Speaking of things that make you feel old, does anyone remember the Donald Trump slasher film? No? Well, in that case I'm very sorry: th-cam.com/video/OdbVPbbUDw4/w-d-xo.html
The author of the book deliberately didn't answer the mystery, or have anyone escape, he felt that it would distract from the message of accepting death.... Then M. Night came along and completely missed the mark.
Didn't the author explicitly said "any explanation I thought about sounded stupid"?? And then M. Night pretty much proved that. As horrific as it is, the point was: death comes for us all,enjoy the time you have as if it was the last day. But yeah I guess someone in production wanted to give it a happy note??
Most things are scarier when not explained. Fear of the unkown and all that. The Happening would have been scary if we didn't know it was just the plants.
That just sounds like a manga plot. I have read numerous "old becomes young" stories. Be warned though, plots like this are just asking for someone to fuck an egg.
I’m Irish and I take offence to this, Irish mythology has plenty of stories about things that make you old, like the falling off a horse that makes you old or the being swan and hearing church bells that make you old
in our country it was translated as "time" and i thought it was kinda the same in other countries. when i saw the poster on the thumbnail i was full of confusion, like, is this real?
@@GabyGeorge1996 I probably wouldn't've gone for the one-word title, I can't think of any. Maybe something like, "Bury My Bones In The Sand", or "Bury Me In The Sand", or even just "Bury Me", "Bury My Bones", some variations on the title. Cause of the comic, Sandcastles, it just felt right to having something about burying in there somewhere
It is important to note that the comic on which this is based does not include the pharmaceutical company angle at all. They do not have the resort opening (the boring part, as deemed in this video), and does not have the code breaking about the coral. The comic ends on the (now adult) kids building the sand castle and accepting their fate. Everything you guys had a problem with in this film was an M Knight original idea.
For anyone who didn't get the sand castle joke or bit the movie is based off of a French comic called sandcastle which follows the same basic concept of the story except for the pharmaceutical subplot and is basically just written as a fable or a fairytale
I'm not at all surprised that he would put a paranoid schizophrenic person in the movie purely to use them as another source of danger for the other characters to deal with. Is it really an M. Night Shyamalan movie if it isn't at least a little bit ableist? Seriously, I'm so sick of movies that use characters with stigmatized mental illnesses as props or monsters instead of treating them like any other human character.
The cherry on top is the comment at the end at how the mentally ill should be segregated from the other subjects. You know, like how IRL we were indiscrimnately rounded up into asylums, and studied by doctors like zoo animals? How backwards and ignorant of recent history can you be? No death in this film can be as gross as how mental illness is depicted.
To be fair, the situation was a heavily accelerated worsening of the condition without any medication or treatment. While I agree I dislike the display of mental health, I think that in this case, there is a grain of reasonable display in its severity and danger, which you could read as saying medicine can be life changing and should not be disregarded.
Okay, 'Old' is a stupid title, but personally I can't stop laughing about the fact that Jordan Peele titled his next movie 'Nope'. It makes it sound like he didn't even want to bother naming it lmao
Maybe we're heading into an era where films names end up the same way places were named by explorers, so look out for next year's "What," "No, I Didn't Hear What You Said" and "It Sounded Like He Said 'Car Fight' Or Something."
The best part about the movie being named Old is that it was adapted from a comic book named “Sandcastle.” Shyamalan easily could have just kept the name but he had to go and name it “Old”
OLD as a concept is terrifying, especially when it comes to memory horror as I call it. Dementia is hell, but imagine all the stages of dementia only a few hours, that rapid deterioration to the point when, on the beach, you wouldn't be able to comprehend or express it and then you're gone. And only then, maybe less than half an hour after that, will you die. Dementia is death before total organ failure and I could not and will never wish that on someone else. Just... The thought that everything advances so quickly terrifies me, and it's worse when you're on that beach. Everything never gets the chance to live because you're gone before you can realize.
I must admit, this actually sounds more interesting than I had imagined when seeing the trailer. It also sounds deeply disturbing and I wouldn't watch it without subjecting others to the same horror.
