It was already killing humans. At the very beginning you can hear the missing hikers they mentioned in the radio screaming in the clouds. It was their stuff it dropped out that killed their father.
This is actually a genius movie idea. They took one of the most basic horror movie tropes, aliens, and removed the entire idea of them being dangerous due to they're intelligence and made it a freakishly large animal. That's genius! It still maintains all the scary mystery of "what can it do?" because it's an alien, while also making it a threat for entirely different reasons. love it!
Except the movie sucks and is just so confusing overall. Later in the movie it becomes some big blanket monster thing which is never explained. Smart aliens > whatever the fuck that thing was
This comment is just stupid. UFOs aren't dangerous because they're intelligent. They're dangerous because they abduct people. It's a threat for the same reason all UFOs are threats. It abducts people. As for what it can do, I don't know. Maybe it can do what all UFOs do: abduct people. Generally, people add all reasons behind why UFOs abduct people. The classic interpretation is human experimentation. This movie basically makes it "the UFO was hungry." It's unique but "genius" is kinda funny.
Peele had the actors first scream like they were on a Rollercoaster. Then he told them to scream like they were being murdered. He combined the two. That's what you hear when they're being digested.
This movie uses primal fear in a way nothing else has. Instead of “spooky monster running toward you” being called primal, this actually doss it. There is no fight with hands or weapons, instead you’re in a hunting ground of something 1000x bigger then you and you’re put in the prey position without an ability to turn around and become a predator home alone style. It’s the best rep of primal fear I’ve ever seen
If it didnt work so well id say it was a bit too on the nose with the chimp scene showing you first hand how unknowable and savage nature is when it puts you in front of something that could twist you inside out like we would wrench a towel. The slow digestion though, fuck me im going to struggle with that for a while.
and like the jurassic park animals, its not some 'unstoppable threat' in totality but it would be somewhat difficult to fight. thinking anti air machine guns would do the trick. mainly cause missiles might not operate properly and could be disabled by its field.
There are countless books, comics and movies with giant monsters that eat people without them being able to do anything about it Nope's originality comes from the subversion of expectations regarding the UFO genre
An alien saucer being the predatory alien itself and not a ship is a frightening concept to think about. Though apparently it’s no match to a helium balloon in the end.
After seeing this, what Nope did seems like how a bait and switch should be done in cinema. Everything about the marketing made it out to be a fairly classic UFO abduction story. None of what was shown was then a lie, because even within the context of the film, it was thought to be a UFO initially as well before they come to realize that it's not an interstellar ship, but an interstellar creature, which changes the context of the film, turning it from a UFO/alien abduction movie into a monster movie.
I like how realistic they made the reaction to the alien. Because let’s be honest, most people would whip out their phones and possibly profit off of an alien encounter rather than doing something heroic, like in most movies, to save the human race
yes, the movie theme was symbolism of the movie industry and what lengths people go to get rich. the embodiment of that annoying guy on the bike and the man risking his life for the perfect shot (shows someone would die related to their craft). love this movie. especially the monkey scene and the alien sucking up the people.
If I’m being Fr, I would probably take a photo then show it to all my friends with a caption along the lines of: “Yo look at this weird thing I just found” I don’t like uploading cool things I found for clout but I know for a fact I wouldn’t try to mess with it.
@@gigiearth it isn’t commentary on the movie industry necessarily though, it’s commentary on human nature in an era where conspiracies are so readily available and morbid curiosity or recklessness subjects people to horrors they shouldn’t have bothered with. profiting off of said horror though yes is also part of it
the most terrifying part is the digestion scene, and the fact that they are in there for so long still alive slowly dying just sounds like the worst way to go
and then that moment of pique from the monster (right before it rains blood all over the house) when it specifically squashes the remnants. YOu can kind of her popping noises 🤮
I watched this movie completely blind. Never heard about it before, never saw the trailers, didn't even know the genre or the fact that it's a jordan peele movie. I just went to the theater alone and randomly picked this one. And god, I came out really satisfied by what I just watched
I didn’t go in blind, but when I first watched it, my was I surprised to see a bloody chimp in a show set. (In case you aren’t aware, the trailer doesn’t mention the Gordy scenes)
I walked into this movie blind too and i loved it. Also when me and my friend were leaving the theater our car wouldn’t start cause the battery died😆 it was perfect
JJ DOES have an eye. It's located inside of it's mouth, you see it a few times during the film. It's the green block at the end when it unfurls. The reason it react aggressively to eye contact is because it eye is in it's mouth, so it relates it to hunting. It also didn't originally relate humans as a source of food. Jupe had been feeding it for a while, which habituated it to humans. JJ knew that where there were humans, there would be food. It's the same as people feeding bears and later getting mauled for upsetting it for one reason or another.
JJ did eat humans before though. There is a radio talk show at the begin that talks about some missing hikers. It ate them and that killed their father in the beginning.
Something I never saw anyone point out is how at the start horses where being used to lure the alien then the alien started using horses to lure the humans.
@@totallytubular8760 Im not sure if this is what they mean but what im guessing is at the start somewhat,the people were using the horses as baits cause they assumed that the alien likes to eat the horses so they used that to their advantage to try and take a picture . Near the end when the alien ate all the people in the stadium though,it left the horse and the black guy came to investigate. The alien used the horse as bait to catch the attention of the guy so when the guy got near the horse,we saw the alien trying to digest the guy is what im getting (im not good at explaining)
8:50 using pigs wouldn’t work as bait, pigs’ necks limits their upward movement so they physically cannot look up, that’s why you see a pig on top of the entrance of Jupe’s theme park.
That was definitely one of the smartest moves to make. Tricking it into swallowing a helium balloon was genius and I most likely would have never thought of that.
Unfortunately Helium is not explosive at all, it's a nobel gas that will not do anything. That is why it's so safe to use in balloons. Seeing the explosion my guess is the balloon was filled with Hydrogen, just like the Hindenburg....
I like how Jordan Peele fooled everyone into thinking that there was aliens inside the UFO but then dropped a huge bombshell by revealing that the UFO IS the alien, greatest plot twist ever imo
I saw it coming it was a feeling and the way flu it was reckless still a great film loved all the hidden meanings after I research them good film decent
@@CrimsonFKR damn you have no idea what subjectivity is. People are afraid of different things. Also you aren't cool because you weren't fazed by it. You seem very upset. Have you escaped from your group home?
Realistically after all those people went missing with no trace from the park, there would be a media frenzy. A bunch of search and rescue teams scouring the area, assuming families of the missing would be desperate to find their missing family members. Military would investigate on that alone, helicopters/planes would be searching the area for the lost.
From the beginning of the movie there was a search going on for a group of hikers near the area, then after what happens at the park, media started showing up
@@tobiaslawrence8928 lol sorry bud but this monster ain’t going to win against the might of the USA army. A race of intelligence aliens would have a much better chance than an animal
The creature can 100% see through its body as it swaps focus between Em and OJ at the end. It definitely sees when OJ makes Eye Contact in the movie. Eye Contact is a huge part of the movie as OJ doesn't like to make Eye Contact with people. Eye contact was interrupted with Jupe and the Chimp with the table cloth. You weirdly skipped that whole bit.
@@midnighttrend1580 the shoe has many meanings. It saved jupe from making eye contact w gordy which would’ve killed him, it also was a metaphor for waiting for the other shoe to drop “the alien coming at him” , also could’ve just been in his head that the shoe was upright as some sort of trauma. (Kinda a theory of him making money off of the tragedy) There’s a lot of theory’s
Yeah but that's all symbolic stuff, good for the movie, but like, logically an alien organism would recognize food by shape and/or movement, not the small dots they have and whether or not those dots are pointed at it
I'd argue the opposite. If the creature's behavior is similar to terrestrial predators, it will stay out in the field and far away from the city because here the prey is seperated from the herd. It tries to stay as hidden as possible, and only reveals itself when it's certain that it can devour all animals present.
Well it started to associate humans with food because jupe was feeding it horses. It's like when people are told not to feed bears but do it anyway so the bear starts invading your campsite to try and find the food you've got stashed somewhere and accidentally destroys your stuff because Karen a few tents over gave it beef jerky. Same concept
Fun fact: *Jean Jacket* shares many traits with the Lovecraftian "Flying Polyp." Territorial, aggressive when looked at, and a few others. There is also lore (and youtube videos) for a "real" aerial phenomena called "sky serpents" that appear more like giant organic flying worms than anything mechanical, but also seem to house orbs of light or be made of orbs of light. Not disc shaped nor eating people but certainly what came to mind when we learn in the film the UFO is alive.
@Knight Owl "Reading" Lovecraft doesn't mean what you recall later was plagiarized. What would be the point to copy and paste comments from other places on the internet to another comment somewhere else on the internet, that isn't an ad?
How stupid do you sound all directors and producers know Lovecraft was a bound racist so why would this be the first thing you think about I'm pretty sure the writers didn't think about that at all matter fact I'm pretty sure it was something they wanted completely different from that tone
I was not expecting Jean jacket to eat everyone in the show, I was so surprised to see the digestion process. Jean jacket swooping down immediately after to try and eat OJ scared the shit outta me.
@@soarin64 they did though, from what I'm getting from the whole movie; the ranch is private property. That weird traumatized actor offered to buy the place which rarely happens with public property since the property's well public, plus we don't see a lot of people there. Now you're wondering why i'd connect private property to not a lot of people showing up, well tons of people love horses and of course they'd go to a public place to see the horses. Now what does the property being private mean? Those kids invaded private property which could've gotten them in a lot of trouble, don't forget they can't counter with the option of saying "that guy hit us!" Because they entered his property, in the middle of the night, and they almost made him have a heart attack which could've given the guy enough reason to sue the kids for just entering the property.
bro in the theater me and my friends were squealing because this video doesnt do justice to how scary it is. in the barn scene OJ heard a sound and quickly turned around. And at first you see nothing, but the camera doesn't shift away from the scene. I looked closer in the theater, and you can very faintly see the outline of one of the aliens crounching in the corner. I screamed "oh shit! look!" and pointed it out to my friends and when they finally saw, it slowly began to stand. It did it so slowly that it took a good 15 seconds. easily in my top 3 movies of all time just because of how it makes you feel. The screams of the people being digested, and the sound of the biker screaming "OH GOD" over and over again in absolute agony. It sends a chill down ur spine. Espacially since the UFO is absolutely silent when it moves. All you hear is people screaming from the clouds.
If you listen close in one scene of the movie, when they recognize the cloud that isn’t moving, OJ says “y’know I’ve probably been looking at that same cloud for the past six months.” and later on, Jupe says, “for the past *six months*, my wife and i have bare witness to an absolute spectacle.” meaning that that cloud was 100% JJ, and OJ was oblivious to it for those 6 months while he was selling Jupe the horses that would get fed to JJ.
Also, when OJ follows Ghost to try and save him and he spots the lights in the distance at Jupiter’s Claim, if you listen very closely you can actually hear Jupe rehearsing for the Star Lasso Experience, hence the presence of JJ.
Ok but seriously, the Star Festival scene freaked me the fuck out, and I had nightmares for days because of it. That being said, love the scene and how truly terrifying it is
@@craigbaker593 if you've been to the theater and saw it with the surrounding sound stereo, it was terrifying. If you didn't know, you literally saw the inside of Jean Jacket's (Aliens' name) stomach, it was marble color of orange, yellow, and a bit of red if I remember correctly, and you could see everyone being continued to getting sucked up and screaming
Little fun fact about the pigs is that in this scenario they have the highest chance of survival. This is all do to the fact pigs cant look up. It is impossible for them to do so with how their muscle structure is oriented. Had they used pigs as bait, nothing would really happen to them considering you have to be looking at the Jean Jacket for it to attack you. This would likely lead to more questions on why the pigs weren't taken like the horses. Though it could lead to the same conclusion that O.J. made about not looking at Jean Jacket. So it at least would possibly give us some insight on the behavior of our favorite flying saucer. That is probably why the only "survivor" besides Lucky the Horse is the pig that is on top of one of the buildings at Jupiters Claim.
Everybody talking about how unnerving the digestation scene is but I found the Gordy's home scenes way more unnerving and shocking. Especially after learning about the true story behind it (try looking up Charla Nash if you're interested in it).
@@razorionxvii638 it was Travis the chimp who mauled its owners friend who actually took care of him many times. This is why you can't trust a chimp ever
One thing you did get wrong about the movie is the scene where JJ is above the house and the car. The creature is not looking to eat them. It already ate 40/60 people and was satiated for a while. It came there to assert dominance by outing blood on the house and spitting the fake horse at theme. It’s still a wild animal but it is decently intelligent.
Jean Jacket wasn't able to eat those people because the horse statue was clogging its esophagus, that's why they were kept alive for so long and why it eventually spit them all out and then spit out the statue. It didn't get to actually digest those people. Later on when it eats people they stop screaming pretty quickly as they are digested.
I kinda want to see ya make a horror movie where the protagonist makes all the best decisions and still fails to survive. And it's in the "discovered footage" format
Basically think Speedrunner level 7 days to die nerd who is actually secretly fit, and a zombie prepper. Witness, but was not NEAR ground 0. Straps a GoPro to his head and tries to get his family out of the city using every back road and shortcut. Make it gory, intimate and heartfelt; and dying. Not a "sacrifice" death, just a "My family screwed up and I took the L" death.
I think the best way this would work is with a love craft creature. With the protagonist realizing at the end that this isn’t even something he can fathom. Like maybe a cool concept of going mad if you make long eye contact with it or a god monster he couldn’t hope to defeat.
@@alwest4472 yeah lol. But with the original poster’s idea. Like the protagonist does everything so well and so right that we actually believe he’ll win until the end. When we find out the twist and he goes mad.
That scene with Jean Jacket dumping blood and the remains of his victims over Oj and Esmeralda’s house while we can hear screaming knowing that those are still living people, still remains in my nightmares every few days. I love this movie!😁😁😁
I don't think it was avoiding it, Angel was just tied down to the ground and JJ gave up because it's an animal and may have assumed he was more secure than he was
@@generik7414 a piece of the barbed wire got caught in jean jackets digestive system, making him give up on angel and ultimately transforming out of anger/distress. It didn’t just get tired lmaoo
Great video, but there was one issue: Jean Jacket is indeed territorial. Seeing the “head down” scene was after the digestion of the 40 people, JJ was acting on aggression (this being stated by the characters soon after the encounter), not because it needed food. This is why at the end of the movie, Jean Jacket flares a weird green thing at the balloon, which JJ perceives as a threat (the balloon is making eye contact, flying above JJ, being followed by streamers which will “fuck it up”). This is a demonstration of JJ’s territorial behavior, as well as how JJ perceives threats and reacts to them (this behavior being inspired by real animals, such as birds and marine animals) :)
What I learned: Stay in a car. The heaviest thing the alien can eat is a horse so as long as your car is heavy and far enough away, you might be able to tire the alien out of chasing you or it may not see you
Guys please don't make tri-acetone tri-peroxide (TATP) it is roughly about 70% as powerfull as TNT but it is EXTREMELY sensitive to shock, friction, heat, static electricity and can degrade over time becoming even more sensitive, so handing it without being properly grounded or dropping it from a short distance could cause it to detonate or deflagrate dependent upon the quantity
I love the scene when jupe was offering the flyer to his show and a gust of wind ripped it out of his hand as if to say "NOPE" lol, also OJ finding the flyer in a pile of horse dung is a message in itself.
Oooo your observation of the wind is very interesting. I originally only saw it to be comedic but it could also be a personification of dread/uncertainty coming to life and, as you worded it, saying “nope” to OJ and Emerald. This movie still is so interesting.
4:07, well they kind of did this with those blowup swinging men (I don't know what they're called) that they use at car dealerships. They put a bunch of them on the field and if they stopped working they knew the creature was close, and based on the order in which they shut off, they knew what direction it was comming from
lmao..blowup swinging men has me laughing asf! There is an episode of "Family Guy" with a commercial selling those things that's hilarious. The salesman called them "Wacky Waving Inflatable Tube Men"... but blowup swinging men caught me off guard 🤣🤣
there are multiple themes in this movie that gets explored and looking into depth makes the movie all more better. for example: The Gordy scene, lots of people got confused by it but here's my friend's idea mixed with mine: Gordy was an animal used to be marketed, sorta like how Jean Jacket was marketed onto a jacket. Gordy was marketed as a unusual pet in that show, but it soon later backfired when he snapped and killed everyone. the shoe in that scene represents an unfortunate miracle, and is suppsoed to get your attention, telling you that you pay attention more to the shoe rather than the violence around it. sorta like Gordy, hes a danger but gets represented as a special character, getting your attention ignoring the fact that hes a chimp. so when he finally snaps, the realization finally kicks in and you see whats behind the curtains. this message is simply "dont meddle with nature for profit". On top of that, when Gordy went to fistbump Jupe, in that moment Jupe realized that he can control Predators. we see this with Jean Jacket herself, when Jupe is on screen, you can see on the back of his jacket that he has literally Jean Jacket imprinted on it, to be sold and marketed. this also sorta confirms that Jupe thinks that he can control predators, we've seen it with the stadium and look how that turned out. Gordy was supposed to be the small representation of Jean Jacket and why you shouldn't meddle with predators. this theme of control is present for most of the movie, like at the start, where The Movie Director was instructing OJ to do these things like "Spin", "Look here" and stuff like that, things you would say to an animal. But thats my interpretation, reply with your own, debunk or add on to this comment if you want too, i love reading other's interpretation for this movie.
This isn't against you, but I honestly don't see why people are confused about the Gordy stuff. It's clearly included to illustrate the theme. It's also legitimately terrifying. Also, before he starts his demonstration, Jupe (clearly delusional) mutters to himself, "You were chosen." He thought that he survived his encounter with Gordy because he had some kind of special influence, but it was something as simple as his eyes being covered by the tablecloth. So many people ignorantly want a spectacle, thinking they are special enough to control it, but then they find out they can't.
Damn, so let's see, This move was themed around control. But I can't remember what get out's theme was. Racism? And I completely forgot what Us message was. Can someone refresh my memory
@@Crimson_Screwball3446 get out I believe is a message of how black people/ the working class in general sell their bodies (bad backs, injuries etc in labour) to the rich, whilst the rich seemingly make it seem noble as they say black people have better bodies or something I don’t remember perfectly. Us I forgor
Jupe thought he was chosen bc of he was spared, but he missed the lesson. He too was a token like Gordy, and instead of learning, he did the same thing the producers did and ended up dying by the very thing that was supposed to bring them profit.
@@havoc108 no, M4 and AK-47 are both assault rifles, and they do the same thing, but helium and tri-aceton tri-peroxide dont do the same thing, and dont work even similarly to each other, plus the method of feeding it to the ufo was totally different, plus this guy said “the WAY you chose to beat the monster was ACTUALLY how they beat the monster” this sentence implies it was the exact same way, which it wasn’t
I'm a sucker for aliens, suspense and wild west aesthetics, so I absolutely loved this movie. And I know it's already been said by nearly everyone, but geez, I love the idea of the classic UFO being a living entity rather than a ship piloted by stereotypical grays or whatever.
I love how everyone has their opinion on how they would do better but it’s like. You. Had and advantage you were able to see the whole movie and the ending and you can create your own plan accordingly these character had no heads up or couldn’t skip to the end to find out they did their best
Exactly. This is why old phrases still need to be used. They don't know shit! about this thing in the sky, meanwhile this dumbass is like "OkAy, NoW We knOW It HAs A tAStE FoR HuMAnS". Walk in anothers shoes.
