would love to see those guy react to Great Pretender anime .
@@hellfish2309 oh man i hated alita battle angel. it was so bad.
@@becauseofobi-wan3543 I said “Good DAY!”
Edge of tomorrow is one of the better Hollywood adaptations of a manga/book
Sure they changed a few things but it's still leagues better than I hoped
How about speed racer ?
@@laboon344 haven't read the manga so can't judge. But did enjoy the movie especially the artistic choices of camera/cgi work in it
@@chinpokamuy7568 same I've been on 3 or 4 of speed racers movie clips on TH-cam and from the comments people really like/love it
And it´s still a mediocre adaptation at best. Ofc there´s limits to how much you can develop a character in a movie vs a long running media like a manga or a tvshow, but the overall plot gets super muddy and full of plot holes and other stuff that makes no sense.
Love the movie, have never seen the manga but the book was extremely good too. It was even able to get the emotions going near the end of the book.
Edge of Tomorrow is such an underrated movie
Agreed
Such a powerful movie and definitely not boring with a script talking a bout traveling in time and seeing almost the same scenes
yeah it was from a not so overused IP, had a big star, some great effects, good story, so weird that it didn't pop off. Hard for smaller movies to peek through
Facts
The manga does better
The most underrated Sci-fi movie of the past decade.
@Author B.L. Alley John Carter was a cool concept seriously, i liked the movie.
Arrival is utterly fantastic.
@Author B.L. Alley District 9 also subverts expectations. Aliens coming to earth not being all knowing gods etc.
*”The past decade” damn times flies .*
Not underrated, what are you talking about?
this movie is basically "level 1 noob" becoming a "level 1000 pro"
Basically just Quicksaving then dying lol, Elder Scrolls Style
When you replay your favorite game for the thousandth time and remember all spawns and cutscenes
this is how mafia works
Why can't people just use the word beginner? Ditch noob pop culture! it's the stupidest looking word.
Yes but saying "lmao you beginner" has less impact tbh
I personally LOVE the original manga name: ALL YOU NEED IS KILL
It’s badass af
@Kids Are Annoying Ratio'd
@Form of Therapy yooo whats up PD!
The original version is a light novel...
The manga is also an adaptation.
Its a book?
Wassup PD
Emily Blunt was such a badass in this film
she is perfect for captain marvel
Tom Cruise single-handedly started the Multiverse of Madness.
XDDD
That timeline is begging for it
No.. that would be Phil Conners.
Oh fuck no. The manga did. And then there is Marvel.
The multiverse was actually created by Robert Heinlein in the book called The number of the beast
The, "Mimic," thing is because the aliens were actually alien weapons sent from another planet. They were a form of bio-weapon that would study the native life of the target planet, then mimic useful parts of the local biology in order to operate effectively as weapons in a hostile environment. The basic form that the mimics took on Earth was based off of starfish, combined with other things that the aliens found useful. The movie talks about it, (in a passing way that isn't very helpful,) but the aliens landed a while ago, and the war has been going on for a while. They are only now suddenly breaking out of containment zones and sweeping all resistance away. This is because it's taken them time to perfect the ideal physical forms for use in defeating the dominant Earth species, humanity.
now I wanna read that manga
@@nickmilo932 alright what exactly is a Manga? Is just a singular book or a series of them? Is Manga just a genre?
@@menwithven8114 manga is a comic but from japan. Thats the oversimplification for it. Chinese call theirs differently, Korean call it differently. The point is all of it are comic. Different way to call it so its easier to tell the difference. The only major difference in the content is the art style. Comic have its own art style. Manga have a separate categories of art style by it self. Chinese have their own and so on.
@@felixcykayou8930 thank you that makes much more sense!
@@menwithven8114 Also you read manga from right to left instead of left to right like we do
I wonder if, to Tom Cruise, this is his perfect movie. After all, if you are a fan then you will love this film. If, however, you utterly hate Tom Cruise, you will love this film because you get to watch him die a thousand ways.
Hahahaha this is the best analysis of this movie I've seen yet.
That is how I sold it to most people I watched it with.
This is how I'm gonna pitch watching this movie with my mom, she hates Tom xD
What if u are neutral about Tom Cruise or u like some of his acting performances but not all of them
I enjoyed this movie. I especially liked the fact that he couldn't save Emily Blunt's character instead of the cliché romance ending.
What? Is there an alt ending?
It had a cliche romance ending. But in a good way.
He is looking forward to all the stages of building a relationship with a woman he already knows and loves.