I can hear Jeremy Scott now… “If they’re aging rapidly then their hair and nails should be growing rapidly too. And yea, they hand wave it away later, but it’s still a sin *Ding*” (After the line explaining it away) “What!? *Ding*”
What would happen if Benjamin Button went to the beach that makes you old? Would he become younger, older, or would he just be chilling on a beach that supposedly makes you old?
Shyamalan's movies started out great and have just continuousely gotten worse. some people will tell you Split was good but they don't realize DID isn't a gimmick he made up but a real disability that he horrifically misrepresented.
I've watched maybe half of his films idk his whole catalog, the Sixth Sense was the only I would call good. Signs was preachy, the Village was meh, the Happening was a meme. AtLA was a crime. Split was okay but a little problematic. Glass was eh. Maybe Unbreakable is the other good movie? Idk M.Night has had far more misses than hits for me.
@cat Little compared to an endorsement of genocide? Or...? Size is so relative here. Idk, I feel like it wasn't saying all people with this illness will eventually kill and eat you, it was just the pop understanding of it applied very negatively to one person, which sucks but it's not quite... large problematic?

I don't understand why the resort couldn't just ask for volunteers in the testing. Like a lot of folks with uncurable diseases might agree to spend a day on the beach if their test gives others life-saving treatment. It also doesn't explain why the resort would pick families with children. They're not part of the testing. And no scientists would have someone with mental illness that could endanger others on the beach, because it would screw up the other tests - as it did. It's just muddy and reveals Shyamalan's ignorance on the subject.
I first heard the trailer in Spanish on the radio and went to search for the original English version - it took me a while because the translated title in Spanish is 'Tiempo' (Time)...why is the translation better than the original title?
'Old' is like 'Big' if Weyland Yutani of 'Aliens' owned the remote from 'Click', and used it for financial gain like in 'Inception' to set up a beach with a secret like in 'Jaws', and, I dunno, maybe it takes place in 'Brazil'... 'Jumanji'.
Plesiosaurs are saltwater species/genera, but Europe had a fun tendency to get flooded during them ancient times, so uh. Take that as you wish. Other fun relevant factoids: 1. There are freshwater relatives of Plesiosaurs 2. Loch Ness is not old enough to ever have had any of those 3. The first few Nessie sightings don't resemble Plesiosaurs whatsoever 4. Nessie is specifically an outdated Plesiosaur; Plesiosaurs hunt bottom up from the sea floor, and are not built for prowling the surface with their heads up high. 5. Plesiosaurus in particular is one of the very most ancient Plesiosaurs, and also considerably smaller than Nessie seems to be usually depicted as 6. Loch Ness houses both large eel and other huge fish such as catfish, make of that what you wish
@@DuskLegend Yeah, my time travel journeys also led to me figuring out that the sky is periodically blue, and grass usually comes in different shades of green and yellow. Jokes aside tho, not really. These are very basic factoids about Plesiosaurs and Nessie/Loch Ness respectively. Lol.
Looking the comic up it turns out in 2017 that there was a movie already called Sandcastle. Perhaps they didn't want to have their movie have the same title?

setting is in a regular escape room. there's a room full of quirky people and each one solves puzzle to move forward. but catch is if one person says "the" when talking, they die horrifically by gamemaster. lol i can expand if i care
@@aegis_knight Tbh even better if the trailer doesn't even hint at that gimmick, so people speculating on what the title means, like does it stand for something... but no. It literally is just the word "the".
Tbh what i imagine is like a combination of scp 3125 and scp 4000, like a concept or thing that the knowledge of, even down to its name, would be harmful to human life (hence “THE”, as any noun added after regarding it would prompt harm to those that hear it)
I feel this entire video can be summarized by that one clip of Mr. Krabs going "No! I ain't old!". Also not gonna lie the concept of the movie reminds me of a Junji Ito plot and I was super into it.
