The Truman Show is like a psychological thriller comedy which is weird but works so well. The parts where Truman acts insane are hilarious but also frightening... MASTERPIECE
They Live is easily one of my favorite movies all the time. I didnt catch everything in this movie until I got older. I just thought it was a cool movie when i was younger. I appreciate the movie so much more now that i "get it"
my awakening came from a lot of abuse happening in my life, and going through some of the worst things a child could go through, eventually i started doing research and finding out what this world is really all about, some individuals call it "woke" or what not, i just call it being consciously aware of your surroundings, and knowing the world just a little more now.
I know this was a year ago! But i know exactly what your talking about! Especially when you're a child! It cause you to have PTSD bug time! 😱 B.S. is right. And they don't want us to be aware or awake? 🇺🇸 i believe that's what this Covid19 🎭 really is? To keep us all apart and wear mask all day 😷😷😷😷 and wash your hands all day! They want us to Obey them! Just like the movie said! 🇺🇸😎😎🌇🌆🌃🌉🗽🌉🏭🗼🏦
i just realized he was born in 54. the cable channel was 54. and i know 54 means a lot in gematria. they do everything by the numbers people. for those who comment about the truman show, it's exactly like that. scary, but true. we are literally prisoners in their world...they control everything.

Quick quibble: Truman was adopted *before* birth, not *at* birth--even his ultrasounds were part of the initial broadcast, and his birth was live on the air, when the studio was already his legal guardian. Great video, as always!
without checking on the movie, i think he was adopted at birth, werent they waiting on several unwanted pregnancies to c who would b the star and truman was born 1st.
They were waiting on at least one other ultrasound and the others were born at different times than when they were gonna make the show. So that's why they chose him and they didn't truly adopt him at birth.
That's kind of Deep it's kind of how if you're born into certain families you're born into some kind of collective where your life is not really your own
They live is one of my all-time favorite movies. I never knew it existed until one late night in 1997 I was flipping channels at about 1 in the morning looking for something to watch. I remember finding it on the opening sequence where Rowdy Piper was walking into the city and I remember seeing they live and thinking what the hell is this. That was one of the most awesome experiences to go through the whole Discovery process with the main character not knowing that aliens were involved. Very similar to how the audience was treated on the very first Matrix movie going down the rabbit hole and having so many questions and they are answered bit-by-bit. However I never realized and all the times I've seen that movie since that they live is scribbled in graffiti throughout the movie. Gives me another reason to go watch it again. Thank you
Haunt Former Truman show rise the Question about human right, is Truman life is actually his to begin with? Imagine finding out all your life you're nothing more than a property of a movie company since birth
Two movies about reality. More like a documentary. They live show how the system works and who's in charge, Truman show is about your consumistic and fake life. Oh, and flat earth theory indeed.
I love truth in plain sight videos. David Byrne's True Stories is one of them as well. ;) "Radiohead, it's the sound, of a brand new world!🎶" -david byrne
David G ~ Yeah, i think that it’s very important that the public gets both sides of the debate and the other side of the propaganda. Please check out these two very important videos = 1 - “A Film That KILLED it’s Own Film Maker : David Crowley,,, Gray State” By Steve Kanterakis Followed by the amazing short video footage called = 2 - “The 5G Virus & Fear Based Programming” By ODD TV They are almost a mirror image of each other, So share it with your Nearest & Dearest. We all must do our best to spread the Truth & wake our people up from a very deep sleep. Please share it with as many people as you can before it gets Removed & Banned from TH-cam. The Censorship Continues but OUR WEAPON IS TRUTH ! God Bless. . .
I feel The Truman Show is ultimately about the relationship between God and Man/Father and Son, while also discussing the importance of freedom and free will while rejecting a safe and comfortable, but ultimately unfree life. Its much more a commentary on modern life as it pertains to our modern government gaining greater athority so we can feel safer and live easier lives while slowly removing our personal freedoms for this protection.
Judson Joist you are confusing symbolism with the literal. God isn't an "imposter" in the Truman show, what he is saying is that Cristoff is a symbol of god. He's not saying that anyone was meant to believe that he was literally god.
I think that it's more about how society is fake and how much technology is taking over our lives to the point where were basically on public display when we go out in public. I mean, pretty much everyone has a mobile device that can record/take pictures of you with a click of a button and every store pretty much has video cameras up on the ceilings, so they can monitor whether people are stealing or not. Plus about how everyone just conforms to society, whether it has to do with going to college or not or even what you do in your freetime, what you wear, what you eat, and/or your physical appearance/physique.