What I meant was that he couldn't save the "her" that knew and remembered him. She's alive but she doesn't know him.
@Ricardo Alonso Rojas - Yes, but in her eyes they have never met.
@@purplemoss3313 In the manga, both the main characters have the power, and after killing all the "antenna mimics (the alphas in this movie) They both are forced to fight to the death because they're both also parts of the omega and he kills her for the greater good.
I’ll never forget when I was getting off of opiates in rehab back in 2016 and the only two dvds we had to watch were this and gone girl sooo I saw this movie pretty much every night for 3 months straight lmao still love it tho and for anyone curious I stayed clean and have a daughter today!!!!
Hell yeah! Mate. Big W
Gone Girl is really good though
Proud of you bro
Keep up the good work and always cherish your life and your family, proud and a honor to know that you kicked the habit
2 pretty fantastic movies. Gone Girl is better tho imo.
RIP Bill Paxton...once again give great supporting role acting !
When Cage died the first time and his blood mixed with the Alpha, he stole the Mimics' ability to reset the day. When Cage died the last time and his blood mixed with the Omega's, he not only reset time, but stole the Omega's power altogether which made all the Mimics weak and easy to kill.
this movie is one of many reason why people wanted emily blunt to be sue storm in F4
She would be a pretty cool zero suit samus too
I want her as Sue and Brandon Routh as Reed
also shows she would of made a pretty decent Black Widow if she hadn't turned down the role.
@@Ugnutz SHE DID WHAT?!?!
They also wanted her as Captain Marvel ... and they did talk to her about it ... but I do believe she turned them down, but was very honored to have been wanted for the role. I do believe she will end up doing one of the Marvel Universe films eventually.
I'm still baffled by how this movie exists! someone managed to convince a big holywood studio to make a high budget movie based on a pretty unknown light novel! bruh what? how?
It was probably pitched as an action groundhog day, like Happy Deathday is like a comedy horror groundhog day.
Tom Cruise is why this movie was made. He is the most bankable movie star in history.
@@MrCAlbert18 Say that to the last Mummy movie.
its that tom cruise magic , didn he do oblivion right after this ? 2 manga movies in a row like G
@@Zitolos actually i think oblivion was before.
Fun fact: A lot of those suits were real, they were strapped on wires to help them stand up and run.
They weighed around 85lbs & were designed on actual DARPA designs.
The original manga for this actually has a far more somber story if anyone wants to take a look. It's called All You Need is Kill and it's honestly pretty great for how short it is.
The original version is a light novel.
The manga is also an adaptation.
But yes, I'm agree they're great.
I like the LN and manga only gripe is that the monsters there look like sea urchins XD
@@Haru-sx9sk Actually was not aware it was an LN first. Thanks for the info, I'll be sure to check it out!
I was surprised to find this movie to be anime adaptation without adapting the anime, but the manga first.
This movie is so underrated
yes very much
@Juan eme thank you moron for your input but there is no movie called avenger.Try high school.
@@piotrswat169 imagine not knowing Avengers,do you lived in stone or what
@Juan eme ?High school then post
@@Desusk67 you too high school then post
I forget where I heard it but someone calculated that Tom Cruises character lived 40 years worth of that day before he figured out how to win the war.
They lied to you.
That sounds like bs. He would have to do 14k resets, and there is no mention of that kind of number.
Tbh, it's my favorite time loop movie. Even more so than Groundhogs Day
The book is called "All you need is kill" i guess. Remember reading it along time ago and then remember it because of the movie.
The film is great action sci-fi popcorn flick... the book is more intricate sci-fi and feels like, unlike the film, just a slice of a bigger war story. I guess a US film audience wouldn't accept a film where they didn't end the war. The reset trigger was different as well, he didn't have to die in the book.
Most badass name for a manga ever
@@kumanight light novel
@@hashshashiin.forsī it’s both
@@k.Juno.O which one came first?
Never in a million loops did I expect this reaction.
..Not complaining though.
It’s amazing how one of the best video game movies ever made isn’t even based on an actual video game, but has all the mechanics and plot points of one.
I mean for God’s sake Emily Blunt has Cloud Strife’s freakin Buster Sword! 🗡🗡
Her sword is actually part of a helicoptor rotor blade
I'm sorry, wut? video game movie?
It's a light-novel/manga adaption. A videogame might still be on the way though.
literally one of the best sci-fi movies ever made IMO, it blew my mind the first time I saw it
I want more high budget hollywood, properly adapted manga movies
You and us all.
