A successful yuppie faces an existential crisis after a ghoul joins his social circle. GREEN EYED is used with permission from Nathaniel Lindsay. Learn more at nathaniellindsay.com.
Lloyd thought he could buy friends and happiness with his money. He came to the realization that in doing so he created a monster (Phillipe), that no one really liked him, not even his wife. They were all there for his money and the good times it bought.
Spoiler! I haven't seen it pointed out yet, so I might as well throw it out there. The main character and Felipe are the same person. This is revealed at the end when suddenly there is only one red car - the true reality. Felipe only seems to exist because the story is depicted through the eyes of an unreliable narrator, but I'd wager Felipe is actually an imagined projection of what the protagonist wishes he were... One that is unbeatably cultered in all ways, but as a result devoid of humanity and ugly as a person. In his quest to best Felipe, he only ends up harming himself (by damaging his car), because his nemesis is in fact himself.
What he wanted to be seen as, was personified in his mind. Basically he saw himself as the other person and hated it. May be this is The Imposter syndrome
Ill try my best to let everyone understand what's happening in short.... Basically he saw his own self unfold to what he wanted to be and hated it so much he wanted to end it and thus in the end he realised this fact. Edit: his other self (Felipe) is a representation of his greed
Jhamroxk One Of One the guy was himself yes.. but the guy was also burnt like he was in the car. So how damn confusing is this. Time bending, conscious bending wtf
What I understand is that Felipe is him before he became rich and obsessed with fame and that shows that people loved him for what he is not for his money , and his hate for his old self made him see it that ugly
I have been around such insecure, self-absorbed narcissists all my iife. They need constant adoration and will give it to themselves if they do not receive it. My take is that here comes a guy who he thinks does not measure up and is livid when people like and respect the "ghoul" more than they respect him.
I think I get it. It's called "Green Eyed". Green as in jealousy. He was a rich man with everything you ever wanted. When someone better than him came along, instead of embracing that person as a friend, he saw a monster who came to destroy him and his glory.
The term is ; .Green with envy. So your eyes would be green with envy if you covet another's possessions. There's a difference between envy and jealousy.
The all devouring enemies of this world...lust, anger, greed, envy, madness and illusion. We must be careful how and what we desire lest we become it. I quite enjoyed that..thank you.
The disgust in his face is hilarious. I dont think i felt like that toward another. But Felipe looks like a nicely dressed alien. I cant blame the guy for being freaked out alittle but his attitude isnt ok. Now i think about it maybe the way he looks at him is how i view my ex 😂😂😅
The most impressive part of this was that the filmmakers were able to get actual wooden tennis rackets. Seriously, though, this was a pleasant surprise. I was afraid it was going to turn into some heavy-handed morality tale, but it turned out to have a much lighter (and funnier) touch.
This is hilarious. He is seen as a ghoul bc he is a threat. We hear no words from the Ghoul's mouth bc whatever the says would be meaningless to Lloyd other than Lloyd's desire to one up him to stay ahead in the social / influence/ prestige circle. Sometimes some people will literally see you as ugly bc you represent a threat to their norms, status or desired status projectory. On the other end it can be very hard to manage when a person of influence or set of people of influence view you as the foe. You have to learn how to deftly navigate the situation without breaking often unspoken codes you may not necessarily be acquainted with. undoubtedly one or more may set a 'trap' in hopes to see you drown. Or perhaps as others have stated the ghoul is actually himself
Love this and setting in past era was really well done too love the 80s feel Some neat comments here Best one I read the only crisis a yuppie has is someone showing him up. Lots of different takes on this are in comments and all are really good ideas! Pretty cool we can watch the same thing and take it alll different ways and seem correct each time lol I love it!
The fancy tie from Hong Kong bought on a business trip line reminds me of my Uncle. He said the exact same thing and wore fancy clothes. He gave me some of his old ties, they look cool actually.
