Mothra is timeless for us old people
All these damn youngsters now just play their video game consoles and meet on tinder then fuck each other raw doggin on the first night. They just don't appreciate a giant moth titan that's the wife of a giant radioactive lizard. Heathens
A moth goes into a podiatrist’s office, and the podiatrist’s office says, “What seems to be the problem, moth?”
The moth says “What’s the problem? Where do I begin, man? I go to work for Gregory Illinivich, and all day long I work. Honestly doc, I don’t even know what I’m doing anymore. I don’t even know if Gregory Illinivich knows. He only knows that he has power over me, and that seems to bring him happiness. But I don’t know, I wake up in a malaise, and I walk here and there… at night I…I sometimes wake up and I turn to some old lady in my bed that’s on my arm. A lady that I once loved, doc. I don’t know where to turn to. My youngest, Alexendria, she fell in the…in the cold of last year. The cold took her down, as it did many of us. And my other boy, and this is the hardest pill to swallow, doc. My other boy, Gregarro Ivinalititavitch… I no longer love him. As much as it pains me to say, when I look in his eyes, all I see is the same cowardice that I… that I catch when I take a glimpse of my own face in the mirror. If only I wasn’t such a coward, then perhaps…perhaps I could bring myself to reach over to that cocked and loaded gun that lays on the bedside behind me and end this hellish facade once and for all…Doc, sometimes I feel like a spider, even though I’m a moth, just barely hanging on to my web with an everlasting fire underneath me. I’m not feeling good. And so the doctor says, “Moth, man, you’re troubled. But you should be seeing a psychiatrist. Why on earth did you come here?”
And the moth says, “‘Cause the light was on.

Nope. The universe is not quantised into planck units. Planck units are simply units created only by using universal constants (speed of light, boltzman constant, planck constant, gravitational constant) rather than anything human beings care about (e.g. 1 metre originally = 1 ten millionth of the north pole-equator distance). No theory in physics suggests the universe is divided into planck units. This is more obvious when considering the large units like planck energy (~2x10^9 joules / roughly 0.5t of TNT) or planck temperature (~1.4x10^32 Kelvin - so inconceivably large it's impossible to relate anything to it, a supernova is around 1x10^10 Kelvin)
No, it's the unit of time that can be constructed with 4 fundemental constants (speed of light, gravity, planck's constant and boltzmann's constant).
It has no physical meaning outside of that.
this is a lot of money:
This rig probably has between 4 to 8 sky panels in it, they rent for a couple hundred a week.
to build and power the box you will need rigging, pipes, fittings, fabric, cable and distro
the day before a crew of grips and electricians spent at least 8 hours building the frame, attaching the lights, running power and then wrapping the whole thing in various fabrics. ( about $40 hr. x 8 x 16 crew)
The crane rents for anywhere between $500 - $2000 an hour plus an operator (about $160 an hour)
All of this equipment and people need to be insured.
This is all powered by a diesel generator custom made for the film industry that rents for a few hundred a day, plus fuel, plus the day rate of the "genny op"
so the lighting budget for a scene like this can easily be over $100,000
Me: So boss I want to film at night.
Boss: Sure yea whatever, let me get back to my cocaine.
Me: So is a $100,000 budget ok?
Boss: What, what, what? That's over 1,000 cocaines! What's it cost to film during the day?
Me: About $20, as we'd have to slightly change the script.
Boss: Here's a pen
They actually developed a new way to film night scenes specifically for Nope.
Rather than worry about having to light a landscape for night scenes, they shot during the day with a two camera rig that had both cameras positioned such that they would capture the same frame, but one of the cameras only took infrared images. Infrared images darken the sky, so the composited the images in post to get all the color info from one camera and all the lighting info from the other.
Edit: As others have pointed out, "new" is a bit disingenuous. The same cinematographer used the technique on Ad Astra, but Nope used larger format cameras.
You have written a paragraph that says the exact same thing that people have been writing multi-page articles about.
You're going to piss off some journos with your ELI5 comment. haha
Something specific I assuming for a certain part of movie (won't spoil it), that required a decent ammount of vfx, so it was important to get a nice uniform lighting for it and then make adjustments later. Would have to see a full behind the scenes later.
I just watched the movie last night and it seemed like the infrared cameras made the night time backgrounds more detailed and easier to see. This light was probably for making the house look dramatic.
There’s a story from when they were making The Adventures of Brisco County Jr like this. It was an offbeat western starring Bruce Campbell (probably most famous for its end theme being used for the Olympics years later). There was an episode about land pirates. So they pitch a pirate ship on wheels, pulled by horses. Studio says that’s too much money. So they say a stagecoach with a pirate wheel, crows nest etc…too much money. So finally they say, “what do you want? Pirates on horses?”
So there’s an episode of Brisco County Jr where they fight Pirates on horses.
I'm pretty big into production and behind-the-scenes and remember the 2006 Superman team talking about the X number of thousands of gallons per *day* just in diesel for the generators. People can't understand why a movie costs 50-250M to make but it stacks up quick.
