Hi! I didn't really know what to make of the ending of 'A Quiet Place: Day One'. I was very critical about it in the original upload of this video. Which generated A LOT of discussion! I'm still grappling with it. And I'm not too happy with how I interacted with the issue. It's more nuanced and complex than I first thought. So for now I have edited out that segment. And I will do a deep dive into all the films if 'A Quiet Place Part III' comes out :)
She was on her last days , without her pain medication. She was able to save someone , but she couldn’t be saved,it was either die suffering a slow and painful death or go out on her on terms , either way she dies. I love that ending it made sense. She had already come to terms with her death at the beginning of the movie.
Thanks for your comment! I see where you're coming from.
didn't really matter how she was going to die it was inevitable.
💥 Without question.
@@onlyjoking73 same for all of us… even in a world without the creatures.
Her death did not make me sad. She was already dying, and she died on her terms in this movie instead of wasting away and possibly being in pain again if a supply of pain medication wasn't procured. I don’t agree with euthanasia for people who are not actually terminally ill, but then you have people who don't even think hospice, and the choice of withdrawing treatment are OK for a dying person. Hospice isn't to hasten death, and some people chose quality of life and comfort measures over being violently ill from chemo that may only add months to their lifespan.
Ah thanks for your comment! I see where you're coming from there.
I’ll second that.
Sad…No.
For what little is worth…
I was so proud of her I was crying.
Go get your fucking pizza people.
Let’s fucking GOOoooOo!
Sam calming Eric and his tears and anxiety before she tells him to take good care of her cat and to RUN before she takes steps to draw the Aliens away brought me to that chest tightening feeling and big tears rolling down my face effect as did every other Quiet Place film has and I'm hoping a Quiet Place #4 in Washington DC or Roswell.
I loved your whole movie review the catching the meanings of all the connections each movie had until your synopsis of the end. The title Day One does end well with Eric and the ship leaving and a future for the world and hopefully an opportunity to make Quiet Place #4 (🎉). Back to Sam choosing her joy and the music (ears buds with Harvest Moon playing for ( I'll call him John) and Evelyn enjoying their time of love in anarchy, another connection). I just see the connection with John giving up his life for his children. The Daughter (I'll call her Sara since I can't remember her name) taking many chances with her life for the sake of everyone's future. Then Sam in her own way pulling the plug on herself but how many other people do we not see that are escaping the Aliens while Sam plays her Father's music leading to her death- there could be another movie where a military soldier is given the opportunity to run and make his way back to his military base (perhaps in Washington) and the big show where perhaps the soldiers not believed and it's up to him and his crew to start a huge United States saving scenario and then Quiet Place #5 it will become global defense against the Aliens.🎉
To me her death was sad but it was because I had come to be so attached to her and somehow hope that there was a way she could keep surviving, I was happy in the end that she got to go out on her own terms instead of struggling without pain meds in a world that just didn’t have the capabilities to care for her
i feel like you are kind of brushing over the fact that without her medication (which was very hard to get) she literally is unable to move on her own without excruciating pain...
Thank you for your comment! And I understand if you disagree with this. I can't begin to imagine what it's like to live with that sort of pain in such dire circumstances. And it is a sensitive topic with a lot of complexities. But I think that even so, for the film to say that the only thing left for her to do is take her life... I think that's a pretty bleak outlook on life which undermines the first two movies. For me, the real problem is that the film frames it as a 'triumphant' ending. And I would never want to see someone's suicide as something 'triumphant'.
I agree. I think what they met by triumphed ending is Sam beat her inner demons and felt good saving Eric and Frodo. Just letting the cancer win she would have died slowly and terribly. So she allowed an “angel” to grant her a mercy killing.
Very different scenarios
Suicide is a very touchy subject.
Where this is more of a justified ending bc of her terminal cancer
I just dont think your comparisons add up.
@@smooth-handle it is justified. Her cancer was killing her body anyway. She wanted to die contented not in pain. my mother died from it. It is not pleasant. At all.
You have to really hate yourself to suicide in that way, the worst and most painful way possible.@@ThorogoodFilms
She is already dying and w/out meds she will die slowly and painfully.She just wanted to eat pizza
Wrong.