I heard that AKIRA in live-action has been in development for years and a couple heavy hitters are gonna make it happen.
Check out the Rurouni Kenshin movies. Gareth Evans, who directed the Raid films is a big fan of the the action in the Rurouni Kenshin movies.
@@zuriyel5368 shame the kenshin author's a " kiddiephile"
I have a special appreciation for the repeat aspect. You can tell he's skipped a couple of loops based on what he does and says. I love how the creators haven't treated its audience like idiots.
After the film's box-office failure in the U.S., (it still managed to turn a profit worldwide), its marketing strategy was changed slightly for its DVD release. In this case, on the front of the video box, the film's tagline was emphasized heavily, with the title "Edge of Tomorrow" in small text at the very bottom of the case. As a result of this packaging, it gives the illusion that the film's title is "Live Die Repeat." Warner Bros. maintained that the title of the film had not been changed and that "Live Die Repeat" was only a tagline, yet this appears in front of "Edge of Tomorrow" not just on the cover, but on the spine of the packaging and even on the discs. The rental company Red Box has the film listed under the letter "L" in its kiosks, and all online retailers have the digital streaming version titled "Live Die Repeat: Edge of Tomorrow."
Emily Blunt effectively gave us live-action Cmdr. Shepard... and I LOVE IT.
This movie is the closest thing we have to a video game. You die and keep coming back to the same checkpoint, over and over again lol
Day 1- Cage wakes up in the heli early morning around 7am. Tries to go AWOL gets knocked out
Day 1 p2 - wakes up handcuffed a few hours later. Around 10am.
Day2 - invasion happens, around 10am, cage dies and gets “infected” by an alpha, restarts 24 hours later to day 1 p2.
Later cage loses his ability and realizes where the omega is. Gets the crew and successfully kills the omega but gets infected again. This takes place on the early morning of day 2. Hours before the invasion. Say around 6am. So when he resets for the last time he jumps back 24 hours.. to when he was asleep in the heli. Makes perfect sense.
Not much of a fan of Tom but he is so good in this movie. It's one of the those movies that you can watch again and again. And completely underrated.
Reminds me of Master and Commander, The Far Side of the World. Some idiot tweeted Russell Crow about how boring it was. And now everyone is watching it and being blown away. I'd love to see your reaction to Master and Commander.
This movie made me forever a fan of Emily Blunt! She is fantastic in this!
I first saw her in The Devil Wears Prada. That movie annoys me so much but shes so great in it.
@@zammmerjammer yeah I hate that movie as well! It is just kind of bad messaging to put out to young women and people in general plus it just isn’t a great movie (though it gets treated like it is). Emily Blunt and Stanley Tucci totally steal the show which is saying something with Meryl Streep as your co-star. But I think she was just so irredeemable and unlikable and was rather predictable
to clarify why they don't just find another Alpha to have two people with the power...
all the Soldier Mimics are just base animal berserkers with no time abilities; but the Alpha's are all conscious of the reset, so they are constantly shifting pattern to compensate for what they see in the field. so it's a random shot trying to spot a 1-in-a-million thing regularly, but with the alpha's pattern changing too...it becomes a 1-in-a-million times a million-minus-two shot at finding it (the 2 being it finds you and you find it), it'd be an eternity of Mimic-Shiny-hunting Hell.
also why they're called mimics, they basically a horde with no intelligence right?
so for that 1st day of battle they were random, then when the Alpha's have recognized patterns they came in and started to command like telepathically to recreate the human battle strategy to gauge the humans response capability so they have a frame of reference for what to do next time; and from there use those tactics to get new responses
they sort of play this mimic strategy so they don't just get nuked, if your enemy faces an army of perfect fighters; they're gonna just go all out and respond in ultimates and decimate your forces but if you give your enemy similar challenges they feel they can respond and you can beat them at their game. Plus when they have all the battle strategy of the planets' dominant forces down, they can just one day "do a perfect run" and take the world over and go on using that gained experience for the next conquest. They're a perfect warring hive mind that accumulates all the strats of it's conquered foes to make the next war easier.
Amazing movie, found it last year and have already watched it 4 times. I love stuff related to time and this kind of movies are perfect for me.
Should check out “Russian Doll” on Netflix if you haven’t already, also plays with time
@@ctcheeserexplores7443 will do, thank you for the suggestion.
