Peele going from Keanu, a completely unremarkable and forgettable comedy, to Get Out, in just under a year is an amazing transformation
Nope was my favorite of the 3 and I do not consider myself super intelligent. Street smart, got it. Book smart, struggle.
So I think it's just about how things make you "feel", you're not stupid 💕😏🤣
Edit:
To me, this movie made perfect sense - people are willing to do whatever to get that "it"... Attention, money, clout - not realizing that "it" is never truly attainable and it's like a drug, one taste and it'll never be enough which is what social media has done to our society, especially the younger generations.
There are so many ways to digest this film that I think that's the point.
It was also a love story to film making.
I understand why you say you felt that the part with Jupe and the audience being killed by Jean Jacket (the alien) didn't tie into the story enough. I think it did though, because now Jean Jacket is established as a threat. It already killed OJ's dad but that was a freak accident. Now it's killing hundreds of people intentionally and the main characters are next. If it weren't for that scene, Jean Jacket would pose no large threat, and the climax of the film, and the character's need to film it, would feel rather pointless.
Some of the best horror movies of this generation for sure
I’d rank his films:
1.) Us
2.) Get Out
3.) NOPE
I love all of his movies so far. They haven’t disappointed me honestly. I was conflicted about “NOPE” at first but I started to love it the more I thought about it and when I went to go see it for a second time. I love the direction he’s been going in after “Get Out” and can’t wait to see what he does next. Nice video btw!
I completely agree with your list. Whenever I say I like Us a little more than Get Out, people absolutely lose their shit. Glad to see that I'm not the only one.
@@shanumutyampeta exactly like it’s crazy. I get that “Get Out” is considered his best film by a lot of people but I don’t think it is but hey that’s just me lol
us is peeles worse by far. and as he makes more films I cant see that changing lmao it'll forever be at the bottom for me. so disappointing and cliché. edit: however it DID have the vest trailer. i sing that song outloud to this day, yes, even the bum bum bum...bum bum bum...bum bum bum...bum bum bum...bum bum bum
@@Antwannnn and that’s cool, that’s your opinion bro
I have literally same ranking as yours. I think nope could have been more mysterious and horror. But I love all 3 movies. I recently watched all 3 movies back to back and man what a genius filmmaking. I was bored watching all mediocre hollywood flicks since last few years but this 3 movies were so fresh and original.
I really love us, it’s pretty underrated
deff my favorite
For me, nope told the same story 3 x. 1st time with Gordy (wild animal that is exploited and disrespected till it lashes out = humans get hurt), Lucky (O.J being ignored when telling ppl to not look at its eyes or stand behind the horse, animal is disrespected = lucky lashes out) and finally J.J, (an alien animal which has its rules disrespected as its being exploited in how ppl look at it = humans get eaten).
The thing is, the scene with Gordy did more than tell the theme again to the audience, it set up the framework of why Jupe Park does what he does. He was a South- Korean American kid actor being exploited just as much as Gordy was, yet in his unhealed trauma of that event, he learned the wrong lesson and ended up repeating what happened to him by trying to tame a wild animal for spectacle and fame just like how his former cast members were doing the same with Gordy. In doing this, he got innocent ppl killed, one of them being a fellow victim to the Gordy attack, just like the Producers of Gordy's Home got his actor parents killed and his actor sister maimed. See, that's the point, this kind of thing can become a viscous cycle of ppl not learning healthy coping mechanisms due to lack of dealing with their trauma.
The shoe standing up is interpreted differently, but for me the two things it represents is being a "bad miracle" in what are the odds of it landing like that during a chimp attack, and the physical manifestation of "Waiting for the other shoe to drop" , which it eventually did with Jean Jacket. Though here's a wild thought: WHO SAYS THE SHOE WAS ACTUALLY STANDING?! It's through Jupe's pov, who says he's a reliable narrator? For all we know this is something his mind was creating to help him process with what is happening around him. We have seen studies of trauma survivors picking up on a specific thing during a traumatic event as a way to process their situation . Here's a good article surrounding trauma and memory: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4337233/
He saw himself as special for surviving unharmed and thought he had a special way with animals, instead of learning that you can't domesticate wild animals so easily, especially animals that are physically stronger than humans; hence why we had him recreating the terrible situation where Gordy's home could essentially happen again.