It was CLEARLY NOT about "just eating pizza" but actually the Memories of her father, who she mentioned used to take her there. It was THEIR spot.
This was further emphasized at the very end when she went back after she'd gotten Eric safely to the boat. She's seated in the burned pizzeria holding a photo of she and her dad, when she was a little girl, in that very restaurant.
Her relationship with her father was obviously very special to her and she must've wanted to honor &/or feel Connected the beauty of that relationship before she passed away.
This isn't a difficult concept to grasp,, people. ;)
@@robinvolpi that’s what getting the pizza means smarty
@@Loch1210Not about her desire to quite literally eat pizza, which is what you expressed.
@@robinvolpi her memories are what going to get the pizza represents .you’re not telling me anything I don’t understand.
@@Loch1210
It comes across as very literal, and I've seen my share of commenters who couldn't seem to see beyond Sam wanting a slice of pizza.
So if true then good for you. ;)
I believe the director and writer have already established the theme of "Sacrifice" in the first part. When Lee took his life to protect his children, it resonated with Emily Blunt's line: "Who are we if we can't protect them? We have to protect them." This theme continues in the third installment (a prequel), where Lupita sacrifices herself so that Joseph Quinn can stay alive. Lupita's life and soul, symbolized by Frodo, are entrusted to Joseph Quinn. Additionally, if Lupita had tried to reach the island mentioned in the second part of the film, there wouldn't have been any nearby dispensary to treat her cancer.
Don’t conflate the message of Day One with the message of the other stories. She died because of her cancer, not because of her loneliness or lack of hope. Many many many people who suffer terminal illness want to have control and happiness in their lives. Your political and philosophical views on the right to death are your own but they’re not the moral standing for everyone. She outlived the death angels and chose to walk into the inevitable on HER terms and without pain and without suffering. That’s is beautiful. It’s not suicide because of depression or hopelessness as many of us who are suicidal feel. She just wanted a happy day, and she was already dying. She got her perfect day and she got her happy day.
Man this frustrates me. The right to a good death should be allowed but people’s personal beliefs are getting in the way of that and allowing suffering people to suffer more and more. Life wasn’t a choice but if it’s between a good death or a painful life, I’ll go for my pizza and smile to the end.
👏
My daughter deals with debilitating pain daily because of her disorders,and must take many many medications including pain medication that barely touches it. After 4 attempts, many hospital stays both for "mental and physical" (all because of her pain) and MUVH MYCH more she Chooses life. This is indeed a FCAT of her real life. Where my kiddo chooses life every waking cruel painful moment,some in this movie laid down there sacrifice. It's all who one looks at it. 😊
What an excellent, eloquent and very honest response. I agree with you wholeheartedly.
My theory of why they don’t eat their victims is because they kill anything that makes a sound because as we all know they are sensitive to sound maybe so sensitive the slightest sound hurts them and they attack out of pure instinct to get rid of the pain
nah they just randomly attacked random things that made sounds
The director actually revealed that they take humans and use them as some sort of fertilizer to grow their food source and feed their young.
@@M_.M979 nice
To the viewers who continue to declare that Sam really desired pizza in her last days... 😬💆🏽♀️ lol
It was CLEARLY NOT about "just wanting pizza" but actually - the Memories of her father who she'd mentioned used to take her there.
In fact, It was their spot.
This was further emphasized at the very end when she went BACK after she'd gotten Eric safely to the boat. She's seated in the burned pizzeria holding a photo of she and her dad, when she was a little girl, in that very restaurant.
Her relationship with her father was obviously very special to her and she must've wanted to honor &/or feel Connected the beauty of that relationship before her passing.
This isn't a difficult concept to grasp, people. ;)
Also the ending is hope for life when Eric makes the boat. That boat are the survivors on the island in Quiet place 2. That means Eric is on that island with the Lee’s daughter. In Quiet place 3 he can help get her back to her mother and he will have learned that bravery and sacrifice from Sam, who helped him live.
