Thats because JJ is a very hollow creature that’s why it can fly and why it can allow screams because of its hollow body the screams bounce *off* the interior walls allowing the screams to be amplified.
I love at 2:11 how the genre almost changes. The focus isn't on the alien hunting OJ, it's on JO baiting him. OJ his riding. The music swells I that classic western style. Suddenly we've left a horror movie and are in a modern western. This movie is unbelievable I could watch it everyday and never get tired
I just love when he drops the flutter flag JJ it's almost like it shudders while sideways it makes a sound that we hadn't heard before that moment it turns n leaves and doesn't suck up the flags because it's scared of that damn fake horse from before it's so god damn good soooo good!!
Nope feels like a modern reimagining of a classic cowboy tale, but it's completely original. I love love love the cowboys vs aliens trope so it's just another thing that makes this movie one of my favourites
Seriously, I can't believe it got such mild reviews. I know it's not as creepy as Get Out or Us but it's all around amazing from start to finish, kept me entranced, and it has definitely kept me disturbed for a few days (the raining blood scene, the chimp scene, just the monster in general).
Daniel’s dismount off a running horse was one of the coolest things I have ever seen in a movie. Also, seeing his silhouette at the end made me so happy.
Not just that though, but the fact he told Lucky to keep going. Most amateur equestrians whenever they get off the horse mid run, the horse instinctively stops because they want to make sure their rider got off safe. Lucky would have nearly killed himself for OJ, had OJ not tell him to keep going.
@@revelare_xvii6269 Totally, when I first saw the trailer release, I didn't know what to expect. But Jordan Peele really made it vague, as if we were getting green men piloting a space ship. But NOPE! None of that, just the creature actually being a predator makes it more awesome and scary.
@@TheDark_Strider yep. Instead of being a typical flying saucer that we seen for decades, Jordan Peele went creative and push the stakes higher for the alien appearance.
1:12 The way Jean Jacket purposely hovered over OJ while killing the TMZ reporter was just evil. It’s like Jean was saying “look at me just once so I can do this to you!!”
That's why when some people say "Jean Jacket is just an animal trying to survive!", I like to point out this scene how it shows a bit of malice. It can keep someone alive (partially digesting) before crushing them, holding out the final snuff in order to make someone look up.
Hearing the guy scream “ oh God!” Is so realistic it’s so chilling because most horror films you just hear screams but in this film you hear one woman yell “ it burns” to someone else begging for help…and just the deluge from fear, to confusion to sheer terror once fully realized they’re about to be eaten Alive is just so nicely done
@@CasualCat64 Actually no. The "goofy mirror helmet" was the reason he didn't die immediately, because Jean wouldn't have been able to tell that the reporter was looking at him. It was OJ looking at Jean through the helmet that made Jean think the reporter was looking at it, since it appeared as if the eye contact was coming from the helmet. That's why OJ apologized before leaving him, as he had accidentally doomed the reporter.
And the cinematography it’s the same cinematographer from the Dark Knight trilogy which is crazy I found that out the other day thought that was sooo cool.
I don't think I've ever been so hyped watching a scene in a long time. The scene at 2:33 alone just gives me so much goosebumps on how just giant and badass it is.
I want to take a knife and cut into it's tan leathery/silky skin and take a large piece of it and listen to the sound it makes as I cut into it. Then stretch it and cover it over my head
Yes...i was watching with headphone around midnight..i literally sceamed throughout that scene when JJ chases OJ..i don't remember last time when i was so hyped watching a movie
It’s a lose lose for both creatures since jj would be able to kill the xenomorph but the Xeno being crushed would release the blood burning the guts of jj
the best audio/visual moment I experienced in a theater this year. This score is so amazing, how it goes from a very dissonant Hitchcockian score, to then incorporating elements of vintage crime tv shows and then morphs into full on western tv serial music - just incredible stuff.
This has to be the most bizarre hostile creature ever. It doesn't like to be looked at (I assume its "lens" or eye is sensitive to eye contact and it triggers a killing instinct) but also is able to taunt creatures and change its physicality in order to *entice* prey to look at it. It's like it needs its prey to witness it killing them
It's less like that it NEEDS them to look at it for some sick desire, but a hunting method, by making its presence known and unfurling itself, it entices prey or potential competitors to look in its direction so it can detect them.
It might also be partly that this creature is new to earth and is still figuring out what is food/ isn't food. Life on earth could be very well so alien to it that it has yet to discover everything that is "food" shaped, so it is going with the few stimuli that are either familiar, or that has established consistently mean food. As unusual as it is to see the whites of the eyes unless an animal is extremely frightened on earth, it has likely discovered this as a method to specifically identify humans. That's also probably why the colorful flags were such an effective deterrent. Since it had successfully eaten and been habituated to see horses as prey until then, the only observable difference between a regular horse and the statue, is the flags.
