I think the symbol was a three leaf clover because a four-leaf clover is considered lucky but because most people are normal that's represented by the three leaf clover
That is correct
Camartin That was my interpretation as well. A four leaf clover is rare and considered extra special which the organization was against.
I think Shyamalan said that this correct in an interview
Exactly. The three leaf clover is ordinary.
This could imply that there is a Fourth 'superhero' out there in this universe / story.
James McAvoy is an amazing actor
Oscar worthy
Spiffy Turtle should get 23 oscars if you get the reference
Damn straight!!
Its been a while since I was blown away by an actor. He was oscar worthy, I felt.
Renzo Pinto only 23? Which personality didn’t deserve one?
Everyone saying it's a bad movie but I think it's really good
It's Milan 10/10 for real tho
@@ebiweenotaweebie2067 not sure about "really good", more like good enough🤔
Who's saying it's a bad movie? youtubers are not reality. The mean in imdb is as higher as Unbreakable, Split and only one point behind The Sixth Sense. In Filmaffinity's average it's his best movie since Unbreakable.
Can you justify your judgement?
@@junkowl7539 I didn't judge anything 😑
They should've mentioned when Mr glass said at the end , it's not a limited edition it's an origin story
Kyri Thalis Yeah I know
DUN DUN DUN! lol
Love the secret twist ☘️.
The fact that this suicide mission was planned from the beginning and it was never mentioned by Mister Glass, proves he is smart as hell.
He saw the bigger picture and made everything happened.
Adolfo Mont exactly.....
I love it when i cannot guess the plot of the movie.
@@samfisher146 yes. And he knew what he did to Beast and didnt want the son to tell him the truth. He said not yet.
i mean, it was interesting.. but to reveal it RIGHT at the end just to be a twist, and then have their cover blown 3 minutes later, it was just so bizarre, why should we care haha?
should have been hints throughout the film. glass' character was definitely spot on though
Adolfo Mont but why did he want to die like I totally didn’t understand the movie that much
Like how at the end the three “connections to humanity” Joseph, Casey, Glass Mommy are wearing corresponding colors. Green, Yellow, Purple.
Glass mommy 😂
Or Mardi Gras.
They were wearing those colors the whole movie...
I loved the overall photography of the movie but that last image was beyond amazing!!
@@matsujonen not the whole movie
I love how it's all realistic. No cliche. People always behave negatively against something different. I believe this film is a work of genius. Perfect.
Another cool thing about the Kevin's dad twist was that in split he lay down flowers on a platform whilst an unbreakablesk theme plays before going to meet the beast.
Oh my God and the beast was turning into the beast on a train... 😱
well it wasn't really a twist, that was a major scene in split haha, and after we see david in the ending it was pretty much confirmed thats whoo was on the train
The train crash was for shadowed in split when Kevin put the flowers down at the wrecked train.
so you do not know what those words mean? great
daddydojang sorry it more “eluded” to Kevin’s dad dying due to the actions of Elijah
yeah i though that was explicit in split haha, i didnt know that was supposed to be a twist about his dad in Glass, it was like yeah..his dad was on the train? i thought after we saw bruce in split that was pretty clear
@@daddydojang Foreshadowed was absolutely the correct word to use. You are just a dick
Good catch. I missed that.
David being drowned in a freaking puddle was the worst part of the film
That honestly might be my biggest gripe with the film. Other than that I enjoyed it.
>his weakness is literally water
>gets drowned in water
why you so surprised? its like when batman uses Kryptonite against superman ...
vitoradsp I’m nit surprised, I just wished he hadn’t died so anticlimactically
Could have just SHOT him too! he wasn;t BULLETPROOF!!!
anticlimatic Bastards!!!
@@zodsinclair8500 I think he was actually bulletproof. He wasn't able to sustain any injuries fro the East Railway Train Incident. And from what I remember, the train actually exploded. The explosion of the train would've caused various debris to come hurling themselves at David, not to mention the explosion itself. David is truly Unbreakable.
I think the three leaf clover refers to the common human. Plebeian pride if you will .Super humans would be four leaf clovers. Mutants, outliers.