Thank you for this… I knew I recognized that black guy on the boat from somewhere, but I didn’t realize he was the guy from the island. This is cool to realize both stories will likely come together in the next film.
Sam’s poem that Eric read explains her death. When someone is sick for so long and move tho hospice is because there is nothing left for. Doctors to do. Sam was waiting for dearth to come, but instead went home, relived memories and most of all made peace with death. She did not committ suicide she did on her own terms
I can tell that you’ve never experienced pure pain and a life that constantly surrounded by death. Her death was freedom. Her death was on her own terms. It wasn’t that her life wasn’t worth living, she wasn’t depressed. She was in complete and utter happiness. Everyone she loved was safe, bc of her. Unless you’ve been in complete physical pain with no one (for her an entire city) by your side is one of the worse experiences.
So you choose to be violently slaughtered by an alien? I guess.
“i can tell youve never experienced pure pain in life” bro just cause youve been in pain doesnt make you any more right and why are you assuming something you dont know is true or not and acting like it is
I think this is more on the message of 'living'. Sam wants Eric to 'live' not just survive. The hospice was brutal on her mentally, all she wants is a slice of pizza and none of them can give it to her. In the hospice, she wants to die, she was waiting and slated for death. She had no choice in where she can go or what she can eat or do, she had no dignity and no friends. In a way, she was already dead, both physically and mentally, she was a ghost throughout the film. After meeting Eric, she truly lived, hence the note, and enjoyed living, even wanting to laugh at Eric's magic trick. She had a choice, in reading, in going to Harlem, in saving Eric, giving Eric the means and will to live, in saving Frodo. In the end, she lived through being bait and it was probably the best days of her post-cancer. My mom was stuck in the recovery ward for cancer treatment for 3 weeks and she said she would rather forgo life-saving treatment than stay there another day, and I think there is something about living and surviving that the film wants to tell us.
I just came back from the Cinema ...... I really enjoyed this movie, it has a very bittersweet sad ending.
The dignity was her choosing her death as a moment in which she was not in pain before her meds run out, walking along her favorite streets, and listening to her favorite music. She also was able to arrive at greater purpose by her being able to save Eric and provide him the chance to live the full life she would never get the chance to due to her cancer. She had been stuck in the other stages of grief over her own life, namely anger at that point, but she was able to finally reach the acceptance stage and let go of the anger. This level of acceptance partially comes from how nurturing Eric is towards her in helping her feel joy again, which reminds her that she had indeed had a joyful life before she got cancer.
I mean, obviously, suicide is no trivial matter, but I think we can still appreciate the nuance of suicide by self-sacrifice and the case of a character like Sam in which the ultimate act of power is to at least choose when and how to die as opposed to just wasting away with no control, hope, or sense of comfort.
I felt that you disagree with Sam's decision at the end of the video and you see it more as suicide than liberation.
Everything you said is easier because you are not in her situation. She is free now and she knows Frodo is safe, that all that matters. It was beautifully done .♥️
I completely disagree with your understanding of the ending. Yes, she did choose to end her life right there but she went out on HER OWN TERMS.
She already felt like she lived her life ie ate pizza, made a new friend and saved him and her cat to live a better life safe. She even thanked Eric for helping her with her little quest and made her feel alive again. She already faced her demons and accomplished all she needed to accomplish. AND THAT'S THE THING. She already did so much leading to her own end of days and found an appreciation of life, not a newfound appreciation for life. She knew she was terminally ill in the first place and chose to go out on her own terms.
She helped someone live while feeling like she already lived hers
My theory is that the noise made them go insane. Hence, they destroy the source of it.
People have the right to decide when they want to go. In the movies case, she found hope and joy one last time which is all she wanted. She was able to help someone else escape because she herself is unable to escape her own fate, so she ended things on her own term.
There is a reason why people get DNRs and Living Wills/ advance directives.
The message of this movie was not "go off yourself"
It was to live on your own terms.
Wasn’t there a giant new monster in the scene where the monsters were eating the shrooms??
Righttt this is what brought me to this video, i thought the same
I hope they explore that scene further in another movie or the new game coming out this year
They are making a fourth film set to be released next year.