Ok... this is my theory: Phillipe is not just one man. Phillipe is several men. We only hear the name “Phillipe” and we only see the same face, as does the main character. “Green Eyed” the main character is envious jealous of all those men Towards the end consumed with jealousy he starts to fantasise about killing “Phillipe... therefore a distortion of reality & imagination. - we are watching the scenes through someone elses Green Eyes... (the main character) it’s his perspective
There is definitely a full length film here, good lord. The possibilities..... Very well done Omelete, very impressive. Love the 80's synthwave soundtrack too. Classic analog
He finally saw himself in the mirror and what he saw was truly grotesque. He tries to destroy it in the end but is it too late? I definitely like the setting.
This is my interpretation of it. What if that strange looking dude is someone better than him and he got jealous. When he thought he killed that dude in the end, somehow that dude came back. What if the end signifies that there will always be someone better than you (i guess socially, intellectually, etc) even when you try to get rid of that someone.
We cannot escape who we are. Unfortunately, we might not like who we are. Great show! The 80's are perfectly captured. (Yuck!) Another Omeleto hit. Thanks to everyone involved in the making if this film.
The routine "burned down to the ground factory in 78'" it's been trying to hold up at it's hardest but I'm curious to know since when Dominican cigars out valued Cuban cigars for that matter and expensive sushi? .. dang lol
Кино
Yeah yeah yeah he has cigars, but what does his business cards look like?
Amazing
Haha hell yea. This is a next level comment.... "Raised lettering...pale nimbus."
Abby..the American Psycho 'business card' scene..would have worked beautifully here...especially if they'll had the best card...
Eyyy loving the reference
Good reference😉
Ghouls just want to have fun.
😄
Best original comment!
You go ghoul!
Yeah...Yeah they do! lmao!!!!
so they party
“We all wear masks, and the time comes when we cannot remove them without removing some of our own skin.”
ew. you need to change your mask more often. i'm never the same person from one week to the next. in fact...i'm most likely a cat.
Ahhh..the masks we wear. Metaphorically speaking.
@@eyecomeinpeace2707 That's correct Wendy. We all wear masks, metaphorically speaking...
Wow. This hit me hard. Thats so true. Where did you hear that? Or did you come up with it yourself? So deep man..
True, and well said!
I love the story, but I love that it was set in the 80's even more.
YES Kiinell...the opening shot where the lead had the phone with the little antenna just made me roll on the floor with nostalgia!!!
I love everything set in the 80's.
Best decade, even the beginning to mid 90s weren’t that bad either, but music and movie wise, that was definitely the best decade ever.
@@RalphCunha At the time, we sure didn't appreciate it.
"that's an unattractive tone you've got there". Classic
He said "Japanese food" like it was some super expensive stuff but it turns out to be the cheapest kind of sushi you can make :/
Yeah i thought crazy sashimi....
I mean back in the 80s japanese food in western countries was a pretty big deal
This is based in the 80s dude
It's pronounced SUshe
It's the eightees did you notice how he pronounced it Su-shee
Story of a man ‘seeing’ himself.
Lloyd thought he could buy friends and happiness with his money. He came to the realization that in doing so he created a monster (Phillipe), that no one really liked him, not even his wife. They were all there for his money and the good times it bought.
Ok thinks I was wondering.
Is that voldemorts twin?
Omg Strawberry Oh wow i really like your Profile-Picture
That's exactly what i was thinking XD
To me he looks more like one of those orcs from the hobbit
I looked at your profile pic and almost cried. I'm still not over that...
A Bad Box of Twinkiz I’m sure a lot of people are not over it. I hope things will get better for the group and fans!
I thought the ghoul was straight up gonna eat someone at the party
"eat" yes, yes he did
i wonder why a disproportionately large percentage of omeleto films are symbolic, rather than just straightforward drama.
That's a good thing. That I notice not everyone kens.
/it works\ 1. Because your still wondering
2. Your still talking about it
Because who ACTUALLY likes basic?
@@4cylindermachine203 You're.
I bet that they like to think this way because it makes them feel smart.
I love how it was set in the 80's...
So...nobody's going to talk about how that ghoul has some moves 🕺
Spoiler! I haven't seen it pointed out yet, so I might as well throw it out there. The main character and Felipe are the same person. This is revealed at the end when suddenly there is only one red car - the true reality. Felipe only seems to exist because the story is depicted through the eyes of an unreliable narrator, but I'd wager Felipe is actually an imagined projection of what the protagonist wishes he were...