My partner and I watched The Beach That Makes You Old (tm) with no context or spoilers in theaters and it was absolutely hilarious. I did genuinely get freaked out by the lady in the cave (if you know you know) and we spent the next 3 hours just yelling about better uses for a beach that ages anything not wrapped in tin foil
Watching this just makes you think “M Night Shalayman is Neil Breen with a budget”. Like literally the ending is just one step from Neil Breen talking to the evil bankers and saying “Isn’t that immoral?!”
I've just stumbled upon this channel and as Meg talked I couldn't quite pick her accent, but as soon as she said "skin cells in trauma" and "slip, slop, slap" I did the Leonardo DiCaprio point and yelled "Australian!"
The title of this movie is ridiculous. They could've easily called it Shifting Sands or Hourglass's End or even Life's A Beach, but they just called it Old.
I havent quite seen the movie yet, but from what ive heard about the movie the “grateful dead” arc is way better. Like, legitimately that was my favorite fight in part 5
Didn't the original comic deal with racism against a Middle Eastern character? I'm a bit bothered that they kept the racism subplot (which I wouldn't mind removing because it didn't seem to go anywhere) but changed the race of the character on the receiving end.
So I usually work on art while watching your videos, and I look up halfway through and see your icons are now old and just the pure idea that I had been missing this tiny gag the whole time was so funny lol; kudos to you guys on that
So... Am I the only one who thinks that "the beach that makes you young" could actually be a pretty good idea for a story? no? just me? I'll just go sit in the Shayamalan table then...
Honestly it would because all the rich and powerful would horde it to live forever in their riches. The entire world would turn into an extra hellhole over the fact that you got a beach that basically grants immortality and therefore no weaknesses. You can basically do everything forever while everyone else is wasting away while Elon Musk Jeff Bezos and other rich corrupt people just go on living forever as immortal money deities.
It sure seems like corporations and governments don’t follow their own laws and guidelines since they’ve done a load of horrible experiments without consent or allowing their victims an out. There are multiple examples of this happening in the US, almost always done by the government to their own citizens. From 1942-1972 In Tuskegee they misinformed hundreds of poor black men diagnosed with syphilis to study the effects on untreated black males under the guise of providing free medical care for their “bad blood,” during 1950 the U.S. Navy participated in a biological warfare experiment in which Serratia marcescens and Bacillus globigii bacteria were sprayed over the San Francisco Bay Area in California in order to determine how vulnerable a city like San Francisco may be to a bioweapon attack. There’s literally an entire wikipedia page dedicated to Unethical human experimentation in the United States.
i love listening to your videos while i draw, and so i wasn't looking for a while then i look up and see images slowly starting to fade in over their personas my only thought was a dreadful one indeed- "old"
Interesting thing I got to know from Ryan Holliger- this movie is inspired by basically unknown french comic titled Sandcastle. It's far more darker, far more hopeless, several times more insensitive and ends up with everyone dead and no answers to how and why

'Old' is like 'Big' if Weyland Yutani of 'Aliens' owned the remote from 'Click', and used it for financial gain like in 'Inception' to set up a beach with a secret like in 'Jaws', and, I dunno, maybe it takes place in 'Brazil'... 'Jumanji'.
nice

Plesiosaurs are saltwater species/genera, but Europe had a fun tendency to get flooded during them ancient times, so uh. Take that as you wish. Other fun relevant factoids:
1. There are freshwater relatives of Plesiosaurs
2. Loch Ness is not old enough to ever have had any of those
3. The first few Nessie sightings don't resemble Plesiosaurs whatsoever
4. Nessie is specifically an outdated Plesiosaur; Plesiosaurs hunt bottom up from the sea floor, and are not built for prowling the surface with their heads up high.
5. Plesiosaurus in particular is one of the very most ancient Plesiosaurs, and also considerably smaller than Nessie seems to be usually depicted as
6. Loch Ness houses both large eel and other huge fish such as catfish, make of that what you wish
So I’m assuming you have some kind of time machine based on all these assumptions you’re making
@@DuskLegend Yeah, my time travel journeys also led to me figuring out that the sky is periodically blue, and grass usually comes in different shades of green and yellow.
