JAWS = Just A White Shark. Anyone have a theory on the praying mantis that OJ “hadn’t seen in awhile” covering up the camera and fluttering away as soon as the UAP left the area? It definitely played into the initial “it’s grays”/the viewers idea before anyone knows what’s going on but we never really see it communing with nature again only consuming it.

No chance the film in the hand held camera would still be viable after it fell from Jean Jacket? I realize probably not because film is vulnerable to so many things. But also horror movie logic dictates it would be just fine.

Yeah half the population probably wouldn’t even believe it was the same creature.

CelticPredator posted:I’d punch a grey alien in the face and I’m white as hell. when I was like 10 and trick or treating there was a house with a bunch of jump scares in the yard and I wacked not one, but two of them with my full candy bag after they scared me as a fight or flight response. I don’t know what this means but it seems a Appropriate for the conversation at hand.

buglord posted:How does this movie (and Get Out) compare to Us? I havent seen Us yet but upon reflection I think Get Out was the more enjoyable experience for me. I really love Us but the more you think about it the less it makes sense. You kinda have to take it at face value and enjoy the ride. I’d have to watch both Nope and Us again to tell you which I think is better. Right now I’d have it as a tie.

I’m a very “give me 90 minute runtimes or give me death” kind of guy but knowing what we know about the scenes that were cut, I’d watch a 4 hour version of Nope

Gumball Gumption posted:When I thought it was a happy ending where they kill the monster and survive made me think OJ lives. But as I realized it's a fake out and Emerald didn't grow or change, she killed this thing for the shot. With that in mind I could see OJ being dead. He tamed it, he had it, and she screwed up. This kind of flys in the face of why they named it Jean Jacket in the first place. She tamed her horse, imo.

It’s also implied that their family should be in a better place financially due to being the descendants of the first person ever put to film and their dad being the best drat Hollywood Horse Trainer there is. So you can also look at it as finally getting what they’ve deserved for generations.

I didn’t know Keith David was in the film at all so his appearance was a very pleasant surprise despite being brief.

Scissorfighter posted:The one time I saw him address that, he was being sarcastic like "haha yes I definitely intended that, I'm very smart." That’s not how I took it but I suppose that reading is there. My apologies if I’m in the wrong on this one. I remember someone posting it was confirmed many many pages ago and that’s the only thing I could find.

Punkin Spunkin posted:I really couldn't get over how incredibly tasteless it was for Jordan Peele (we're talking beyond Takashi Miike or Gaspar Noe level tbh) to have his Signs riff have a subplot based on the Travis chimpanzee attack with a character appear on screen directly based on the woman who got her faced ripped off. How was nobody there to tell him maybe that wasn't the best idea. Did you actually watch the movie or is this some avant garde Logan Paul review performance posting

My biggest problem with this line of discourse is how heavy handed the word exploit is being used. Is any reference in film to a tragic real life event exploitation?

ruddiger posted:Yes I sincerely disagree, or we have different definitions of the word exploit. If the movie had centered on Mary Jo and the chimp attack then I would agree it was exploitation.