I love how you only describe the ways the characters can deal with their situation using only the information that they know, and if they don't have that information, you tell us the way in which they could have found it out, which makes it follow along with the movie much better. Great videos as always.
Kelsi Rutledge: Jordan wanted to make something that was still in the realm of scientific possibility. He had a clear vision for how he wanted the creature to look and then was hoping for certain elements. Like, “Is there anything like this that exists?” I think marine animals have freaky, weird attributes that provide great inspiration for alien-like things. When he was designing the eyeball, for example, he’s like, “I really want to do a square eyeball, but does that exist anywhere in nature?” It’s not very common, but octopus have this very square iris actually...
13:27 it would be a terrible idea to tie the horse to the stable stall or outside because in a panic the horses would sprint, as shown earlier in the movie and break its neck, killing it. I am speaking from experience when I type this to. Also, it is often very difficult to find a new field to put horses in never mind a whole ranch (also speaking from experience) then you have the high expense of paying for said ranch or field so it’s a loose loose situation either way unless you ride and camp until they find somewhere
First off, Yes, it is indeed a terrifying monster. But I have a feeling that an explosive device similar to a grenade or more powerful would be more than capable of killing or seriously damaging it.
@@crbuck3394 no need for heroic sacrifices. If the movie established that it would chase anything that "looked" at it, then setting up something like a scarecrow with dynamite would be enough to deal with it, since the nitroglycerin inside of it would explode on a harsher impact, thus solving the problem with zero casualties.
Yeah, this definitely isn't a "fate of humanity" situation when it was killed by a damn helium balloon, albeit it would still be a tragic event if it did go to a city because it would still kill quite a few people before being ultimately stopped
Just thought about it, if they got the footage to the military, it’s not like it’s hard for the military to deal with it. One aim-120 would take it out from miles away. Far out of reach from the aliens electrical disruption. Plus, f-15, f-16, and f-22 and 35’s are all hardened against EMP’s
Nah that isn't the case. Here is Peele's quote from an interview: “I was trying to let people figure that one out for themselves, you know?” said Peele. “So I wasn’t leaning into that but the cat’s out of the bag. We are talking about a UFO here and it is not of planet Earth and it also of course refers to how Black people - what we would say if we saw a UFO: ‘Nope.’ It’s like ... no extraterrestrial.” The kids are going to live for that,” said Palmer, 28. “Yeah, ‘Not of Planet Earth,’” said Peele. “You got it, OK?”
@@danwilliams2551 ahhh thank you for the clarification. I saw a article about it. It would’ve been really cool though to learn if it were predominantly from earth.
I guess it's lost on general audiences, but when he mentions the "Magic Hour," it's referring to dusk and is generally the BEST time to film anything. While Jean Jacket caused a lot of damage, it's entirely possible that some of the footage survived, especially if the digital footage automatically uploads to a Cloud-based server. As for what I'd do, I always thought the solution to beating Jean Jacket was getting it to suck up some sort of explosive device and then detonate it once it sucks it up. There's plenty of items civilians can get to do this, such as gunpowder. Use an extended timed fuse and double-prime it to guarantee it goes off when Jean Jacket sucks it up.
maybe that is why military didnt do anything, they wanted it to capture alive. But our heroes killed it. So probably the military was shaking their heads because of wasted opportunity. It was easy to trace anyway, because of its EMP like what the TMC reporter said. Cant find their location on the map. So i believe this already got the military attention already before it booms on the news.
I liked to imagine the reporter was trying to help and understand what's going on so he could help the team but now that I understand that he was gonna take credit I don't feel bad for him anymore
But if they used him as bait and word got out, they could be facing some legal troubles from the reporter's family, or the law if there are some Good Samaritan laws in the county.
@@Griffith_Here Well, he kind of destroyed that theory (being a help) early on when he started hitting Emerald with the pushy questions in his gossipy, TMZ tone. 😆
@@BPgamemaster12 I feel like they could avoid that though. Their primary objective was the picture of the alien. They don't exactly have to get a picture of it consuming someone. The reporter could just be bait in the sense that he's a distraction😅 and it's not like they even forced him either
You can tell that Cinema Summary is slowly losing his sanity as his ideas went from “Get undeniable proof of extraterrestrials” to “Pig IEDs” in the span of a few minutes.
Just so you know, the footage wasnt destroyed. The film camera is inanimate so it would get thrown up out and get destroyed, but the film tape would be fine. You just have to find the tape on the ground
While that's true, I'd be worried about the tapes within the camera receiving damage from the fall or being dirtied up by the sand. I'm no camera expert but if theres a chance to recover and fix said tapes then there may be a chance
@@kseg5076 The camera would be fine. Since the alien died before it could spit it out, all you need to do is get the government to dig it out or something. Found footage basically
@@LubbyDubbyWubDub Well actually the moment that hits sunlight. Its fucked. Thats why the film reel was changed in that special box in the movie. That was undeveloped movie film. Depending on the type of reel film anyways. Usually that will get destroyed by bright lights
@@HackerBilly13 On top of that, the spit in its mouth would ruin the footage, and that’s not even accounting for the fact that its digesting fluid would corrode the film.
the creature actually seems like it might have been a very rare earth creature that lives high in the atmosphere rather than an alien because all of its features and design inspiration
I wanted to see the star festival scene so badly but I could not find it on youtube... so I watched the movie myself to see the scene. I regret everything, it was truly horrifying to see them all die in such a way it terrifies me to think of the sounds and the screams inside jj. also the 2nd most terrifying moment in the movie to me was the one where jj vomited on the house but star festival takes the cake for most terrifying scene in a movie I've seen so far.
He didn’t survive. You can hear the horse screaming while they were being sucked up before it starts chasing em on the bike. Then at the end oj is saying hi to her from “out yonder” which means he crossed over and she’s just seeing his ghost.
Warning: Major spoilers for Nope (2022)While the real meaning of Nope may be difficult to understand on its first viewing, the movie does give viewers clues to the fate of its protagonist, secretly proving in a twist that OJ does survive the Nope ending. (on google)
He and the Horse survived that's why the Horses name is Lucky and one of the reasons to why JJ didn't get that horse because it was one of the "Lucky Ones"
I don't understand why some people keep saying he died based on screams? First off the horse made those sounds pretty much the whole time because the alien kept getting closer. Second the alien was making the sounds of the people it ate the whole movie even when it wasn't feeding, third the alien can only eat in saucer foarm, I thought that was pretty clear based on how he sucks things up, it wouldn't make sense for it to feed while it's in it's defensive form, even when it grabs the big blow up dude it doesn't actually suck it up and eat it untill it goes back to the saucer foarm. And finally kind of seems like they tell us OJ won't get eaten when the film dude talked about the purple alien didn't kill because the person was too tough
he did he did. and they showed a good reason why he did. jean jacket likely needs to be in its disk state in order to 'feed'. the folds of its body allowed it to suck up the prey and digest it. it can't 'eat' in its unfolded state and was likely an attempt to intimidate oj. Oj basically stared it down and intimidated it enough to not attack. it felt like it was at the disadvantage.
Bear is walking in the forest and finds another bear. That other bear is making hard eye contact. Taking it as a sign of agression, the bear attacks the other bear.
The scene where the kids were dressed as aliens creeped me out the most. I was both excited and freaked out finally seeing creepy aliens on the big screen but of course my disappointment is immeasurable my day was ruined.
@@Blossom-hd7rr well, the movie time and time again showed us that not looking at the monster works. While it not caring about that makes logical sense, the theory is just not supported by what we see on screen
20:00 you Curl up and protect your neck and soft parts if its a grizzly (Brown) NOT a black bear. Black bears you get big and get loud to try and frighten it. Grizzlies you curl up and look like less of a threat. Polar bears you get good with your maker because you're about to meet him.
I think the concept of "don't look at it" makes sense. It has clearly adapted to prey on things on the ground below and can identify "prey" through seeing the eyes.
i just watched this movie in cinemas today and was thinking "cinema summary needs to make a how to beat of this", so what a coincidence it was uploaded in the same day! other people spoke of this in the comments already, but yh, that scene where the people get sucked up will forever haunt me and i'm probably gonna have nightmares tonight. i think what added to the horror is not knowing wtf this thing is and it being so ambiguous in both the trailer and the movie (in the movie being its origin). thanks for the video!
The people inside the creature didn't bother me, but the crunch/silence after they were digested was another story. And them being bled onto the house later.
bro in the theater me and my friends were squealing because this video doesnt do justice to how scary it is. in the barn scene OJ heard a sound and quickly turned around. And at first you see nothing, but the camera doesn't shift away from the scene. I looked closer in the theater, and you can very faintly see the outline of one of the aliens crounching in the corner. I screamed "oh shit! look!" and pointed it out to my friends and when they finally saw, it slowly began to stand. It did it so slowly that it took a good 15 seconds. easily in my top 3 movies of all time just because of how it makes you feel. The screams of the people being digested, and the sound of the biker screaming "OH GOD" over and over again in absolute agony. It sends a chill down ur spine. Espacially since the UFO is absolutely silent when it moves. All you hear is people screaming from the clouds.
The craft in this movie was immaculate. Honestly though? I found Jean Jacket the alien to be beautiful and kind of funny. He reminded me of my betta fish… angry, territorial, puffs out when you look him in the eye. Gordy though? *CHILLS*. The scene where he looks at the camera activated my fight or flight response. I was seriously ready to bolt.
I disagree. Everyone knows him as cinema summary, I look up “cinema summary” when I want to watch him. People hate change, I think the rebrand is useless. The worst thing I think he’s doing is posting shorts, to me a channel posting shorts is basically a channel admitting that their channel is dead and they think their viewers are too dumb to realize they’re only posting shorts to try and get extra views. It’s basically the same as posting daily community posts. With all that said, thank you for coming to my Ted talk.
@Shadowyarts I disagree, but to understand why, you need to know a few things, so, my life started growing up in a small farm in northern Kansas. My father was a farmer and my mother was a cashier in our local town down the dirt road. We didn’t have much and income was very little, my best toy I got growing up was a pig bladder blown up like a balloon that I could play around with between me and my two brothers. At the age of 11 things started getting tougher in my house life due to my fathers drinking problem as it was not a good harvest that year. Like his father before him once he was done working he would come home and drink but unlike his father he wouldn’t beat us unless we messed up, his father left him and his mother to fend for themselves after world war 2 though so he had it tougher than me growing up. One time my father did drink too much and he hit my little brother Jamey. Jamey didn’t know what to do and ran away during the night during a storm. The entire family was out looking for him but we never saw Jamey again. This made my father drink more and lead him to take his life when I was at the age of 16. My older brother and me had to completely take over the farm with the help of our mom quitting her job as a cashier, life got very hard from here on out. We got a break when I was 18 with a good harvest we were able to save up some money. I was able to move out at the age of 21 and into a larger city in Tennessee. It was hard leaving the family as my ma was getting older but my older brother completely took over the farm and even expanded it into a more profitable work. I began working in what I was good at, repairing mechanics. I was a hard worker and moved up in my chain of work easily within my town. I dated aroun’ a bit but never settled down with anyone I would write home about for my first few years. When I was 26 I got a call from my ma, my brother was working with some machinery on the farm and got his hand caught in it and heavily damaged. I had to come home and help with the farm, at the time I had attained a high position as a senior mechanic within an auto shop and sometimes worked on the side with repairing electronics. I went home and had to help with the farm for a year, ma wasn’t doing good at all. She passed the next year due to kidney disease. My brother eventually recovered and I returned to Tennessee, I attempted to return to my position but due to the time I was out I had been long replaced. I had to begin to work from the bottom again when I had a client come in, she was the most beautiful woman I ever seen in Tennessee with gorgeous brown hair. Nice to say that we hit it off pretty well, within a few weeks we were dating. I can say that she was one of the best things to have happened to me in my life. At the age of 30 I married her and my first child was on the way then. I had returned to my previous position and bought a nice house near the mountains of Tennessee. At the age of 34 my second child was born. My two kids are now both in high school, one a freshman, another a Senior. I continued my career into more electronics working on computers and fixing them. In 2013 while googling how to fix a small problem with a motherboard I found a strange site named reddit.com, this website had all the answers I needed and a community always ready to help. I’ve been on the site ever since. And that's why I think shorts are just overall in my opinion subjectively not the best thing.
I fucking love how you just go into how to beat the "aliens off their ship" when its just some kids. The fact that its never brought up how these were just some clever fuckers.
that's one of the points of its design! it's supposed to be an intimidation tactic that either: 1. scares its prey 2. shocks/leaves the prey in confusion or awe so that the predator can better hunt the prey!
I would think that the last few years have shown how dumb people can be. It ate a lot of people before it came across some people smart enough to know how to defeat it. We never saw people shoot at it, so who knows if something like that would have even worked. But you'd best believe that'd have been the first thing people IRL would have tried. And gotten sucked up for their trouble. It took intelligence to defeat it, and that's something undesirable these days.
I not sure there's anything in the film that actually proves that Jean Jacket's species is from space or is an alien. In fact, the biblical quote at the beginning of the film coupled with the "many wings" version of angels, it could be said many sighting of these creatures have happened, but in the form of Angel and/or UFO sightings (or more depending on how the culture interprets it's open form).
I love how the beginning of the movie starts with a dude dying, being brought to the hospital, having a coin embedded in his brain and the hospital is like "nothing to look further into here! just an unexpected projectile embedded in a man's brain" and the entire event isn't looked into by anyone at all.
jean jacket did not purposefully murder the father. it had no reason to. it was just minding its own business and releasing the stuff it could not digest
Sure, some of these points have been reiterated, but some corrections to the context that the video seemed to miss or misread... 1. It already had a taste for humans, as evidenced by the hikers we hear in the first part, and it vomiting up their stuff. 2. What it DID develop a taste for was horses. The theme park owner was feeding it horses to "train" it into appearing for his show, and whether this plan was doomed to fail from the start or not was sealed because... 3. They fed it that fake horse decoy. It sucked it up, thinking it was food, only to find out it was an inanimate object. This PISSED IT OFF, which is why we see its behavior change and grow more aggressive during the latter part of the film. When he gets to the theme park, the horse is still there cause the creature is now avoiding eating horses cause it had been tricked into eating a fake one. It's also why it goes extra aggro when they try filming it cause it's the same area where it had been "tricked" so it's now trying to assert dominance by eating anything that moves. 4. Also, its eye contact response IS its hunting trigger; anything that can see it is marked as prey. While it's not a completely dumb animal, it's not high functioning on the level of a bear as it was compared to. Not looking at it is the right play, as we see repeatedly. It's not that it won't or can't eat the truck when he stays in it. It doesn't have a pair of eyes looking at it and therefore can't confirm if it's prey and, therefore, food. Also, playing up, it being a "threat to the entire human race" is a stretch in this case. There is a heavy implication it's not an alien and has always been around. It is nearly impossible to witness without being eaten due to its hunting patterns based on eyesight and the habit of keeping out of sight. Sure, it will wreak havoc on an area, but outside being confronted by a small under equipped group, it's not "that" much of a threat.
Of all the horror movies...this one seemed to have a lot more options. All the others I thought, I would be screwed. But I immediately thought, why not trick it into eating something you have attached some kind of explosive too. Also, why not just have cars/vans parked all over that you can duck into if it won't suck up a car?
well that's why this horror movie's goal ain't to kill the thing--that's easy. it's _securing the bag._ which is also, ultimately one of the main themes of the movie.
very possible. but it might be a case of what parts of it are redundant and what aren't. if you fail to destroyed it vital organs, it might just run off and regenerate. its intelligence would make it more cuatious afterwards.
Kinda have to watch it twice. 1st) Enjoy the thriller ride. 2nd) Connect the Dots. Jupe was at fault for trying to tame a Lovecraftian Alien never learned his lesson with the Chimpanzee Gordy. FYI he's been feeding that "UFA" from the Start for some time as Hikers, mysterious Accidents, Cattle & Horses start vanishing since it's Arrival.
Could have gotten an anti-tank bundle grenade, or a bunch and strapped them to a decoy with a string attached to pull the pin as hard as u possibly can. Make sure the grenade is taped onto the decoy as hard as possible and the decoy is heavy enough to not fall over
@@cosmicklampzy1222 nobody mentioned a store. also this movie is a universe where aliens exist, I'm sure you can find just normal grenades in a weapon store or find some old weaponry in your grandpas storages / basement
I love how in this one episode, all your smart planning is actually worse than what the movie does. By assuming that the aliens are smart and advanced, you wouldn't have given the plastic bait (which allowed them to learn they can damage it and repel it with UN-digestible foods and bright colored fabrics) and by replacing it with pigs as a decoy you would have endangered yourself with the explosives but the alien wouldn't have touched them (because they can't look up and therefore don't look at it in the eye). I know you said it doesn't make sense, but the creature does work like that, so sense or no sense it is how to beat it... A very interesting episode for sure
How to beat Nope: After dad dies Emerald: OJ, it’s time to close the family tradition and move to the city, start a new life OJ: NOPE!! Emerald: Dueces ✌🏽 *rolls credit*
the alien design is genius, it starts as a generic ufo and turns into a fucking titanic jellyfish also JJ does have an eye it’s just very hard to see, there are tiny spots in the rim of the ufo form early in the movie, you can see it in some shots
There is something that we still don't know about the TMZ guy's death. He had a helmet on.....his eyes weren't visible, then why does it kill him and not OJ who is right beside him. Does the mirror like finish of his helmet mess with its brain.......does the brief reflection of OJ's eyes on his helmet trigger it ?? Answer to this question IMO will give us more details about Jean Jacket's behaviour.
I also think it’s because animals typically don’t enjoy seeing their own reflection (example: lucky at the beginning of the movie). His helmet reflects everything around it so it easily makes him prey.
@@jbear3478 JJ was the name of a horse that the sister character was meant to tame. But their father had OJ do it last minute for the Scorpion King. So it’s referring to that when they decide on Jean Jacket.
actually a simple taser should work against the creature. the creature doesnt trip fuses so its more likely it causes problems for digital equipment (the bike runs on lithium batterys wich are usually connected to a chip to run safer/last longer) while the lights in the wishing well camera stayed alive and the camera still worked even thou it likely has a electric trigger.
@@taddad2641 but it doenst have much mass. its basicaly a jello fish after all. and yes there are jellofishes with eyes. they live in australian waters adn are known as chironex fleckeri or the asutralian box jello.
I literally just saw this movie with my friends and honestly I almost started crying afterwards. Don’t know why but I think it was due to the story as a whole and the amazing cinematography to make this amazing movie. It really made me think if I should take my film hobby and make it a reality.
The part you were wrong about is the fact that eye contact is key to the story , there are multiple scenes with the chimp and the horse at the start where they were provoked by eye contact, the animal relys on eye contact to gather its food, it uses the screams as a way to lure in eye contact
I honestly would've died laughing if I saw a reporter who fully knew there may be an alien around, and he goes to record it and dies in the process, it would've made me laugh.
I've seen enough of these videos to figure out how to live in a life or death situation but i honestly wouldn't do this smart stuff this guy advises in a terrifying heat of the moment.
20:47 just to let you know the tunnel like thing you see at the start of the film that is in the mouth acts as the creatures eye, so it can see who is looking at it from below.
I think a lot of people missed the point with Jean Jacket. Jean Jacket isn’t and Alien. Its a native species to Earth hence its extreme similarities to Jelly fish and other marine life and what would happen if those organism’s grew and became adapted to Earths atmosphere out of the ocean, hence also why other “saucer” sightings throughout history in the world of Nope were either Jean Jacket or other organisms related to Jean Jacket.
Have a damn good day.