Or maybe three leaf clover means three villains
yeah definitely, the normal version instead of the unique one of a kind one
Kevin's death straight up broke me
Im usually able to predict movie the ending, by basing it off the fact that the good guys always win, I tried predicting the end to this one, and failed first time in a long time.......really really really good movie.
Shyamalan reveals the plot of the story earlier on the movie. He is buying a CCTV at David Dunn shop.
Ellie Staple's character is your basic Moscow interrogator; we're used to torture scenes, but the very best interrogators do it all by making their prisoners doubt themselves.
Geez.
first name "Mr.", last name, "Glass"...
He could have used, "last name ever, first name greatest."
First name "Mother". Last name "Fucker"
@Blair Rich how?
Wish there was a post credit screen for glass
they haven't planned the sequel yet
I’m cool with the Anti-hero Organization, to keep the story open for maybe a sequel or a good ending one of the three super powered people should’ve lived, to take the fight to the organization.
David Dunn went out terribly
Kevin went out very abrupt considering Split made us believe not even shotguns can stop him
and Mr Glass was expected his death was coming since the first movie since he’s is fragile and that flashlight could’ve brutalized him.
DarkAvenger yeh Dunn should have went on to fight the organization
Keven was not in beast mode when he was shot. I am pretty sure he would have lived in that case.
Kevin was shot when he was Kevin and not the beast, so he was vulnerable at that moment
This is strictly how I perceived the events leading up to his death. I know a lot of people weren't happy with how David went out, thought it was too easy to kill him, but this is how it makes sense to me:
Water is David's kryptonite, and he had just battled The Beast in the giant container of water trying to stay alive and focused so he could get out. While he was inside the tank, weakening every moment and using what he had left of his strength, he was not as strong as he would have been had they not ended up in the container of water. There's a moment in the film before it's revealed that the SWAT men are not there to help, where Joseph exclaims that his father is weak and needs help. The puddle was not an actual two-inch puddle. I'm not sure if you noticed but it was an extremely deep pothole in an earlier scene that got filled with water when David broke out of the container.
@@kianadowning4051Yup it was a deep Pothole, not a deep plothole.
“You like kevin!” -Hedwig 2019
Only people that watched the movie will get that.
The last time I trusted someone, I lost an eye....
The last time Glass trusted someone, he broke his ribs.....
*all of 'em =/*
The other thing no one is talking about is the fact that dr staple talked about another city with “super people” to handle. That could be a reveal for future movies. Can’t wait to see what powers they have!
You know what would be great if there were short films about people seeing the videos and reveling their powers. It sounds good
I was sooo sad when all 3 died
In unbreakable Bruce Willis touch a kid and hear scream the kid is kevin
That actually seems plausible
“Hi I’m Erik Voss”
*instantly nut myself*
Eww
Lmao 😹😹
I also liked how they were color coordinated to their persons at the train station
All three movies were amazing! Loved the plots twists - next up - ORIGIN STORY ON THE SHAMROCK SOCIETY! Keep up the awesome work Eric! :-)
I almost cried when I saw the rotten tomatoes rating for this absolute work of art.
An absolute brilliant movie!!! I loved the ending! Clever and unpredictable!
It would be better if David didn't die😣
I think David Dunn’s death was meant to be the way that it was, as a message that heroes don’t always go out in the most dignified ways, but it’s important that we don’t remember their death, we remember what they did that mattered.
The clover is a three leaf to represent the normality of mankind. Most clovers have three leaves, but Dunn, Kevin and Elijah are “different” or “special” meaning they’re the four leaf clovers. Ellie Staple’s organization exterminate superhuman beings to equalize humanity, so that way there, everyone’s a three leaf.
I loved this movie. It worked great within the universe.
Bingo. I think people are going in with unrealistic expectations. This movie fits perfect within Unbreakable and Split. People need to stop thinking about other comics or hero movies. I even had a few people I know think it was going to be an action movie!!? What in the hell made them think that?
I couldn’t agree more. I just went again and they’re so many hints. What made this so much better was things were very subtle.
@@5elect5creen Something small but I noticed was when we see Willis enter his home the camera pans slightly to the left when he puts his coat on the hanger. As soon as saw there was only his coat I knew his wife was dead.