Yeah the first seconds it shows it’s bigger , thicker armor
She had Cancer and was dying anyway. So it makes a certain sense as she picked the way she would die and didn't wait.
I can agree that the ending was unexpected mostly because of the last letter that she wrote saying that she was thankful for finding the value of life. Wished that the ending was about her also making it back to the boat and getting to the island.
That's what I was thinking! Or if she discovers other survivors still on the island that she can help to the boat in her last days. I think those would have been better endings.
@@ThorogoodFilms The unwillingness of the average person to accept the realities of life is why many movies have a happy ending. Pretty Woman had an alternate ending that was more realistic, but the public couldn't handle it when it was tested. You seem young and doing well. You think of her discovering other survivors and helping them to the boat as if she has strength for that or would she a burden to them? Should they risk their lives trying to find medicine for her and then she would live with that guilt if they died? Freedom is about choices and options and yes, that includes belief systems and what people do with their own lives. In the end she accepted death and she died with dignity. Maybe the message is about accepting other people's freedom to make the best choices for their own life. I'm not seeing how the father sacrificing himself is different accept that you empathize with that choice more. And yes, I'm a Christian too.
I'm cool with her decision to die, but to get ripped apart in a gruesome way by the monsters counters the point of a peaceful death tbh.
I have cancer and the pain of it engulfs your whole body. She was going to die in pain either way.
Exactly 💯
it seems pretty quick tbh
@@plasmaxl8626yeah it’s not like they eat u alive
I understand why she did what she did at the end of the movie. In the beginning she shut people out and refused to connect with other people. but throughout the movie she connected with eric and enjoyed life. It's some serious growth on her part. At the end she embraced the art that she loved once again and although it had her killed but it's ok because she has lived her life and in a fulfilling way, not in a way that she's literally counting down to the days she has left.
Anyone else see that large male death angel that was with those three other death Angels ?
i thought it was some sort of female, meaning the death angels run on some sort of queen system
@@paradigmprime3582 we don't know, is that actually a female or male, but I really think is a queen, in my opinion.
@@Thebigstar.67 that's true
@@Ghost_1_1904 thanks
Your insights into a movie’s deeper meaning are meticulous, meaningful, and entertaining. I’m shocked, then, that you’ve missed the point of Sam’s suicide so unreservedly.
You dismiss her terminal illness as if it’s incidental to her final act. To the contrary, her imminent death is pivotal. Uncharacteristically, you overlooked Sam’s poem -- the title of which, if I’m not mistaken, is “I’m Bad at Math.” The text reveals that she is out of time:
“You said one to two years and it has been two.
You said four to six months and it has been six.
You said seven to eight weeks and it has been eight.
You said nine to ten days and it has been ten.
You said it would hurt and it does.”
Sam said she saw her father die the very way that she is dying. She knows it’s over. Her dying wish, her kick-the-bucket list, is to go “home.” Her wish granted, her painful death at hand, she takes control. She writes her final chapter. She cheats the Grim Reaper, as well as the Death Angels, from determining when her last ties are severed.
In short, she cheats at math.
Many people -- nearly all of whom have not endured chronic, excruciating pain and imminent death -- share your opinion on suicide. That opinion, in my view, is both presumptuous and shortsighted.
Yes, it takes courage to fight to the very end. However, it takes even more courage to choose when the end begins.
Hi! Thanks for your comment. I didn't really know what to make of the ending of 'A Quiet Place: Day One'. I was very critical about it in the original upload of this video. I think your points there are really interesting. I'm still grappling with it. And I agree, I'm not too happy myself with how I interacted with the issue. It's more nuanced and complex than I first thought. So for now I have edited out that segment. And I will do a deep dive into all the films if 'A Quiet Place Part III' comes out :)
@@ThorogoodFilms Anyone opposed to suicide is not compelled to endorse Sam’s ultimate decision. I simply think it’s presumptuous to conclude that a character in her situation made the wrong (or the illogical) choice. Your reviews always make me think. Glad to hear that your mind is open to thinking (i.e., rethinking) too.