This movie is great but I probably loved it more because I knew absolutely NOTHING about the movie before seeing it. I had just bought a 3D TV, saw it had familiar names and it ended up being one of all time favorite scifi movies.
This movie is awesome and doesn't get as much recognition as it should
So glad you reacted to this. It's one of my top 5 favorite movies. The action was amazing, the groundhog day plotline was great, the story was cool, and mostly made sense, and the mimics have one of the coolest designs I've seen. I read an article where someone did the calculations on how long it would have taken him to hone his muscle memory and memorize everything from that day, and they came to the conclusion that he spent approximately 40 years in that day. Imagine the emotional toll of getting to know someone and watching them die almost every day for 40 years. That is crazy. Also by the end of that movie he is basically the most dangerous man on earth due to the sheer amount of combat experience he has packed into a young mans body. Such an underrated film.
I love how the main characters become insane killing machines in the exoskeletons, whereas everyone else struggles to even jog in them. Not fearing death helped them to push their limits, so they learned to utilize the exoskeletons' full potential.
Wonderfully underrated movie! Surpsingly fresh given its premis. If the group hasn't seen "Midnight Special", please consider reacting to it! Stars Michael Shannon, Joel Edgerton, Kirsten Dunst, Adam Driver and the late Sam Shepherd.
You guys should check out oblivion, another great Tom cruise movie
I love this movie.
This movie is fanfuckingtastic! Christopher McQuarrie has a script for the sequel they are just waiting for everyones schedules to line up
Kept seeing TBA for part 2.
I thought that was a joke.
I love watching people try to make sense of time travel, it doesn't make sense, it rarely ever does.
Yeah, you’re just in it for the ride, it’s useless watching it “logically”. Just enjoy the fun of the movie, this one especially is a great one.
23:20 in the Manga, they are called Mimics, cause they have the same shape and features as CLassic Fantasy RPG Mimics, shapeshifting monsters with gigantic mouths and Teeths.
They changed the design for the movie Mimics to be more Bio-mecanic and Beast like, but they kept the name since they are still pretty much shapeshifting creatures.
Imagine 20 years from the end of this movie a bigger invasion happens and he dies, and it resets him back to this point. Then he has to relive the same 20 years preparing the world over and over until it's enough to win.
Damn good movie. One of Tom Cruise’s best.
This is one of my favorite Sci-fi time shennanigans movies actually, remember loving this when I was younger
16:35 "He can't save everyone" "So he saves no one"... Damn that hit.
I remember when Cruise starred in Oblivion (2013) and announced that his next movie was a futuristic thriller based on an manga novel.
Edge of Tomorrow was at Comic-Con, months later with the filmmakers and primary cast.
The questions and description of the film sounded great.
But just seeing Cruise at Comic-Con for the first time was dope.
I saw EOT in IMAX, which sold a lot of tickets for IMAX.
Cruise as the reluctant hero was new and interesting.
14:34
This scene. When the score kicks in and they just tear through the aliens is absolutely chilling🔥🔥.
Seeing Tom Cruise getting killed over & over is marvelous entertainment.
Aaron has obviously never heard the term "make sure brain is engaged before opening mouth".
I watch this movie 5 times and never get boring.
Aha! Calvin-Cruise, now that's a deadly combination you don't want to miss.😉
why does he hate him??
The aliens are called Mimics because they mimic each day till they get it right.
The only time Hollywood made a decent Japanese adaptation
Star wars? Based off a classic Samurai story.
Star Wars is original though. It has elements that were inspired from old samurai movies.
Ghost in the shell?
@@nicosanchez8261 Meh on that one.
The Ring
Doug Liman film rankings (best to worst)
1. Edge of Tomorrow
2. The Bourne Identity/American Made
3. Mr & Mrs Smith
4. Chaos Walking
5. Jumper
I love how they comment on the Y racks on the power armor, a concept that goes all the way back to Starship Troopers. Not just the power armor, even the Y racks.
Watching their videos on TH-cam I always thought Aaron was a smartass. Now, that I’ve subscribed to the Patreon I know Aaron IS a smartass!!
Absolutely love this movie!! so underrated
This movie has the coolest looking and scariest aliens I've ever seen in a movie. Gotta respect that.
So close. "Standing on the edge of tomorrow" are lyrics from the theme to Saved By The Bell: College Years. Also thanks so very much for now getting that song stuck in my head.
The movie is based off of the Japanese manga titled All You Need Is Kill
Which is very very different, but both are good in their own way.