I believe looking wild animals in the eye is challenging them. So obviously, being challenged by other predators, JJ would kill them so as to show its dominance and superiority. I am not an animal expert however, and could be wrong
@@oceanicwhitetip8984 I heard someone on reddit say it might specifically be the whites of victims' eyes tht jean jacket detects. seems like it has night vision, so it could hunt in the night for the horses without problems.
I love how this scene shows just how enormous JJ actually is, the fact he moves so fast as well is really scary as well. Seeing him dart in and out of cloud cover, quickly ascending into the sky after a kill, then swooping down just as fast. I'll be honest, after seeing this movie, I didn't look at the partially clouded night sky the same way I did before.
Thought it was bc O.J. knew he couldn't save TMZ guy bc his helmet was basically a giant version of the silver reflective ball that spooked the horse in the beginning. It was gonna set jean jacket off too
god i love how oj uses the flag from the fake horse earlier in the film that most people would disregard to make the giant alien murder creature scream, go on its side, and even fly away upside down
It's why I love it, OJ is an animal trainer and understands and respects how animals react to stimuli (the flag looks like a threatening creature beg enough to scare jeans jacket) compared to how others in the film think animals are easily controllable or tamed (OJ avoids this hubris)
I thought Jean jacket was scared away when OJ deployed the colorful flags and little parachute was because jean jacket associated the flags with the same ones that were on the fake horse which got lodged inside of it earlier in the movie and it made Jean back off immediately.
@@adventurekitty101 especially the digestion scene and the house scene, those people actually sounded like they were screaming for their lives Shook me to my core
When the camera pans just before his final stretch riding his horse, that was the first time in a very long time that I felt excited for a character while watching a movie. Haven’t felt that way in YEARS. Jordan Peele deserves so much more respect
i assume you are talkin bout eva as the movie that inspired it, both are amazing pieces of media that have amazing and fun scenes but are overshadowed by the traumatic ones. also im glad that my favorite angel ramiel was the inspiration for jean jacket lol
@@TakoTrucker Actually I was referring to Jaws. The first half of the movie was pure horror. The shark killing people and the paranoia and pandemonium that followed. Whereas the second half of the movie was pure adventure. Baiting the shark, trying to catch the shark, killing the shark.
@@TakoTrucker Also while I understand that Jean Jacket's many forms represented the angels in Eva as well as the biblically accurate depictions of angels that Eva took inspiration from, I refuse to acknowledge and support a show where the main hero is a whiny emo b*** that molests comatose girls.
2:34 as it descends during this shot, you can make out the pupil within the hole. Its eye is recessed towards the "back" in its normal form, positioned to look down and forwards. The recurring interior shots of Jean Jacket are from a first person perspective.
@@Tumbledweeb OJ (guy in the orange hoodie) chose to name the creature that after one of their old horses that apparently was a territorial wild card that followed its instincts and didn't do as it was told. Basically a mirror to what the creature is in it's purest form; a territorial predator that cannot be wrangled or tamed by just anybody.
well its theorized by the footage of ufos and such is that the things can basically manipulate gravity so it is not effected by any resistances you would see effect a conventional aircraft so pretty much it can go however fast it can possibly go with no resistance
@@popmmog-7 what the original comment is mentioning is that sound jj makes when it's idle and killing people the sound produced that actually hurts your head when you hear it is just it's stomach contracting to crush the life out of it's prey causing air to flow past jj's vocal cords producing a BOOM of sound like the horn that begins ragnarok
2:36 is one of the greatest shots of 2022 imo and the first thing I think of when I think of this movie. Would love to have the still frame as a poster
@@abijithp92 Early on before they found out what this thing was, they assumed that something was snatching their horses. So they stole one of Jupe's Decoy horses which has a string of colour flags attached to it and used it as bait. The UFO ate it, it caused the UFO pain and that's why it binge ate and crushed up those poor people of The Star Lasso experience so he can throw it up. So every time that UFO sees one of those flags, it immediately thinks it's from another fake horse and doesn't want to choke again.
this movie was a masterpiece, it did everything a classic era thriller did, and did it in such a fun, horrifying, cheer-inducing way. Easily among the greats of both horror and sci fi movie monsters.
There was a time when Humans (specifically Human children) were actively hunted by large Birds of Prey, those Avians are all Extinct now (I don’t think I need to tell you why) but the Instinctive fear we have of flying things still exists.
