It's a good way to drive home the fact that the alien is simply an animal in an unfamiliar ecosystem, aliens don't have to be completely alien to work and Nope shows that to great effect
The reason Daniel’s character HAD to be like that is because he doesn’t really do well with social interaction, he is an animal person he understands them better than people. And without that personality he couldn’t have been able to outsmart the alien.
The creepy cowboy themepark was themed after a western show that Jupe starred in - Kid Sheriff I think? There are posters on the wall in Jupe's office of promo material for the show where Jupe and 2 other actors are looking down the well. That's why the whole well/camera contraption was in the town to begin with. The set up is subtle and, I thought, very artfully handled. A lesser director would've spoon fed that to you
and it wasn't even creepy! it was literally just a theme park! he was a child actor that was discarded when he was either too old to act or didn't want to anymore after the trauma of the gordy incident (I can't recall if he ever specifies) but like. the guy's just trying to make a buck. what's not to understand.
Yeah Jupe got famous from his time on that western show, “Gordy’s Place” didn’t even finish it’s 2nd season due to the attack.
Wait so you're telling me the white guy with a flamboyant accent supports black creators man I wonder what kind of p*** is in Henry's recommendation definitely not interracial cuckold p***
Guarantee there’s a cut where they do spoon feed it to you even more, have you seen “Us”? A lesser director? He is a lesser director. The man is the definition of mediocrity. He’s made 1 great movie and 2 polarizing, pretty bad movies. So I’d say he’s not exactly a master. What is the obsession with Peele? He just keeps doing his best impression of an A24 film
It was spoon fed to you lmao Emerald and Ricky have a whole conversation about Kid Sherrif and how that got him the spot on Gordy's Home LOL it's about as subtle as a brick in the face.
I got a real Lovecraftian vibe from "Jean Jacket" when it showed off it's final or even possible real form, really reminded me of biblically-accurate angels. It's also refreshing to see a movie that you have to use your brain to really appreciate the effort that went into it's writing. Solid 10/10 from me, I'm now afraid to look up into the sky lmao.
Also inspired by the angels in Evangelion
i really liked this moive even though i didnt understand it also felt like the pace wasnt to slow or to fast
Let’s not forget the SCP vibe, when you consider the shoe.
I'm real confused by the "biblically-accurate angels" bit I've seen so many places. Like, I can't determine a single angel description that sounds anything like what Jean Jacket's like
I couldn't agree more! We are supposed to be scared and not want to look at the alien, but it's last form is so beautiful and angelic that you can almost not look away! It's way and seems like it's floating by pure magic!
Also,
The reason the theme park was a western was because before gordys home, Ricky Jupe was a child star on the show called Kid Sheriff, “ Little Jupe” as they called him. He was obsessed with his child stardom, his trauma from gordys home. The fact that Nope is so underrated is criminal. It’s such a good movie, so brilliant and amazing. I don’t understand how people didn’t get this movie
this movie is so underrated it baffles me when people say they didn’t like it. it is so much fun to watch and it’s just packed full deeper meanings if you pay attention. i hate how people write off movies any time they don’t get the message, there’s already so many films that spoon feed the audience it’s a huge problem that really reduces the quality of the films we watch. so thank you for doing god’s work this video was really validating lol.
"i hate how people write off movies any time they don’t get the message"
Maybe they got it but found it boring or tedious? Not every movie is for every person.
I got the message, and it was one of the worst and painful to watch movies I have ever seen.
I think this is a movie for "people who like to sit in a circle and decipher movies"
@@twistiefe that’s probably because u don’t talk or think about movies u just watch them like kid movies that just hand all the info to u
This movie was a waste of time and money. Deeper meaning? Cool, movie still sucks
The reason why Jean Jacket had an aversion to the flags was because it learned to avoid them after it tried to eat that plastic horse that got stuck in its mouth. It's an animal, so it can learn to recognize patterns in order to know what is food or what is dangerous to it. In Jean Jacket's mind, it learned to associate flags with "not food, avoid". Then, during the final battle with OJ and Emerald it realized that they were using the flags to keep it from eating them so it learned to associate flags with "food" again, which is why it ate that giant balloon of Jupe and ultimately died.
I'm pretty sure the monster didn't correct it's association of avoiding flags. Instead it attacked the balloon because it started flying and the creature presumed it was challenging it's turf not to mention the balloon also looked like a human and considering it wasn't capable of telling apart a real horse for a fake one it's likely the same happened for the big balloon.
The reason it attacked the balloon thing is because it challenged Jean jackets sense of being the alpha. Similar to the chimp. You can’t look in its eyes or you’re challenging it.
I think it didn't associate them with food again, it's just that flags and balloons are distinct things that an alien might not relate to each other
so what your saying is that jean jacket knows how to look out for red flags
@@conehead4133 Its*
A small note of the alien’s hatred of kites and balloons, it could very well be that it thinks balloons, kites and velvety cloths look like itself, like many animals in real life seeing something that looks similar to itself will cause an immediate anxious reaction especially for predatory species, seeing this giant balloon or the tube men to the Alien may have looked like possible competition on its feeding ground hence why it would get so sporadic and violent at the sight of them
Or just stuff in the air could harm it. I'd hate something that exploded me.
I actually thought that the alien looked a lot like a parachute or something made out of nylon, I like this theory a lot!
that's exactly how I read it as well. notice how jean jacket flashes its "eye ribbons" several times before it attacks the balloon - it's trying to intimidate what it sees as another big floating creature into leaving its territory, and only attacks when the balloon doesn't back down.
