My film teacher had us watch this in class and use it to analyze story structure because it's so simple with its story but it does it so effectively and plainly that it's a great example of why story structures like the aptly named Save the Cat are studied so much. This story knows what it wants to be about - a dying woman going to get the last slice of pizza - and it doesn't stray from that path. It never tries to trick you or thinks it's smarter than you, and because of that it's one of the most effortless horror movies to watch. Even the jumpscares respect the audience, like the one at 8:30 that I noticed when watching it in class and I KNEW you'd point out. It didn't hide the aliens, it just didn't draw attention to them until it was important.
The Quiet Place movies are proof that movies don't need to be unique, they just need to be good. All three movies are nearly identical in tone, plot, cinematography, and premise, and yet, because the emotional core of the film is intact, each new installment is more than worth a watch.
After playing through Road Ahead it has really made me a fan of this franchise and the Death Angels have quickly became my 3rd favourite alien monster in cinema
A lesser film might have had Sam and Eric get together romantically, but fortunately, that's not what happens here. Their platonic bond is solid, and to add a romantic plot would be unnecessary.
9:28 I don’t know any movies about animals surviving an apocalypse but I do know a webcomic called Scurry, about mice surviving during what seems to be a nuclear winter.
Hey man, just wanna say, I really appreciate the efforts you put into this channel, when someone actually ENJOYS what they do I think it really shows. I can tell that your passion for what you do motivates you to put out some absolute BANGERS, so keep it up man :)
Here's a thought, would it really be accurate to call this universe post apocalyptic? First two movies are set in the countryside and day one is set in, well, the first couple of days. We dont know the status of everywhere else, there's possibly a huge number of people living on islands after evacuating. Hell, maybe Hawaii was untouched for all we know
For islands, I feel that they would still experience a lot of apocalyptic symptoms. Hawaii has to import a lot of food and goods daily. I think that could be a cool concept for a short film but idk if it would work for the main movie series due to the lack of death angels.
That's something I've also wondered about apocalypse stories. We have all this media showing us how regular people survive and adapt... well, where are the professionals in all of this? Where are the survival experts? Where are the Marines and SEALs and other highly trained combat forces? Hell, where are the Boy Scouts? One of the first things any military is going to do is share information about a new foe, and one of the first things the world will figure out about the Death Angels is that they're attracted to sound; therefore, one of the first things that will happen is the militaries of the world will figure out how to exploit that advantage; like as not using distractions, such as disposable radios. I think it would end up being not dissimilar to the first part of the "Last of Us" game, where we saw a large pocket of human survivors essentially being corralled by a military organization. Once militaries figure out what to do, they would start doing it, and that probably includes - as you mentioned - relocating people and supplies to islands, like Hawai'i. Though, while the engineer in me would genuinely love to see a story about a group of humans using cleverness to overcome a superior foe (or maybe I just remember when the 90's were a thing), I recognize that the more compelling stories tend to lean more heavily on tragedy.
I’d say yes, in how the Planet of the Apes universe has movies explaining how Apes got smart and Humans became primal. In each movie after Rise-, they go into detail on how the humans are going through great lengths to keep in contact with each other, possibly implying apes hadn’t taken over as much in curtain locations.
Boats would be an interesting option. Sure, they can be loud, but they also can be away from land. Oceans and other bodies of water can be loud, drowning out other sounds.
This must be a hard film to watch for cat lovers, they'd be worrying about Frodo the entire time. Also, Lupita Nyong'o was apparently petrified of cats prior to filming, but grew to adore her two feline costars who played Frodo. 😻
As someone whose cat passed away a few years ago, Sam's farewell letter about taking care of Frodo got me GOOD. I was my cat's favorite person, and if I had to involuntarily leave my cat behind, I would 100% make sure that my cat was taken care of. They truly are the best.
I love when universe introduce creatures and for the most part they're all the same and then at some point BAM some ridiculously sized or different looking version pops up. It makes sense to have a much bigger one, there are massive humans compared to some and I'm sure the death angels are the same
I’ve only watched this movie once since my original viewing in theaters - same with all of the movies in the series- because as with the first, the way I cried so hard was too much for me. Such simple story lines but such masterful pieces about humanity and love. Ugh so damn good.
That walking scene still makes me angry. They said “go to the bayside there’s a boat don’t miss it.” I was like okay let’s go that way, and then all these people came walking out, like okay let’s go. Then I heard how loud it became, like all of y’all haven’t been in a school hallway before!
Oh great, I cried when I saw this film on a flight last month, and now I've cried again watching this flipping video... And yes, this might be* the best one! *is