This monster is so creepy. There was one scene where OJ was trying to call Lucky back and Jean Jacket appeared super close trying to eat him. It's so discomforting. The idea to turn it into a predator and not a ship was a good one.
I love that it looks like an eye hovering over OJ, the fearful cries telling of how we'd all be feeling with something like that looming over us. Lol awesome
The sound design of this movie is just phenomenal Hearing the tmz guy just screaming the entire time in the background and then hearing the exact moment he dies is haunting as hell I also love how jean jackets body echoes the screams of it's victims All the more terrifying that if you have never encountered this thing then you would have no idea wtf is happening and all you hear is screams
2:34 is one of my favorite shots in this whole movie. Just gives you such a sense of Jean Jacket's immensity and the sheer amount of force it generates to push out that much dust, that far ahead of itself.
The facial expression at 0:25 is the reason Antler did what he did. This is the first time he saw JJ himself. He lost his rational mind at this moment.
This one of those movies where im so glad i watched it in the theater. The visual composition and audio mix have so much more impact in that setting. Legit probably my favorie JP movie and one of my favorite movies of the last few years.
I think the best thing about this movie is everyone looking up at Jean Jacket whenever it appears in awe that’s a very genuine human reaction especially if it’s something we’ve never seen before anyone would definitely stare at it not considering the repercussions
@@flarestriker2005 to be fair. Marvel has the general populace mind controlled at this point. They really don't have to make good movies anymore. They just have to deliver on fan service moments and people will come back.
@@Follower-of-Jehovah-The-Lord21 I'd agree. But they deliver on certain shows every now and again so i doubt theyll ever totally lose their audience. The few people they lose right now will just come back for a later, cooler movie.🤷🏿♂️
The scariest part of this scene is that you can tell that Jean is getting close because the screams insides digestive tract get louder. Also the idea of the alien itself being a living UFO is pretty cool.
@@atas2561He'a just been flying in the clouds above our heads, and we never truly noticed until most recently (when this film debuted to theaters). I know a LOT of film-goers left the place after seeing this movie and not seeing the clouds/sky the same way again.
@@joshjess9841The Horror of The Heights is a short story about monsters that live high in the clouds. Maybe the UFOs that we see are really just things that live in the ocean and the sky.
0:57 I think this moment proves how this movie can become one of the best horror of al time This jumpscare is like nothing else, The creature breaks the scene appearing in the corner, synced with this innocuous but also terrifying sound effect and OJ immediately turn his head down This is pure horror
In this one clip alone you have an immaculate display of sound design, score, VFX and cinematography..... and yet the academy felt that it was not worthy of a nomination for any of those categories
Same. Was already interested by the UFO and Gordy plotlines and hooked after the twist of Jean Jacket is revealed, but yeah this scene with it swooping down was awesome.
I have an unlikely theory about Jean Jacket. Simple: It becomes what it eats. Not like visually, but mentally. It doesn't like to be looked at, and if you see how OJ and Em got fired, it was because Scorpion King was shown a reflection of himself, which made it look like Scorpion King was being looked at. Another thing: Since it ate humans, it learns. You know how you don't like a food someone shared with you, and when you have the option to try it again a couple days later, you know you still don't like it? Same thing applies with the colored flags that Jean Jacket doesn't like. He first ate the horse statue with the flags, and it caused him to vomit all the contents and people from the Star Lasso Experience. He saw it again when OJ pulled it out behind him, and Jean Jacket completely flipped to it's side to get out of the way.
I disagree, it just makes itself a spectacle to be looked at; it's only a biological directive. For example, a frilled-neck lizard isn't intelligent for knowing its frill makes it look bigger.
I actually don't think that's what it's doing- it's making a threat display. It's trying to scare OJ as a challenge. If he looks at it, he's challenging it for dominance. If not, he's being subservient. JJ doesn't seem to view humans as prey; I think we're too small. It only attacks us if we challenge it, and its only method of attack is eating. Note how it doesn't care if the horses look at it, it'll eat them anyway. I think large mammals are its actual prey.
OJ and lLucky survived at the end because Jean Jacket didn't eat them. When JJ swallowed the Jupe balloon the inside was quiet. No screaming. OJ and his horse were quiet and tired at the end because they ran all that distance to check on Em.
