Nice
Dyou think you could cover the virus from twd?
Do you listen to Gizmo the rapper
The reason the used a green screen is because Frys Electronics went bankrupt during Covid. However, alot of their stores are still standing and look pretty normal on the outside. Especially the ones with unique designs such as the one in this movie. The inside of these vacant buildings however are pretty much completely empty aside from a few empty shelves and desk sitting around. Never the less, great video and love the channel.
You should do a video on Peter Benchley's Creature, and explain how the recapitulation theory relates to it.
the dad doesn't say random words, he says the names of the horses to try to remain mentally there, it's something for his mind to do so he doesn't fall unconscious
I think its moreso because of the brain damage he had taken. His left side of his brain was lacerated deeply. Therefore the logical side of his brain remained and continued to do what he knew best: taking care of the horses.
It’s pretty clear after a couple watches. OJ is having his dad name horses they’ve owned and trained to get a feel for his cognitive brain function and keep him there mentally as you said, keeping him awake and aware until they get to the hospital
@Armando Tarziu stop
@Armando Tarziu who asked?
And it was a nickel that went through his skull, not a quarter, like the narrator said. Just saying.
TBH, it's refreshing to see a predator in a movie that acts like a predator. No unnecessary screaming, eats when it needs to eat etc
This is what I loved most. An unfamiliar and powerful foe doesn't need to be malicious and constantly intimidate. Sometimes, facing a more powerful adversary is just the nature of the animal kingdom, and NOPE did a great job of depicting Jean Jacket as an animal, not a monster.
That was easily my favorite part of the movie, especially because it's very consistent with the themes of the movie, given that a big part of its themes surround the relationship between animals and the spectacle industry, Jean Jacket essentially occupies the same narrative space as Gordy; a wild animal we shouldn't be messing with or trying to control, that we've decided to exploit for spectacle, causing a great deal of calamity in the process.
Y'all would like Calvin from Life. I think Roanoke already made a video of it
@@TheDRexor That was good too, at least Calvin was.
Yes! That’s one thing that bothers me about most animal-based monster movies; when they have the animal eat non-stop. They just don’t have endless stomachs. Even aggression is circumstantial in animals.
The shoe was important because it’s another example of a “bad miracle”.
That shoe saved Ricky’s life, because he was so confused and focused on the bizarre shoe that he wasn’t looking Gordie in the eyes for long enough that Gordie came to his senses and calmed down.
The problem is that Ricky took the wrong lesson from that situation and believed that he was special and Gordie just refused to hurt him and that led him to believe that Jean Jacket would do the same. That shoe was a blessing and a curse for Ricky because it saved his life but also got him killed.
He never moved on from that day and kept trying to take control over it by buying the items, using it for profit and anything he could do to try to make something good come from a bad experience. But he clearly had PTSD because whenever it came up he deflected from his own experience, bringing up the SNL sketch or whatever so he didn’t have to actually talk about it himself.
He was a guy who had a horrible experience, took the wrong lesson from it and then payed for trying to profit off of another creature like Gordie…
Thank you! This is a real fun fact.
I like your explanation a lot more compared to everyone else’s, don’t get me wrong they are good but yours just makes sense especially with the implications of Ricky wanting control/ the PTSD l, explains why he even displays the shoe in the up right position as if now it’s his choice as to why it’s displayed that way but ultimately it because he can’t let go of the trauma.
Wow that’s a really good analysis
I also found the shoe to be a bit of a red herring. A purposeful misdirection. We the audience are given the impression that there is some connection between the shoe and Gordie's rampage. An "alien" influence. The reality was that Gordie was simply a wild animal acting within his nature, much like Jean Jacket. It's very likely Jean Jacket is a creature from Earth, not alien whatsoever.
Ooor what if that “flying predator” is not the only alien yeaa. But it shown all of these “anomalies” caused by em UFO’s
I also like the theory that JJ's species might have been confused for christian angels. His territorial form definitely gives big "Be not afraid human" vibes plus humans that misinterpreted them as something biblical would have been more likely to avert their eyes and/or bow, making them more likely to survive and their version of events to be the one more often told.
That is a very plausible theory and is now my headcannon
Maybe rapture is feeding
Especially since you consider the whole story of Lot’s wife. She looked back at the destruction of a city, and the only thing left was rock (a pillar of salt).
If you look at JJ when he does his thing, you’re eaten, and then all the inedible bits are coughed up like a giant stratosphere owl pellet.
Umm. Hello? You know it’s still just a movie not to be taken seriously right?
@@AdhvaithSane That sounds boring
Fun fact: stealing a man's horse used to be a hanging offense, as if you were to steal it in the middle of nowhere, it would mean it's original owner is stranded and likely to die in the wilderness.
Thus it was equated to murder.
Can this be applied today if a car is stolen in the middle of the desert and original owner doesn’t make it home?
This fact is not really fun
@@Jrk585 Yes, but no. It would be charged separately as murder.
@@joshuagross3151 lol imagine trying to find a way to put this thing on trial and hang it
@@Jrk585 it might count under the felony murder rule. Any death that results during your commission of a felony gets you the equivalent time to a murder charge.
I think the implications that Jean Jacket hunted other creatures in the stratosphere for food before coming down to Earth is horrifying; more monsters above us that we just can't see.
This concept has been explored a couple times. Sir Arthur Conan Doyle wrote "The Horror of the Heights" in 1912. Not his best story, but enjoyable. Charles Fort and ufologists which believed in "atmospheric beasts" considered things like aeroplankton, how to deal with lightning strikes and such.
I personally think JJ's senses (like passive/active electric senses of fishes), locomotion (electrostatic levitation/ion-propelled aircraft) and perhaps even main energy source (like oxygen is for us, it eats for nutrients it can't synthetize on its own) are all electromagnetic, and the interference is a side-effect of that.
@@brunokopte1347 I read that about 15 years ago and could never remember the name or author. Thank you.