It was already killing humans. At the very beginning you can hear the missing hikers they mentioned in the radio screaming in the clouds. It was their stuff it dropped out that killed their father.
I remember the screams, but I did not connect that to the missing hikers. That’s genius holy crap.

@@Comicedits39 I don't think you understand what common sense is. Occam's Razor maybe, but not common sense.
This is actually a genius movie idea. They took one of the most basic horror movie tropes, aliens, and removed the entire idea of them being dangerous due to they're intelligence and made it a freakishly large animal. That's genius! It still maintains all the scary mystery of "what can it do?" because it's an alien, while also making it a threat for entirely different reasons. love it!
Except the movie sucks and is just so confusing overall. Later in the movie it becomes some big blanket monster thing which is never explained. Smart aliens > whatever the fuck that thing was
Reminds me of another movie where this was done a bit better and earlier. It's not that well known but perhaps you've heard of the Alien?
@@dustingaethje1332 like alien from 1979 or a different movie called the alien?
@@lewisbrindly5020 small brain
This comment is just stupid. UFOs aren't dangerous because they're intelligent. They're dangerous because they abduct people. It's a threat for the same reason all UFOs are threats. It abducts people. As for what it can do, I don't know. Maybe it can do what all UFOs do: abduct people. Generally, people add all reasons behind why UFOs abduct people. The classic interpretation is human experimentation. This movie basically makes it "the UFO was hungry." It's unique but "genius" is kinda funny.
Peele had the actors first scream like they were on a Rollercoaster. Then he told them to scream like they were being murdered. He combined the two. That's what you hear when they're being digested.
Genius
That’s why the screams are sooooh eerie
Definently genius
“Weeee wooo hoooo!!”
Whoa that's amazing
This movie uses primal fear in a way nothing else has. Instead of “spooky monster running toward you” being called primal, this actually doss it. There is no fight with hands or weapons, instead you’re in a hunting ground of something 1000x bigger then you and you’re put in the prey position without an ability to turn around and become a predator home alone style. It’s the best rep of primal fear I’ve ever seen
I feel like this, the cosmic horror taking the form of animalistic violence, also the people being stuck in jean jacket alive is terrifying.
If it didnt work so well id say it was a bit too on the nose with the chimp scene showing you first hand how unknowable and savage nature is when it puts you in front of something that could twist you inside out like we would wrench a towel.
The slow digestion though, fuck me im going to struggle with that for a while.
and like the jurassic park animals, its not some 'unstoppable threat' in totality but it would be somewhat difficult to fight. thinking anti air machine guns would do the trick. mainly cause missiles might not operate properly and could be disabled by its field.
There are countless books, comics and movies with giant monsters that eat people without them being able to do anything about it
Nope's originality comes from the subversion of expectations regarding the UFO genre
@@yurilouback6331 we’re both right
An alien saucer being the predatory alien itself and not a ship is a frightening concept to think about. Though apparently it’s no match to a helium balloon in the end.
Bro everywhere
Bro why are you everywhere
Respect to the helium balloon 🤧🫡
It's you.
get a life holy sht bro
After seeing this, what Nope did seems like how a bait and switch should be done in cinema. Everything about the marketing made it out to be a fairly classic UFO abduction story. None of what was shown was then a lie, because even within the context of the film, it was thought to be a UFO initially as well before they come to realize that it's not an interstellar ship, but an interstellar creature, which changes the context of the film, turning it from a UFO/alien abduction movie into a monster movie.
And the black guys survive, this is very different and kept me guessing.
@@jessicao-o165 One died
I knew it was a living thing pretty early, one part where it turned sideways the skin or whatever was flapping in the wind
The movie kinda bad though it was close to unwatchable and not horror in any way
also the creature isnt even super smart. that jupe character likely learned of its pressence when the creature tried to eat a decoy horse.
I like how realistic they made the reaction to the alien. Because let’s be honest, most people would whip out their phones and possibly profit off of an alien encounter rather than doing something heroic, like in most movies, to save the human race
That's quite literally what the movie is about so it makes sense lol
yes, the movie theme was symbolism of the movie industry and what lengths people go to get rich. the embodiment of that annoying guy on the bike and the man risking his life for the perfect shot (shows someone would die related to their craft). love this movie. especially the monkey scene and the alien sucking up the people.