There’s actually a sound que when they’re doing the “eyes on me” and you can hear the horse scream. There’s a lot of cool tricks like that where either the score or the sfx will call back to something. While I hope that sound que was just meant as a subtle way to trigger horror, it does add to to the Out Yonder ending. Also love the color grading pops those letters very “unnaturally”. They purposely emphasized those letterings while keeping OJ and Lucky still foggy
@@ellatino55 I figure that poor Lucky finally got a good look at Jean Jacket, which made him scream out. To me the scream was misdirection on Jordan Peele's part. So was the "Out Yonder" sign and the fogginess in the scene. Peele has said he wants the audience to reach their own conclusion about OJ and Lucky's fate, but for me the fact that we didn't hear them screaming inside JJ was the kicker. That told me they made it.
@@madcat4301 Watch the Nope Distracting Jean Jacket scene. You can hear 2 horse screams and what sounds like a low crushing sounds. No more screams after that. It’s distant so you’ll have to listen carefully but it’s there. It’s the shot where she’s on the bike trying to start it. She’s holding back tears and screams “come on!”. She’s trying to get the monsters attention to follow her.
@@ellatino55 Nah, that's just Lucky freaking out (this wasn't her first encounter with JJ) and general JJ noises. Consider: -JJ doesn't make any sudden moves towards OJ in the lead up to those sounds -there was no reason for OJ to stop backing away -this is a Jordan Peele film. He wouldn't have a horse named "Lucky" if she wasn't, you know, lucky.
@@gifgoldblum7940 it’s kept ambiguous for a reason, but that sound effect is basically the Pavlov effect and it’s the only real clue we get as to what happened. There are no clues they survived other than the ambiguity of them in the fog, Out Yonder. Which is also a clue to their death. Every animal in the title card is also killed. The idea of the hero dying is also a very post-western trope. You can say they live, but there are enough deliberate and subtle filmmaking clues. But death of the author. The intent is definitely to have it ambiguous. Atleast one editor expected them to die, which is why we get that sound.
Never even considered that. Yeah, u might be right. Would've been a cool visual affect, imo, if they added a dark blurry effect at each corner of the camera to emphasis further that this is what JJ itself sees when it's roaming about in it's saucer/hunting shape.
@@joshjess9841for me personally if they did at an effect it should have been an orange colour since that what’s seen inside of JJ’s stomach so personally it should’ve been orange but I think I’m fine with just a clear visual since and predator like JJ wouldn’t have blurry eye sight and would need to see perfectly to do what it does.
Michael Abels, however Peele, whom had this movie inspired by the adventure horror movies like Jaws, made Abels do music in the styles of Silvestri and John Williams.
I love the smile OJ gives after Jean Jacket flees. It's like he just realized he did the most awesome thing ever.
he's very stoic and collected for most of the movie so to see him have a moment of joy like this after doing something so insane is very satisfying
I mean, If I was a normally stoic person, and I manage to make a living flying saucer flee, I would laugh in pride
They're acting like some materadors for that big space vacuum
Why did it flee?
He did the most insane thing anyone could ever do and only do once
A monster that allows for the screams of its victims to be heard is brilliant
Thats because JJ is a very hollow creature that’s why it can fly and why it can allow screams because of its hollow body the screams bounce *off* the interior walls allowing the screams to be amplified.
After knowing what it's like in the digestive system of jean-jacket, being able to hear the echoed screams is honestly horrifying
That’s the part that gets me the most-
I was actually scared seeing those parts- Chills straight to my heart
Scariest part is when the scream stops, that’s when you know the guy probably hit the digestive track
I think it was scarier first time round. Kind of like the original chestburster being scarier than all subsequent scenes
@@ThatGuyWithAComment thats when jean jackets muscles crush them into a digestable pulp
It’s horrific
The way that OJ trained that horse so well that it isn't freaking out even with THAT above them and the screams.
Honestly was amazed at that too. When Lucky was just chilling there right when OJ needed it I was like "now that is a good horse".
They are horses that he trained for movies. So yes, they are very well trained.
I love at 2:11 how the genre almost changes. The focus isn't on the alien hunting OJ, it's on JO baiting him. OJ his riding. The music swells I that classic western style. Suddenly we've left a horror movie and are in a modern western. This movie is unbelievable I could watch it everyday and never get tired

Nope feels like a modern reimagining of a classic cowboy tale, but it's completely original. I love love love the cowboys vs aliens trope so it's just another thing that makes this movie one of my favourites
Yesssss OJ was wrangling Jean Jacket! As he said “we are animal wranglers”
Seriously, I can't believe it got such mild reviews. I know it's not as creepy as Get Out or Us but it's all around amazing from start to finish, kept me entranced, and it has definitely kept me disturbed for a few days (the raining blood scene, the chimp scene, just the monster in general).