Jokes aside tho, not really. These are very basic factoids about Plesiosaurs and Nessie/Loch Ness respectively. Lol.
There is
A beach
In New Orleans.
They call it
"The Beach that makes you old"
And it's been
The ruin
For many a poor boy
And God
I know
I'm one
Take a shot every time the say “the beach that makes you old”
*grins, being a secret serial killer*
I work at a movie theater and I remember I watched this entire movie through the kitchen window, and oh boy was it something.
Looking the comic up it turns out in 2017 that there was a movie already called Sandcastle. Perhaps they didn't want to have their movie have the same title?
You're old (you're old)
Groaning like a geezer
Feel yourself a-cracklin'
Like an old has-been
Look at yourself, old man
You've got multiple chins
'Cause you're old...
What’s the source?
@@lordfelidae4505 A song from the Spongebob Squarepants episode Mid-Life Crustacean.
@@Bullet731108 holy shit dude that was fast! 4 minute response time on a 4 month old video, impressive!
I like how the icons gradually age with the video as well! Truely emulates the beach that make you older
I want a movie title that's just the word "THE"
Someone reply what the plot to a movie called "THE" would be
setting is in a regular escape room. there's a room full of quirky people and each one solves puzzle to move forward. but catch is if one person says "the" when talking, they die horrifically by gamemaster. lol i can expand if i care
@@aegis_knight good one 👏
@@aegis_knight Tbh even better if the trailer doesn't even hint at that gimmick, so people speculating on what the title means, like does it stand for something... but no. It literally is just the word "the".
Tbh what i imagine is like a combination of scp 3125 and scp 4000, like a concept or thing that the knowledge of, even down to its name, would be harmful to human life (hence “THE”, as any noun added after regarding it would prompt harm to those that hear it)
@@Abobziel wow, that actually sounds pretty creative and interesting, here have a cookie 🍪
I feel this entire video can be summarized by that one clip of Mr. Krabs going "No! I ain't old!".
Also not gonna lie the concept of the movie reminds me of a Junji Ito plot and I was super into it.
Ito would definitely have the hair and nails grow though and go through all the body horror he could cram into those pages
omg, i was just rewatching all of your monster girl safari videos, so i guess now i have some more content to multitask to
This video is great to grow old to.
same omg fuck why
@@WeRNotAlive ON THE BEACH THAT MAKES YOU OLD!
My partner and I watched The Beach That Makes You Old (tm) with no context or spoilers in theaters and it was absolutely hilarious. I did genuinely get freaked out by the lady in the cave (if you know you know) and we spent the next 3 hours just yelling about better uses for a beach that ages anything not wrapped in tin foil
Watching this just makes you think “M Night Shalayman is Neil Breen with a budget”.
Like literally the ending is just one step from Neil Breen talking to the evil bankers and saying “Isn’t that immoral?!”
I've just stumbled upon this channel and as Meg talked I couldn't quite pick her accent, but as soon as she said "skin cells in trauma" and "slip, slop, slap" I did the Leonardo DiCaprio point and yelled "Australian!"
God bless you for getting my Australian references.
I started impulsively singing in the middle of watching this video. I have no joke to make I just thought I'd say that.
Thank you, chicken strip. What did you sing about?
@@table2.0 I don't know honestly. I was just singing words.
@@pirsickle that’s a vibe. You’re a good person, Chicken Strip.
@@table2.0 Why thank you, kind Table.
@@pirsickle any time, Chicken Strip. Any time.
This has become my favorite channel over quarantine. Thanks for keeping me sane.
It's kept us (somewhat) sane, too!
@@henrygalley2831 what? Stop that, then. Sanity is overrated. You’re in the perfect job to be mildly nuts.
The title of this movie is ridiculous. They could've easily called it Shifting Sands or Hourglass's End or even Life's A Beach, but they just called it Old.
We Are Not Alive... We Are OLD
I love the art of their avatars. it's the review that makes you old
Man, if I was on the beach that makes you old I sure would be old.
Huh, this live-action spin-off of the “Grateful Dead arc” took alota creative liberties.