It's a secret society, key word: secret!
It’s perfect the way it was. He was smart enough to get the message out. He did what he tried to do.
Did we need an ending explanation? The characters all explained it to the camera as it was happening
some people are more stupid then you think
I think at the end in the train station/subway scene there was a news flash on the big monitor saying 3 psychiatric inmate have died, if people read that news and also saw the leaked footage of these 'superhumans' getting shot and drowned it would be rather hard to ignore and most definitely raise questions leading to whole lot of exposure not to mention legal issues.
If the 3 had not died as Mr Glass had planned, it would likely be viewed as a hoax and people would naturally forget it after a while.
I like the surprise of this secret organization. It leaves the audience to question, who or what they are. Also keeps us guessing.
Yes they should’ve hinted. It’s not a good twist if there isn’t a basis, no matter how small
Since Glass is now coming out on DVD, you should make a few more Glass related videos. I'm sure a lot of people would love that, because I for one should
if you go back and watch the first movie they foreshadow the secret society at the 1 hr, 12 min and 18 secs mark when Mr glass had left a message on David's answering machine.
ooooooooooooo gona watch it now
The shamrock organization restores balance because even with heroes there will always be villains. But i can see the logic because Elijah and the beast have caused a lot of deaths and chaos to innocent people.
Literally just came back from the movie theater after watching Glass. I needed this video...
Thank you for explaining properly
I had a feeling that something was up when they were just arrested and imprisoned without any trial and the focus on installing the cameras was a giveaway to me that they would later come in play. I know people are pissed at the ending but I feel like it ended as real as possible. Though a showdown at that tower would’ve been nice to see.
The three leaf clover as a symbol of unspecial. No supers- means they fight for the normals, no four leaf clovers.
By far my favorite channel
have saw this yesterday. No joke hoped your make a bid on it. Thx 😊
The ending was about how the comic book world was considered to be reality for them. The whole point of the Mental hospital was to convince the 3 that they were ordinary people who were mentally crazy. They soon get into conflict debating weather if its true or not but the truth is its true...?
Nice work
Great video
I got the shadowy organization twist early because on the doctors office, blurred in the background on s shelf is a book called invisbles which is about a conspiracies and shady groups.
I liked it as a reveal in this movie because it solidifies them as a secret society
The last shot was so dramatic lmaoo
Wow brilliant film. I loved it. I got batman vs superman vibes not in a bad way or copying way more in a deeper deeper level, two completely different movies but the reaction of society to something thats different also the characters have traits with general zod, doomsday, batman, superman, lex Luthor, especially mr.glass and his actions. His actions have a similar affect has lex did.
His plan was to bring together a group of remarkable people. To see if they could become something more. So when they needed them they could fight the battles that they never could.
Hey rockstars y’all are awesome keep up the good work!!
Dr. Elle staple states that once one 'hero' popes up another one does as well but opposite and of course Bruce Willis is unbreakable whereas Mr. Glass is verry breackable does this also mean there is an opposite of Kevin? What would he be how would you be opposite two Kevin's powers?
He actually did mention them in the first movie
Yeah I was really annoyed with the way they kill David and how they killed off Kevin I thought that was dumb and wasted potential
It Would've been awesome if David had lived and instead taken to the Organization's leader so that they'll use him to hunt down other metahumans.
The leader would've been played by Haley Joel Osment
It was great as is! Hoping for more...
It's a 3-leaf clover because those are very common, just like normal humans, as opposed to the 4-leaf clover which are rare like David, Mr. Glass, and The Beast.
If we didn´t have this gigantic twist, the name of the movie wouldn´t make a lot of sense. It is called Glass because we have a 19 year plan revealed at the end. I was REALLY chocked with the ending, loved it, got out of the theather with my hands shaking.
The reason they use the three leaf clover as a symbol is because a four leaf clover is very rare and those supers are rare like a four leaf clover
A good explanation I heard about the 3 leaf clover is that it symbolizes non powered individuals as being the “norm” in contrast to the rarer, harder to find 4 leaf variety representing those with abilities. I thought the imagery was a nice touch.