never thought of that but now it reminds me of his previous movie, which names escape me at the moment.
We could kill it pretty easily
Leads me to think that's what caused midair explosions of rockets heading to Orbit, or missing Jets... Colossal versions of JJ gobbling them up, or just floating in the clouds and wham!
Can we appreciate OJ punching the kid in the alien costume without hesitation even after he says “Nope” ? 😂 Badass good guy
That entire scene was great, you knew there were gonna be something like aliens, but not how or when they were gonna appear.
Fun fact, the screams from the people eaten by the creature were made by combining the screams of people imagining being in a roller-coaster and people imagining being eaten by a monster.
Screams of Delight mixed with Screams of Horror
I love the explanation that the reason JJ has never been seen before is that avoids humans like other wild predators (bears, wolves, sharks) but when Glenn started feeding it, JJ suddenly became bolder and decided we were good enough to eat as well.
Don't feed wild animals, kids.
In the words of one Homer Simpson, if the sign says don't feed the bears, you better damn well not feed the bears.
@@johndodo2062 cats and dogs are domestic animals that should be living with people, not wild predators :P
@@krlosz1996 pigeons too
except he wasn't avoiding humans in this at all.
@@KanadianKaiser correct
The idea of stratosphere having its own unique ecosystem with flora and fauna sounds so damn exciting
Search up what we theorize life looks like on Jupiter it’s really cool.
@@jonharrison3114 god do those fake animals look cool
Also absolutely terrifying.
@@kalidos7681 Sentient balloons!!!
@@jonharrison3114 we theorize that there is no life on Jupiter.
From avoiding eye contact, JJ making itself look bigger and OJ making eye contact as he backs away it really made JJ feel like a real animal.
The avoiding eye contact was foreshadowed at the start of the film, OJ giving out safety advice about being around lucky. Its so well thought out and written ridiculously in detail. It’s definitely a film you have to watch more than once for the hidden details.
Something I've noticed about what Jordan Peele does well as a director is how his characters act intelligently, no horror movie tropes of acting like an idiot to progress the plot. His characters (almost) always react and respond to situations like a real person would (looking at you Antlers you stupid bastard) and with how horror movie characters have been for like the past decade plus that is super refreshing.
My Dad brought up an interesting thing that’s probably just a head cannon, but still interesting. It was that antlers wanted to get the “impossible” shot, basically recording even when he was being eaten, even if the shot killed him
Yup, I love the fact his character's "idiot moments" are just that, moments. And all understandable like the sister accidentally looking at the alien a few times
To give "credit" to Antlers: he was dying and he knew he didn't have much time (the coughing and pills he took, 100% death is coming movie moment), so he wanted to go out doing what he loved and trying to accomplish his life goal of getting the impossible shot.
Throughout the movie we get hints that he was kinda big back in the say but is washed up now. This (plus also being near the end) is why he did what he did.
Incredibly selfish and stupid, but it wasn't completely without reason.
the scene where JJ is right above his truck and he just decided to NOPE, im not gonna even try admit its glooming presence, hopefully it will just go away. Because what else can you do it that situation
It's an old hack standup comedy bit. "Wypipo in horror movies be like 'oh dear a noise in the basement, better check it out with this dying flashlight and no weapon.' Black folks ain't doing that shit!"
Oddly enough, I haven't seen anyone talk about how that entire area was blurred on Google Maps in the movie.
_Someone knew it was there._
The government da
Its not impossible that JJ was simple scrambling the satellite used for google maps
@@youraduck THAT implies that JJ's power reaches all the way into space 🌌. I don't think it's that far, considering the Sky Dancers . But... Google and others are required to blur or edit sensitive locations governments demand ALL over the world. 🤔 I think the government might have a reason to obscure the area. This might not be the first time
I took it as Jean Jacket interfering with the satellites in the way it effected other electronics.
@@powerglover2021 even if he interferes the satellite, google maps usually use a picture taken from the satellite rather having it actively scanning, so it is more likely that the government know about JJ
The shoe represents a bad miracle, like something seemingly important happening when it really isn’t. The shoe staying up caught jupes attention and kept his eyes off Gordy, something random saved his life when it really isn’t all that important.
Adding to that, People also think it’s a way to represent ‘waiting for the other shoe to fall’. Jupe managed to survive Gordy, but he never got closure and was still waiting for himself to be next, which he found with Jean Jacket.
I always believed that what you said caused him to think that he can tame even the wildest of animals, leading him to try to 'wrangle' jean jacket
I took it as how sometimes in a traumatic experience, you focus on something completely innocuous to cling to sanity.
He then thought he could control animals causing is arrogance and ultimately his downfall
@@missdivine3557 I heard the bad miracle thing too. After thinking about it yesterday. The chimp killed everyone and the kid was waiting to be next. Waiting for the “second shoe to drop”. Makes much more sense
For anyone who didn’t understand the scene with the mirror ball on the plunger, OJ was doing what he does best and just focusing on work and his horses and he was planning to train the horses to not be afraid of the CGI mirror ball since that’s what spooked Lucky and lost them the job in the beginning.
The same as the scene where the trains Lucky with the flags and wavy arm men so it doesn’t spook.
It didn’t really have anything to do with the alien but it shows that OJ does actually know his stuff and he knows how to correct his mistakes and learn.
Fun fact: the dad wasn't saying random words. He was saying the names of the horses
Not so fun fact: I think OJ and lucky died in the end and the last shot was his sister wishing he was there.
@tanepukenga1421 I wouldn’t really call that a “fact” because this is more so of a theory instead of a fact, I think it would be a fact if the creators like approved it as being what really happened.
Oh ffs, learn what alliteration is grammar nazi @@certifiedrat7563
@@tanepukenga1421how?
@@tanepukenga1421no there’s far more evidence that he lives than for him dying.
The terrifying thing is, in this movie's "universe", that might not be the only creature out there, since there are stories of "UFO" abducting animals everywhere.