@@gigiearth it isn’t commentary on the movie industry necessarily though, it’s commentary on human nature in an era where conspiracies are so readily available and morbid curiosity or recklessness subjects people to horrors they shouldn’t have bothered with. profiting off of said horror though yes is also part of it
the most terrifying part is the digestion scene, and the fact that they are in there for so long still alive slowly dying just sounds like the worst way to go
And the voice lines you hear. A man screaming for help, a woman shouting that she's burning. And a child calling out for their mom.
@@monsterenergypunk also you can tell when they stop moving and the digestive acid hits them, it’s a crazy scene
and then that moment of pique from the monster (right before it rains blood all over the house) when it specifically squashes the remnants. YOu can kind of her popping noises 🤮
I feel like You should always bring any sharp object if You see a cloud not moving or a gun ?
On the bright side, that does at least theoretically give you a chance to escape or be rescued.
I watched this movie completely blind. Never heard about it before, never saw the trailers, didn't even know the genre or the fact that it's a jordan peele movie. I just went to the theater alone and randomly picked this one. And god, I came out really satisfied by what I just watched
Nice
I didn’t go in blind, but when I first watched it, my was I surprised to see a bloody chimp in a show set. (In case you aren’t aware, the trailer doesn’t mention the Gordy scenes)
I did too and holy heck was I surprised lol
@@HappyHappy-oe8sf I think Gordy scenes never being shown outside the film itself is a brilliant move.