@@TakoTrucker Actually I was referring to Jaws. The first half of the movie was pure horror. The shark killing people and the paranoia and pandemonium that followed. Whereas the second half of the movie was pure adventure. Baiting the shark, trying to catch the shark, killing the shark.
@@TakoTrucker Also while I understand that Jean Jacket's many forms represented the angels in Eva as well as the biblically accurate depictions of angels that Eva took inspiration from, I refuse to acknowledge and support a show where the main hero is a whiny emo b*** that molests comatose girls.
@@Shanethefilmmaker sorry man, i totally forgot bout jaws
@@Shanethefilmmaker well the movie itself has the vibe of a Spielberg Film
This is honestly one of my favourite scenes in a film ever
The Oscars snubbed this movie hard. I think this movie will be appreciated more as the years go by.
No it’s just the Oscar’s are useless at their job and this movie is pretty good.
One of the smartest protagonists in horror movies I've ever seen. Dude was basically in control of the encounter the entire time.
But it's never at the expense of the threat Jean Jacket poses. Even with OJ's composure and skill, Jean Jacket is still terrifying. I love it.
2:34 as it descends during this shot, you can make out the pupil within the hole. Its eye is recessed towards the "back" in its normal form, positioned to look down and forwards.
The recurring interior shots of Jean Jacket are from a first person perspective.
......Jean... Jacket?
@@Tumbledweebyeah, that's how OJ and Emerald named the monster
@@Tumbledweeb OJ (guy in the orange hoodie) chose to name the creature that after one of their old horses that apparently was a territorial wild card that followed its instincts and didn't do as it was told. Basically a mirror to what the creature is in it's purest form; a territorial predator that cannot be wrangled or tamed by just anybody.
The fact that Jean Jacket can emit sonic booms is insane considering how large it is.
well its theorized by the footage of ufos and such is that the things can basically manipulate gravity so it is not effected by any resistances you would see effect a conventional aircraft so pretty much it can go however fast it can possibly go with no resistance
@@popmmog-7 It’s like watching a 747 moving as fast as a fighter jet.
I mean. It's just a big balloon pretty much. It's probably not as heavy as it looks. I'd imagine it can slip through the atmosphere easily enough.
@@popmmog-7 what the original comment is mentioning is that sound jj makes when it's idle and killing people the sound produced that actually hurts your head when you hear it is just it's stomach contracting to crush the life out of it's prey causing air to flow past jj's vocal cords producing a BOOM of sound like the horn that begins ragnarok
And it can cause some sort of EMP when it’s around technology.
2:36 is one of the greatest shots of 2022 imo and the first thing I think of when I think of this movie. Would love to have the still frame as a poster
3:17 that thing dipped so dang fast, it literally was so terrified, it went super sonic.
In other words, it said the very thing OJ said to it when he first encountered it. "Nope."
@@Shanethefilmmaker Well, You're not lying.
Why was it terrified?
@@abijithp92 Early on before they found out what this thing was, they assumed that something was snatching their horses. So they stole one of Jupe's Decoy horses which has a string of colour flags attached to it and used it as bait. The UFO ate it, it caused the UFO pain and that's why it binge ate and crushed up those poor people of The Star Lasso experience so he can throw it up. So every time that UFO sees one of those flags, it immediately thinks it's from another fake horse and doesn't want to choke again.
The sonic booms make my subwoofers SIIINGGG. The sound design in this movie is a home theater enthusiast's dream.
this movie was a masterpiece, it did everything a classic era thriller did, and did it in such a fun, horrifying, cheer-inducing way. Easily among the greats of both horror and sci fi movie monsters.
0:53 is so scary, imagine hearing those screams right above you and not being able to acknowledge it
The freakin ripples in the things skin is so wild.
Yes, Jordan Peele is outstanding 🙌🏾🙌🏾
First instance I think the film showed us it's slightly wavy skin.
This movie was something else. Definitely my personal favorite Jordan Peele movie.
i was a spooky kid raised on the X-Files and this is definitely my favorite movie of his.
this whole sequence had me smiling like an idiot. 10/10
there is something about jean jacket that strikes genuine fear in my heart and i LOVE it!!
It's anywhere and everywhere all at once. It is terrifying and the fact it echo locates you too wtf
There was a time when Humans (specifically Human children) were actively hunted by large Birds of Prey, those Avians are all Extinct now (I don’t think I need to tell you why) but the Instinctive fear we have of flying things still exists.