I like how the portray it as a real animal, not as a static animal. Like when they used the mini parachute to scare it off, because it remembered that's what blocked its windpipe.
Like cats being playful with lasers. Because it’s a small little thing, that could potentially be food. I saw a video here on RUclips of Big cats Vs lasers. The bigger stuff like lions didn’t care about it because it was too small for them and it wouldn’t be of value. Only the smaller little cats cared. Also cats are scared of cucumbers for some reason lmao.
Cats are scared of cucumbers because to them they look like snakes. That’s why it causes it knee jerk reaction in most cases apparently.
@@morrigan7017 I will aleays despise humans for finding it funny to make fun of people or other animals going into fight or flight. "Haha look that cat thought it was gonna die". I don't see how it isn't animal abuse
@@VitaeLibra do you get this mad, when someone scares another human. It triggers a similar response depending on what the object or situation your scare the human in
@@killermmouse8874 Yes. That's why I included people in my message. I assume you missed it. Although to be clear I don't get outright mad. I just silently dislike it a lot
I've heard the shoe explained as how during traumatic events we seam to focus on the weirdest things. Like a friend of mine was in a car accident and the car flipped and left a good crater in the dirt that was stopped literally millimeters from a gopher hole. My friend said he literally just started laughing because he was in shock and the absurdity of the gopher hole is all he could focus on. Not the broken car, not his own injuries, not even everyone else's status. He just sat their laughing at a gopher hole like a mad man.
this story fits so well with the movie that I wouldn't even notice if it happened there
The shoe is purely symbolic. It represents two things: a point of disassociation for Jupe, which allowed him to remove himself from the moment. It also represents a "bad miracle", which is a overarching theme in the movie.
I don’t know how Jordan peele managed it but to re-write the alien kinda of genre is so impressive. I think alien movies are so overdone but he somehow managed to make JJ terrifying and finding out it was an animal was an absolute plot twist because u just don’t think of that when seeing a ufo
The whole "UFOs are animals from outer space concept" might sounds outlandish today,
but it was a very common assumption, until the abduction craze in the 60's arrived.
So, Jordan Peele basically subverted our expectation of the "Grey's abducting people in flying saucers" with this "outlandish" concept.
The creature design is a big part of what made it stand out as well. It looks like a gigantic cowboy hat and seems to be a flying piece of sentient fabric, its anatomical structure is unlike I’d ever seen before in alien movies. I love how the way it died looked like a balloon filled with flour bursting I actually laughed at that
You are giving jordan to much credit the dude is a hack
I read it’s inspired by the angels in Neon Genesis Evangelion.
@@cathygrandstaff1957 I can definitely see a design resemblance now that you mention it.
It’s amazing how many people didn’t get what the wacky waving people were there for. It wasn’t to attract JJ, it was to indicate where it was, as his EMP field would cause them to deflate.
Well I'd say it was also to deter it. It was colourful and wavy like the flags, so they could use it to keep Jean Jacket from attacking willy-nilly
I just watched the movie and angel gets into a arguement with ojs sister just before about how he was wiring all the floating people to old car batteries to me it sounded like they were all on one electrical track rather than individually set up so i think it did a double duty
It can be multi-purpose.
@@az_street_walker4181 angel said he stole a bunch of car batteries though
Considering this thing might produce its own body heat, couldn't it be possible that JJ's buoyancy is in part aided by its body essentially acting like a hot air balloon?
Possibly, but the how does it maneuver around? Hot air jets?
@@cotton_mouth70 By moving its body like a giant billows, I suppose.
My theory is that it produces some kind of electro magnetic field that gives it anti gravity properties that it can control at will, and that's why all electric items fail when it is near
@@cotton_mouth70 Kinda like eels move through water, but instead of moving the whole body, you just make waves in the skin to create negative pressure pockets that the creature moves backwards
@@horsebox5138Both that and the biology explained in the video make sense.
As for why Antler decided to become an hero, I always interpreted it as him realizing that nothing he did would ever surpass that moment. He was a proud artist, and he captured footage of the impossible, so he knew that the only way he could ever top that was with an even more impossible shot; he knew he would die, but he laid it all on the line for his art.
He was terminal, possibly cancer. The way he coughed periodically and dressed purely for comfort gives the impression that he's not doing so well.
Whoever designed Jean Jacket deserves an award for the creativity
They were inspired by the angels from Evangelion
I guess a sheet can be scary
Are you talking about a jacket that has materials of jeans?
The person that designed it was a woman and I can't think of her name off the top of my head but the Latin name she gave Jean jacket was the Occulonimbus or something along those lines.
My friend described Jean Jacket as an Eldritch Kite
If there is one imposibility in this movie, is not the creature, but the idea that the california desert has THAT many clouds at once in the sky multiple days a week.
True that! I am so sick of Cali! No Clouds! No rain! Just pure Heat n Hell!