Like many other people in the comments, I was with you until your critic of the ending. I loved that she went out on her own terms. She was able to reconnect with warm childhood memories, make a friend, rehome Fordo, and reached her “final destination” in a way (Jazz bar/pizza.) She’s also been mourning her life for over two years, according to her poem. I think this was a better death for her, rather than withering away in pain for however many days or weeks completely alone with the inability to take care of herself.
Regardless of our complete opposite opinions with the ending, I absolutely loved your video essay. This film was incredible, so full of heart, humanity, and the true kindness of strangers. Your video was so touching and conveyed all the feels as well. I also never noticed the beach text from the calendar, totally blew my mind!
Sidenote: I understand most people go into apocalypse horror films expecting mindless action and military ppl blowing up the “enemy”, but there’s an endless supply of those types of films. No hate on them, sometimes you want that kinda thing but there should also be space for emotional/character driven horror films like A Quiet Place Day One. I am also the target audience for artsy, emotional, and inner drama kind of stuff…so having an apocalyptic backdrop was right up my alley. IMHO this latest film is the best one so far. ❤
Thank you so much for your comment! And I completely see where you and others are coming from with the ending.
My husband and I loved the ending. We were sad ofc, but to see her choosing how she died was exactly what we were hoping for. I’ve volunteered in hospice before, and there were young patients like Sam who had horrible illnesses and needed 24/7 care. It was awful to see them struggle. I’m so glad we see Sam complete at her end, rather than a sudden death.
No u are wrong. Shes in pain. Her body was on fire. A death by the angel is swift. Its not that she feeling normal. Another allegory is when u suffer, its a quiet place. The planet does not know the pain.
She was already dieing but she wanted to go on a happy note/memory. No way was she going to live long with the cancer she had. Ao with the last bit of her life she saves her friend and her cat. Its not like there would be doctors and meds after the aliens kill everyone. 😂
In the first movie John did the same thing, although he was sacrificing himself he still ended his life🤔
Yes, you're absolutely correct!
Very different context though, right? He gives his life in that moment to save his kids. Sam takes her life when she's on her own because she feels that she is ready to go.
@@ThorogoodFilms
I don't know that she was reeeaally READY to go. She was going anyway, with potentially days to hours left. ;)
She enjoyed the last memories of she and her dad in the pizzeria while looking at the photo of them IN the restaurant together.
Embraced the emotions and seemingly felt more at ease with her decisions.
She'd already exceeded the doctors life estimates, but it was very clear that her time was up and particularly under the severity of the circumstances. A full fledged Apocalypse. ;) Not the greatest living conditions for even the healthiest of citizens. Lol
Sam was on her last leg.
She was barely getting by due to the kindness of Eric getting her the pain medication, which enabled her to help HIM to live. ;)
She came to terms with her end. Made more peace with it.
I'd venture to bet that if she wasn't terminally ill, she would've chosen Life.
if that movie said queit place day one what is connect for tha quiet place 1 ???? and he did the samw thing that he gave hes life to save her family .... my question is how they connect that day one in quiet place 1
Well she was in hospice. That means she’s at the end normally. They are just trying to make are comfortable.
A video WELL FUCKING DONE.
…thank you!
I completely dissagree with you about the ending, but I can appreciate your perspective either way!
She went out the way she WANTED. Period.
There Is such a thing as a “good” death.
…and we can only hope to be lucky enough to find one.
Ah thank you! I appreciate it :)
The scene in one of the previous films where the mother was giving birth in the bathtub, one of the most intense scenes I have ever seen. Wow, wow and wow…the best part ever. I really didn’t care for this new movie,BUT!!! Lupi did a great job. Her body language and facial expressions, sold this movie. The way she moved her body, you could tell she was sickly. She didn’t need to tell you that. She spoke to you without speaking. Well done.
Brotha she gave her life for the next life to prosper(Eric and Frodo). Self sacrifice is a big premise in these films also.
The only thing worst than dying is waiting to die. She went out on her own time!