Yeah that's the name was trying to remember what the name of the manga as well
Wow I never knew that. It's certainly not posted in every single comments section featuring Edge of Tomorrow. Every. Single. One.
@@TheMijman shush
Best anime Live action movie for sure next to alita
I absolutely love this movie. Wasnt expecting it to be anywhere near as good as it is.
Hey, guys. As a sound man, I'd suggest turning down your mics a bit, there is a huge difference between the film contact you're reviewing and the commentary.
Damn! The fat soldier who got into his armour naked is the paper boy from the first season of spaced (simon peggs comedy from 99-2001).
This is an excellent film.
The original title “All you need is kill” is by far the best title.
But it's more like all you need is die, to be honest. Otherwise you cannot reset the day.
This movie is when you play on the highest difficulty in COD and die and retry until you get it.
I think the Mimics name is more based on they mimic whatever the Omega orders them to do rather then they mimic other people.
given how this movie has become legendary after struggling at the box office due mainly to its shocking title, hopefully at some point there can be a sequel. there has been talks for many years and cruise isnt getting any younger but would be awesome to see him and blunt team up again. make it happen?
My Top three favorite movies of all time
1.Tron Legacy
2.Oblivion
3.Edge of Tommorow
Love Oblivion.
Man a movie adaptation of the Manga adaption of the original "All You Need Is Kill" would be sooooo awesome. Ufotable, where you at?
I've read it over multiple times already. Such sad, melancholic ending. Definitely one of my favorite stories.
HOLY SHIEEET!!!!!!! This is in my top 3 favorite sci-fi movies of all time!!!! Yaaaasssssssss!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ok that’s a little more hyper than I was going for but fuck yeah!!!!! I love this movie so much!!!!!
This movie is definitely a fun watch. What I love is it reminds me of old NES games where the enemies were in certain places so you had to remember their placements and strategies. So it was just trial and error. So the whole movie he is memorizing everything on that battlefield trying to get to success. And I absolutely love the editing on this movie. Definitely a good gem to find.
I also like to think that at the end when he wakes up in the helicopter, it’s because there’s no reason why he should be at the base/beach battle once the mimics are destroyed.
Someone tried to calculate how long it took cage to do this from his first death on the beach till he killed the omega. I think they figured it was a couple of years, but I could be wrong. It was an interesting calculation though
the mimics probably mimicked each other
Back then when I saw this movie it just blow my mind. It's awesome. Great one guys!
This movie gives me Re:Zero and Groundhog day vibes, I love it.
Just introduced my Aunt to this movie a couple months ago. She had never seen it and she loved it.
This movie is great. And yes time for Calvin to watch some Tom Cruise 😂
Saw this in theaters. Caught it by chance. Glad I did. Underrated jem. Sound in theaters was incredible!
God, the TVA must have their work cut out for them with how many timelines Tom Cruise creates in this movie 😂
The hard part is that if the alpha you kill knows what you are doing and he resets then you are having this time war going on. The only reason they had a advantage at first was the mimics not knowing he was infected.
Edge of tomorrow is definitely in my top 5
I can't believe you guys haven't watched this yet this was an absolute gem in my book it introduced me to Emily Blunt!
Every single employee in the TVA self-pruned themselves because of this event.
I LOVE THIS MOVIE! It's so Underrated and One of the Best Adaptations!
I’m glad you guys wanted to watch this it’s an awesome movie personally.
So glad someone finally did a reaction to this one. It's one of the better Sci-Fi movies out there and one of my favorites. Event Horizon is another one you should react to.
Fun little thing Eric was already aware kinda aware of. We see Cage die 26 times in the movie, but his character in the source material dies over 300 times before the end of the mission.
LOL my mom loves this movie so we ended up buying the DVD and since the cover says LIVE. DIE. REPEAT. that's what she always calls it. It's so confusing that those words take up the whole cover and the actual title is just like on the side XD
When I read starship troopers as a kid this is what I imagined the power armor they wear would have looked like.
Good premise, Groundhog Day but action film. It’s an emotional story too, an absolutely underrated film.
Pretty sure FMB's blade is one half of a helicopters tail rotor LOL. And that *is* badass LOL
I watched this movie in theatres in LA at like 3 am all by myself as I was waiting for my friends haha, I watched it twice that night. Best fucking experience I've ever had in a movie theatre
Calvin and Rick keep shrinking and growing in some of the newer videos
I've found this movie so entertaining when I watched it 😍 Loved it 💪🏽💪🏽
When it first came out, my friends and I kept calling this "Speed-run the movie"