I started LMAO when I saw (M. Night) in the movie😂
FIRST! Also love the vids
I liked the final twist. The fact the origanization exists and we find out at the end is a good mic drop to say this is all real, and there are others in the world. If we knew of the org early the rest of the story really didn't matter.
Someone said that the shamrock with three leaves is ordinary. Four is special and rare. I think that's why a secret organization trying to kill special people would use that symbol.
M night has done it again, well played
Good video
It’s crazy Mr.Glass could have broken out of that facility whenever he wanted. He chose to stay he was never broken!
You didnt understand clover thing. Three-clovers are most regular ones as normal humans are, while four-clovers are rare same as superheroes would be... Three-cover is their symbol for normality... Call it also nazi ego...
In the end they broke the 4th wall looking directly into the camera, hinting that the viewers of origin story are in the real world.
the ending was just MIND BLOWING!!!!
The machine mentioned in the vision, was it the laser? Or something else?
This whole movie was supposed to set the stage for more movies in the Unbreakable universe. That’s why Mr. Glass told his mother it was a origin story.
Such a good movie
Samuel L Jacksom
Bruce Willis❤️❤️❤️❤️💯✅
James Mcavory *
Anyone else flinch while watching the flashback of Baby Mr Glass getting REKKT on that tilt-a-whirl ride?
It was awesome movie
I kept checking the remaining runtime thinking, "Ok when are they gonna do this tower fight?" Saving the rapid-fire reveals for the third act was a worthy payoff for not getting what I was expecting. Loved this movie.
I would've like to see glimpses of other people using or coming forward with powers
I think they have a three leaf clover to represent the normality they try to regulate amongst humanity. The four leaf clover, a mutation in the plant, would represent the 'super heroes', which they try to quash
Every shadowy organisation is a gangsta until Dr. Manhattan arrives without clothes.
2000-2017, a 17 year gap between movies that connect together
2017-2018, at least you have something to reference
oh its... glass... i haven’t watched it yet...
I thought the twist would be either 1) Dunn and Price were just two more personalities of Crumb...or...2) everyone in the hospital was a super hero under "treatment". That would have been epic, I think. I haven't seen this yet.
Yes
Great film👑🎞
I might need to watch this movie a hundred more times just to catch what’s going on
I loved how it was handled, I didn’t see any of that coming. I was really bummed out at first when they all died, but after I thought about it I realized that none of them were immortal. You could see how old Dunn and Elija were getting so you knew they were going to die, so it changed my thoughts on how I felt about that. I can’t wait to get the box set lol
I was fine with them dying. I think some people are so used to comic/super heroes NOT dying that they forget this movie is more grounded in out reality then a marvel or DC movie. They were just people with abilities. Look at Willis he was going after low level criminals for gods sake lol.
People were surprised about the train thing? That was pretty heavily hinted at in Split.
The twist reveal was perfect as the Audience were also made to believe the logical explanations of the doctor and get gripped into the movie!!!
Anyone else notice this movie takes place December 7 2019
i hope m. night shyamalan expands on this idea with a reboot or something
Loved the movie. Just wish they all would’ve lived so we could’ve seen more ,
Rejoice!!!
Ok I will bite. I don't think they should have done the reveal of the organization earlier. What the movie needed was closure in the form of an awakening. Yes the videos got out but they should have shown even in the end credits, a clip of people coming out in violent ways to give credit to the the organization's existence. That's all they should have done on that topic. They actually still can do something like that as web episodes they post to CZcams.
i know most people were expecting a climax ending like all superhero movies, going to the building having a climax fight and stuff but this wasnt a comic book story, this was an origin story
I really liked that they didn't hint the society. I was totally shocked at the ending!
Very ballsy of Shamalan (I can't spell his name XD) for killing all three of them off. I'm just sad no more Kevin Wendell Krum
The Movie Should've Been Called Mr. Glass
It was...minus the "Mr"
The name of the movies have been qualitative for the main characters.
I thought it was a conclusive end to the title theme chain. Unbreakable>Split>Glass. In this final film these strong "unbreakable" characters shattered and died like regular glass.
And it wasn't.