I grew up in the High Desert, and clouds like that are actually very common late fall through early spring, and whenever a thunderhead rolls in in the summer. Especially if you're within view of the mountains, a cloud or two hanging by the mountains on an otherwise clear day is not weird at all. Plenty of clouds, just not much rain.
The “Agua Dulce” location seemed to be a valley desert, which sometimes they can ah e their own micro climates enough to support cloud formation.
Remember a storm was coming
Lol you see more jean jackets then clouds here
Jordan Peele essentially took the message of Jurassic World and well... Did it right. Characters have motivations that make sense and are not idiots and most importantly, the "movie monster" acts like an animal, not an evil villain. Satisfying to see.
I don’t know intentionally hovering over a house and raining blood on it to terrify it’s prey pretty much screams evil villain.
@@Taz-ey4jl i mean tbf, we have no idea if that was supposed to be intentional or not. it may have just randomly decided to stop there to rest/digest. like i doubt it recognizes a house as something that prey hides in, it just saw something to hover over, so it did
@@Monochrome2004 Man you animal lovers are sad trying to come up with nonsense to defend animals being terrible.
@@Taz-ey4jl ? Lmao nice assumption i wanted JJ to be defeated and killed by the end. I just highly doubt it was capable of thinking like that cuz... you know, it's an animal. I dont even completely disagree, i saw one person theorize it was trying to scare them off it's territory in which case it was intentional but there was still a reason and it was rooted in natural behaviours. Im not defending it or saying what it did was good lmao
@@Monochrome2004 You are trying to downplay what it did by saying either it was to dumb to be evil or saying that was it’s territory and it was justified I don’t care how animals feel or if they know how humans work.
The wavy armed props in the field wasn't just to attract the alien. As the alien gets close, the battery dies, and the wavy arm prop goes limp. Showing the aliens' position while it's in the clouds. Also, they don't need to look up in the sky to see it. Even though they can't help but look up.
In regards to why Jean Jacket hasn’t been seen before, either Peele or one of the other creators note that it’s design is partially based on biblical depictions of angels (mass of wings, rings, and eyes) so it’s possible it’s been viewed in the past but given divine meaning.
Love this
By that same token, it might be why there's ufo sightings too, given it's contained form looks like a ufo.
@@KeithElliott-zd8cx Fun fact: Many of JJ's actions are based on *original* UFO phenomena before they got associated with aliens.
Blackouts, rains of blood, random objects falling to the ground, weird winds, etc. Those things were the most reported phenomena during UFO sightings until around the 60's. Then once popular culture imagined them to be aliens the reported phenomena changed.
And anyone staring long enough to get a good look at it get devoured.
So most people would probably avert their gazes, thinking that it’s biblical in nature (remember the story of Lot’s wife-).
It's not the scariest Alien design I've ever seen, but it is by far the coolest. Drawing inspiration from what may be biblical angels and rays and octopuses.
It reminded me of the magnapinna squids, those with really long legs and weird heads.
I imagine in the "Nope" universe, JJ's species is what inspired biblical angels lol
I would be interested in seeing the concept art aswell
Biblical angels, rays, and octopi.
@@robertdowneypeenis6139 Angelic Octopus rays
Something that could also contribute to Jean Jacket's "unusual" aggression and interaction with humans could be either a prior injury or a lack of food. Animals like tigers have been known to avoid people as best they can, but if for one reason or another they can't hunt their usual prey, they'll take what they can get. This could mean a few things for Jean Jacket; something in the stratosphere (or another Jean Jacket) is able to give its species a run for its money, or human interference has either somehow reduced the available food or also injured it. These would result in the same outcome, but I like to lean towards injury since we don't see Jean Jacket actually enter the stratosphere. A prior injury could actually keep it closer to the ground, and based on the amount of crap it eats we would DEFINITELY have noticed it sooner if they regularly hunted in the lower atmosphere.
Thinking on the possibilities of Jean Jacket's origins, whether it's from Earth or from another planet, a possibility arises where... It came from both. Looking at the creature in Nope, while it's abilities and physiology is indeed otherworldly in every way it at the same time feels Earthly, as if it has grown accustomed to the world it lives on or, more specifically, EVOLVED on. The alien in the movie may not be the same alien that first entered Earth's atmosphere long ago but may in fact be a descendant. An ancient ancestor far more adapted for interstellar travel than hunting in the skies of a single planet. Considering the seemingly desert-like emptiness in the galaxy in terms of other life, it's possible Earth may be a celestial oasis that when found by interstellar animals, would basically become their new-home paradise where they stayed and preyed on the local wildlife until they became perfectly adapted for it at the possible cost of losing their ability to travel through space. The first of Jean Jacket's kind may not have come from Earth but after possibly hundreds of millions of years of living on Earth, Jean Jacket could be a longstanding resident with a vast and mysterious heritage.
edited for grammar.
I didn't see anyone mention this but the "threat displsy" looks a lot like the hypnotic display a cuttlefish uses to mesmerize its prey. That also ties in with the other ocean life references.