Great video! Happy to find this! I loved this movie, and I didn’t have an issue with the ending. I understand your point, but I think that this movie is truly a beautiful and faithful depiction of humanity. I don’t think the ending undermines the message of the other two films (which are also awesome). It is a different story about different humans. It just happens in the same world. I believe the film contains some extremely moving scenes that make it a celebration of life and humanity.
Ah thank you! Great to hear your thoughts :)
Even though I agree with most of the comments regarding the ending, I really liked listening to the video and understanding how others have interpreted the movie
I APPRECIATE this video so much, and what you said about being in a society that allows euthanasia. As a person who has a mental disorder being disabled is difficult. And i get so sick sometimes its so painful even though i dont have a terminal illness. Mental illness can be as painful as other conditions. I wish we had a cure for mental illness but we dont. So with the option of pain and suffering or death, i understand why people choose death. At this moment thats just the way it is. When a person is suffering so much it doesnt feel like your choosing to give up, but that you are choose to be at peace. Even as a dying person Sam's insticnt was to survive in most of the movie. Its in us to want to live. But its when we are suffering so severely in pain albeit physical or mental for some humans they choose peace. But thank you for bringing this to some many peoples attention. I wish we lived in a society that tried to help those in pain more to avoid the start of euthanasia. But i understand it.
Enjoy your overall interpretation & analogy of the franchise, although I dont fully agree on your interpretation of the ending from a suicide point of view....Never the less the movie has such a beautiful meaning of humanity & how to value life. & shows us that there is still hope even in times of despair.
Ah thank you! I see where you're coming from :)
This movie was always giving me Aliens-like vibes. With the creatures in the water, and the egg-like sack infested area. Especially some of the jump scares.
You know what I never understood, how the death angels survived the depths of space but cants survive a bit of water
They kill the same reason my cat toys with insects, pure instinct
Day One did *not* give us enough backstory.
Those who saw the movie, please answer the question, what were those alien mushroom things the monsters were eating and communicating about. It could be nothing but I feel like it’s a big part. Idk correct me if I’m wrong.
I think it’s there food
It's there food. They don't seem to eat people. So they must have brought food to grow and eat
Apparently, it was food that was stuck within chunks of their planet (Their planet exploded, creating meteors which rained down on earth, carrying the aliens with it.)
Then why was this movie called quiet place? If you're trying to tell the story of how weird aliens were sent/arrived and just started wiping out all indigenous life, why focus so hard on just the lady wanting to get pizza? She didn't even want to go initially. Then she is so careful to not get killed, but then decides to go on a suicide mission.
The stories messaging was all over the place and took any real human responses to a situation like that away from the main cast. On that note the acting was the only thing that kept me from walking out of the theatre. Props to the actors/actresses. It was well acted, but a quiet place was a thriller not just a horror. When you make a monster that hid in water to hunt it's prey in the original, drown in 5 secs when underwater in the prequel I don't find any suspensr in that.
There are so many plot holes in the movie that it's bonkers. Just not putting folley in to make it sound quieter in the theater, while ignore the fact that they are walking on rubble is dumb. They just gain perfect stealth somehow. Also how did the choppers already know about the "be quiet" thing? They explain nothing that first movie didn't already show. That's the other thing. They relied on telling us stuff instead of showing us stuff. Also, as a cat owner for 35 years I have never had a cat be that calm or quiet unless they were sleeping. It was not believable from the start.
love the last few videos-have a feeling the upcoming 'longlegs' will be a good watch for your brand of symbolic discussion
Thanks a lot, I'll check it out!
The ending wasnt as bad as you think. She actively has cancer. She is actively dying and has barely any days left without treatment. Cancer pain is the worst pain that one can experience. I know because i have seen patients and family members who have sufferend from end stage cancer. I ask the question of pain to gain an understanding of this disease process and end of life process. Its unanimous that the pain is horrible. Her cancer is not in her hands. She has no control of this process. The fact that she found her old home, her music box and headphones and is appreciative of what life offered her even in those last few moments, made her happy and most importantly accept the fact that she is dying. The aspect of her unplugging and allowing the music to blast is the equivalence of providing permission to be placed on hospice and provided with comfort care which normally includes pain relief. The death angel is a swift death. In reality, this is day one. We are meant to feel hopeless.
this movie was very uplifting
I just randomly stumbled upon this video and now I’ve watched a few videos and now I’m subbed and can’t wait to watch more! 😮
Ah thank you!