Exactly what I believe too. Couldn't have written it anymore beautifully
It is obvious way before that though.
Nicely done, Sir!
I thought the same thing. At the end, was the narrator wet when he burned up the car? Because that would indicate that he threw himself in the pool.
What he wanted to be seen as, was personified in his mind. Basically he saw himself as the other person and hated it. May be this is The Imposter syndrome
That makes a lot of sense. He actually thinks of himself as a monster in some way.
It's like in the movie The Double by Richard Aoyade
An ancient proverb: 'There's no such thing as an ugly, rich bloke'.
Doron Ron lol
Ill try my best to let everyone understand what's happening in short....
Basically he saw his own self unfold to what he wanted to be and hated it so much he wanted to end it and thus in the end he realised this fact.
Edit: his other self (Felipe) is a representation of his greed
I think what he wanted to be, that he saw in that guy, and due to jealously he tried to kill him.
I agree. It's actually the same person. But if he would kept going like he did, This was what he would become. Now he hopefully changed his mind
strange cat at the end he obviously burned his own car not Felipe's this showing tht he was actually trying to kill his own greed
Jhamroxk One Of One the guy was himself yes.. but the guy was also burnt like he was in the car. So how damn confusing is this. Time bending, conscious bending wtf
But it doesn't make sense since Felipe was cool and he wasn't a dick and everyone liked him lol
What I understand is that Felipe is him before he became rich and obsessed with fame and that shows that people loved him for what he is not for his money , and his hate for his old self made him see it that ugly
It's funny that he doesn't want germans at his party yet he has a Porsche
@marco conti Porsche is headquartered in Stuttgart, and is owned by Volkswagen.
marco conti And Ferdinand Porsche was a Sudetendeutsche originally from Czechslovakia
@marco conti Porsche is German they made tanks for Germany during ww2
@marco conti He was born in Maffersdorf / Liberec in 1875, so all answers are correct. I think this was part of the austro-hungarian empire in 1875.
@@tstor100 yeah you correct but it was always a german company it was founded there
That's one cool ghoul. He's got all the best dance moves.
I have been around such insecure, self-absorbed narcissists all my iife. They need constant adoration and will give it to themselves if they do not receive it. My take is that here comes a guy who he thinks does not measure up and is livid when people like and respect the "ghoul" more than they respect him.
Also, as he was burining cars, he could not tell one from another, suggesting, as people have said, that he didn't know the ghoul from himself
"I have been around such insecure, self-absorbed narcissists all my iife." Like attracts like, just sayin'.
I think I get it. It's called "Green Eyed". Green as in jealousy. He was a rich man with everything you ever wanted. When someone better than him came along, instead of embracing that person as a friend, he saw a monster who came to destroy him and his glory.
The term is ; .Green with envy. So your eyes would be green with envy if you covet another's possessions. There's a difference between envy and jealousy.
I didn't get this until i remembered green eyed means to act out of character because of jealousy
Devin Mearidy sounds like someone looked some stuff up and then added a comment to look smart. Good for you.
Katie Kat haha I just saw ur other reply on another comment and ur really desperate to know the meaning of the video so don’t hate on other ppl😂
@@katiekat4457 Wow. Speaking of green-eyed... 😒
Katie Kat jealous, are you?
no kidding,,,the saying "the green eyed monster is showing"...i.e jealousy...been around for decades
The only way he can appreciate who he is is by imagining how others see him.
At some point then he becomes them and finally realizes who he is.
8:35 he let him drive home completely drunk? 'Perhaps your wife should drive?' Um..apparently not, Anyone else question that?
because he didn't really care about the safety and well-being of the man he was trying to impress, didn't want to offend him
That was mad warped.. leaving me wanting more.. I love everything you guys do.. can't wait for the next!!
The all devouring enemies of this world...lust, anger, greed, envy, madness and illusion. We must be careful how and what we desire lest we become it.