I agree the film is a commentary on freedom and free will, as well as society's hold over us. But more than the role of government, I think it has to do with how much we worship our stuff. Everyone in town is trying to keep Truman there by having him waste his money on new gadgets--a new lawn mower, a new car, a new house. While he's trying to save for Fiji, they would have him blow all his money on cars and houses so he can never leave. I see this as a commentary on our own lives. How many of us complain we have no money to travel or do the other things we want to do, but then we manage to find the money for the latest smartphone or brand new home decor?
@@jettqk1 exactly, many people are to focused on buying the newer cooler thing, like the new brand of clothing/gadgets/addictions sometimes and then they don't have enough money for even groceries/paying bills, let alone going on vacation somewhere. Also, about how society is able to control and manipulate us into believing that we need the next thing in order to be "happy," when really we don't. I also think that the government/society kind of has a bit of control on us though, in a way (like we technically could be recorded at any time by anyone/whatever we put online can be spread to other people and we can be controlled in other ways too).
No...its two sexually frustrated men...the moral of the story is : Guys without sex , end up doing stupid stuff. I have not had sex for over 7 years. I wouldn't be so weird had I had a girlfriend and sleep regularly if I got a old-fashioned and other stuff at night...butt NOOOOOOooooooooo...No sex, means i stay up watching weird alien conspiracy and youtube stuff.
Is it strange that I have felt like this since I was a small kid, even before these movies were released? I was thinking about the reason of being born since I was very small… these movies left me more confused and also in despair to go further with my life knowing this information. And if they are right?
I literally thought there was a massive conspiracy against me when I was a child, where everyone is in on it except for me. And I'm kinda being tested, observed like a lab rat.
The rapid projection of sequential video images from an electronic display induces a trance-like state in the engrossed viewer during which deeper parts of the mind become more susceptible to suggestion. This process changes the neural network structure of the brain as artificial memory traces accumulate over time forming a strong drug-like dependence upon the medium for constant electronic stimulation producing a mind out of sync with nature and increasingly rewired for the frequency of the machine. Vibrating diaphragms and transient glowing screens repeatedly broadcast professional entertainers singing jingles and reading scripted dialogue in a carefully composed world of dramatized make-believe. A world of corporate propaganda designed to promote, not just the brand names of consumer products, but also the way of life and mental attitude that maximises their consumption... Waleed Higgins, The Opening
Yep, all three movies (Truman Show, They Live, and Wall-E) are based off society today and society of the future if we don't change our ways. All three movies are basically about idiocracy because no-one can see/refuses to see the truth.
I'd love for you to do a John Carpenter episode. He's such a great director. Many of his films have received cult like status now, but weren't huge box office successes or that well received when they came out.
I've always had this /kinda/ Passion project about making a They Live sequal, but having it be more about seeing what we want to see in media. How even with the glasses some people don't see the aliens and the messages because they have bassically mentally blocked themselves from it. They choose not to see it. Or maybe someone else see's something, but it's totally different. The message will say "you should buy stuff" but what he sees is "you should die dude" and then he goes home and kills himself. Sometimes people don't see the intended message. Just the one they want.
Omg I just watched They Live for the first time yesterday. That's clearly what they were warning us about. How else would you know that you had to post this video the day after, right? As that teacher from The Incredibles once said: Coincidence? I think not.
Dalton Bedore not really. The matrix is literally just the heros story. The lego movie is actually more groundbreaking because it subverts that. It makes you think that Emmett really is the chosen one but he really isnt.
I once watched Battle Royale and Fight Club back to back, and also found some similarities in their message ... at 4am. You're not special. Prove your worth. Fight for your life and make it worth living. Run!
02:55 Sirius is a returning thing in Jim Carey Movies, lot of conspiricy about it. Or mabey all a coincidence. OT: i like this video and new format, hope to see more like it.
"Pleasantville" starring Toby McGuire, Reese Witherspoon and a very aged Don Notts is another example of this influence of television and how paradise was lost.
Brazil... Saw it in the late 80's and it actually resonates more today IMO. Turns-out it was as prophetic and poignant as it is entertaining and thought provoking.