@@Pterosauria UFO*
The alien sucked up the fake horse in the beginning that had the flags attached to it. It got stuck in its mouth or wtv tf and from that point on it associated super bright colors such as the flags and jackets with things that could potentially harm it
I absolutely loved the movie. The first realization that it is a creature and not a spaceship gave me chills. And the scene after when the creature is at the farm and you hear their screams? Amazing, it reminded me of that frightening bear who mimicked its victims last cries for help in Annihilation. It was all so eerie that their cries for help was a warning sign to how close the being was. Those scenes are burned into my mind in the best of ways. Overall the movie was spectacular, and Daniel Kaluuya played his part wonderfully
Ok but Annihilation sucked ass.
My friend ruined the movie by giving me the biggest red herring before I went to go see this movie. He just said "oh just wait until you found out the UFO is a giant cowboy hat, it will make you think about the message". He knew that I look way too far into Jordan Peele's movies and so I took this as the "ohhh I get it moment" but that never happened, and I was extremely confused if I missed a scene in the movie. Afterwards I talked to my friend about the movie, and he mentioned he was just messing with me the entire time.
That is one evil friend
Logan Paul’s review of nope was “I didn’t get it so it was bad” Nope was an amazing project and while it isn’t for everyone it did exactly what it was supposed to and in my book it’s a home run. Even Supermega was like “it was good we just didn’t like that it wasn’t grey aliens” which is fine but that’s the point he’s flipping the stereotypical alien thing on its head and making something no one’s really done before
Seriously I’m kind of annoyed people are mad that a Jordan Peele movie wasn’t what they expected. Like yeah, that’s been his MO since Get Out.
You are completely right but tbh I didn’t really understand NOPE at all and found it hard to extrapolate meaning from it
@@louieb2563 and that's fine, it's just weird when people make it seem like something is objectively bad when they just didn't like it
people don't like movies like this because they lose their meaning. the whole film boils down to giving some kind of hidden messages that are not clarified at the end and this is considered "artistic". another thing, I really can't feel connected to the characters who want to make money in a situation that should be apocalyptic and where you have to fight for life and death. and finally the main thing. Does anyone really don't have a fucking problem with how the movie ends? the whole movie, all the preparation, all the damage the alien did. and they destroy it in five minutes.... in the easiest possible way without any struggle. and what? do I need to be like: OMG YEAH WE FUCKING DID IT
but hey, of course you won't say that you think some things are stupid, because then you will look stupid, because at the moment there is an opinion on the internet that everything that Peele makes has to be a masterpiece and that if you don't think that the movie is good, you are just not smart enough...
I can bet that if people didn't know who made the film, it wouldn't be nearly as successful as it is.
@@ziziisme 👍👍
It's a giant space cuttlefish, Logan. Just because it can do all of those amazing things doesn't mean it's ever seen a balloon before. So when the balloon challenged its territory it ate it, and then it went POP.
Overall I enjoyed the allusions back to the OG War of the Worlds. It wasn't mans' brains that saved them, it was their tiny germs. In this movie it was the space cuttlefish not knowing what a balloon is. *Sometimes we survive through dumb fucking luck.*
Also Logan Paul attempting a horror movie dissertation makes for some great comedy. Thanks for the breakdown.
So just like a real cuttlefish, it died by eating plastic
@@moshek7764 Most balloons don't have eyes the way the Jupe balloon did.
@@moshek7764 Isn't one of the themes of the movie about not using animals for profit, which in itself correlates with what you've just said?
Also, as to why they blew it up, wasn't that because it was after them and they needed to kill it before it could eat them, also, as to why they were trying to get a photograph was to show its existence to warn others wasn't it?
As for the part about it being an animal, that's also scary isn't it? The way this animal hunts, how it abducts people and lies motionless without being detected for centuries shows how scary it would be if it actually existed. If you actually it made it more relatable to animal behaviours, wouldn't that lessen the impact of how horrific this creature is?
@@moshek7764 We dont know how long this alien has been on the earth. It could have just touched down that year, which would make sense that it didint see something that looked like a balloon with eyes. What we do know for a fact is jupe had been keeping the creature in that valley for 6 months, feeding it horses he bought from OJs family.
@@moshek7764 Something on the ground isn't unusual to it at all, but when it starts flying up into the air? That's when Jean Jacket notices it. After all, Jean Jacket itself is a giant flying creature, so it's not hard to think it assumed the balloon was another alien, and thus a threat.
This movie is so great.
Also I felt so sorry to realise that OJ would never be able to buy all his horses back from Jupe, because all those 10 horses were fed to Jean Jacket in Jupe's show.
Poor animals, if OJ had known they were only used as bait he wouldn't have sold a single horse.
I mean, the scene at the beginning, with the horse freaking out when it sees its own reflection communicates so much of what the movie is about, provided you're not a self-absorbed steakhead and too busy tweeting to pay attention
“He’s Invincible”

Okay.
I was getting super tired of the whole title used as a catchphrase, but this one genuinely got me. 😆
@@dopesickdog why are there no awards on CZcams
The irony of Logan Paul not understanding the lengths people will go to capitalize on spectacle is just *chef's kiss*
What made me disturbed about this movie (and brilliantly so) was the sounds of the people getting digested alive. Like that was horrifying. I’m also terrified of monkeys…but that’s a story for another time 😂
@@user-eo1rq7fy9q
Yes.
Unless the humans got weapons and worked together but even then it'd be dependant upon the weapons and the chimpanzee.