I quite enjoyed that..thank you.
First and last time I ever ate Sushi was on a Greyhound bus from the hands of a Korean couple. God bless those hands. I'll never forget that couple.
Hahaha, wtf
i feel so bad for arthur. he was treated so bad :(
when Dennis grins, he looks like an extra evil Chris Hemsworth ^^
Whenever I've been replaced in a relationship... the new guy looks like Philippe... (even if he doesn't really.)
Wow that must of happened quite a bit, to make an association!
Man I just hate it when a *ghoul* joins my social circle
Omg we found Voldemorts long lost twin XD
that's what i was thinking XD
When a narcissist doesn't phase you, they self implode lol!
Dude that thing looks way too creepy
Ikr
ur racist
I wish I was like Philippe. Cool, suave and sophisticated. I can totally see him being the next James Bond.
This GHOUL presence represents that theres definitely a huge amount of LIES and SCAMS behind this guys FORTUNE 😐
Greed is an ugly thing 😏
Love that it's set in the 80s. Never gonna die
Hil- la- ri- ous!!!! I laughed my ass off. Loved it.
I hope no air cooled 911s were injured in the making if this film.
Envy & Jealousy. The Green Eyed Monsters.
Never in my life have I seen such an intense game of tennis.
2:09 That sushi looks awful. How is the cucumber or avocado so shrunk? did they leave it out for 10 days?
Not an expert,but I thought the very same thing.
Probably it was a prop, or it did as they filmed it throughout the days.
Envy and jealousy makes us into our own ghoulish selves.
“If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you can possibly imagine.”
Philippe was the perfect name 🤣🤣🤣
Love the lady’s hair lounging by the pool!
Aaaand her eyes 😮
That cute little cigar at the end 😂
Reminds me of Fightclub
The first rule of Fight Club is: you do not talk about Fight Club. The second rule of Fight Club is: you DO NOT talk about Fight Club!
Super rare cigars, I'm the only one on Earth that has them.
Proceeds to hand them out to everybody like candy!! Now everybody has them. Clever.
This film is absolutely marvelous. A thought-provoking message beautifully filmed. 👏🏻👍🏻❤️🎞
OH! I get it! HE was the ghoul! Wow, very cool! This is an important message told in a completely creative way.
The disgust in his face is hilarious. I dont think i felt like that toward another. But Felipe looks like a nicely dressed alien. I cant blame the guy for being freaked out alittle but his attitude isnt ok. Now i think about it maybe the way he looks at him is how i view my ex 😂😂😅
Philippe is so cool- I mean Ghoul. Clothes, car, chicks, style and sophistication. He should audition for the next James Bond.
He did, just for kicks, but HE turned THEM down.
I recognize the blonde from Hemlocke Grove and The Vampire Diaries. She’s a good actress. Her name is Penelope Mitchell I believe.
These vids are excellent. Some of them remind me of Black Mirror.
That's because they serve the same purpose (programming)
Daniel Son exactly why I’m all into this after seeing the jada episode. This rocks lol
@@daniellejames3289 It's not episodes, it's short movies and they're made by completely different people. Do your research.
Daniel Benda I know, what I said made no since. Thanks.
ok BM was cool, but omeleto is WAY WAY better than black mirror.
Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar. But, then again, doesn't everybody want a ghoulfriend?!
The most impressive part of this was that the filmmakers were able to get actual wooden tennis rackets.
Seriously, though, this was a pleasant surprise. I was afraid it was going to turn into some heavy-handed morality tale, but it turned out to have a much lighter (and funnier) touch.
The sfx make-up for Phillipe is just incredible, it's flawless
What make-up?
Only the rich can afford that premium lung cancer
That would be me on a Monday morning before 10 am ... Without the porche, off course.
Omeleto from were do u get all of these crazy sad drama vids?? XD
they have contributors from colleges that send this stuff to them
mohammad Bakri itsnot vids, its films,
mohammad Bakri I'll tell u one thing these films r actually real
GalaxyVlogs3729Jason Truong oh lol I was wondering bcz they are so long and have twists
mohammad Bakri and I wonder how they film these things?