@@lonestarwolfentertainment7184 wait i had no idea about that that honestly makes a lot of sense. 😄
This monster is so creepy. There was one scene where OJ was trying to call Lucky back and Jean Jacket appeared super close trying to eat him. It's so discomforting. The idea to turn it into a predator and not a ship was a good one.
I love that it looks like an eye hovering over OJ, the fearful cries telling of how we'd all be feeling with something like that looming over us. Lol awesome
I love how sinister the music is, and then turns into a cool adventurous beat.
NOPE = A "Cowboy vs Alien" version of "Jaws"... such an original composition !
The sound design of this movie is just phenomenal
Hearing the tmz guy just screaming the entire time in the background and then hearing the exact moment he dies is haunting as hell
I also love how jean jackets body echoes the screams of it's victims
All the more terrifying that if you have never encountered this thing then you would have no idea wtf is happening and all you hear is screams
2:34 is one of my favorite shots in this whole movie. Just gives you such a sense of Jean Jacket's immensity and the sheer amount of force it generates to push out that much dust, that far ahead of itself.
Michael Abels was truly snubbed of an Oscar nod! The music in this scene gives me chills every single time!
That soundtrack from 1:40 onwards, tho... 🤩
Yea it’s a awesome score. John Williams would be proud
Like a Hitchcock Western, IMO!
And it's so crazy how that piece of music is over 10 years old just reworked a bit
The facial expression at 0:25 is the reason Antler did what he did. This is the first time he saw JJ himself. He lost his rational mind at this moment.
Lost his damn mind smh
He also had only one eye open, which is a recurring theme of camera obscura, camera shutter and the idea of the gaze.
@@venomsn4keeAs well as the design detail for Jean Jacket's own green-squared "eye".
That was when he realized what the Haywoods were actually commissioning his talent for.
I don’t blame him if I saw a damn alien that big I would have no words as well.
Finally the full scene of The Run
Yea!
This one of those movies where im so glad i watched it in the theater. The visual composition and audio mix have so much more impact in that setting. Legit probably my favorie JP movie and one of my favorite movies of the last few years.
Aside from the scaryness that happens in this movie, can we take a moment to appreciate the chase music that starts at 2:14
Yes. It's epic and even sounds heroic/ suspenseful.
Nothing special about it lmao it sucks
@@mrbig4514 Huh? Who said that?
Sorry, but I can't seem to find the person who asked.
@@mrbig4514 you'd know lots about sucking eh?
@@joshjess9841 lmao it sucks so does the movie
I think the best thing about this movie is everyone looking up at Jean Jacket whenever it appears in awe that’s a very genuine human reaction especially if it’s something we’ve never seen before anyone would definitely stare at it not considering the repercussions
1:38 when the music starts I get goosebumps everytime. Goddamn.
I really love Daniel Kayluuyas character in this because he’s a horse trainer he adapts learns and understand Jean jackets behavior pretty quickly
2:37 One of the greatest shots I’ve ever seen.
This scene was 70's Spielberg level awesomness. What a movie.
'Nope ' is - without doubt - the best film of 2022. And Jordan Peele is on fire!! Can't wait to see what he comes up with next!
Yep so true!
I don’t know about the best film of 2022
@@Comicedits39 If movies are meant to be entertainment then YES, itwas the best and most entertaining film of 2022.
Absolutely not. That has to go to Everything, Everywhere, All at Once
@@BlackWolf207 NO WAY.
I loved this: 2:00
This: 2:33
and mostly THIS: 3:03 Look at the size of JJ!
They really did great with the CGI for this movie.
The CGI looked realistic compared to whatever Marvel Studios has produced this year.
@@flarestriker2005 to be fair. Marvel has the general populace mind controlled at this point. They really don't have to make good movies anymore. They just have to deliver on fan service moments and people will come back.
@@ducasse8473 True, but that it's self is slowly decaying.
@@Follower-of-Jehovah-The-Lord21 I'd agree. But they deliver on certain shows every now and again so i doubt theyll ever totally lose their audience. The few people they lose right now will just come back for a later, cooler movie.🤷🏿♂️
@@ducasse8473 True honestly. GOTG 3, Ant-Man 3, Secret Wars, Kang Dynasty, and Fantastic 4 seems promising.
Absolutely love this movie. Seems like a homage to several classics. Yet it is also fresh. Close to my top 10 alien/ufo flicks.
2:28 i love how jean jacket comes down like that
Weeeeeeeee!
Michael Abels's future scores will be something to look forward to.
The scariest part of this scene is that you can tell that Jean is getting close because the screams insides digestive tract get louder.
Also the idea of the alien itself being a living UFO is pretty cool.
I don’t think Jean is an alien. I think he’s a creature native to Earth.
