I absolutely loved the credits rolling in orange. I don’t know if it was because I was blazed but that s*** felt so calming after journeying through all the tension in this film 😄 which I feel like lowkey was the point

This New York Times piece breaks it all down perfectly I think

The power of cinema and black historical documentation pieces are definitely on point
The way you talking bout the visuals IMAX (well liemax) worthy?
Edit: f*** it only $6.50 with my regal unlimited why not

i loved how he named the characters emerald and OJ and then actually used green and orange heavily in the movie

Went to take a piss and missed the Oppenheimer trailer
About to see now.
Good? Bad? Where do y’all place it in his catalogue on first watch.
get out
nope

his most beautiful film, and a more interesting world and story than us had (to me) but i did leave the theater wanting more. maybe like one more scene to wrap up the story and some more exposition because a few things felt under-addressed
The movie was great but I couldn’t hear half of it clearly because people don’t know how to act in public anymore. The guy to my left was facetiming during the movie, checking his phone constantly and didn’t even have it on silent so u heard every text and his iphone making typing noises and the three ladies next to my group just talked at full volume over every scene in the movie where they were talking. This is my first time going to the theatre post pandemic and it will be the last. Wish I hadn’t spoiled a great movie with that environment.
The chimp wore clothes and a hat because that’s what we wanted him to look like. It took off its disguise at the end and showed us its true self. The alien took the appearance of a UFO because that’s what we wanted it to look like. It took off its disguise at the end and showed us its true self.
Crazy. did y’all think the ufo resembled a Angel in a way or some type of thing wit wings

wym thats what they wanted it to look like, it chose that appearance not them
I was wondering that too at first but here’s my theory: at the beginning, the monkey murks everyone except for young Steven Yeun. They have a mutual sense of understanding, but the monkey gets shot. Similarly, when OJ looks up at the monster, I felt that they had a sense of mutual understanding/respect and the monster just left him alone (you never see him being lifted up). Just like the monkey, not long after this moment, the monster gets killed.
Yup great point and I’m glad they didn’t show it either and made us wonder My nigga OJ showed up on the horse in the end looking like Django
Wait am I the only person that picked up on the Kill Bill vibes? I haven’t seen anyone tweet that either
the monkey fist to his hand is same as pyro and his twin in Us. I think there is much proof all these movies connect especially with regards to tvs and theory of they nearly know they are living a fiction
Monkey fist made me think of E.T

Not what they wanted it to look like, what WE wanted it to look like. It was a pretty basic UFO design but turned out to be much more

But yeah they definitely all connect because Jordan Peele main message is showing the real monster is humans. I mean we kept watching all these humans keep provoking the UFO as if it’s a toy that you can make do tricks. Same thing with Gordy the monkey. Same thing with owning the horses. When you think about it the idea of owning horses to use for races and to do tricks is actually a really f\*\*\*ed up concept that lowkey connects to slavery in its own way. We own these animals to make em do what we want and make money off them rather than just letting em run free in the wilderness

Made me think of mothra or like a big version of that alien from life
Some
Of the shots in this were simply iconic man lmao
All the shots of the sky were just f***ing perfect lol
The sun glasses at night scene
Nah y’all are sleeping on the shot of Daniel in his truck when it was dark af and all you could really see was his eyes. That silhouette was crazy because it showcased the horror || he was witnessing all from his eyes || which eyes plays a very important role in the movie
The music choice was unique as well, in scenes where it was highly suspenseful and OJ might die running from the UFO I recall they played some like light Indiana jones type music rather than suspenseful scores. It showcased to me OJ was calm headed and in control the whole time
Went to take a piss and missed the Oppenheimer trailer
Idk how you guys theater showed it but my theater made it seem like the movie was starting, the lights went out, they did the whole “phones off the movie is starting” ad, but then all sudden showed the trailer after
get out
nope

I absolutely love the mix of amazement and horror in the soundtrack
Really reminded me of classic Spielberg soundtracks, which of course was composed by John Williams

I’m sorry bro that sucks, honestly that is a perfect moment to respectfully ask ppl to STFU. You paid just as much money to be there so ppl shouldn’t be talking or f***in FT’ing wtf. I deff woulda told them to chill tf out
I do sometimes talk during a movie if I’m wit the homies but it’s a whisper in they ear if some like crazy twist happens that I notice just cus all of us like to a***yze movies and all that