JJ DOES have an eye. It's located inside of it's mouth, you see it a few times during the film. It's the green block at the end when it unfurls. The reason it react aggressively to eye contact is because it eye is in it's mouth, so it relates it to hunting.
It also didn't originally relate humans as a source of food. Jupe had been feeding it for a while, which habituated it to humans. JJ knew that where there were humans, there would be food. It's the same as people feeding bears and later getting mauled for upsetting it for one reason or another.
How in the- bro ok ima need somebody to explain how that shit can see perfectly out its mouth, cs just crazy💀.
JJ did eat humans before though. There is a radio talk show at the begin that talks about some missing hikers. It ate them and that killed their father in the beginning.

Then why did he get upset and eat all the ppl? Was it bc if the fake horse?
@@artinstructor4020 Well at that point JJ had already eaten a few people. That + the decoy horse + all of them looking at JJ probably set it off.

Damn, then that thing is somewhat intelligence after all.

@@kien9350 Intelligent enough to be bullet proof ?? Shotgun anyone?
@@totallytubular8760 Im not sure if this is what they mean but what im guessing is at the start somewhat,the people were using the horses as baits cause they assumed that the alien likes to eat the horses so they used that to their advantage to try and take a picture . Near the end when the alien ate all the people in the stadium though,it left the horse and the black guy came to investigate. The alien used the horse as bait to catch the attention of the guy so when the guy got near the horse,we saw the alien trying to digest the guy is what im getting (im not good at explaining)
8:50 using pigs wouldn’t work as bait, pigs’ necks limits their upward movement so they physically cannot look up, that’s why you see a pig on top of the entrance of Jupe’s theme park.

Unfortunately Helium is not explosive at all, it's a nobel gas that will not do anything. That is why it's so safe to use in balloons.

Realistically after all those people went missing with no trace from the park, there would be a media frenzy. A bunch of search and rescue teams scouring the area, assuming families of the missing would be desperate to find their missing family members. Military would investigate on that alone, helicopters/planes would be searching the area for the lost.

The creature can 100% see through its body as it swaps focus between Em and OJ at the end. It definitely sees when OJ makes Eye Contact in the movie. Eye Contact is a huge part of the movie as OJ doesn't like to make Eye Contact with people. Eye contact was interrupted with Jupe and the Chimp with the table cloth. You weirdly skipped that whole bit.
THE CLOTH OMG... IT WAS NEVER DIRECT EYE CONTACT YOU GENIUS
Don’t forget the upright shoe
@@granthill4252 what did the shoe mean
@@midnighttrend1580 the shoe has many meanings. It saved jupe from making eye contact w gordy which would’ve killed him, it also was a metaphor for waiting for the other shoe to drop “the alien coming at him” , also could’ve just been in his head that the shoe was upright as some sort of trauma. (Kinda a theory of him making money off of the tragedy) There’s a lot of theory’s
Yeah but that's all symbolic stuff, good for the movie, but like, logically an alien organism would recognize food by shape and/or movement, not the small dots they have and whether or not those dots are pointed at it
The animal he uses as "bait" is the one of the only animals that can't look up. Thus, the one pig that was left at the theme park
I'd argue the opposite. If the creature's behavior is similar to terrestrial predators, it will stay out in the field and far away from the city because here the prey is seperated from the herd. It tries to stay as hidden as possible, and only reveals itself when it's certain that it can devour all animals present.
So solution basically is to just sell your horses and move to a populated area?
@@NOTDeezy. Basically yes. It is no guarantee of course and it's not exactly easy for many people to just move, but still.
@@NOTDeezy. this also supports why UFO’s are only seen in cornfields and such, never openly in a populated area
Well it started to associate humans with food because jupe was feeding it horses. It's like when people are told not to feed bears but do it anyway so the bear starts invading your campsite to try and find the food you've got stashed somewhere and accidentally destroys your stuff because Karen a few tents over gave it beef jerky. Same concept
I'm just g lad it isn't a white person up there being evil in a Jordan Peele movie again XD

Fun fact: *Jean Jacket* shares many traits with the Lovecraftian "Flying Polyp." Territorial, aggressive when looked at, and a few others. There is also lore (and youtube videos) for a "real" aerial phenomena called "sky serpents" that appear more like giant organic flying worms than anything mechanical, but also seem to house orbs of light or be made of orbs of light. Not disc shaped nor eating people but certainly what came to mind when we learn in the film the UFO is alive.