Jupe park was also a foil to O.J , another man who is a visible minority and who also has been exploited by Hollywood (his family struggling for recognition and never getting the credit they deserved), yet O.J wasn't an actor who had a bad experience with a wild animal lashing out, he's an animal wrangler. O.J, unlike Jupe, is able to read animal body language, hence why he only ha to spot J.J two times before getting an idea that it wasn't a ship.
Side note: if we see the main cast, almost all of the main cast are minorities, OJ and Em are black american, Jupe being S.Korean-American and Angel being Latino/Hispanic American. Antlers and other white characters, on the other hand are more secondary characters and they for the most part, make ignorant decisions that bring danger to our main cast (ex. Gordy's home white producers and rest of cast, Antlers insisting on the "impossible shot"). I think there is a very interesting commentary being made with the play between how Jupe (who is an "Asian" minority which is normally seen as a "better" minority for being less aggressive or violent than Latino/Hispanic and Black minority groups ) is in his perhaps subconscious attempt to fit in better with white society does more harm than good . BUT MAYBE I AM REACHING *SHRUGS*
Here's the thing though regarding Logan Paul's remark, which I am going to respectfully be against; In a movie where Peele is making a commentary on human need for watching spectacle, especially horrific tragedy's shown as spectacle, and the stupid decisions people make to create/tape/watch that very spectacle, why would cinematic choices that create mystery, violent allure and shock be out of place? Isn't that part of the point? Please note I find it ironic that Logan Paul had such a hard time with this movie considering his rise to infamy, though I get this style of movie isn't for everyone.
Thanks for this review, I really enjoyed your interpretation of the 1st two movies and I think you got the theme of the last movie really well XD
Bro please do an analysis of the
breaking bad / Better call Saul universe. I’d love to hear your thoughts on everything as a whole in this style of video. Keep it up man👍
Hell yeah
Jordan's three films are related to Japanese monkeys based on the theme of the film:
Get Out (2017) - I don't hear
US (2019) - I don't speak
NOPE (2022) - I don't see
Great In Depth Analysis 🧐
I’m yet to see Get Out or Us, but I really loved Nope when I first saw it. I’m really excited to see his previous work.
Psychology of Robert Eggers or video on Robert Eggers!
My answer for Jupe’s friend would be a reflection of us.
How we don’t learn our lesson from tragic events.
Referring to the ape mauling in real life and the killer whale who killed multiple sea world employees… yet we still use these animals for entertainment after seeing what they are capable of… potentially causing more people to suffer in the future because nothing changes.
The thing is Nope isn't a horror movie, it's sci-fi thiller about aliens with a touch western. This was Jaws but with aliens, a summer block buster movie. Steven Yeun and Keith David deaths from the alien is all about them chasing fame and money. Why they died from alien related deaths. Keith David death as the father, he died chasing money and to add insult to injury it was nickel. Steven Yeun character not only collect things from Gordy attack but used it to make more money. And him inviting his "crush" from the Gordy attack is simply him showing off his success. The father and Jupe were cautionary tales about spending your life chasing fame. Both men eventually roped their kids into family business and chasing their dreams. And they both died never reaching the "top of mountain" the flim maker said, plus he's a complete nod to Ben Gardener of Jaws thus why he also died chasing the monster.
.... ummm so how does everyone feel about Red being Adelaide and Adelaide being Red? Cuz after we know they switched spots why do ppl still call them each other?
1. Nope A+
2. Get Out A
3. Us B+
1. Get Out
2. Nope
3. Us
Just my personal opinion, i love all Jordan Peele's movies, but Get Out i believe is his most iconic work, Nope comes close to being his best too. Us is my least favorite, i thought the social commentary felt flat and the pacing, story and characters weren't very good.
0:10 to be fair Jim Carrey is definitely a loon.
