    In a related piece of irony: this film had a life sentence to be played every Saturday afternoon on what used to be called cable television.

    I studied this film in my final year of high school. It started a great love of films for me and to this day, Shawshank is one of my all time favourites :)

    "God abandoned Earth in 1991" .... I was born in 1991. Coincidence?! o_0
    Also, I just noticed that Andy hides his hammer in the book of Exodus. Not only a book about slaves being freed, the word Exodus comes from the Latin word meaning "to expel, exit, or escape."

      NinjaInConverse lots of people were born in 1991 so probably not.

      Exodus is from the Greek - not the Latin. Piece of advice: if you do want to make definitive statements about 'facts' they can be googled in advance - eg: 'exodus etymology'. That way you can prevent yourself from propagating misinformation - always an admirable thing to do.

    Just discovered your channel thanks to the crossover with Cracked. Loving what you're doing. I haven't gone through your entire catalog yet so apologies if any of my suggestions have already been done.
    * The Fifth Element
    * Galaxy Quest
    * Star Trek (a variety)
    * Tolkein/Jackson collection
    * Gattaca
    * Empire Records
    * X-Men (pick one??)
    * Edward Scissorhands
    * Beetlejuice
    * The Shadow
    * Masters of the Universe
    * Interstellar
    There are just so many that deserve this treatment!
    * Anything by Rob Schneider, viewed by aliens as serious cinema and highly influential to our culture
    * Same for Adam Sandler
    * Ernest P Whorl as well? Probably best to not overdo this approach. And yet...
    * Peewee's Big Adventure (the movie, not his legal adventures)
    * Ocean's Eleven
    * The Matrix trilogy (or a take in which the sequels never happened?? I would love to see how you decide to handle it.)
    * "Kung fu" stuff. Jackie Chan, Jet Li (Fearless? Unleashed?), Bruce Lee, The Best of the Best, Karate Kid, etc.
    * The Sixth Sense
    * Signs
    * Mars Attacks
    So many more but I don't want to further dilute this list. Looking forward to more!

      +Jon Miller This channel is highly underrated. I believe such brilliant content requires a lot of effort, and I doubt they have a machine that automatically produces it. So I don't think it's fair to list the names of 20 or more of our own favourite content, and then ask of them to analyse it. I'd Pick one or two, Max. But only after I do a bit of research on their channel.

At present I have just watched back to back your videos of Shrek, Titanic, Forrest Gump, Brokeback Mountain, and The Shining as well as obviously this one, and so far I am impressed and amused. Thanks for them, looking forward to the rest of the videos, regardless of whether I have watched the movie they are featuring as appears to be the case with several of them.

    @youthnation1 8 ปีที่แล้ว +13

    Love the channel! Especially Earthling Cinema! But you've missed a rather significant allusion in this one. You've said nothing about Andy being the figure of Christ himself. th-cam.com/video/-2hWKvq35RM/w-d-xo.html Andy’s unexpected escape is a clear allusion to the death and resurrection of Jesus. “Oh my holy God.” Just as Red and others go looking for Andy’s dead body, the disciples went looking for Christ’s. Just as Red and the guards found the cell empty and Andy alive so too did Jesus’ followers. The entire film is in fact meaningful in light of the gospel. Andy’s resurrection redeems Red, “the only guilty man in Shawshank.” In a clear reversal of its prison film genre (think Cool Hand Luke and Escape from Alcatraz), the Shawshank Redemption depicts prisoners dreading NOT imprisonment, BUT freedom. And they dread it as they would death itself. Brooks, for instance, tries to kill Haywood when he finds he’s been paroled and later kills himself because of it. The prisoners of Shawshank are “Institutionalized.” Freedom for them means only to be empty and alone. Shawshank represents the life we know and outside, death, the world we've yet to encounter. But there is life outside, a point Andy, Shawshank’s only innocent man, wants his fellow prisoners to see. He offers them rare and extraordinary reminders of the outside world, like a beer on a hot roof, angelic music over the prison’s speakers, and a library, built by breaking down the walls of the prison. In the process, Andy suffers greatly for these acts. But it's Andy’s ultimate miraculous escape and life on the outside which means hope for Red. Because Andy lives Red will live also. He waits for Red, working the wood of a fishermen’s boat. All before an eternal sea. If that isn't an intentional allusion to Jesus, I don't know what is.

    Kindly pause scrolling and make space for the following information in your memory banks:
    1. When the prison warden found the Bible where Andy had hidden the rock hammer, it was in the book of Exodus. Exodus is a Greek word meaning "departure."
    2. Red describes Andy's dream as "shitty pipe dreams". During his escape to live that dream, Andy crawls through a pipe filled with raw sewage.
    3. If Andy had been incarcerated in just one cell to the left he would have had nowhere to tunnel to except the next cell, and thus would have had no amazing story to tell.
    4. The three times Red meets the parole board he is told "Sit", "Sit down", and lastly "Please sit down".
    5. Although it is never directly stated in the film, Brooks is in prison for allegedly murdering his wife and daughter after a losing streak at poker.
    6. Despite being widely considered as one of the greatest movies of all time, it didn't receive a single Oscar win, though it was nominated for seven, including Best Picture.
    7. The last word spoken in the movie is "hope", a major theme of the film.

    Already subscribed to Wisecrack, but just discovered this pearl! Great format!
    I have an alternative interpretation to the whole movie which makes the ending turn out as a fictious representation - a dream of an optimistic possibility. Remember the night Red thought that Andy might have killed himself? Well, as he had lately been that gloomy because of all the trouble that happened to him lately, there is good reasons to believe the suicide really happened. A lot of things in the finale seem unrealistic to me: from the escape itself, to the fact that Red literally f**** off the giury, but they released him; and he anyway manages to find Andy in that paradisiac island in the middle of.. whaaat? Cmon. The happy ending is what the audience wants to see, as well as the epic revenge to the evil prison and their characters. Unfortunately, in reality that would never happen!

    I know this series is obviously sarcastic, but this video was actually crazy deep and I learned alot about the movie.

    another great episode! I never saw much in this movie; didn't get the hype. I do like the 'shaping rocks and freedom' motif. Didn't Andy make wood sculptures in this movie too? Or was that another film?
    Also, Dufresne means 'ash' as in 'ash tree' in French, the leaves of which are spear-shaped. I think there's some significance in there, but I just can't grasp it yet.

    Garyx! If you can find it, please review the movie The Sound of Music. I remembered that beloved earthling classic all those cycles ago.

      The bible has many interpretable meanings and was the first printed book on Earth. It has been worshipped by millions for hundreds of years. It is a tool that can be used for good (charity, forgiveness, change) or evil ( aka Hitler and Genocide of other religions)

    Hey, if you guys ever feel in the mood to analyze an animated film, I'd highly recommend the anime film "Time of Eve." It's about the relationship humans maintain with robots once the two start becoming indistinguishable from each other.