The shoe represents the expression “waiting for the other shoe to drop”. Jupe is waiting under the table for Gordy to come back and attack him too, but he never does, so the “other shoe” never drops.

@@LicPlate8VPL158 naw bad miracle
A small detail i interpret about JJ's design: both in the front and back of his UFO form, there are these little holes or orifices which look like apertures of some kind, sort of like the crevices in a crab's shell - I took them as the entry and exit points from which the air flows through it. That way, the wind currents flow front to back more easily in a circular shape (that's why the UFO form is circular, like a saucer), filling the air sacks and that way the mouth beneath it regulates the amount of air expelled, which it also uses both to propulse itself and to ingest his food.
It's also how it creates the clouds used to camouflage itself; by condesing the water particles in the air within and then releasing them around itself.... essentially like a fart.
fart cloud!
"Holy Floating Flatulence, Batman; That's One Windy Wonder!"
"No, Robin; It's a Stink-Hole in the Sky!"
Well, what DOES this thing smell like?!
IF it's an animal, and, clearly, It Eats other organisms; and, I'm just assuming, here; it's gotta poop too! Something that big, (and , considering what it eats) in the sky, pooping?!.... C'mon, Folks, It's gotta smell like 🐎💩!
And, Is It just me, Or does anyone else care why this video is presented in mirror image?!
Maybe, it's a metaphor for the use of mirrors in the story! Or maybe it's just me 😸🤪💖🛸
Not sure if it was intentional on Peele's part, but the Key that was stuck in Ghost, made the horse look like a life sized wind up toy. If it was intentional, maybe that helps with the animal exploitation analogy. People both in this movie and any Hollywood movie that uses trained animals, simply expect the animals to do what they want them to do and when they force that, everything goes wrong.
It amuses me to no end how hard JJ swerved to avoid the comparatively tiny colorful string, I know it’s because it recognized it as the thing that hurt before but it looked like it nearly crashed itself in trying to avoid the colorful string.
like a cat with a cucumber
good point, but the film also gives us hints that big animals like horses can be scared of tiny things, if you put something shiny close to their eyes for example. The rider's helmet is supposed to remind us of the horse kicking it's legs while being scared of the mirror, proving that a huge animal can move a lot when scared and can do something which seems unnecessary and unexpected. So for the UFO animal it was colorful strings/flags, that could be attached to something uneatable - that made it "kick", or rotate to avoid swallowing something dangerous. On the other hand I don't know how dangerous crashing would be for JJ - if a balloon could kill it then maybe scrubbing the jellyfish skin against the dirt could be devastating as well.
My dog high centered a stool on his back when he was about 6 months old, scared the pee out of him! literally! He is now 2 and he still will not grab anything from under the stool, he whines until I grab it for him so I totally see that as a legit animal thing jj does :)
You say that jokingly, but I once swerved & crashed my bike as a kid (and nearly broke my arm) because _a wasp_ flew right into my path. It doesn't take much for autonomous, fight-or-flight movements to take hold, especially when something startles you.
@@StrunDoNhor Lol oof, ok that definitely puts JJ's actions into perspective
Fun fact-Jean Jackets scientific name is apparently *Occulonimbus edoequus,* which roughly translates to *Dark Cloud Horse Eater*
Pretty accurate
Yeah that sounds like the normal way of naming things haha
Very cool that they did it like that
Hidden dark cloud horse eater
One-eyed one-horned flying purple people eater😂
Why on earth did they choose the name Jean Jacket? So wussy. And although it looked spectacular through most of the movie, the end result was terrible. A big parachute with seams in it and a green plastic thing for a mouth. It was like all the other scenes took most of their money so someone had to zip over to Walmart to purchase a bunch of bed sheets and a roll of green cellophane. How did they get away with something so lame?
If you watch later in the movie during the "blood rain" scene the coins and keys being dropped are embedding themselves in the wood of the house like bullets, being dropped with what seems to be reversed magnetic force.
Like another comment said: The dad doesn't say random words, he's recalling the names of his horses to stay conscious. But the metaphor is is kinda deep when you realize all the horses are named after real animal stars that were "sacrificed" to the industry....
You can REALLY tell that a biologist was consulted in the creation of JJ, Nope was a REALLY rare treat of a movie
I don’t think they really did. I thought it was silly that it only attacks when you look at it. So to avoid being eaten, all you have to do is not look at it?? Lol
@@ROVA00 There are actually a lot of animals that become aggressive with eye contact! Like domestic dogs, for example. Or, it could be the opposite of something like a tiger, where IIRC people in areas where they live would wear masks backwards to avoid being eaten because they're ambush predators and wait for their prey to look away to move in for a strike, generally. Animals are super weird, it could be that it looks for a facial features to ensure something is alive before eating it. Even if it is just a funny "horror movie monster" trait, there's nothing wrong with that- it's speculative biology after all. We can't really study it properly and figure out what evolutionary pressures would cause such behaviors.
@@SlenderWolf109 yeah I know it’s only a movie but like you said, you would think that an ambush predator would take the opportunity to attack when the prey isn’t looking! But the alien didn’t seem to attack unless someone was looking. Weird!
@@ROVA00 Real animals are super weird, too- That's part of why zoology and animal behavior is so fascinating! There's so much that we don't know about why animals do the things they do- a lot of it is just our best guesses. And even then, there are SO many species that we haven't paid much attention to, so some of them could be doing EVEN WEIRDER stuff than we think and we just haven't seen it yet! That's the fun of speculative biology- what could an animal do? What reasons could it do that? How would it do that? Dismissing stuff as "just movie weirdness" is absolutely a valid choice, of course, but it's a lot of fun to speculate!
@@SlenderWolf109 agreed!
The scene with the people screaming and the blood rain is truly fucking chilling
I love Peele's work
@A R absolutely
It's extremely haunting to think about
It’s a shame he didn’t put a few more scenes like this in the film, I feel like the people being digested inside the ufo wasn’t enough
@A R eh
That's the only part I like