Of course, Charlie and the chocolate factory is every teen horror ever made.... You sin, you die, and the most innocent one survives after a close call or two
That movie's tunnel scene (the Wilder one, NOT the Depp version) is still one of the creepiest, most disturbing scenes out there. I mean, Who TF shows a chicken being decapitated in a kid's movie? Scene still trips my psychological triggers 40 years later. /shudder
Interestingly enough, I, and many people I spoke to, found the intro to the Depp movie to be rather disturbing -almost more so than the Wilder tunnel scene, but for different reasons.
@@TheOneLichemperor i found that disturbing too. Because of how the puppets were burnt and there voices. That made me believe it was a horror movie. I just saw that movie and even though this video is not related to the movie i see this comment. What a coincidence
@@shrekshrek I'd like to see a video of the real globe doing all this all at the same time, show me that CGI video → the globe is magically spinning tilted wobbling & flying through infinite nothingness magical outerspace chasing the Sun at 500,000mph while orbiting the Sun at the same time at 67,000mph along with the other so called planets all doing the same all at the same time & SATs & the ISS orbits the globe at 17,500mph while all that is going on all at the same time & those solar panels aren't ripped off of the ISS & none of those SATs ever need maintenance or ever crash into each other flying so fast, space is freakin magical 🤣 all globers suffer from globeturditus 🤣🤣🤣
First time I saw They Live and Actually watched it ( because somehow I never came across it before then) was like 6 years ago. I was at the beach in our beach house one night flipping through tv channels. And I came across the opening credits to they live. Not knowing anything about it or even what kind of movie it was. I was a little buzzed from the beers and kept buzzed the whole time. So here I am 22 buzzed on the couch just watching whayever movie had started. Classic Film B movie Vibes start hitting me hard as it goes on. I didnt dare blink or turn the channel as I had never been more interested in what a movie was about or what was going to happen next. I remember that feeling like god I hope I dont have to pee anytime soon. Forgetting I can pause live tv. Idk what happened there. Soon as he put the sun glasses on that first black and white scene showing the alien corrupted being under a normal human being had me going Oh shit. This is really something. Why the hell habnt I heard of this. Is this some epic 80s b movie that just never got the credit it deserved? Little did I know about its Popularity then. I saw it one time. That was that night. And If i watch it again it will be One more time and I'll wait years or longer to watch it again. Why? It never gets old. Wanna see a really messed up funny gross 80s movie? It's called Maximum Overdrive. The original one. Alien ghost things take over Vehicles and Electronics even soda machine can kill people. Yeah imagine that scene. But mainly the ghost aliens like to take over 18 Wheelers. And there favorite thing to do? Hit a human body going 100 mph of course! Lol You like bloody b movies? This has buckets.
I feel like Truman show and Matrix are more alike, but this is also a good comparison filled with stuff ive never noticed before. I love when this happens with movies ive seen countless times.
Great video. As for a suggestion: This may be a little too on the nose, but I'd love to see an analysis of how Lynch's Mulholland Drive and Bergman's Persona overlap; or, if you folks are able to look at a very new movie, how Scorsese's Taxi Driver and Ramsay's You Were Never Really Here overlap. I love the content. Keep up the good work!
take a look at the movie: "san andreas (2015)" and the norwegian movie: "Bølgen / The wave (also 2015) both films are about a a family living in a aeria where there is a risk of the whole place being flooded with water. the floodings happend and both movies (spoilerallert!) feature the familes getting split and feature relativly similar endings... both movies were release in autumn of 2015.
My friend introduced me to They Live last week. I was speechless. Can't believe it was made in 80s and based on a story from the 60s. It's still relevant today, minus the aliens, unless you believe in those human/alien hybrid conspiracies.
Spoiler alert. He becomes a slightly unhinged artist and paints mediocre quality, but highly thought provoking social commentary. It's a delightful pic. I'm about 2/3 through. I think.
If you look at Assassins and The Specialist. They both star Stallone as a skilled wet work man. They have their own rules and abide by them. In the specialist he is retired wet worker. That could be altered so that his previous character in Assassins. Just could be an unintentional sequel of sorts occuring.

I think The Truman Show is one of those films that crosses the line between comedy and psychological thriller/drama. Kind of like The Cable Guy.
William Crowe The Cable Guy was criminally underrated when it came out imo
For some reason many people hate cable guy. Baffles me.
Many people have no taste.
To quote George Carlin: "Think of how stupid the average person is, and then realize half of them are stupider than that."