6:45 There is a second interpretation here, that the shoe stands upright only in memory. In the Gordy Home museum, Jupe has kept that shoe in its case, upright, for years. Over time, the memory changed to match that of what he sells to his visitors. In other words, his obsession and monetization of spectacle leads to a distortion of reality.
I think Peele intended both interpretations to be plausible. Cool guy, fellow Kubrick fan, and I like it. No I love it.
yeah i think there's a good case to be made that all the Gordy scenes are from Jupe's memory rather than what literally happened (same with the fistbump)
yeah my read on it is that the shoe was standing up for just a second while he was looking at it, and it stood out in his mind so much that he remembers it as never falling down, because his attention was elsewhere in the moment that it actually fell. definitely seems like something where the memory changes in the process of the retelling.
Which could also be why he brought up the snl skit instead of talking about it himself, he doesn’t remember it right. Which trauma does.
@@rayy__7630 Also he probably didn’t want to recount the actual event
That makes sense! Because I think when Jupe first tells his story, he says that Gordy went crazy because someone said the word jungle and Gordy flipped out as a result-but in the flashback, the balloon popping is what made Gordy go nuts 🤔 hopefully my memory is right on this one because it would further reiterate the fact that Jupe is an unreliable narrator.
My cousin and I were able to figure out Gordy’s significance in the story within the hour after watching the movie, so I find it so funny to think about Logan just scratching his head and getting pissed about how nothing in the movie made sense to him when everyone else has basically a complete understanding of what the movie is trying to say
lol ikr if gordy wasn't in the movie the whole thing couldn't happen. He was the whole point jean jacket was in the area of our protagonist because jupe tried to tame jean jacket cus he thought he was invincible after the gordy incident and thought he had some type of bond.
Lmao that makes no sense
Tbh even if it didn't have any significance, it'd still be a really cool sequence.

lol you have too much faith in people,, read audiences reviews on this film on rotten tomatoes if you're ever in a bad mood. I promise it'll put you into an even worse one
Why is he surprised that an alien, who has never seen or known what plastic is, isn't able to identify it from a normal meal
Quick correction on small thing. The Alien cannot digest entire houses or planes or anything of that nature it would mostly get sick and have to spit it out the same way it couldn't eat the decoy horse. The blood rain was actually caused cause it had to throw up all the people to get the statue out of it's system.
I like movies that doesn't treat it's audience as morons. I haven't seen the movie but thanks to this video, I want to.
It’s so good! Highly recommend!
It treats the audience like morons and gives away the twist in the first few minutes just like every other one of Peel's movies because he just can't help himself and it's also filled with overly preachy garbage.
The movie's shot well and shows Peel's able to make good movies but always falls flat in the writing department.
@@courier665 what twist r u talkin about? I thought the twist was that the saucer was an animal not a ship and that wasnt revealed until half way through the film
@@mutterbutter9362 he’s trying to make it seem
Like it was super obvious that they were foreshadowing the ufo being an animal in the first five mins when none of that is true.. in fact the only spoiler early on is the fact that the movie tells you it’s main theme in the first 30 seconds with the Bible quote… the movie is all about spectacle literally hence the set pieces, themes, motivations for characters etc…
@@courier665 You offended at the "audience are morons" because you're one aren't you?
Maybe get education, watching "explained" videos to understand the subject more instead of biching.
I fucking loved nope. Most of the complaints I’ve seen about the movie always seems to be easily explainable things people missed from not paying attention.
The most complaints I've heard are from the bigoted racist anti-woke mob.
I loved it too
@@craigh5236 Definitely that too.
I feel like this movie is getting too much praise, it’s Jordan Peele’s fault if the audience doesn’t understand it. For some reason, people keep blaming the audience. The message is poorly executed, as the people risking their life still got the spectacle on camera. First hour was so insanely slow as well, I feel like Nope was very poor in comparison to the previous title. Us was very well done, with a great twist and everything wraps itself up so the audience isn’t left with questions that crucial in understanding the message. Nope feels all over the place, and I feel like Peele is way too good for you guys to excuse some obvious mistakes. I think I’m going to make a video on this, because all of the film critics I love seem to be giving this movie a pass on things they tear apart on other movies. If there this many people confused after the movie, you did a terrible job in your execution of actually delivering it. It’s so snobby for people to say “Oh you just didn’t get it,” rather than talking about holes in the development of the story.
@@ImKevPev I had very few questions when I finished the movie I understood it my self
Daniel Kaluuya played a stoic "Don't think about the emotions, just push them down" cowboy so damn perfectly. Completely believable to me.
Not everyone wears a clown mask, Logan.
I absolutely loved this movie, and I'm excited to watch it again to pick up the nuance I missed the first time. This seems like it's the type of movie that has some "OOOOH SNAP!!!" moments that are only visible when you know where it's going.
Also, love the spectacular twist that the UAP is an animal, and not a craft. Maybe "twist" is the wrong word, but it really farted in the corn flakes of all those "super smart aliens come to earth just to do something incredibly stupid" movies. Yes, Signs, I'm talking about you.
the kids pranking OJ was the ONLY scene in this entire movie that made me exit fullscreen (I watched it on my laptop last night). The moment I saw something move in the dark, my heart. DROPPED. The way it moved was so creepy too. It was too smooth. It was inhuman. I felt so stupid and embarrassed when they ended up being Jupe's kids lmao
Did Logan Paul really not think about how Daniel Kaluuya's character not only lost his father but his horse training business was failing as well? How that could've contributed to the characters' personality traits?