Shyamalan has ruined another anime, smh
I havent quite seen the movie yet, but from what ive heard about the movie the “grateful dead” arc is way better. Like, legitimately that was my favorite fight in part 5
Was watching this at lunch, and almost choked every time you said "the beach that makes you old"
I love the detail of the TH-camrs avatars slowly getting older as the video goes on 🧓
Wait, nobody can starve or dehydrate but the baby instantly dies of neglect. Also how did they get through the tunnel at all though.
35:05 This character literally died the same way as the guy from Futurama who had boneitis
Yep I had the same thought.
It's Britney, Beach
I think it's cool you guys got older as the movie progressed, truly the Old (2021) experience
This took so many years off my life that I will die before I have the chance to get old
i feel like this is the only way to experience Old (2021)
I like how this movie is so horrific, but the title is so stupid it saps any and all terror from it
I saw the trailer for this film and I am so glad that you made this video cause...oh lordy is this movie just funny
Didn't the original comic deal with racism against a Middle Eastern character? I'm a bit bothered that they kept the racism subplot (which I wouldn't mind removing because it didn't seem to go anywhere) but changed the race of the character on the receiving end.
So I usually work on art while watching your videos, and I look up halfway through and see your icons are now old and just the pure idea that I had been missing this tiny gag the whole time was so funny lol; kudos to you guys on that
“As you know I conducted a raid on the beach that makes you old” admiral Zhoa probably
I'm only three minutes in but I'm living for the pure chaotic energy I'm already getting.
So...
Am I the only one who thinks that "the beach that makes you young" could actually be a pretty good idea for a story?
no? just me? I'll just go sit in the Shayamalan table then...
Honestly it would because all the rich and powerful would horde it to live forever in their riches. The entire world would turn into an extra hellhole over the fact that you got a beach that basically grants immortality and therefore no weaknesses. You can basically do everything forever while everyone else is wasting away while Elon Musk Jeff Bezos and other rich corrupt people just go on living forever as immortal money deities.
Meg, your laugh is super contagious, you made giggle a LOT in this video just by laughing
Honestly, the bit with the PFP's is great and subtle. Good Job!
There are guidelines regarding human testing, namely, that your subjects give their full consent and that they can quit anytime during the test.
Wow Shyamalan got things even More detached from reality than I previously thought!
It sure seems like corporations and governments don’t follow their own laws and guidelines since they’ve done a load of horrible experiments without consent or allowing their victims an out. There are multiple examples of this happening in the US, almost always done by the government to their own citizens.
From 1942-1972 In Tuskegee they misinformed hundreds of poor black men diagnosed with syphilis to study the effects on untreated black males under the guise of providing free medical care for their “bad blood,” during 1950 the U.S. Navy participated in a biological warfare experiment in which Serratia marcescens and Bacillus globigii bacteria were sprayed over the San Francisco Bay Area in California in order to determine how vulnerable a city like San Francisco may be to a bioweapon attack.
There’s literally an entire wikipedia page dedicated to Unethical human experimentation in the United States.
The slight change in the avatars are fucking *chefs kiss*
It's funny that in my country, they didn't even translate the title. It's just "Old" - the english world.
i love listening to your videos while i draw, and so i wasn't looking for a while
then i look up and see images slowly starting to fade in over their personas
my only thought was a dreadful one indeed- "old"
IT HAPPENED AGAIN
Interesting thing I got to know from Ryan Holliger- this movie is inspired by basically unknown french comic titled Sandcastle.
It's far more darker, far more hopeless, several times more insensitive and ends up with everyone dead and no answers to how and why
Well if everyone is dead nobody is left to ask why
I feel like this is one of those premises that would work so much better if you just made no attempt to explain why it's happening
Maybe the real friends was the beach that made us old on the way.
I don't know, but I've been told. There's a beach that makes you old!
SPEEDRUN LIFE BEACH.
when i realized they're getting older the further into the video you are i started laughing so hard lol
I was listening as i was doing art, and some 20 minutes later i look over and theyre old.