Saw people mentioning that the shoe was just something that grabbed his eye and kept him calm, but didn’t mention that he’s dissociating. It’s a very common thing that happens to people during severe trauma, especially when the victim is young. You part ways with reality in your head because the brain is using a last ditch attempt to protect you. The last thing it can do for you is to make you not feel it in the moment. And he took that calmness and the protection it afforded him and gave it (false) meaning.
Coolest alien movie I've seen in years. I gave it a 5/5 for it's great narrative, creativity and originality. Jordan Peele knows what he's doing and I can't wait for his next movie.
The idea that Jean Jacket isn't the only one up there, that there are others, and that there are things up there that Jean Jacket and its ilk are eating could probably be a horror movie in itself.
plot twist , tornadoes are just a Feeding Frenzy and hurricanes are breeding cycle
@@serronserron1320 that's a really cool idea. But I imagine if tornadoes are indeed feeding frenzy, then the Occulunimbus (Jean Jacket's species name) must be really huge.

During certain scenes, you can actually see the alien "looking" around from the very edge of its "saucer" tip section. Its a tiny black opening, like a dot, that its looking through. When angel is wrapped in the barb wire and looking at it, you can see the dot swivel around towards him and it stays locked on him when it flies past to double back behind him. You can see the duvet here at 18:30 when its chasing OJ.
Good catch I didn't see that.
7:15 - Yeah that was my one and only gripe with the movie. This is rural California, on a ranch which keeps valuable livestock and holds many acres of land. There is ZERO chance they wouldn't have any guns for staving off wild animals, or obviously livestock thieves.
in my own opinion, the shoe standing upright is the bad miracle OJ mentions. its the amazing uncanny thing that came from a horrible incident much like the coin from the sky that killed his father. it gave him the push to figure out what really happened and eventually find jean jacket.
Interesting thinking!
Also the shoe is such a wierd thing that Glenn from Walking Dead focused on instead of looking Gordy in the eyes. So he feels like it's a charm or something which is why he keeps it.
You right and it’s 5 of them
Agreed, he probably felt it was a destiny thing. This marked him for this special destiny to find jean jacket.
@@lorielliott4529 tru true and him never realizing it was never a special bond between gordy and him it was him looking at the shoe instead of gordys eyes so gordy didnt feel threatened, it was a freak accident down to the core but jupe developed main character syndrome from it all.
Definitely one of my all time favorite monster designs. It travels in disc form and unfurls into some sort of angelic/jellyfish abomination.

Just a bedsheet 👻
@@Asmokedetector Jellyfish are also bedsheet-like. What's your point?
I can’t get enough of this movie. I watched it for the sixth time last night pausing,rewinding at certain points. I’ve not felt like that for many years over a single movie.
This analysis is amazing! Thank you so much.
I think the shoe is just one of those bizarre details that sticks in your mind when going through a traumatic experience. I remember as a child I'd stare at random things and remember small unrelated details, kind of like your brain escaping the situation
it also saved jupe by distracting him from looking the chimp in the eyes during his rage, which is an overall theme of the movie. avoiding eye contact with wild animals
@@disposable3167 oh dam you're right, I didn't think about that!
I thought he saw the erect shoe as a miracle, a Devine occurrence. Like him surviving the chimp attack unscathed while everyone else, well, didn’t. The same with JJ. He sees JJ as some Devine occurrence, in the middle of something so gruesome. I mean he knew what happened to the horses, and most likely knew how the hikers met their end. Obviously he didn’t think JJ was a threat to him. Perhaps it was a way for him get get over his survivors guilt. He was MEANT to live (and not have his face eaten away). The fact that these wild beasts with the power to kill seemed to let him alone made him feel impervious.
funny thing is you're the first person to actually interpret jupe's shoe standing up properly because our good friend mr peele actually confirmed that's what it symbolizes lol, everyone was thinking wayyyy too hard about that
@@jamesfrederick99 my thoughts as well. A “bad miracle” like OJ says in the movie
The shoe can be seen as two things, 1 being a writing reference “waiting for the other shoe to drop” which is suppose to convey suspense and 2: a bad miracle, which is something so impossible that can be seen as a miracle but something bad happened to create it
Yea the term "waiting for the other shoe to drop" is a saying in which if u think this is bad now, wait till you really see whats gonna happen.
The thing is that miracles themselves aren't inherently good things. Back in "Ye Olden Times", this word was used to designate anything that was beyond understanding and couldn't be explained at the time, regardless of whether people saw them as good or bad.
One clear cut example of this is the medieval "Book of Miracles", which depicts many unexplainable events that are supposed to be signs of the apocalypse. The abundant presence of comets in the pages lends credence to this, since back then they were seen as bad omens or warnings from higher powers.
or maybe the shoe saved his life as he was looking at the shoe and not the ape in the eyes.
Absolutely fascinating deep dive into the anatomy and origin of JJ. Super love and appreciate the expert level of nerding out here. 👏👊🙌
this explanation makes so much sense especially when you reverse the logic with giant whales and now I can't stop thinking about historical imagery, recollections, abduction theories and inexplicable disappearances tied to spottings of UFO's
I’ve seen people say “it’s just a movie, they haven’t actually thought into it that much” but the fact that you can actually think this far into it shows how many details were put into it.
It's really disrespectful to the art of storytelling, if you ask me
@@marcopohl3236 I think it's more of the fact that Peele is just not super creative to the point he would think of all that. He just kinda grabs a random motif and beats the absolute fuck out of it for a full movie.
one thing they should know is that, in almost any kind of art, there is always a meaning to how eerything is put it together... you can see this in any behind the scenes o movies, usually everything is calculated, and when its not... its because they didnt want it.
you dont draw, and hope to make a visible image, you have to think off what you want to do... (the text below gets too personal in my opinion, im so srry)
and thats why this modern art trend about throwing paint to a white screen its so disrescpectful, anyone can do it, dont you dare tell me they were the fisrt to do it and thats why its valuable... like this dude that sold his own feces on fish cans, "oh, im bringing a message" my man, thats disgusting, what if i vomit al over a water bottle and try to sell it? thats art?
@@marcopohl3236 Why so? Stories with so many details are pretty cool to me. Reminds me of games like Dark Souls and stuff
@@snowangel7635 I meant the attitude that Original_Demonic complained about
the standing shoe represents nothing but pure luck. But Jupe thought it was some sort of divine intervention, because Gordy didn't go full chimp on him. That's why before starting the live-show monologue, he whispered to himself that he is chosen.
Ahhhhhh okay I could see that
@@RoanokeGaming I see yoouu 👁️
👁️,👁️
@@RoanokeGaming One of the two shoes is lying around. The other one never dropped for him.
I like to think it's an early being that just evolved so well to conceal itself that it simply took us that long to discover it
I've searched high and low for this exact video! Thanks!
In the off chance no one else had explained, the shoe is just as OJ said: "A bad miracle." It also inspired Jupe to think he was special in being alive at the moment, living despite the tablecloth protecting him, and making him think he has a special purpose in seeing a UFO.
I so appreciate you mentioning that the greenscreen tendrils are an aggressive action. It's seizing up OJ, as this human has CONSTANTLY gotten away and hurt it. That's why OJ lives! He's the BIGGER predator. Also it's heavily hinted at that we HAVE seen this species before; in old pictures of UFOs BUT ALSO in the Purple People Eater song. Holst sings it FOR a reason; we keep seeing monsters and telling legends, but we just...shrug them off as fairytales. Or...even Angels from the Bible.
I thought oj died and that was like an image that she saw in his memory like a victory idk maybe I was wrong lol I really wanna watch the movie again after this video
@@dumdude1083 A lot of people thought that so you aren't alone! But no he lived, bc he understood handling animals with respect. So JJ saw him as the bigger predator and entered an agreement in letting him live for weaker prey. BUT Emerald had the balloon >D