The Cable Guy is my all-time favourite movie!

Love your reply I really felt that
I wonder if you watched it on tnt MonsterVision, that's the first time I watched it and it was on pretty late at night.
Both very great movies with neat concepts! Sometimes I feel like The Truman Show in a way is horrifying.
Haunt Former what’s horrifying is that it’s real! You’re the True Man living the movie 🎥 🍿
Haunt Former Truman show rise the Question about human right, is Truman life is actually his to begin with? Imagine finding out all your life you're nothing more than a property of a movie company since birth
If you like The Truman Show hunt down a copy of "Captive Universe" by Harry Harrison.
Faizal F for the past 80 years just the concept of being assigned a social security number at birth is the government claiming us as their property.
Of course. The biggest show on TV is a reality show.
Watch Cinefix !!! LOL
That was brilliant, right?
I spit my coffee on my keyboard! You owe me a new keyboard Cinefix

But did you catch the subscribe to cinefix at 1:12 it's much more subtle.
They live, Truman show, Idocracy, The matrix, Dark city, and many more masterpieces be givin hints.
Both movies are essential to the awakening process..
Two movies about reality.
More like a documentary.

Interestingly enough, I, and many people I spoke to, found the intro to the Depp movie to be rather disturbing -almost more so than the Wilder tunnel scene, but for different reasons.
@@TheOneLichemperor i found that disturbing too. Because of how the puppets were burnt and there voices. That made me believe it was a horror movie. I just saw that movie and even though this video is not related to the movie i see this comment. What a coincidence
Have you seen Snpwpiercer yet?!
"Watch Cinefix" in the They Live subliminals.
Well played.
GREAT VIDEO AND PERSPECTIVE ON BOTH MOVIES!!! Thank you!
Hey! Don't think we didn't notice the "Watch Cinefix" message at 2:38
Even the Truman show tried to tell us the truth about the dome, Earth is flat & stationary with a firmament dome over us all
but in one scene of the movie it shows the whole earth
@@shrekshrek CGI cartoon spaceball 👍 globe
@@tonyflatearther you believe what you believe and i believe what i believe
@@shrekshrek I'd like to see a video of the real globe doing all this all at the same time, show me that CGI video → the globe is magically spinning tilted wobbling & flying through infinite nothingness magical outerspace chasing the Sun at 500,000mph while orbiting the Sun at the same time at 67,000mph along with the other so called planets all doing the same all at the same time & SATs & the ISS orbits the globe at 17,500mph while all that is going on all at the same time & those solar panels aren't ripped off of the ISS & none of those SATs ever need maintenance or ever crash into each other flying so fast, space is freakin magical 🤣 all globers suffer from globeturditus 🤣🤣🤣

I just come with a theory: what if the station in the truman show is the same station in they live
Two of my absolute favourites! Looking forward to this new series.
need a episode on movies that are watched for their commentary tracks...Big Trouble in Little China has an awesome commentary and so much fun to hear
They are accurate descriptions of our world, human experience, and popular culture!
Love them.
Both are akin to Snowpiercer, and Holy Mountain.
First time I saw They Live and Actually watched it ( because somehow I never came across it before then) was like 6 years ago. I was at the beach in our beach house one night flipping through tv channels. And I came across the opening credits to they live. Not knowing anything about it or even what kind of movie it was. I was a little buzzed from the beers and kept buzzed the whole time.
So here I am 22 buzzed on the couch just watching whayever movie had started.
Classic Film B movie Vibes start hitting me hard as it goes on. I didnt dare blink or turn the channel as I had never been more interested in what a movie was about or what was going to happen next. I remember that feeling like god I hope I dont have to pee anytime soon. Forgetting I can pause live tv. Idk what happened there.
Soon as he put the sun glasses on that first black and white scene showing the alien corrupted being under a normal human being had me going Oh shit. This is really something. Why the hell habnt I heard of this. Is this some epic 80s b movie that just never got the credit it deserved? Little did I know about its Popularity then.
I saw it one time. That was that night. And If i watch it again it will be One more time and I'll wait years or longer to watch it again. Why? It never gets old.
Wanna see a really messed up funny gross 80s movie?
It's called Maximum Overdrive. The original one. Alien ghost things take over Vehicles and Electronics even soda machine can kill people. Yeah imagine that scene. But mainly the ghost aliens like to take over 18 Wheelers. And there favorite thing to do? Hit a human body going 100 mph of course! Lol
You like bloody b movies? This has buckets.