They don't extinguish life, but noise. The balloon popping kills... disrupting the human connection that was developing. I think "feedback" is the life or death. I appreciate the forced return to relationship, connection, and feedback.
Empty egg not a food source.
For me the perfect ending would be if she actually went to play piano the song his father used to play and she would have died that way not standing in the middle of the street like that …
These aliens make other communication sounds, like screeching - not just the "clicking" noise. There are several scenarios where an alien screeches to alert the other aliens of a threat, chase after a threat, and for food.
The one scene in part 2 where the three separate encounters are going on at once, and all the scenes have water fire and oxygen woven in them.
Just thought it was really cool.
Also, the monsters kill to use them to use as a kind of fertilizer to grow the alien food. The studio removed most of tyhay scene in which Eric chased the cat toy where the monsters were eating.
thomas, this was dope ! thank you for making this video.
Ah thank you so much!
Wait a minute if they cant breath under water for more than 5 seconds(im being generous) how tf did ride a meteor through space for days potentially months with no breathable atmosphere
This was a perfect analysis! From beginning to end. You are so right about the end. I'm glad eric survived, but the suicide wasn't redeeming at all. She could've just died reading books in the comfort of her house. Thank you for posting this☀
Ah thank you very much for your comment!
Wow. If you created this whole piece and did not copy anyone. You are a genius!
Your delivery was nothing special but you made me finish the video til the end 😍
Ah thank you that's very kind! And I see where you're coming from with the ending.
Enjoyed your discusion
Ah thank you!
So she died fight would it count as a battle meet obin
Mate just want to say good job 👏 👏! This is the first video I’ve seen of yours and it was brilliant. I really enjoyed your insights and the fact you delved deeper into the surface themes of these films. I’ll definitely be watching more of your content ! It’s a crime you don’t have more subs but they are coming mate just be patient and keep putting out content . Your audience will find you soon enough
Ah thanks so much, I appreciate it!
Fantastic & informative breakdown and great voice!!
I respect that Sammy chose to die in the city like her dad. She's a true city queen. And she's mean too
How do the death angels know when to stop when Eric jumps into the water
bit fragile are we?
Your channel is amazing. Greetings from Brazil
Ah thank you so much!
The only reason I was more sad during the movie is because Reuben died. That was a very unfair death and so early in the movie. Justice for reuben
3:20 hey I wasn’t sure if you already picked up on this but when Eric is almost detected by one of the aliens while trying to save the cat, you can notice that the death angel is actually way bigger than the others. Perhaps it could be signaling to a hive queen
I read somewhere that sound is painful to them, so they kill anything that makes sound, to stop the pain.
They just want to SHUT EVERYONE & EVERYTHING UP (that’s why they don’t usually devour the prey)

Thank you for explaining the diet of the death angels. The screen at my theater was a bit too dark and I couldn't discern what they were eating. Regardless I found that scene intriguing because it gave us a glimpse of behavior other than them attacking people.
Ah yes! People have also been pointing out that in that scene there is a giant Death Angel. Perhaps a kind of 'queen bee'?
@@ThorogoodFilms I'd love a movie but through the death angels’ perspective.
Great review & i like the subtle clues 👍
what you think will it be the next movie about? maybe set in a future where the humans escaped the world through rockets? and more explore about the monsters world origin
I think they do eat their prey - there is never any bodies.
Perhaps its too save on costs for extras, or perhaps they drag bodies to act as fertiliser for their mushroom farm?
Maybe sounds just hurt them and they are only without pain through silence
Day One was full of empty calories. Nothing really happened to forward the franchise or to teach us things we didn't know before. The movie just kind of happens.