I'm really enjoying your work sir 👍
Excellent movie and great breakdown of it .
5:58 The reason it's greenscreen is because Fry's went bankrupt and shut down during the pandemic, and the exterior shots you see was basically the last footage ever taken of that location before it was torn down.
That's kinda funny and sad
the building was never torn down
I like how Jordan Peele went with the "unidentified atmospheric organism" pivot when everyone was expecting plain ol' UFOs and aliens.
He kind of explains away UFOs in general as being these organisms the whole time. Crazy clever
I love the scene in the barnyard, it shows that if he wanted he could make a straight up UFO alien movie, but he choosed not to
@@ezachleewright2309 I also enjoyed the idea that Jean Jacket's different forms could account for the the biblical depictions of angels. Unfolded in it's display state, it very much resembles a six-winged seraphim.
Exactly when I first saw the trailer I was like I love Jordan but most his movies are based in some realism or deeper meaning and I’m like now how he gonna do that with aliens? Still would have watched it but I thought he was just switching into making a simple horror movie but then I watched it and was like “yep that’s Jordan peele for you” just completely flipped the script on me.
I'm glad tbh
I finally just watched it and now I just know how this would work so thank you for this video
The shoe is actually the test to see if you would survive Jean Jacket. During that scene, you either look at Gordy at the face, triggering the chimp's aggression and dying, or you get fixated on the shoe like Ricky did.
Jordan Peele really read an SCP report and said "I'm making this."
And did a pretty good job.

A couple notes, Antlers is seen popping pills before the "impossible shot" and while reviewing the old footage, suggesting that part of the reason he's taking the shot, is that he's dying anyways. The tube men were less about attracting Jean Jacket and more being a very obvious indicator of where it is without looking AT it.
Yeah. The eyes are attracting it to them and also an added bonus of being inorganic. So he eats them,they fuck him up.
@@trialerrorsharer9398 nah it was so they could track it. they like said out loud explaining about how his powers will emp them. Saying it's to atract and be eaten by him is just an opinion
@@Master__Chief117I don’t know if it’s apart of the original plan they make or if they realize it as it goes but they show what I said in the movie. It’s not my opinion that JJ sees the eyes,eats the inflatables,gets fucked up and becomes insanely defensive . It happens in the movie. JJ literally eats the Jupe balloon because of the eyes and Em knows it’s going to happen because it happened with the other balloons that had eyes. It happens in the movie. The eyes attract JJ to the inflatables,JJ eats inflatables,becomes more and more disoriented.
@@trialerrorsharer9398 lol myb
They were run by electricity so when they didn't operate, it indicated that Jean Jacket was near....
There is one little detail you've missed out. The biker who was filming for TMZ asked why the entire area was completely blanked out on satellite imagery. This implies that the US government is aware that UAP has been taking place there for years.

hi this video made me watch Nope for the first time, and i just want to say THANK YOU because that movie is incredible oh my god
When I say YOU BROKE THAT TF DOWN!!! Best review I’ve seen 🙌🏾
i like to think that JJ went into an aggression/intimidation form because it saw OJ as its equal or a rival, not prey.
That definitely tracks with when it flaps it's eye at him towards the end, to me thats the both of them posturing at each other. I think thats why OJ lived, too. I think his posturing was something JJ hadn't dealt with before so it didn't kill him.
That's how I saw the blood storm as well. It was a threat display in an attempt to drive OJ out of his "territory" without having to resort to a fight, just like animals vying for hunting grounds. I like to think JJ saw OJ as just another animal and wanted to expand its territory.
I think Roanoke left this out but did anyone else notice that Jean Jacket made clicking noises similar to a dolphin? I think that was probably another method of hunting or just navigating. It would make sense given how JJ was modeled after sea animals.
I interpreted that as it mimicking OJ clicking for the horse
I thought that was bones breaking as the people were digested
@@RakeV8 i dont think bones would be that loud from that far. Echo location, my guess.

The way the ship glides through the air is sooo soothing.
I love the idea that in this universe, the majority of UFO sightings have just been this. The shape is perfect with a disc body and the huge hole in the bottom plus the "tractor beam" that it uses is reminiscent of alien abductions. It's unfolded form is interesting too, maybe people in olden times saw this thing coming down every now and again and based biblical depictions of angels of off them. With its huge towering wings and the holes in them possibly being interpreted as eyes, it's not too farfetched
BE NOT AFRAID
Only thing it doesn't explain, is the abduction memories people have/the people who show up hours later with no memories.
@@kyleellis1825 maybe you could chalk it up to mass hysteria? People can delude themselves with what they think will happen.