@@atas2561He'a just been flying in the clouds above our heads, and we never truly noticed until most recently (when this film debuted to theaters). I know a LOT of film-goers left the place after seeing this movie and not seeing the clouds/sky the same way again.
@@joshjess9841The Horror of The Heights is a short story about monsters that live high in the clouds. Maybe the UFOs that we see are really just things that live in the ocean and the sky.
An Organic Spaceship....... Fascinating.
It’s crazy how you can’t look it in the eyes and it looks like a eye 👁️
Does it even HAVE eyes? And if so what's the big deal if you're chimp yeah sure but that thing is massive looking at it is what should be expected
Jean Jacket looks like a hat too
@@dizzydino8600 or a Frisby
Where tf are it’s eyes
@@JavierEscuella1911 Jean Jacket’s underside is basically one giant eye
0:57 I think this moment proves how this movie can become one of the best horror of al time
This jumpscare is like nothing else, The creature breaks the scene appearing in the corner, synced with this innocuous but also terrifying sound effect and OJ immediately turn his head down
This is pure horror
Yes!
2:59 dam that horse must have hurt
In this one clip alone you have an immaculate display of sound design, score, VFX and cinematography..... and yet the academy felt that it was not worthy of a nomination for any of those categories
That score is so fantastic. Gave exactly the right vibe to this scene
0:11 god the trumpets in the song make it feel like something from a jaws film and i absolutely adore it
The soundtrack for this film is the best I’ve heard in a while
3:19 Jean jacket creates sonic boom as she breaks sound barrier
Did u just assume its gender?
@Davidandjacob you never know tbh, it's never said its an alien. So really, like almost anything on Earth there's probably genders
@@Daiin0 💀
@@Daiin0 it's an alien
@@Daiin0 Jellyfish, which JJ is based off of don't have sexes, they reproduce through budding.
The way OJ waited for Jean Jacket to eat a colorful thing and spit it out before then putting his hoodie up so he’d look like one is so smart!
The way antler looks out of the camera and at the cloud is just perfect
The moment he lost his sanity
@@mentlinc He's an artist. Gotta get that last ideal impossible shot, even if it kills him.
More epic with a horse than a vehicle
0:57 this scene in theaters got me good ! The subtle pan to the left and strum of the violent with his swift head turn got me good !
Jean Jacket is actually fkin scary. Imagine that massive thing dipping at you. Jesus Christ.
This is the scene that made me go from really liking this movie to loving this movie.
Same. Was already interested by the UFO and Gordy plotlines and hooked after the twist of Jean Jacket is revealed, but yeah this scene with it swooping down was awesome.
Iconic, show-stopping, beautiful, amazing. Not a single other creature feature compares.
There are so many gorgeous shots, camera movements and set-pieces in this film and in combination with the sound design and story/theme, I was floored
Even the sky’s are gorgeous
Normal aliens: “your nukes are child’s play they don’t even make us flinch”
2:57 Jean jacket after seeing a kite: *scared 1000*
Definitely some outstanding visuals in this film
I would not have expected so much of this movie to be filled with action because it’s marketed and is a horror movie
I have an unlikely theory about Jean Jacket.
Simple: It becomes what it eats.
Not like visually, but mentally. It doesn't like to be looked at, and if you see how OJ and Em got fired, it was because Scorpion King was shown a reflection of himself, which made it look like Scorpion King was being looked at.
Another thing: Since it ate humans, it learns. You know how you don't like a food someone shared with you, and when you have the option to try it again a couple days later, you know you still don't like it? Same thing applies with the colored flags that Jean Jacket doesn't like. He first ate the horse statue with the flags, and it caused him to vomit all the contents and people from the Star Lasso Experience. He saw it again when OJ pulled it out behind him, and Jean Jacket completely flipped to it's side to get out of the way.
Jordan Peele to Devon Graye: Act like you’re being mauled by a wild animal in a big dark cave
Devon: ok 0:55
it's like JJ needs an excuse to eat you. it will create situations to make prey look at it. Which shows how intelligent JJ really is.
I disagree, it just makes itself a spectacle to be looked at; it's only a biological directive. For example, a frilled-neck lizard isn't intelligent for knowing its frill makes it look bigger.
I actually don't think that's what it's doing- it's making a threat display. It's trying to scare OJ as a challenge. If he looks at it, he's challenging it for dominance. If not, he's being subservient. JJ doesn't seem to view humans as prey; I think we're too small. It only attacks us if we challenge it, and its only method of attack is eating. Note how it doesn't care if the horses look at it, it'll eat them anyway. I think large mammals are its actual prey.