That weird traumatized actor offered to buy the place which rarely happens with public property since the property's well public, plus we don't see a lot of people there. Now you're wondering why i'd connect private property to not a lot of people showing up, well tons of people love horses and of course they'd go to a public place to see the horses.
Now what does the property being private mean? Those kids invaded private property which could've gotten them in a lot of trouble, don't forget they can't counter with the option of saying "that guy hit us!" Because they entered his property, in the middle of the night, and they almost made him have a heart attack which could've given the guy enough reason to sue the kids for just entering the property.
I watched this in the cinema with my friend and he said that's the only bit that actually scared him. I was hiding behind a plushie the whole time lol
bro in the theater me and my friends were squealing because this video doesnt do justice to how scary it is. in the barn scene OJ heard a sound and quickly turned around. And at first you see nothing, but the camera doesn't shift away from the scene. I looked closer in the theater, and you can very faintly see the outline of one of the aliens crounching in the corner. I screamed "oh shit! look!" and pointed it out to my friends and when they finally saw, it slowly began to stand. It did it so slowly that it took a good 15 seconds. easily in my top 3 movies of all time just because of how it makes you feel. The screams of the people being digested, and the sound of the biker screaming "OH GOD" over and over again in absolute agony. It sends a chill down ur spine. Espacially since the UFO is absolutely silent when it moves. All you hear is people screaming from the clouds.
That slow peek around the corner hit some primal fears a movie hasn’t done for me in a long time.
If you listen close in one scene of the movie, when they recognize the cloud that isn’t moving, OJ says “y’know I’ve probably been looking at that same cloud for the past six months.” and later on, Jupe says, “for the past *six months*, my wife and i have bare witness to an absolute spectacle.” meaning that that cloud was 100% JJ, and OJ was oblivious to it for those 6 months while he was selling Jupe the horses that would get fed to JJ.
Also, when OJ follows Ghost to try and save him and he spots the lights in the distance at Jupiter’s Claim, if you listen very closely you can actually hear Jupe rehearsing for the Star Lasso Experience, hence the presence of JJ.
Ok but seriously, the Star Festival scene freaked me the fuck out, and I had nightmares for days because of it. That being said, love the scene and how truly terrifying it is

Little fun fact about the pigs is that in this scenario they have the highest chance of survival. This is all do to the fact pigs cant look up. It is impossible for them to do so with how their muscle structure is oriented. Had they used pigs as bait, nothing would really happen to them considering you have to be looking at the Jean Jacket for it to attack you. This would likely lead to more questions on why the pigs weren't taken like the horses. Though it could lead to the same conclusion that O.J. made about not looking at Jean Jacket. So it at least would possibly give us some insight on the behavior of our favorite flying saucer. That is probably why the only "survivor" besides Lucky the Horse is the pig that is on top of one of the buildings at Jupiters Claim.

Everybody talking about how unnerving the digestation scene is but I found the Gordy's home scenes way more unnerving and shocking. Especially after learning about the true story behind it (try looking up Charla Nash if you're interested in it).
I instantly remembered something about a monkey/some primate mauling someone when I saw the first Gordy scene
The Gordy scenes were terrifying.
Seriously especially when we got the pov shot of it coming closer, my god was that terrifying to watch in a cinema
@@razorionxvii638 it was Travis the chimp who mauled its owners friend who actually took care of him many times. This is why you can't trust a chimp ever
honestly I was laughing my ass off because it looked like those bouncy houses at chuck e cheese or something rather than an actual stomach
One thing you did get wrong about the movie is the scene where JJ is above the house and the car. The creature is not looking to eat them. It already ate 40/60 people and was satiated for a while. It came there to assert dominance by outing blood on the house and spitting the fake horse at theme. It’s still a wild animal but it is decently intelligent.
Not😅
Jean Jacket wasn't able to eat those people because the horse statue was clogging its esophagus, that's why they were kept alive for so long and why it eventually spit them all out and then spit out the statue. It didn't get to actually digest those people. Later on when it eats people they stop screaming pretty quickly as they are digested.
I kinda want to see ya make a horror movie where the protagonist makes all the best decisions and still fails to survive. And it's in the "discovered footage" format
I would love that, it'd be way more terrifying that way
Basically think Speedrunner level 7 days to die nerd who is actually secretly fit, and a zombie prepper. Witness, but was not NEAR ground 0. Straps a GoPro to his head and tries to get his family out of the city using every back road and shortcut.
Make it gory, intimate and heartfelt; and dying. Not a "sacrifice" death, just a "My family screwed up and I took the L" death.
I think the best way this would work is with a love craft creature. With the protagonist realizing at the end that this isn’t even something he can fathom. Like maybe a cool concept of going mad if you make long eye contact with it or a god monster he couldn’t hope to defeat.
@@mrsoul6825 so… just a lovecraft film?
@@alwest4472 yeah lol. But with the original poster’s idea. Like the protagonist does everything so well and so right that we actually believe he’ll win until the end. When we find out the twist and he goes mad.
That scene with Jean Jacket dumping blood and the remains of his victims over Oj and Esmeralda’s house while we can hear screaming knowing that those are still living people, still remains in my nightmares every few days. I love this movie!😁😁😁
That scene was so creepy
Yeah and conventional wisdom tells us that it's digestion would be full of acidic stomach acid... Yikes

the fact that it's avoiding to eat barb wires means on the inside its very vulnerable
I don't think it was avoiding it, Angel was just tied down to the ground and JJ gave up because it's an animal and may have assumed he was more secure than he was
@@generik7414 a piece of the barbed wire got caught in jean jackets digestive system, making him give up on angel and ultimately transforming out of anger/distress. It didn’t just get tired lmaoo
Great video, but there was one issue: Jean Jacket is indeed territorial. Seeing the “head down” scene was after the digestion of the 40 people, JJ was acting on aggression (this being stated by the characters soon after the encounter), not because it needed food.
This is why at the end of the movie, Jean Jacket flares a weird green thing at the balloon, which JJ perceives as a threat (the balloon is making eye contact, flying above JJ, being followed by streamers which will “fuck it up”). This is a demonstration of JJ’s territorial behavior, as well as how JJ perceives threats and reacts to them (this behavior being inspired by real animals, such as birds and marine animals) :)
What I learned:
Stay in a car. The heaviest thing the alien can eat is a horse so as long as your car is heavy and far enough away, you might be able to tire the alien out of chasing you or it may not see you

Oooo your observation of the wind is very interesting. I originally only saw it to be comedic but it could also be a personification of dread/uncertainty coming to life and, as you worded it, saying “nope” to OJ and Emerald. This movie still is so interesting.
4:07, well they kind of did this with those blowup swinging men (I don't know what they're called) that they use at car dealerships. They put a bunch of them on the field and if they stopped working they knew the creature was close, and based on the order in which they shut off, they knew what direction it was comming from
lmao..blowup swinging men has me laughing asf!
There is an episode of "Family Guy" with a commercial selling those things that's hilarious. The salesman called them "Wacky Waving Inflatable Tube Men"...
but blowup swinging men caught me off guard 🤣🤣
there are multiple themes in this movie that gets explored and looking into depth makes the movie all more better. for example: The Gordy scene, lots of people got confused by it but here's my friend's idea mixed with mine:
Gordy was an animal used to be marketed, sorta like how Jean Jacket was marketed onto a jacket. Gordy was marketed as a unusual pet in that show, but it soon later backfired when he snapped and killed everyone. the shoe in that scene represents an unfortunate miracle, and is suppsoed to get your attention, telling you that you pay attention more to the shoe rather than the violence around it. sorta like Gordy, hes a danger but gets represented as a special character, getting your attention ignoring the fact that hes a chimp. so when he finally snaps, the realization finally kicks in and you see whats behind the curtains. this message is simply "dont meddle with nature for profit". On top of that, when Gordy went to fistbump Jupe, in that moment Jupe realized that he can control Predators. we see this with Jean Jacket herself, when Jupe is on screen, you can see on the back of his jacket that he has literally Jean Jacket imprinted on it, to be sold and marketed. this also sorta confirms that Jupe thinks that he can control predators, we've seen it with the stadium and look how that turned out. Gordy was supposed to be the small representation of Jean Jacket and why you shouldn't meddle with predators. this theme of control is present for most of the movie, like at the start, where The Movie Director was instructing OJ to do these things like "Spin", "Look here" and stuff like that, things you would say to an animal. But thats my interpretation, reply with your own, debunk or add on to this comment if you want too, i love reading other's interpretation for this movie.
This isn't against you, but I honestly don't see why people are confused about the Gordy stuff. It's clearly included to illustrate the theme. It's also legitimately terrifying.
Also, before he starts his demonstration, Jupe (clearly delusional) mutters to himself, "You were chosen." He thought that he survived his encounter with Gordy because he had some kind of special influence, but it was something as simple as his eyes being covered by the tablecloth. So many people ignorantly want a spectacle, thinking they are special enough to control it, but then they find out they can't.
Damn, so let's see, This move was themed around control. But I can't remember what get out's theme was. Racism? And I completely forgot what Us message was. Can someone refresh my memory
@@Crimson_Screwball3446 get out I believe is a message of how black people/ the working class in general sell their bodies (bad backs, injuries etc in labour) to the rich, whilst the rich seemingly make it seem noble as they say black people have better bodies or something I don’t remember perfectly.
Us I forgor
B
Jupe thought he was chosen bc of he was spared, but he missed the lesson. He too was a token like Gordy, and instead of learning, he did the same thing the producers did and ended up dying by the very thing that was supposed to bring them profit.