Could it be that Jean jacket was a filter feeder? The motions of digestion through squeezing to me seems like a form of filtering edible and inedible things. This could also explain the species never being seen since it could use negative pressure to eat large amounts of fauna from any water or sand it encounters.
Honestly I was kinda thinking that while watching the end where it unfurled it's body cause I could totally see it surviving by doing what whales do and suck in a bunch of air and filter out all the edible stuff
High quality comment amongst trash
feeding on what though?
why contend with living, thinking, potentially dangerous creatures for ressources?
At JJ's level of power you could just inhale interstellar clouds of hydrogen, or rip the phosphorus straight from a rocky planets mantle.
also how would it excrete inedibles?
@@nouhorni3229 We see the movie start with, and it becomes a plot point, that it absorbs what is edible and merely spits out what is not. Already existing organics will always be more energy efficient to consume then trying to make organics from minerals like a plant does. It likely filter feeds microbial life normally, until Jupe started baiting Jean Jacket. Microbial life lives in the air and potentially the stratosphere, airborne microbes of various kind have been referred to as "atmospheric krill". Earths upper atmosphere having massive filter feeders is not too far outside of possibility. Suggesting an interstellar food source for a creature likely incapable of leaving the atmosphere is somewhere silly.
@@nouhorni3229 it might require something specific to organic life maybe a specific kind of bacteria from the stratoshere.
Otis, Sr., wasn't speaking just random words in the truck. Those were the names of his horses he was reciting. Really sad as this shows how much his horses were esteemed in his heart.

I saw a theory that Jean Jacket instead of flapping, used ionic propulsion to float and move around, which is also how it messes with electronics. (The field is so strong it shuts them off)

@Armando Tarziu ok
33:12 This would actually give credence to that Roswell UFO incident back then. It would also make sense why they would later say that it was a weather balloon, because it kinda looks like one, at least whatever material it’s made out of looks like one.
thats an interesting idea actually, maybe all weather balloons are these things since they go so high, atleast in this universe haha
This thing is starting to fit into the real world so well its making me lowkey worry
"This would actually give credence to that Roswell UFO incident back then. It would also make sense why they would later say that it was a weather balloon, because it kinda looks like one, at least whatever material it’s made out of looks like one."
That's because it was a weather balloon, or rather a heavily modified one that was carrying microphones and recorders to pick up and record sounds in the jet stream, radio transmitters to broadcast those sounds back to listening posts and radar targets so the balloons could be tracked by radar so that when they picked up the blast of a nuclear weapons test, they could triangulate where the sound came from, the project was code named "Mogul". It was a rather ingenious way to spy on the soviet nuclear weapons program without actually needing to put spies on the ground in the U.S.S.R. and risk being caught. The whole "covering up UFO's" bs was a cleaver cover story cooked up by the U.S. Government to through the soviets off the scent.
@@Princess_Celestia_ Just as a clarification; I’m not actually saying it was a real UFO IRL. I’m just saying that, if the Roswell incident also happened in this movie’s universe, it would make sense that what they actually saw was this creature.

@@Anonymous38572 we talking at a distance? Or close up through the table cloth?
Cause he does at one point through the table cloth, but Gordy goes for the Exploding Fist Bump.
Gordy noticed him at a distance and that's why he approached, but if I remember correctly, we don't see Jupe's eyes in the shot. Just the back of his head. What's more the shoe is also in the shot from that vantage point.
The table cloth obscured him looking him in the eye.
I love how after a certain point you just start talking about this thing as if it's a real animal, way to get the viewer immersed!! :D
this is honestly one of the most creative ways of using old alien stereotypes but making them feel like something we would genuinely see if aliens tried to visit us, we dont even know if aliens would be the same size as us let alone be humanoid, they could be giant monsters that come down to the planet and scoop people into their hungry mouths,
The digestion and blood rain reminded me of War of the Worlds: they drained everyone and sprayed blood every where. That movie scene still gets me, I had a similar feeling of dread when the demon jellyfish ate everyone.
Same!
Hear me out; that thing takes AT LEAST a good couple minutes to kill the people inside.... If any single one of those people had a pocket knife they could cut their way out, or at least kill it from the inside.

@@BlooCollaGal I said the same thing, not one person had a weapon on them.

IDK about you but I have no trouble holding onto my pocket knife when I'm elbow deep field dressing a deer, so an alien's stomach shouldn't be much of an issue.
"Wet ammo" hasn't been a problem since we switched to brass cartridges, the rounds will fire even when completely submerged (the rest of the gun might not function underwater though).
What’s scary to me is that not Jean jacket itself but the fact that it camouflages in the clouds. Why would a deadly predator need to hide? Does that mean it’s not the apex predator of the sky?
That occurred to me as well. It could possibly be more of an ambush predator which incidentally kept its existence secret until feeding it taught it boldness. Or possibly the territorial nature of the species makes itself its worst enemy and they hide from others of their species. I like the second idea.
Heh, bigger predator. As JJ flares in challenge to the big float, tentacles descend from unseen heights and JJ is violently pulled upwards and out of sight, leaving the characters staring up at nothing but the float, with no proof and no one believing them. Some proof. It’s hard to ignore a gore covered house.
Even the lion stalks its prey y’know?
@@carljensen333 that just means it’s territorial, look at apex predators in the wild. Most of em aren’t just putting themselves out there like that lol
To some degree they might be susceptible to attacks from eagles. Some eagles can fly over 3 miles high, they travel at high speeds, and have razar sharp talons. Jean Jacket and its kind would want to avoid that kind of interaction
usually apex predators do the opposite when hunting, they are apex because they know how to get close to a victim without getting caught, so they can aproach and thus, be more precise.
This leads to the predator having more opportunities to strike a lethal shot, which reduces the chance of the prey to defend itself.
Sharks have those colors because they help them camoflage from below and from above and they mix it with their strong physic and saw-like teeth and bite force.
Owls have specialized wings that silence their flight, with also sharp and strong claws...
Which eagles also have, even tho they arent as silent, they hae a bio.mechanism that allows their claws to just get close without even trying, till the victim dies.
Dragonflies, are the most succesfull hunters o nature, thanks to their highly flight capabilities and speed, they just overcome any other insects, even flies.
Even tyranosaurus was like this, they werent has fast has their usual prey, but they had the strongest bite force, thus reducing the need for persecussion.
When an apex isnt sneaky, its because it has other advantages, like pack hunters. Wolfs,spermwhales and Orcas for example, are also apex predators.