But I could be wrong maybe the character is just stoic for the sake of it but it's a stupid complaint. His acting was well done.
he's also autistic and can't make eye contacts
I thought OJ was a weak character early on but hes alright.Wished they focused on him a little more but thats that
I just assumed his character was just a naturally a mundane kinda guy. Just a dude living his life. In a movie that's themed all about spectacles it would make since the protagonist be a foil to that and just be a simple average Joe.
@@kidd4551 i think he was meant to be the straight man to his sister’s loud personality. always makes for good chemistry between a duo. that’s my interpretation anyway, as well as the fact that he just recently lost his father.
Maybe Logan doesn't know what it's like to lose everything and the threat of being broke and homeless so he can't understand Otis and his character 🤔
I'm surprised the movie got mixed reviews. I absolutely loved the movie and the idea that the UFO was a creature itself. Definitely a unique take on alien movies in general
Logan paul
People just didn’t get it ig
The concept of being sucked up and crushed as you’re being digested into something gigantic so your being broken down and burned by the stomach acids for a long time is a friggin horrifying concept
Well, Logan isn't exactly the brightest specimen of our species. Anything not explicitly explained to him remains utterly mysterious.
Logan Paul usually has the best judgement, can't think of anything he could do that wasn't fully thought out.
Underrated comment. ☝
Yeah, this is such a rare lapse in thought from beloved content creator Logan Paul. What a shame.
Usually?
It’s okay, he doesn’t expect to be forgiven.
Haha 😂
My favorite interpretation of the upright-shoe-anomaly so far has been that it was a literal representation of the saying “waiting for the other shoe to drop”. Steven Yuen’s character eagerly awaits for this shoe to fall, but it never does. Simultaneously, he is never attacked.
You know, I love this idea so much. I really do vibe with the way you put this together.
Question 5: wasn't that the inaugural show/grand opening show for Jupe's new 'spectacle', Space Lasso or whatever it['s called? And that;s why the mauled former cast member was invited/attended? He wanted the person not 'chosen' and was unable to see a bad miracle to finally experience a 'good miracle'.
You see and hear him practicing at night at the beginning of the film. His wife is shown on the phone earlier talking about press badges and whatnot. That's why the music timing is off and he has to psyche himself up with "I'm chosen." He's had practice feeding horses to Jean Jacket but this was the first actual show. Especially since Jean Jacket wouldve most likely have attached the whole show, like it ends up doing.
The TMZ guy wasn't even "set up" as an antagonist with a "grand reveal" he was a complete joke used to mock the "pull out your phone and record" attitude of the world today, and also quite literally a mockery of TMZ and their whole schtick of getting gossip by filming people all the damn time. He got knocked off his motorcycle, whined about needing his camera, and eventually got left behind to die because the only thing he cared about was getting a good story. If that's Logan Pauls definition of "an antagonist with a grand reveal" I can only assume assume he's used to watching movies made for 3 year olds
We loved it. My girl called it “the cowboy hat monster” we spent days talking about and dissecting the movie.
OMG, it does look like the bottom of a cowboy hat!!!😂😂
Look at Jupes poster
That actually might be the point
I don't envy you at all, but I am glad someone had good time with it, I tought that was impossible.
8:45 Question 5: this may have been the first show. They were passing out fliers and Jupe mentioned that it was the first show. They had rehearsed it, and he knew what was going on. But this was eluded to have been the first actual show.
The former child actress was invited as a special guest and for marketing/publicity to capitalized on the “remember the show? I was in the show! Tell your friends that Jupe from Gordy’s Home has a new show going on. Oh by the way, remember my co-start who was tragically maimed? Well here she is! Pay me sympathy money!”
In the first scene when they meet Jupe at his office, they walk past his wife on the phone and she's talking about the first preview show being that Friday and for friends and family only
The 40 people abduction was the 1st show for the public. You hear him rehearsing the speech earlier in the movie at night, as well as seeing the kids dressed as Aliens. On the actual show because there's a shit load of people it went for them opposed to a small gathering of a family watching JJ take a horse.
Exactly. During the Ghost chapter, OJ sees the lights from Jupe's ranch and you can hear Jupe's voice (the first time OJ sees Jean Jacket). It was super creepy - I thought those lights were the UFO (i.e. Jean Jacket). But it was a rehearsal. I was wondering how Jupe survived rehearsals, but I think Jupe watched from a distance and his voice was just a recording that you hear loudly.
@@MrDarksbane I say to think about it like a lion. Imagine stumbling upon a brush of grass moving, but you don't really pay much attention to it but yet it catches your interest. Jupe knew something was there but he didn't look too much into it. Now say you once see the brush move again and you see it's actually a lion chilling there, so now you want to see more, and you give it some food, some juicy raw meat. Jupe occasionally saw JJ but entered an agreement with the apex in giving it food. Then imagine after a few weeks of feeding this wild lion you bring a bunch of people to watch you feed it, and to the lion it looks like you just brought 1500x the amount of juicy raw and fresh meat. Why eat a single horse when you can have a human feast?
@@MrDarksbane I thought it was because they subtly compared JJ to Gordy. They originally start as innocent creatures. You can "train" wild animals while they're babies but like with Gordy, as JJ became "older" over the course of rehearsals with Jupe, he became more aggressive. (I don't think Jupe knew that JJ was eating people during off times from rehearsals.) You can't tame wild beings, no matter how chosen Jupe thought he was. ☠️ This is only speculation based on theories I read online though.
Logans question about the shoe makes me laugh so hard because he's literally proving the movies point about Jupe misinterpreting the Gordy Incident.