They do eat humans they use them to fertilize their plants they eat
Terrific analysis Tom 😁. Some disaster movies , in specific cases,deal with fears or anxiety of our time bringing normal people to challenge these obstacles."Natural disasters bring the worst of people" said Martin Landau character from Earthquake (1974) , in this case also the best. I really enjoyed the movie, the first two films were well crafted and thrilling to watch. The ending scene surprised me but in a more positive view despite Its contradiction of the meaning of life showed in the previous movies , I think there was some kind of nihilist concept viewed by the characters of this universe due to the beginning of the apocalypse , maybe that same concept in Sarnosky's head will be completely wiped out by the events of the original two movies and It was created for that pourpose..or more plausible option he ran out ideas for the finale😂😂😂😂. Btw I can't wait for the next movie and also at the end of this year a tie-in game for PS5 will be released .. developed by an italian studio !
Ah thanks so much! Those are some fascinating reflections. Will have to give Earthquake a watch!
What happened to the two kids in the movie that were hiding under the fountain?
Even though it’s the third installment of the franchise it’s still the beginning phase of its arc. Its moral gravity still should rest with the second installment at this point right?
That's true, and I hope that's how they see it too :)
I thinks its way off the mark to call her death a suicide. She was terminal at the start of the movie. Besides the ither hospice patients who were elderly and who blew up in the buss are never mentioned by you making you very hypocritical so elderly are of no value? While a dying younger women must fight for her . Righr?
She was in the deepest of diapair at the start...yet her can and male companion gave her hope and renewed her spirit. She was smiling when she made noise. As another poster mentioned her pain patch was limited and with out it every muscle in her body was on fire and she couldnt move. To me she found the delight of NYC again what had deligjted her as a cancer free young woman/girl. She made a choice of ×hen and how to leave. To me it was empowering
I just referred to it as a suicide because that's what the writer-director called it. And I understand if you disagree with my take! I just found the ending uncomfortable.
Hey could you review A Cure for Wellness?
Thanks for the suggestion, I'll check it out!
@@ThorogoodFilms Thanks for the response! I think your channel will take off soon, so I wanted to get in my suggestion before you were overloaded with suggestions.
It's definitely an overlooked thriller with lots of symbolism. It was the last film Gore Verbinski directed. He's still alive, but kinda disappeared after that.
I like your videos! My suggestion is make some SHORTS coz this pushes more views then the viewers will go to your main videos! This will increase your views quicker
The most unrealistic part of this movie was the cat!!!! I swear to God, that cat slaps TF out of the alien as it passes by, when they were at the feeding ground. The cat would slap a glass over on purpose. The cat would meow because it learned that people get killed, if it does that.
The cat would have gotten folks killed on purpose!!!😂😂😂😂
By far the best review for me
Ah too kind, thank you!
People try to find meaning in everything hence garbage is being delivered as gems.
ok my qestion is ..... where is that cat in part 1 and 2 until eric has a kid😂😂😂😂
Excellent actors and movies 🎥👌❤congrats 👏
It all makes sense if you think of the series as a racial allegory like King Kong and Planet of the Apes were and are.
“Thrumming?”
In other words the death angels teeth are just for intimidation i think
My take on the film, I'd have rather been given 1/3 of each film spliced into one much better film. I watched all 3 compliments of the internet. All three were ok, none were great on their own though. I thought the first was the best.
kind of based, I feel like the recent one is probably the most compelling but they're all more ideas than movies? imo
ok so lupita decided to ended her life to put down the cassete and make sound and that guy who survive continuing the story for the part 1 and 1 and also the black guy my question is where is the cat on the part 1 and 2 😂😂😂😂
At least she got some pizza
What about the Rangers because well we don't but my Siri is that there that they say they have so sensitive human so they wanna extinguish all the sound to live in a world of peace so they're not just kelvis want to live in the killing of a world of peace so piece that's kind of like Wrobg he's
I think what you meant to say is… “Exposing their naughty bits”.
You’re cute. You need to cheer up a bit tho…. :)
You just got a subscribe.
Ahahaha! I'm working on trying to be a bit more cheerful in these videos :)
Humans are their circumstances.
Frodo is the main character 😎
No,he's a side character, he didn't have a major role, he's just the womans (forgot her name) emotional support animal.