So stoked for this one my dude! Thank you for the calling out of just how ridiculous a lot of people are about things in movies being “consistent” and if there’s the tiniest of what they perceive to be a “plot hole” &/or any deviation of the way they quantify aspects of lore they lose their freaking minds over it, it’s sad really, movies should be experienced not nitpicked to death…I swear some people seem to go to see a movie for the sole purpose of looking for “mistakes” especially when sequels are concerned ffs! 🤦♀️😮💨👍😉
Also…somehow forgot to add that…this was another awesome video my dude!😉👍 I recently started to go back thru your older content and I cannot believe it’s been that long that I’ve been watching these vids!🤷♀️
As always stellar content!❤ Your insights and dives into these movies are always welcome. I especially love your bit at the end, I too feel like people spend more time trying to point out where movies are mistaken or where they have broken some hard set rule that people have built up in their own heads, rather than actually enjoying the stories and artwork that has been created. This hurts not only their enjoyment, but I feel as though it chips away at our social consciousness as a whole. So thank you for always being that light that is so necessary and so rare❤
8:17 yeah, and if you’ve got a big cluster of people all walking in one direction, you can tiptoe as lightly as you want, but it’s gonna make some sound.
This is a worthy spin-off of the franchise with great suspense and character depth. Lupita And Joseph shined here and Frodo Is The MVP. Can't wait for Part III.
Had the pleasure of watching this in it's world premiere. It's simple, in a good way. Like, it doesn't try to reach an insane level of grandeur nor is it cliche & formulaic. It's a story about a dying woman using her final days to live.
I love, LOVE the Quiet Place series. Hearing more of the themes and teachings the film was going for just makes me smile and even nearly tear up. I love the Aliens. I adore the designs, I adore the fact that, despite having weaknesses and being physical and stuff, they're still horrifying and dangerous to deal with. Also THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH for discussing the hearing thing everyone argues about. I myself adore the fact that louder noises masking smaller ones idea that you showed with the generator and fabric ripping. It very much makes sense when being described and even shown. I hope they make more films and I can't wait to see that world expand to new heights.
you'll probably never read this but you mentioned watching animals in an apocalypse living their lives. You should check out the movie "Flow". It's an animated movie with no dialogue about animals trying to survive after a flood.
another thing people seem to forget is that this is a prequel: it's before everything else, so not knowing the "rules" is to be expected for those who are now living through it at the start.
One thing that always bothered me was people saying "Oh, a quiet place... of getting pizza". I went with a friend to watch the movie and we both understood the value that a simple slice of pizza had for Sam and seeing people judge it for that and calling it mid just gives me a tick in the eye
I'm not sure if you meant that John made this movie too, but just so you know, he didn't. It was another director, that I can't remember the name of right now, and I'm too lazy to look up because I'm on my phone. But it wasn't John.
One of my favorite things about this movie is how it doesn't do the whole "Noble man sacrifices himself to save the damsel in distress." Instead, they do the exact opposite. Sam ends up sacrificing herself and saving Eric... and Frodo the cat 😁
As an owner of 5 cats I can safely say they would all die within 10 minutes of the start. Also, I got so stressed at the beggining of the movie thinking the cat would die horribly I had to pause to look up whether he dies or not.
It's so infuriating talking about this movie and hearing "why don't they just XYZ?!??!" "Why doesn't the military just do XYZ?!?!" 1.) in this movie vs the 1st and 2nd, the death angel numbers are so drastically different to where it goes from certain death to manageable means clearly their numbers were thinned out 2.) they hit the largest populated areas first, aka the spots that have the biggest military which means they were the first to go down in less than a week 3.) the military in this movie was actually surprisingly competent for even being able to figure out the water and sound and use that to try and coordinate evacuations. Our military never would've used that kind of strategy and the people certainly wouldn't be cooperative enough to even follow it 4.) how in the hell are they supposed to know that "quiet is good and sound is bad except for this one type of sound which is actually good". If you went to a general and presented that idea you'd be shot on sight 5.) it's crazy how so many people think that nuking/bombing everything as soon as it happened would've been the best and most rational decision when it happened without even considering evacuation People who criticize this franchise often criticize the parts that prove they have no concept of media literacy and "if a character doesn't do what I would do then it's bad writing"
People kinda hate on these because they got popular immediately (also people love nitpicking movies instead of enjoying/thinking forward a bit) and I'm glad you point out a lot of the full panic reactions that people have to fight against to survive. While I may not 100% agree on some points, you articulate your view so well however I cannot believe you think pizza is MID?!
I don't have a big noise issue in the movie, just imagine whether or not you hear someone call your name, but I need to know how the plethora of sky watchers just stood around and didn't say anything about a jillion meteors incoming??
All of the complaints I saw of this movie were: “it’s too samesy” “it’s too different” and “it’s too boring.” I really don’t understand how people just don’t understand movies.