It isn't about the shoe standing on its own. It isn't about the incredible physics at play that allowed this to happen. It isn't about believing in miracles.
It's about looking at something "remarkable" in the face of something horrific. Jupe saw the shoe and was momentarily distracted from Gordy's rampage. He saw this rare occurrence and believed it to have more meaning than just "chance event that happened because of something terrible".
I love when the movie directly states the quote of "i will cast abominable filth at you, make you vile, and make you a spectacle" and logan cant understand thats the exact point the movie is trying to make. People desecrate things just for a spectacle
I'm so annoyed at how he called the man on the motorcycle "Mystery solely for the sake of mystery"
HE'S NOT SUPPOSED TO BE MYSTERIOUS. He didn't wear a mask to hide his identity, he wore a mask because the movie didn't want you to give him an identity. That man could've been anyone, not because you're supposed to wonder who it is, but because he has no face. He's supposed to represent a faceless brand.
Oh c'mon, he's definitely meant to be mysterious. He's wearing some weird sci-fi helmet that looks like it was specifically designed to stop him from accidentally looking at the alien, and the way he talks is intentionally creepy and ambiguous. It's not until he pulls out the camera rig that you realise what his deal is.
@@peacemaster8117 But his identity, his goals, they're not something you're supposed to solve.
@@peacemaster8117 The helmet design is so that Jean Jacket sees OJ’s reflection in it, causing it to think the guy is looking at it and eat him.
@@furcornmanwiththemasterpla8380 ok. so its literally mysterious
really appreciate your take on this.
i came away from that thread with very similar thoughts as well. i read the start of the thread the same day that i went to see the movie, and finished it afterwards. at first i thought it was a joke, but the further i went i just kept thinking “oh, oh no…”
Hi, I love your channel
Logan also seems like the type of person to think horror movies should just be jumpscares.
I see a lot of people confused still about the shoe and Jupe. The shoe is another "bad miracle" that Jupe in his trauma tries to find purpose in, but that's all it is, a way to cope with trauma. It standing upright in all that chaos is strange enough to stand out, but all it is is something with really low probability that managed to happen, like a coin landing upright.
It has no meaning, but like us the audience at the beginning, Jupe has _assigned_ it meaning, and in Gordy not attacking him sees it as a sign of being" chosen." He can't talk about the event honestly with himself, he can only describe the SNL reenactment with any fluency, but he clearly romanticizes what happened to him, which is not that uncommon of a coping response to trauma.
When he thinks Jean Jacket is a ship, he envisions the "aliens" on board to be a combination of the film reels on the studio cameras and Gordy's body. He misunderstands the animal, and much like Mary Jo Elliot and Gordy on Gordy's Home, takes advantage of it to make a "spectacle." Until the laws of the animal kingdom catch up with him.
Gordy, Jupe, Mary Jo Elliot, and Jean Jacket were all beings failed by the entertainment industry. Mary Jo was clearly unhappy behind the camera, and gets her face ripped off from a show she was likely being overworked on. Jupe gets his trauma then has to see it made fun of on national TV. Gordy and JJ are not given their due respect and lash out because of it. Hollywood mistreats children and animals. Hollywood takes tragedy and turns it into a spectacle.
Having Logan Paul respond to this specific movie in this specific way may be one of the most clear 'proof of concept' 'proof of excution' accomplishment of Peele and the movie. It's almost too perfect. I would also say, like, fucking, while Peele is giving his audience a lot of credit and treating us as adults able to critically think and process stories on deeper levels - I did not feel like the themes explored and the methods, storytelling, and visuals used to explore them were at all inaccessible. It's also a great rewatch - almost every element is doing double work, but it's not like the theme wasn't hammered home again and again through a first viewing. Some of the conversations around this have a lot of the vibes of Annihiliation and how people had apparently never encountered a metaphor before - but stupider somehow. But I do love some unintended, unironic self-reads. So I'm living. Great vid on it!
Seriously... I went from thinking, "this is a clever, well-executed way of tying in several somewhat vague concepts into explicit, but not overly dumbed down entertainment" to "this is a perfectly executed psychological concept, provoking the viewer through mirroring the message based on whatever role we personally have in spectacle and exploitation". I gained that extra level of appreciation solely through Logan Paul's ironic response. This general blind spot of his paired with the particular points of the movie that irked him in detail is so fascinating to me.
I'm not saying he has to like the movie or that he is a generally glib person. It's just crazy how that part of his brain that makes him the specific personality to have these traits also affect his ability to even know the reasoning involving the presence and relationship between these themes in the movie at all.
Can anyone honestly say they walked out of the cinema after seeing Annihilation and said to themselves "well, that was a movie about divorce"? The theme was shoved so far up the film's ass I could barely see it.
@@peacemaster8117 what?
@@kultytn he said: "Can anyone honestly say they walked out of the cinema after seeing Annihilation and said to themselves "well, that was a movie about divorce"? The theme was shoved so far up the film's ass I could barely see it."
Even if you don’t pick up on the deeper themes of the movie, the director has said that the film can simply be viewed as a summer blockbuster in the vein of Jaws; which is exactly what I felt was the closest comparison to its plot.
I think that's why this movie works well and Us doesn't. Us only really works as a strained metaphor, and falls apart completely if you actually think about it.
i feel like peele’s whole thing is like not explaining things all the way out and leaving some things open. also- the blood rain was just such a good part of the movie. when you finally started to realize what was going on.