Love this series already and I would love to see more. Perhaps look into Unforgiven and Logan for their similar themes of genre deconstruction?
enjoyed both of these movies a lot...i especially want the intro of They Live (welcome to L.A) as my ring tone
2:39 ALL HAIL CINEFIX
I'm glad you finally fixed your sound mixing. On several of your movie lists, the music is too loud making it difficult to hear what Clint is saying.
Two of my favorite movies. RIP Mr. Piper.
1:12 I see what you did there, buddy.
Edit: And 2:37.
No one else noticed 1:12. Great job.
What's the one at 1:12? I can't find it lol
The small white printed, more like sprayed, lower right side of the wall.
Ziyad Khalil Ahh, thanks! Wow, that one's small, how do you even notice that? Respect.
I feel like Truman show and Matrix are more alike, but this is also a good comparison filled with stuff ive never noticed before. I love when this happens with movies ive seen countless times.
This is great! Keep up the great work!
Dark City fits those two well.
2:38 I have a sudden urge to watch cinefix.
Excellent video!! I see it so clearly!!👀💯💪🏾
Great video. As for a suggestion: This may be a little too on the nose, but I'd love to see an analysis of how Lynch's Mulholland Drive and Bergman's Persona overlap; or, if you folks are able to look at a very new movie, how Scorsese's Taxi Driver and Ramsay's You Were Never Really Here overlap. I love the content. Keep up the good work!
take a look at the movie: "san andreas (2015)" and the norwegian movie: "Bølgen / The wave (also 2015) both films are about a a family living in a aeria where there is a risk of the whole place being flooded with water. the floodings happend and both movies (spoilerallert!) feature the familes getting split and feature relativly similar endings... both movies were release in autumn of 2015.
these movies being only 10 years apart blew my mind more than anything else
I like the subtle addition to signs with "watch cinefix"... Well played, aliens, well played.
My friend introduced me to They Live last week. I was speechless. Can't believe it was made in 80s and based on a story from the 60s. It's still relevant today, minus the aliens, unless you believe in those human/alien hybrid conspiracies.
truman show needs to have a part 2 when jim carrey lives in the real world
Spoiler alert. He becomes a slightly unhinged artist and paints mediocre quality, but highly thought provoking social commentary. It's a delightful pic. I'm about 2/3 through. I think.
That's freaking amazing! I need to pay more attention to the subtle things...
Great concept, love it. Excited to see more of these....
Strange. I suddenly feel the urge to watch and like every single CineFix video.
something about this video is making me want to watch more cinefix videos
If you look at Assassins and The Specialist. They both star Stallone as a skilled wet work man. They have their own rules and abide by them. In the specialist he is retired wet worker. That could be altered so that his previous character in Assassins.
Just could be an unintentional sequel of sorts occuring.
Add The Matrix, Invasion of the Body Snatchers and The Prisoner T.V. series to that mix.
I'm just restraining myself to go into a rant but it will all add up to both those movies rock 🤣
I love the end of they live when the girl realizes that she is doing an alien
I love this channel so much
Truman show is the scariest movie of all time 🔮
Both movies are groundbreaking classic. Love 'em. But love They Live is a bit more ')
This is an excellent video. Thank you for this.
You could throw in "The Final Cut" with Robin Williams with those movies too.
They Live is an awesome film. Interesting comparison! I really enjoyed reviewing They Live and should give The Truman Show a go!
hahaha. Love your own hidden message of "watch Cinefix" - nice!
It's called subliminal messaging, this kind of brainwashing takes place every time we watch tv, the internet, and even music thru backmasking.
Mindblowing, love this channel
Great video! Hope there are more like this to come... btw, how about Pochahontas and Avatar?
For some reason I feel like watching every CineFix video and liking them. Weird...
i thought you were gonna pull a "24 reasons these movies are the same" shtick. good job, you guys.
Nice addition of "Watch Cinefix." I'll obey that.
...not ONLY THAT, but BOTH John Nada and Truman Burbank have NOSES on their FACES!!!!!! 😱
Invasion of the body snatchers should of been mentioned somewhere in here.
Bingo
Love this new segment!
Apocalypse Now and Patton have similar central ideas. both Coppola films and provide in sights when watched back to back
Very good video and fan lore, good job