Am I the only one who says that Nope is a kaiju horror film?
I mean hey, we got a giant monster with insane abilities causing destruction to people. So uhhh, I guess we can say that this is a kaiju film.
Goddammit if this isn't the coolest sci-fi cowboy scene in all of cinema history now and forever
One of the best "invasion" movies to ever be made.
The movie that single-handedly revolutionized aliens
The disembodied screaming was the most terrifying part of the movie for me
A year before the Mario movie, Universal made their first good Nintendo movie in the form of this good Kirby movie.
Jordan peel made the classic ufo believable and admittedly scary
OJ and lLucky survived at the end because Jean Jacket didn't eat them. When JJ swallowed the Jupe balloon the inside was quiet. No screaming. OJ and his horse were quiet and tired at the end because they ran all that distance to check on Em.
There’s actually a sound que when they’re doing the “eyes on me” and you can hear the horse scream. There’s a lot of cool tricks like that where either the score or the sfx will call back to something. While I hope that sound que was just meant as a subtle way to trigger horror, it does add to to the Out Yonder ending. Also love the color grading pops those letters very “unnaturally”. They purposely emphasized those letterings while keeping OJ and Lucky still foggy
@@ellatino55 I figure that poor Lucky finally got a good look at Jean Jacket, which made him scream out. To me the scream was misdirection on Jordan Peele's part. So was the "Out Yonder" sign and the fogginess in the scene. Peele has said he wants the audience to reach their own conclusion about OJ and Lucky's fate, but for me the fact that we didn't hear them screaming inside JJ was the kicker. That told me they made it.
@@madcat4301 Watch the Nope Distracting Jean Jacket scene. You can hear 2 horse screams and what sounds like a low crushing sounds. No more screams after that. It’s distant so you’ll have to listen carefully but it’s there. It’s the shot where she’s on the bike trying to start it. She’s holding back tears and screams “come on!”. She’s trying to get the monsters attention to follow her.
@@ellatino55 Nah, that's just Lucky freaking out (this wasn't her first encounter with JJ) and general JJ noises.
Consider: -JJ doesn't make any sudden moves towards OJ in the lead up to those sounds
-there was no reason for OJ to stop backing away
-this is a Jordan Peele film. He wouldn't have a horse named "Lucky" if she wasn't, you know, lucky.
@@gifgoldblum7940 it’s kept ambiguous for a reason, but that sound effect is basically the Pavlov effect and it’s the only real clue we get as to what happened. There are no clues they survived other than the ambiguity of them in the fog, Out Yonder. Which is also a clue to their death. Every animal in the title card is also killed. The idea of the hero dying is also a very post-western trope. You can say they live, but there are enough deliberate and subtle filmmaking clues. But death of the author. The intent is definitely to have it ambiguous. Atleast one editor expected them to die, which is why we get that sound.
The screaming is genuinely terrifying.
1:12 *shwoomp
Bro got eviscerated
2:00 is it just me or did the composer purposefully make reference to the tripod alien from war of the worlds
1:56 you can notice OJ and JJ looking at each other while JJ flies into the clouds
You can hear the biker screaming 😱
His whole body is broken and he’s swallowed by an alien who’s also squeezing the life out of him as he swallows him. 🫣😰
Yeah until 1:24 where JJ crushes him
I like how as the movie progresses, particular in this scene, we see more and more of JJ's soft tissue, which makes its organic nature more evident
1:11 cursed cowboy hat
2:40 are we seeing in jj's vision or something
Never even considered that. Yeah, u might be right.
Would've been a cool visual affect, imo, if they added a dark blurry effect at each corner of the camera to emphasis further that this is what JJ itself sees when it's roaming about in it's saucer/hunting shape.
@@joshjess9841for me personally if they did at an effect it should have been an orange colour since that what’s seen inside of JJ’s stomach so personally it should’ve been orange but I think I’m fine with just a clear visual since and predator like JJ wouldn’t have blurry eye sight and would need to see perfectly to do what it does.
I seriously love this movie. It’s brilliant, but I do wish we could have seen some of Jean jackets transformation.
You mean like if it could change & morph it's shape in more ways than the intimidation form we see it take near the end?
You wanted to see it take more like an "Alien" form?
0:08 THAT SCORE BY ALAN SILVESTRI BIT THERE IS AMAZING! Well if it's Silvestri.
Michael Abels, however Peele, whom had this movie inspired by the adventure horror movies like Jaws, made Abels do music in the styles of Silvestri and John Williams.
@@Shanethefilmmaker makes sense