12:06 a theory I’ve heard about why Jean jacket tries to eat the huge inflatable at the end is because it viewed the inflatable as another animal attempting to challenge Jean jacket for its territory. Up to this point, Jean jacket was the only animal in the sky and would only eat things to eat them. But the inflatable is big and “lives” in the sky, aka Jean jacket’s home. So Jean jacket ate it, not as a meal, but as a way to kill the inflatable
I loved the choice to have the final act of the movie set at day, it really puts the whole dark = scary convention on its head and still manages to be scary. I think this movie is more focused on making you feel dread and that you are witnessing something greater then yourself other then just making you scared, and in my opinion that is a much more effective form of horror, but it is so much harder to make. I loved this movie and it might be one of my favorite movies of all time.
It works really well due to the idea of looking at it directly angering it
One of my favorite parts of midsommar
That deep seeded primal fear of helplessness in the face of something unpredictable and menacing that eclipses your strength/power/mass etc. Also brilliant use of the parallel and tension with the chimp; a more familiar, tangible situation as a way to understand something more alien. Even if the viewer isn't consciously aware of this, subconsciously that dread is unlocked right before the film ramps it up. THAT is how you edit a horror movie
I'm sorry, but looking at a giant flying wedding dress in broad daylight was one of the least scary things I could ever think of. It sucks that the movie ended that way, because the _BEGINNING AND MIDDLE_ acts were genuinely some of the most disturbing horror I had ever seen, and I loved it. Then it just throws it all away with its stupid Michael Bay action movie route in the third act.
Reminds me of tremors if you ever seen that movie. All the scary stuff happens during the day
I actually loves Daniel Kaluuya's acting as well. He was literally the most relatable character to me throughout the entire movie and the one I sympathized with the most.
absolutely. that man is amazing. he nails every part he plays! he was “mundane” the rest of the movie because his father was just killed by a nickel to the brain, not a quarter. i loved that one womans shock and struggle inside when she heard OJ’s name for the first time too lmaoo
He reminded me of my father. Hardly reacted to anything unless it was life threatening. This is common in households were there are multiple energetic and charismatic members (like Emerald and their father). You’ll have one family member that is reserved and laid back.
And no matter his amazing acting, Logan Paul doesn't have an Oscar, let alone any movie award. He hasn't the experience to critic Daniel's acting at all
I fucking loved how they used the alien prank in the trailers to make it look like an alien was attacking oj, that psyched me out extremely
Daniel Kaluuya's character being quiet and reserved was the point, he's painted himself as an animal of prey, and can't look at the hollywood people in the eye, as they're predatory animals. That is not at all them making him "act poorly"
In the same way, Jean Jacket sees eye contact as a threat and when viewing eyes will lash out to protect itself. Just the way OJ's horse did. Here we begin to mix metaphors a bit, as while JJ is averse to eye contact as a prey animal would be, it also behaves like a predator, too headstrong and unpredictable to be "tamed." However, when it begins to view OJ as a threat, it goes into a defense mechanism, those quick green flashes from its eye. Or its "lens' rather, taking still shots of a black man on a horse, exactly like OJ's ancestor who was in the first motion picture in human history. None of it is without meaning.
Oh and the balloon used to kill JJ wasn't just any cowboy, it was Jupe. That's why he had that theme park, it was based on the show he was on immediately following Gordy's Home.
Ironic that Logan Paul didn’t get the message of this movie, when he also chased a spectacle so vile it almost tanked his career.
I watched Nope yesterday and I can't believe population were shitting on this movie. I really enjoyed it, the fact the UFO was the monster itself gave me chills. It really captured how terrifying unknown extraterrestrial can be. And it was explored in a new concept
I'm just waiting for history to repeat itself tbh, John Carpenters the thing 2.0
CZcams is weird because it's like "here is a commentary video about a review of a movie you haven't seen before and don't even really care for the genre of, would you like to watch?" And I'm like yes daddy more please
The correct term for a “glass case” in a museum is a vitrine. The base, that the object (and vitrine) sits on, is a pedestal.
the kid was saved from the rampaging monkey because he avoided eye contact. eye contact with primate is a sign of threat or imminent physical aggression. jeans jacket work the same way
Eye contact is a sign of dominance with most apes, and many other animals too.
@@My-Name-Isnt-Important I was always told this about horses. OJ would have known this.
@@My-Name-Isnt-Important Including humans! We still do it in arguments. Even my autistic arse who hates eye contact do it when I get into an argument and want to hold my ground.
I had a childhood fear of UFOs after watching a history channel documentary at like 8 years old. This movie did so much right protraying the sublime aspect of an alien lifeform. 10 year old me would've shat my pants watching this movie
The shoe is also an example of 'A bad miracle'. ;)
I absolutely fucking loved NOPE. It is one of the most intense and increcible films I've seen in a looooong time and can still talk about it for hours. There is so much love in the process of film making. And it's a horror with literally every other sub genre mashed into it. Thanks for sticking up for this marvel.
Also, the Chimp thing was also a reference for a real life story.
Yeah pretty much all of Logan's issues with this movie was him just being oblivious and dumb. His first "problem" is just... like did you even WATCH the fucking movie lol. It's very obvious why shit was rocketing from the sky by the time you get to the scene where Jean Jacket expels the human remains on the house. Even disregarding that it's still a small piece of metal hitting the most vulnerable part of a human head at high speed. I don't find it hard to believe that it'd punch a hole in the head and into the brain.
Another point he made that was pretty dumb was his last, the one with "how is this alien so biologically advanced yet it's basically a dumb animal?". Because having an advanced and intricate biology doesn't mean you're smart, like what? It's really the same thing with the clip displayed right after this at 10:59. Being highly sophisticated in field A doesn't automatically mean you will be in field B. Consider a jellyfish, the animal that heavily inspired Jean Jacket's creation. It's an extremely energy-efficient animal with a complex and intricate biology, but according to Logan this should mean that Jellyfish are smart and capable of advanced thought beyond basic instincts. No lol.