This is so important!!!
This is actually crazy, I just finished watching this film for the first time less than 5 minutes ago and then I see this, so excited for this!
The algorithm hard at work
Dude, enjoy!!
9:28 I don’t know any movies about animals surviving an apocalypse but I do know a webcomic called Scurry, about mice surviving during what seems to be a nuclear winter.
16:25 going back to the angels showing up from where you least expect there is one underneath the dock reaching for Eric and Frodo
Man. Being in Withdraw AND Pain during a horrific experience like this would make it 100000000x more brutal.

K...
Honestly, best movie of the series so far. They're all great, but this one is my favorite
Here's a thought, would it really be accurate to call this universe post apocalyptic?
First two movies are set in the countryside and day one is set in, well, the first couple of days.
We dont know the status of everywhere else, there's possibly a huge number of people living on islands after evacuating. Hell, maybe Hawaii was untouched for all we know
For islands, I feel that they would still experience a lot of apocalyptic symptoms. Hawaii has to import a lot of food and goods daily. I think that could be a cool concept for a short film but idk if it would work for the main movie series due to the lack of death angels.

well i guess its just apocalyptic not pre or post current
This must be a hard film to watch for cat lovers, they'd be worrying about Frodo the entire time. Also, Lupita Nyong'o was apparently petrified of cats prior to filming, but grew to adore her two feline costars who played Frodo. 😻
She also went on to adopt a cat named YoYo! Her feline costars completely changed her view on cats! It’s so adorable.
10:51 Pizza is what? mid? Are you good bro? we boutta fight?
20:44 WHAT THIS? WHAT THIS? I can’t believe my eyes I must be dreaming!
I really liked this film, the horror parts were a setting and back drop to a story about life and memories and human connection and I loved it.
This is such a gorgeous film - beautiful performances, moving story, entertaining suspense. Lupita is exceptional.
10:46 Those are fighting words my guy
Absolutely 😂
I'm glad this was literally the first comment when I opened the comment section, because HUH!? Pizza is MID!?? That's a crazy take
This movie is great based off the simple fact that they saved the cat, gotta be honest
NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS!!!!! I cant wait for the next one now! But this was a great movie and a better breakdown!
Week 200 of asking for Everything Great About Dead Man's Chest
I don’t think he’s going to do it because of Johnny Depp
I SECOND THIS
Lmao 😂 legitimately made me laugh tho I’m not entirely sure why 😉👍 but I’ll second that request my dude!

11:20 I've seen this movie so many times and every time Erik reads "but not now..." I get chills.
One of my favorite movies of this year
I love when universe introduce creatures and for the most part they're all the same and then at some point BAM some ridiculously sized or different looking version pops up. It makes sense to have a much bigger one, there are massive humans compared to some and I'm sure the death angels are the same
Is next week’s film Nightmare Before Christmas or Corpse Bride? I think it’s one of those.
One simple limitation does wonders for creative writing, and the best part about this series is how it conveys stories without telling us.
I’ve only watched this movie once since my original viewing in theaters - same with all of the movies in the series- because as with the first, the way I cried so hard was too much for me. Such simple story lines but such masterful pieces about humanity and love. Ugh so damn good.
Loved this movie!
I wanna see baby death angels
I wonder if a person could physically beat a bitty baby death angel.
That walking scene still makes me angry. They said “go to the bayside there’s a boat don’t miss it.” I was like okay let’s go that way, and then all these people came walking out, like okay let’s go. Then I heard how loud it became, like all of y’all haven’t been in a school hallway before!
Yellow jackets! You should watch it!
Oh great, I cried when I saw this film on a flight last month, and now I've cried again watching this flipping video...
And yes, this might be* the best one!

Pizza.. is mid. I can only guess you've never had good pizza to make you utter such blasphemy.
Speaking of Lupita Nyong'o, I hope you do Wild Robot. I feel like it's going under the radar
16:37 also new meme template right here
I was so not expecting this film to be so good
8:17 yeah, and if you’ve got a big cluster of people all walking in one direction, you can tiptoe as lightly as you want, but it’s gonna make some sound.

Next Time A Fan Favorite and Cult Classic: The Nightmare Before Christmas
@ 12:32 it actually looks to me like she's grabbing Frodo's scruff, likely to keep him calm or at least quiet, works for me either way
All time favorite movie out of the quiet place franchise
Joseph Quinn being able to go toe-to-toe with Lupita says everything about his talent.
Stray is such a beautiful game!
27 seconds ago is crazy
5:03 They could probably hear creaky floor boards because most people were gone and the noise of life had gotten a lot quieter
I saw the spider at 20:43 and I thought to myself, "What's this?"

Three main characters? I counted four.....Frodo rocks!!
PIZZA IS MID!?!?!?!?
One thing that always bothered me was people saying "Oh, a quiet place... of getting pizza". I went with a friend to watch the movie and we both understood the value that a simple slice of pizza had for Sam and seeing people judge it for that and calling it mid just gives me a tick in the eye
This movie blew me away in theaters, as did the other two when I saw them on the big screen, krasinski has really mastered his craft
I'm not sure if you meant that John made this movie too, but just so you know, he didn't. It was another director, that I can't remember the name of right now, and I'm too lazy to look up because I'm on my phone. But it wasn't John.
This on surpised me tbh. It was way better than I thought it would be. Its the best of the 3 imo.
We love a heroic cat character. Frodo MVP.
9:28 Read the comic Red Rover Charlie its close to what you're looking for.
One of my favorite things about this movie is how it doesn't do the whole "Noble man sacrifices himself to save the damsel in distress." Instead, they do the exact opposite. Sam ends up sacrificing herself and saving Eric... and Frodo the cat 😁
"Noble man sacrifices himself to save the damsel in distress."
They haven't made any films like that in over a decade