I love how you only describe the ways the characters can deal with their situation using only the information that they know, and if they don't have that information, you tell us the way in which they could have found it out, which makes it follow along with the movie much better. Great videos as always.
Kelsi Rutledge: Jordan wanted to make something that was still in the realm of scientific possibility. He had a clear vision for how he wanted the creature to look and then was hoping for certain elements. Like, “Is there anything like this that exists?” I think marine animals have freaky, weird attributes that provide great inspiration for alien-like things. When he was designing the eyeball, for example, he’s like, “I really want to do a square eyeball, but does that exist anywhere in nature?” It’s not very common, but octopus have this very square iris actually...
13:27 it would be a terrible idea to tie the horse to the stable stall or outside because in a panic the horses would sprint, as shown earlier in the movie and break its neck, killing it. I am speaking from experience when I type this to. Also, it is often very difficult to find a new field to put horses in never mind a whole ranch (also speaking from experience) then you have the high expense of paying for said ranch or field so it’s a loose loose situation either way unless you ride and camp until they find somewhere
i agree
First off, Yes, it is indeed a terrifying monster. But I have a feeling that an explosive device similar to a grenade or more powerful would be more than capable of killing or seriously damaging it.
Yeah I was thinking War of the Worlds style kill. Someone has a grenade or some explosive equivalent and sacrifice themselves.
@@crbuck3394 no need for heroic sacrifices. If the movie established that it would chase anything that "looked" at it, then setting up something like a scarecrow with dynamite would be enough to deal with it, since the nitroglycerin inside of it would explode on a harsher impact, thus solving the problem with zero casualties.
@@luizgarcia3081 Fair point, didn’t think about that.
Yeah, this definitely isn't a "fate of humanity" situation when it was killed by a damn helium balloon, albeit it would still be a tragic event if it did go to a city because it would still kill quite a few people before being ultimately stopped
Just thought about it, if they got the footage to the military, it’s not like it’s hard for the military to deal with it. One aim-120 would take it out from miles away. Far out of reach from the aliens electrical disruption. Plus, f-15, f-16, and f-22 and 35’s are all hardened against EMP’s
I really love the idea of an alien being a predator from space rather than a standard probing style UFO
Nah that isn't the case. Here is Peele's quote from an interview:
“I was trying to let people figure that one out for themselves, you know?” said Peele. “So I wasn’t leaning into that but the cat’s out of the bag. We are talking about a UFO here and it is not of planet Earth and it also of course refers to how Black people - what we would say if we saw a UFO: ‘Nope.’ It’s like ... no extraterrestrial.”

I guess it's lost on general audiences, but when he mentions the "Magic Hour," it's referring to dusk and is generally the BEST time to film anything. While Jean Jacket caused a lot of damage, it's entirely possible that some of the footage survived, especially if the digital footage automatically uploads to a Cloud-based server.
As for what I'd do, I always thought the solution to beating Jean Jacket was getting it to suck up some sort of explosive device and then detonate it once it sucks it up. There's plenty of items civilians can get to do this, such as gunpowder. Use an extended timed fuse and double-prime it to guarantee it goes off when Jean Jacket sucks it up.
maybe that is why military didnt do anything, they wanted it to capture alive. But our heroes killed it. So probably the military was shaking their heads because of wasted opportunity. It was easy to trace anyway, because of its EMP like what the TMC reporter said. Cant find their location on the map. So i believe this already got the military attention already before it booms on the news.
24:58 I'm completely on this guy's side. The reporter was basically free bait!
I liked to imagine the reporter was trying to help and understand what's going on so he could help the team but now that I understand that he was gonna take credit I don't feel bad for him anymore
But if they used him as bait and word got out, they could be facing some legal troubles from the reporter's family, or the law if there are some Good Samaritan laws in the county.
@@Griffith_Here Well, he kind of destroyed that theory (being a help) early on when he started hitting Emerald with the pushy questions in his gossipy, TMZ tone. 😆

@@kseg5076 The camera would be fine. Since the alien died before it could spit it out, all you need to do is get the government to dig it out or something. Found footage basically

I wanted to see the star festival scene so badly but I could not find it on youtube... so I watched the movie myself to see the scene. I regret everything, it was truly horrifying to see them all die in such a way it terrifies me to think of the sounds and the screams inside jj. also the 2nd most terrifying moment in the movie to me was the one where jj vomited on the house but star festival takes the cake for most terrifying scene in a movie I've seen so far.
He didn’t survive. You can hear the horse screaming while they were being sucked up before it starts chasing em on the bike. Then at the end oj is saying hi to her from “out yonder” which means he crossed over and she’s just seeing his ghost.
Warning: Major spoilers for Nope (2022)While the real meaning of Nope may be difficult to understand on its first viewing, the movie does give viewers clues to the fate of its protagonist, secretly proving in a twist that OJ does survive the Nope ending. (on google)
He and the Horse survived that's why the Horses name is Lucky and one of the reasons to why JJ didn't get that horse because it was one of the "Lucky Ones"
I don't understand why some people keep saying he died based on screams? First off the horse made those sounds pretty much the whole time because the alien kept getting closer. Second the alien was making the sounds of the people it ate the whole movie even when it wasn't feeding, third the alien can only eat in saucer foarm, I thought that was pretty clear based on how he sucks things up, it wouldn't make sense for it to feed while it's in it's defensive form, even when it grabs the big blow up dude it doesn't actually suck it up and eat it untill it goes back to the saucer foarm.
And finally kind of seems like they tell us OJ won't get eaten when the film dude talked about the purple alien didn't kill because the person was too tough
he did he did. and they showed a good reason why he did.
jean jacket likely needs to be in its disk state in order to 'feed'. the folds of its body allowed it to suck up the prey and digest it. it can't 'eat' in its unfolded state and was likely an attempt to intimidate oj.
Oj basically stared it down and intimidated it enough to not attack. it felt like it was at the disadvantage.
I thought the same thing at first but apparently (and thankfully!) OJ got away. Wait...
Bear searching for food and sees salmon.
Salmon looks the other way.
Bear: Guess it was nothing
Bear is walking in the forest and finds another bear. That other bear is making hard eye contact. Taking it as a sign of agression, the bear attacks the other bear.
Tbh them trying to film it for money is the most accurate thing about this movie.
The scene where the kids were dressed as aliens creeped me out the most. I was both excited and freaked out finally seeing creepy aliens on the big screen but of course my disappointment is immeasurable my day was ruined.
Right
Yup, Peele decided to do something actually new and interesting instead.
But the Saucer being a breathing living creature was a cool idea.
... There's other alien movies tho?
Pigs wouldn’t work cuz they physically can’t look up so it wouldn’t eat them. That’s why there’s one on the roof after the attack on the event
They said that the monster would eat prey regardless of the prey staring or not, maybe the pig on the roof was lucky or something, you never know.

bro in the theater me and my friends were squealing because this video doesnt do justice to how scary it is. in the barn scene OJ heard a sound and quickly turned around. And at first you see nothing, but the camera doesn't shift away from the scene. I looked closer in the theater, and you can very faintly see the outline of one of the aliens crounching in the corner. I screamed "oh shit! look!" and pointed it out to my friends and when they finally saw, it slowly began to stand. It did it so slowly that it took a good 15 seconds. easily in my top 3 movies of all time just because of how it makes you feel. The screams of the people being digested, and the sound of the biker screaming "OH GOD" over and over again in absolute agony. It sends a chill down ur spine. Espacially since the UFO is absolutely silent when it moves. All you hear is people screaming from the clouds.
The craft in this movie was immaculate. Honestly though? I found Jean Jacket the alien to be beautiful and kind of funny. He reminded me of my betta fish… angry, territorial, puffs out when you look him in the eye. Gordy though? *CHILLS*. The scene where he looks at the camera activated my fight or flight response. I was seriously ready to bolt.