I think Peele finds a good balance of making his themes clear but also making you think to fully understand them. He doesn’t make “turn your brain off movies” but they’re certainly not rocket science. If Logan PooPoo doesn’t understand it, that’s on him, and it doesn’t mean the movie is bad.
It also doesnt mean the movie is good...
The audience doesnt need to understand the theme to like the movie and vice-versa.If he didnt like it,that's his opinion,who are we to say he's wrong?
Some really grown uo kids in this comment section I see...
@@jordancreed3003 I get that and I agree. I’m more so commenting directly on Logan’s criticisms. Where it seems like he’s saying the movie is bad because he didn’t get it. That’s my takeaway anyway.
@@jordancreed3003 Yes people are allowed to have different opinions, and if his opinion was just "i didn't like it" that would be fine. Except no, he went on to list a bunch of very obvious and easy to explain questions. Personal opinion =/= objective criticism, especially when most of his tweets are incredibly shallow
@@ButterflyScarlet I saw Logan Paul tweets after seeing the movie for the second time and you know what I got from those tweets?A normal person who watched a movie he didnt like ranting about it and giving arguments why he didnt(some good and some bad)and people criticizing it for beign Logan Paul,alot of the people here didnt get the movie them,do you really think all thus mentality challenged people on Twitter got it?Or did they just jump on the bandwagon,search the theme online or just "stole" their opinion from someone else?The reality is one:nowadays if you dont like something you are not allowed to say it because people will come for your head,try to say you didnt like Spider Man No Way Home the day it came out...only after million seen it and the bad reviews started to pile up could you open your mouth,lile a barrage who has a leak can be fixed and the only solution is the destruction of the whole barrage.
Now lets analyse Logan's opinion shall we:
The part were he says its not hard to conceptualize something disturbing(like the chimp and the UFO)but its hard to tie it to the plot and they did it badly-PERSONAL OPINION,I can competely see what he's saying here.OJ saying the UFO is an animal and should be treated has such comes for little to no forshading on the part of the UFO itself and it not attacking you if you dont look at it comes out of nowhere,I know he used horse training to realize that bit he had no reason to believe that it would work specially because in nature that sometimes work and sometimes doenst,that plot later forced Peele to transform the UFO to get rid of the weakness.
2-The coin and the key on the horse-He's wrong on the coin,it was explained,I also dont understand the meaning of the key when we see things falling out and OJ Senior death is explained later.
3-Shoe thing-Not even an argument,its a question
4-TMZ guy,absolutely correct.He's voice didnt have to be deep and robotic.I get that he was trying to dehumanize him because its supposed to represent humanity and the movie is about exploitation and the dark side of hollywood but Angel and the camera guy make for a more compeling plot point than this guy and people only be lying if they say they didnt taught he was an important person,completely dissapointed when he pointed the camera to Em
5-The girl that got mauled-There needs no explaining,she's there because she's Jupe friend and after getting attacked by a Chimp she wears a shirt that has her face before the attacking,tying to the theme of everyone knows what Hollywood does to people but everyone want in:CJ and Em do to nepotism,Angel because he's just a normal guy and even Jupe and this girl that even after a traumating experience still relieve their moment in the spotlight
6-Its about Jupe-This is easily missed by someone,not blaming him.I bet you most people dont know why Jupe did what he did without seeign a YT video explaining it.I went to see it with 10 people and none of them made the connects with the veil and the eyes nand the rest.
7-Horse title cards-Agree,Peele took that from a diferent movie and the movie would be the same without it
8 9 10 Completely agree with all of them
So,all set and done he does have some good points and some bad points which translates to someones opinion after watching a movie they didnt like without puting so much taught into it.
Conclusion,its Logan opinion and people dont like any of Logan's opinion beign good or bad.
@@biscuitboi9478 So?He didnt get the theme of the movie?How many people do the same thing?Also,some of his arguments hold true and are not even about the theme of the movie.I also know that most people didnt get the theme of the movie either and either search it online or just copied what other people were saying.Go back to his opinions without bias and you'll see that some are completely rubish and some are correct.The problem isnt someone giving their opinion,its Logan Paul giving his opinion,thats what got people mad.Would they have the same reaction if it was Zendaya?I dont think so.
Look at the fuss created around it,the same thing happened with Spider Man No Way Home,it seems people cant criticize the general public darlings

I loved Nope as a writer. It was great and I loved the historical references to the infamous chimp attack of Travis. It does not treat it's audience like they can't understand basic themes without being handfed. A refreshing movie. I haven't been so awed about a movie since Hereditary.
So it's a movie about how an alien is just an animal looking for food and gets exploited by humans for spectacle despite being dangerous and human greed is what causes the whole fiasco? Sounds like the most intelligent movie to come out in a while! No wonder Logan Paul didn't get it. XD
Smarter and more subtle than Morbius?
@@morenicginiusthegreat4227 nope
I mean I was confused too when I watched it, doesn't make me dumb
not that smart. it was fine. people are allowed to have their own opinion.
What's crazy its that you're talking about Logan Paul when YOU are the one who seemed to miss the main theme,IRONIC...
He didn't get it because didn't see anything wrong with what they were doing. If anything he's probably like "Bro it's so much easier than that".
i loved this movie for the facts that;
the ufo isn't just yet another saucer with little humanoids inside,
a lot of the horror/chase/spookiness took place in daylight, rather than only at nighttime,
also JJ's design is very awesome.