Phillipe is a good dancer.
This is hilarious. He is seen as a ghoul bc he is a threat.

Let's see Paul Allen's Dominican cigars
This has made me realise things! thanks a lot!
wow, outstanding, i love these shorts so much. i definitely understand what they're trying to get at.
Loved it.Great Job guys...Keep 'em coming
Moral of the story: when you got it you got it...
The music at the end is your own remix of the "Moon", isn't it? I can't find it anywhere.
Love this and setting in past era was really well done too love the 80s feel
Some neat comments here
Best one I read the only crisis a yuppie has is someone showing him up.
Lots of different takes on this are in comments and all are really good ideas! Pretty cool we can watch the same thing and take it alll different ways and seem correct each time lol I love it!
Yet, they failed to give the main actor an proper shirt.
‘Yeah...that sounds stylish.’ This says a lot about the guy saying it. LUV the red Porsche. 🥴
Omeleto.....the home of great production values, great acting, gorgeous girls and fine husky men...who often fail in some way. Keep 'em comin'!
I do not believe Omeleto produces any of the films posted.
The fancy tie from Hong Kong bought on a business trip line reminds me of my Uncle. He said the exact same thing and wore fancy clothes. He gave me some of his old ties, they look cool actually.
Look at those mountains 😍😍😍
Ok... this is my theory:
Phillipe is not just one man. Phillipe is several men. We only hear the name “Phillipe” and we only see the same face, as does the main character. “Green Eyed” the main character is envious jealous of all those men Towards the end consumed with jealousy he starts to fantasise about killing “Phillipe... therefore a distortion of reality & imagination. - we are watching the scenes through someone elses Green Eyes...

So what did we learn from this? Im list on this one
That guy hots the bag like a new born chimp😅😂😂
Well that's 15 minutes I'll never get back.
There is definitely a full length film here, good lord. The possibilities.....
Very well done Omelete, very impressive.
Love the 80's synthwave soundtrack too. Classic analog
So many people think this RUclips channel makes these films.
@@b1k2q34 I know they don’t, they simply promote them. Thanking the channel is sometimes a bit easier 😬
I used to have one of those phones..... Dang that was a long time ago....
Yuppie stands for young urban professional
I guess the way for an ambitious yuppie to be successful is to be ghoul oriented.
What that ghoul is doing around all those smoothskins is beyond me
But they had SUSHI.
I swear some Ghouls just can't handle competition!
i had been looking for this one again, but i am certain it was removed for a while.
In summary. Careful which cigar you smoke.
Oh. A literal ghoul
He finally saw himself in the mirror and what he saw was truly grotesque.
He tries to destroy it in the end but is it too late?
I definitely like the setting.
Me and my homie Philipe goin' on a vacation from the underworld.
Ghouls just wanna have fun!
This is my interpretation of it. What if that strange looking dude is someone better than him and he got jealous. When he thought he killed that dude in the end, somehow that dude came back. What if the end signifies that there will always be someone better than you (i guess socially, intellectually, etc) even when you try to get rid of that someone.
sorry but no
this is not what the film meant to say
however i am too lazy to explain so yeah good job
King Tut ?? Why not seems likely
he got a taste of his own poison and he hated it thats all
King Tut isn't that what I meant lol?
But he burned his own car. There wasn’t another one there....
So there is 1 horcrux left of Voldemort ?
4:00 in...i love beautiful cinema. this is EXTRODINARY! no, this is more than special. it's ULTRA!
i didn't realize the 80s yuppie culture was world wide
Looool it's a time period in the realm of human life lol wtf
We cannot escape who we are. Unfortunately, we might not like who we are. Great show! The 80's are perfectly captured. (Yuck!) Another Omeleto hit. Thanks to everyone involved in the making if this film.
once we accept who we are, then we begin to like.

THE GHOUL IS HIS DISGUSTING SIDE, I KILLED MY GHOUL IN '99.
Says a lot about his inner circle and how much they seemed to favor Felipe.
howd u kill it exactly
The ending was pretty funny
We see who we are. We see in others what we hate in ourselves.
nah