The worst thing I think he’s doing is posting shorts, to me a channel posting shorts is basically a channel admitting that their channel is dead and they think their viewers are too dumb to realize they’re only posting shorts to try and get extra views. It’s basically the same as posting daily community posts. With all that said, thank you for coming to my Ted talk.
@Shadowyarts I disagree, but to understand why, you need to know a few things, so, my life started growing up in a small farm in northern Kansas. My father was a farmer and my mother was a cashier in our local town down the dirt road. We didn’t have much and income was very little, my best toy I got growing up was a pig bladder blown up like a balloon that I could play around with between me and my two brothers. At the age of 11 things started getting tougher in my house life due to my fathers drinking problem as it was not a good harvest that year. Like his father before him once he was done working he would come home and drink but unlike his father he wouldn’t beat us unless we messed up, his father left him and his mother to fend for themselves after world war 2 though so he had it tougher than me growing up. One time my father did drink too much and he hit my little brother Jamey. Jamey didn’t know what to do and ran away during the night during a storm. The entire family was out looking for him but we never saw Jamey again. This made my father drink more and lead him to take his life when I was at the age of 16. My older brother and me had to completely take over the farm with the help of our mom quitting her job as a cashier, life got very hard from here on out. We got a break when I was 18 with a good harvest we were able to save up some money. I was able to move out at the age of 21 and into a larger city in Tennessee. It was hard leaving the family as my ma was getting older but my older brother completely took over the farm and even expanded it into a more profitable work. I began working in what I was good at, repairing mechanics. I was a hard worker and moved up in my chain of work easily within my town. I dated aroun’ a bit but never settled down with anyone I would write home about for my first few years. When I was 26 I got a call from my ma, my brother was working with some machinery on the farm and got his hand caught in it and heavily damaged. I had to come home and help with the farm, at the time I had attained a high position as a senior mechanic within an auto shop and sometimes worked on the side with repairing electronics. I went home and had to help with the farm for a year, ma wasn’t doing good at all. She passed the next year due to kidney disease. My brother eventually recovered and I returned to Tennessee, I attempted to return to my position but due to the time I was out I had been long replaced. I had to begin to work from the bottom again when I had a client come in, she was the most beautiful woman I ever seen in Tennessee with gorgeous brown hair. Nice to say that we hit it off pretty well, within a few weeks we were dating. I can say that she was one of the best things to have happened to me in my life. At the age of 30 I married her and my first child was on the way then. I had returned to my previous position and bought a nice house near the mountains of Tennessee. At the age of 34 my second child was born. My two kids are now both in high school, one a freshman, another a Senior. I continued my career into more electronics working on computers and fixing them. In 2013 while googling how to fix a small problem with a motherboard I found a strange site named reddit.com, this website had all the answers I needed and a community always ready to help. I’ve been on the site ever since. And that's why I think shorts are just overall in my opinion subjectively not the best thing.
@@iamnotcreativeenoughforana5875 Honestly bro that was really well thought out good job im convinced
@@iamnotcreativeenoughforana5875 That was a novel of a comment
But he was doing both
I fucking love how you just go into how to beat the "aliens off their ship" when its just some kids. The fact that its never brought up how these were just some clever fuckers.
wait nvm you just ignored that fact for a few minutes.;/
Can we talk about how BEAUTIFUL the alien's final form is tho?? It looks so ethereal
Thats how it lures in their food 😉 cant look away 👀
that's one of the points of its design! it's supposed to be an intimidation tactic that either:
1. scares its prey
2. shocks/leaves the prey in confusion or awe so that the predator can better hunt the prey!
I highly recommend watching this movie. It covers many themes and the horror is only a small element in it
small but effective as shit!
Honestly, seeing as the monster died to a helium balloon I am positive that it was not a threat to humanity.
yeah its even scared of barb wire. If humanity realized its existence it's fucked
Well it’s has a very thin skin already
If this creature really found its way on Earth it would be captured so fast and studied lol
I would think that the last few years have shown how dumb people can be. It ate a lot of people before it came across some people smart enough to know how to defeat it. We never saw people shoot at it, so who knows if something like that would have even worked. But you'd best believe that'd have been the first thing people IRL would have tried. And gotten sucked up for their trouble. It took intelligence to defeat it, and that's something undesirable these days.
Yeah but horror creatures don’t need to be a massive, humanity killing threat.
I not sure there's anything in the film that actually proves that Jean Jacket's species is from space or is an alien. In fact, the biblical quote at the beginning of the film coupled with the "many wings" version of angels, it could be said many sighting of these creatures have happened, but in the form of Angel and/or UFO sightings (or more depending on how the culture interprets it's open form).
I love how the beginning of the movie starts with a dude dying, being brought to the hospital, having a coin embedded in his brain and the hospital is like "nothing to look further into here! just an unexpected projectile embedded in a man's brain" and the entire event isn't looked into by anyone at all.
What exactly are they supposed to do about it?
For a film called Nope, the characters sure do reject a lot of opportunities to leave the situation.
Money money money money 🦀🦀🦀
@@fornowhere7264 yup
Make sure it hurts anyone else I suppose
jean jacket did not purposefully murder the father. it had no reason to. it was just minding its own business and releasing the stuff it could not digest
I loved how they did the akira bike slide
This makes a movie 20% cooler
Sure, some of these points have been reiterated, but some corrections to the context that the video seemed to miss or misread...
1. It already had a taste for humans, as evidenced by the hikers we hear in the first part, and it vomiting up their stuff.
2. What it DID develop a taste for was horses. The theme park owner was feeding it horses to "train" it into appearing for his show, and whether this plan was doomed to fail from the start or not was sealed because...
3. They fed it that fake horse decoy. It sucked it up, thinking it was food, only to find out it was an inanimate object. This PISSED IT OFF, which is why we see its behavior change and grow more aggressive during the latter part of the film. When he gets to the theme park, the horse is still there cause the creature is now avoiding eating horses cause it had been tricked into eating a fake one. It's also why it goes extra aggro when they try filming it cause it's the same area where it had been "tricked" so it's now trying to assert dominance by eating anything that moves.
4. Also, its eye contact response IS its hunting trigger; anything that can see it is marked as prey. While it's not a completely dumb animal, it's not high functioning on the level of a bear as it was compared to. Not looking at it is the right play, as we see repeatedly. It's not that it won't or can't eat the truck when he stays in it. It doesn't have a pair of eyes looking at it and therefore can't confirm if it's prey and, therefore, food.
Also, playing up, it being a "threat to the entire human race" is a stretch in this case. There is a heavy implication it's not an alien and has always been around. It is nearly impossible to witness without being eaten due to its hunting patterns based on eyesight and the habit of keeping out of sight. Sure, it will wreak havoc on an area, but outside being confronted by a small under equipped group, it's not "that" much of a threat.

@@planetbob6703 its dumb asf
Of all the horror movies...this one seemed to have a lot more options. All the others I thought, I would be screwed. But I immediately thought, why not trick it into eating something you have attached some kind of explosive too. Also, why not just have cars/vans parked all over that you can duck into if it won't suck up a car?
well that's why this horror movie's goal ain't to kill the thing--that's easy. it's _securing the bag._ which is also, ultimately one of the main themes of the movie.
Ye Isa very good movie
very possible. but it might be a case of what parts of it are redundant and what aren't. if you fail to destroyed it vital organs, it might just run off and regenerate.
its intelligence would make it more cuatious afterwards.
Idk why, but I found the kids pretending to be aliens the most scariest bit in the movie, lmao 😂,
But overall I really liked this movie 🍿👏🤩
The time stamp to when they’re shown is around 6:11
One of the best videos I’ve seen from How To Beat. It actually feels like I watched the movie
Kinda have to watch it twice. 1st) Enjoy the thriller ride. 2nd) Connect the Dots.
Jupe was at fault for trying to tame a Lovecraftian Alien never learned his lesson with the Chimpanzee Gordy.
FYI he's been feeding that "UFA" from the Start for some time as Hikers, mysterious Accidents, Cattle & Horses start vanishing since it's Arrival.
"That means hes not just hungry, but really pissed off." HAD ME DYING LMFAO
Could have gotten an anti-tank bundle grenade, or a bunch and strapped them to a decoy with a string attached to pull the pin as hard as u possibly can. Make sure the grenade is taped onto the decoy as hard as possible and the decoy is heavy enough to not fall over
Bf1:
how is any normal person gonna just find a bundle of grenades in a store?
@@cosmicklampzy1222 nobody mentioned a store. also this movie is a universe where aliens exist, I'm sure you can find just normal grenades in a weapon store or find some old weaponry in your grandpas storages / basement
@@FROGGKINGG what store sells grenades, target?
@@FROGGKINGG um they don't stell grenades in stores and most people grandpas don't even have weapons like that movies or not
I love how in this one episode, all your smart planning is actually worse than what the movie does. By assuming that the aliens are smart and advanced, you wouldn't have given the plastic bait (which allowed them to learn they can damage it and repel it with UN-digestible foods and bright colored fabrics) and by replacing it with pigs as a decoy you would have endangered yourself with the explosives but the alien wouldn't have touched them (because they can't look up and therefore don't look at it in the eye). I know you said it doesn't make sense, but the creature does work like that, so sense or no sense it is how to beat it...
A very interesting episode for sure
How to beat Nope:
After dad dies
Emerald: OJ, it’s time to close the family tradition and move to the city, start a new life
OJ: NOPE!!
Emerald: Dueces ✌🏽
*rolls credit*
Lol
Underrated
And then jj haves a field day out for a feast
the alien design is genius, it starts as a generic ufo and turns into a fucking titanic jellyfish
also JJ does have an eye it’s just very hard to see, there are tiny spots in the rim of the ufo form early in the movie, you can see it in some shots
There is something that we still don't know about the TMZ guy's death. He had a helmet on.....his eyes weren't visible, then why does it kill him and not OJ who is right beside him. Does the mirror like finish of his helmet mess with its brain.......does the brief reflection of OJ's eyes on his helmet trigger it ?? Answer to this question IMO will give us more details about Jean Jacket's behaviour.
Yeah OJ's reflection is what got him. That's why OJ apologized to him.
I also think it’s because animals typically don’t enjoy seeing their own reflection (example: lucky at the beginning of the movie). His helmet reflects everything around it so it easily makes him prey.
Helmet looks like Jean Jacket, JJ mistook it because it's a dumb animal
same thing with the mirror ball and the horse earlier in the movie
In JJ's true form, it does kinda resemble biblically accurate angel.
It’s interesting too because you could see how people could interpret being sucked up by the “angel” as a Devine act… like being taken to heaven
Does the movie explain why the animal is named Jean Jacket?
@@jbear3478 JJ was the name of a horse that the sister character was meant to tame. But their father had OJ do it last minute for the Scorpion King.
So it’s referring to that when they decide on Jean Jacket.
Yea I was thinking that when I watched it on theaters
@@jbear3478 Yes there's a scene where they decide to call it Jean Jacket. It's in the film. You should watch it.
I was laughing so hard when the UFO ate the balloon mascot when I saw it in theater. What a creative way to defeat a monster 🤣🤣
actually a simple taser should work against the creature. the creature doesnt trip fuses so its more likely it causes problems for digital equipment (the bike runs on lithium batterys wich are usually connected to a chip to run safer/last longer) while the lights in the wishing well camera stayed alive and the camera still worked even thou it likely has a electric trigger.
eeeh disagree. its a pretty large creature.
@@taddad2641 but it doenst have much mass. its basicaly a jello fish after all. and yes there are jellofishes with eyes. they live in australian waters adn are known as chironex fleckeri or the asutralian box jello.
I literally just saw this movie with my friends and honestly I almost started crying afterwards. Don’t know why but I think it was due to the story as a whole and the amazing cinematography to make this amazing movie. It really made me think if I should take my film hobby and make it a reality.
yeh it was great and also unpleasing end
The part you were wrong about is the fact that eye contact is key to the story , there are multiple scenes with the chimp and the horse at the start where they were provoked by eye contact, the animal relys on eye contact to gather its food, it uses the screams as a way to lure in eye contact
I honestly would've died laughing if I saw a reporter who fully knew there may be an alien around, and he goes to record it and dies in the process, it would've made me laugh.
I've seen enough of these videos to figure out how to live in a life or death situation but i honestly wouldn't do this smart stuff this guy advises in a terrifying heat of the moment.
20:47 just to let you know the tunnel like thing you see at the start of the film that is in the mouth acts as the creatures eye, so it can see who is looking at it from below.
I think a lot of people missed the point with Jean Jacket. Jean Jacket isn’t and Alien. Its a native species to Earth hence its extreme similarities to Jelly fish and other marine life and what would happen if those organism’s grew and became adapted to Earths atmosphere out of the ocean, hence also why other “saucer” sightings throughout history in the world of Nope were either Jean Jacket or other organisms related to Jean Jacket.
nah, JJ is a seraphim like in the bible angel.,but maybe fallen.