I think the point of the shoe is to demonstrate how we as humans will latch onto any supernatural event or sign as an explanation for our own trauma. The shoe standing up *doesn't* mean anything, but Jupe thinks it does because he has no other way to rationalize how he survived. He thinks the shoe was the sign that he was chosen, when in actuality it was just a shoe.
"See what you have to ask yourself is what kind of person are you? Are you the kind that sees signs, that sees miracles? Or do you believe that people just get lucky? Or, look at the question this way: Is it possible that there are no coincidences?" -Signs (2002).
I like to think Jordan Peele was subtlety hinting to this.
i think it means something mabe it’s connected to the moor man it makes no sense otherwise i don’t want this crap i want real awsers
@@O_2og it's a play on the saying "waiting for the shoe to drop"
@@O_2og Dude if your enjoyment of a movie is ruined by a single cryptic metaphor that isn't that important to understand to enjoy the movie, then thats your problem, man.
@@mattkoethe6691 I agree 100%. The shoe was his sign that he's special, and that predators can't hurt him. The other shoe never dropped, so the inevitable bad thing never happened to him. I will say, it would've been cool as fuck if, right after Jupe died, it cut to a scene of the shoe falling over in the display case.
Negative reviews shouldn't prevent anyone from watching this amazing movie.
overall Good Movie
well, any movie in general or show. People should make their own opinions.
I didn't completley get the movie when I first saw it, but Logan Paul's questions/takes makes me feel like a master of cinematic analysis
While watching this movie I noticed a blurry record in the background (which Keke plays when they fire up the balloon men) that looked oddly familiar, and I pretty quickly realized that Spotify had recommended me a song from that album earlier the same day on my Discover Weekly, the thing thats weird is this artist (his name is Exuma) has like 10k monthly listeners, completely obscure. I was so freaked out I almost posted about it on my snapchat story which considering theme of the movie is hilariously ironic, making a vapid spectacle out of something coincidental.
Considering the movies Logan Paul directed over the years, he has no room to talk about what is the worst movie he has ever seen.
Well, it's his opinion, so he can speak for himself. To him it may be the worst he's seen. Doesn't matter if he has made abominable films or not, he still has his own opinion of what he does or does not like. Just like you might really like a certain film, and it doesn't matter if you've made a film yourself or not, you'll still have your own preferences.
@@My-Name-Isnt-Important Nah. He don't get to have one. He's been shamed. You're lucky we allow you to have one.
@@SilkyLew Are you twelve or something? That is the most cringe inducing comment I've ever seen, and that's including racist cringe comments too. Like, you actually thought this out and then decided it sounded fine?
@@My-Name-Isnt-Important Lol. It got you triggered though. You thought you was make me feel bad for typing something obviously stupid? Lol
@@SilkyLew Triggered? No. More like embarrassed for you.
I like all of Jordan Peele's movies but Nope is his best so far I think. I appreciated that the movie had a simple thematic through line. As well as characters that don't constantly make brain dead decisions.
Also, I'll say that the Gordy scene is literally the most tense I've felt in a theater. Animal stuff can freak me out.
Also also, I never thought I'd see the day that Logan Paul actually over thought something.
I actually thought it's his worst. I dunno. I guess I didn't expect it to be so simple.
They don’t make Brain dead decisions? They said “nope” like every scary scene and did nothing but stood there 😂
Uh I am not trying to be mean but in my opinion Get Out is the best. you do agree with that right
@@du6167 That's what I appreciated. Get Out had a good balance of complex but digestible. Us got way too caught up in trying to explain its premise near the end. I liked that in Nope the viewer learns at the same pace the characters do (unless you're a big brain boy). The mystery did a great job of making me curious and not frustrated.
@@Watauro love them both but Nope edges it out a little bit. I love alien stuff and I love animal stuff so it clicks for me. Also, (and I know this is kinda shallow) Get Out isn't very scary or unnerving as far as horror movies go. Uncomfortable sure, maybe a little distressing near the end; but it never gave me the visceral white-knuckle tension that Nope did.
Oj's character is of a modern day cowboy in the midst of chaos that's why is like that the guy lived in his ranch for his whole life talking to horses and training them
I loved this movie, like you said it was a good, fun alien movie. Don’t see them much nowadays. It had some great suspense moments, some good scares and of course, spectacle. Plus the idea of making the “ship“ the actual alien is pretty genius. And think it pokes some fun at the whole alien beams up cows trope (where did that even come from anyway) by giving it an explanation: it’s eating them
Nope was my first movie I’ve seen in the horror genre, I don’t know the standards I should hold it to but I know for sure that Logan Paul is a vlogger, and not a Movie Reviewer.
I wouldn't say "horror" it's more of a scifi/thriller but imo it was a good original take on the whole "ufo" thing. Compared to most movie's in this genre made in the past few year's, definitely one of the better one's.
first horror movie ever? omg
My favorite part of the movie was when a BLU engineer just walked on to the set and when he was asked to leave the engineer’s hardhat floated up and then his neck extended up to reach the hardhat before saying “nope.” And promptly walking off
And then he just noped all over the film crew, truly one of the movies of all time
It's nopin time
yo my names there-
Engineer gaming
*before getting violently backstabbed
12:12 this part always makes me burst out laughing and I still don't know why 😭
11:33 JJ wasn’t doing that to make everything look at it, it was doing what many real life animals do and making itself look larger to scare off a threat