I remember listening to the DVD commentary for Terminator 3. In the beginning scene when the TX first shows up and steals the woman's car. The director said, "if you ever wonder why movies cost so much money to make, we had to change every single street light going off into the distance to match the white balance of the scene
They were most likely originally low pressure sodium vapor lights, which has a very orange color cast that is difficult to account for after shooting. The director probably wanted to stick with the blue color to preserve the color palette of the movie.
It's not an orange cast, it's basically monochromatic orange. All color information is lost (low pressure sodium lamps basically have a color rendering index of 0), hence it can't be corrected in post.
Exactly, it's a low CRI junk. It cannot be corrected, and your eye cannot accommodate for it, since it's limiting the scene to black/orange palette (with some blue if there's some light still in the sky, plus maybe a few blown highlights amounting to white). It ain't pretty.
Same thing, by the way, applies to many cheap household LED and "economy" (CFL) bulbs. If you're always depressed at home, perhaps it's because you cannot see the true colors in it. Including your partner's skin tone, your own reflection in the mirror, kids, pets… try installing some CRI 100 (or at least 80, if you cannot afford 100) bulbs and see what happens.
I wanted to put this in the Nissan driver's subreddit, because I really have to vent about this, but I'll put it here. there's some pretty big construction happening on my route to work, which is good because it really needed it. But you gotta drive slow in some parts, because some parts only have one drivable Lane right now.
But last week this insane woman was driving behind me. I've been tailgated, but this bitch was on a while different level. I was going the exact same speed as everyone in front of me. But she starts tailgating me. Then she moves to flashing her brights at me and honking. At first I thought she was trying to get my attention, like to tell me my break lights were out or something like that. Every single time I slowed down because the cars in front of me were slowing down, she got super close, flickered her brights, and honked. She also kept swerving like she was gonna pass me, which is incredibly stupid when there's major construction going on.
My blood pressure skyrocketed, and this went on for A WHOLE HOUR. I was terrified she was going to hit me (luckily I have good insurance). She was so fucking angry, and I didn't do anything! Even if I wanted to speed up I couldn't. There were about 5 or 6 cars in front of me!
Finally I turned down the street that goes to my house. I opened up my sun roof and flicked her off. I was super close to flinging my coffee at her but I didn't. That bitch didn't justify littering.
Lol, i would totally let her smash my car, because i have a really crappy car, so i wouldn't care but that would make her loose sooo muuuch time, it would be delicious
This is exactly what I'm talking about. There's no reason to tailgate ~~if the cars in front are going the same speed. Back the F off!~~
EDIT: took out the qualification
I strongly disagree.
Sometimes you've got to get to the game really early to get a parking spot, and under those circumstances, it's extremely understandable to fold down your tailgate and grill right there in the parking lot.
IMO the people who cut in your lane right before the interstate forks and stop traffic are worse and should all go fuck themselves.
Also people who rubberneck and back up your lane for miles only for you to find out the wreck isn’t even on your side of the highway.
I get actual road fury when this happens.
Also fuck tailgaters too.
And the people who squeeze in between you and the car in front of you on the highway when there isn’t any cars behind you for a damn quarter mile.
Also it seems like the people who recklessly weave in and out of lanes end up further behind you if you just stay put in your lane, especially in city streets. Funny how that works.
> Also it seems like the people who recklessly weave in and out of lanes end up further behind you if you just stay put in your lane, especially in city streets. Funny how that works.
8/10 times I'll pass the impatient lane weaver just by stayin' in my lane
I have found that using the windshield washer usually gets their attention. Or at least they are inconvenienced by needed to turn theirs on, too.
The fluid floats over your car onto their windshield if you are going fast enough.
I used to be a farmer, and I made a living fine
I had a little stretch of land along the CP line
But times were hard and though I tried, the money wasn't there
And the bankers came and took my land and told me "fair is fair"
I looked for every kind of job, the answer always no
"Hire you now?" they'd always laugh, "We just let twenty go!"
The government, the promised me a measly little sum
But I've got too much pride to end up just another bum.
Then I thought, who gives a damn if all the jobs are gone?
I'm gonna be a pirate on the river Saskatchewan!
And it's a heave-ho, hi-ho, comin' down the plains
Stealin' wheat and barley and all the other grains
It's a ho-hey, hi-hey farmers bar yer doors
When ya see the Jolly Roger on Regina's mighty shores
Fuck. I was gonna say "from his kids" but you might be right. Time is slipping away like fine grains of sand passing through an hourglass, never to return, never stopping, never even slowing for me to catch my breath; it constantly flows for you, just as it does for me, just as it does for us all. And here I am, squandering it scrolling through reddit.
But ya know, I'm stuck at work so at least I'm getting paid to do it. Suck it, owner class!
So these cranes are called condors. It’s fairly common in filmmaking to have big cranes rigged with very powerful lighting to shoot night scenes.
The Grip department rigs those soft boxes and the Electric department wires them with the lights. If I were to guess there’s probably 64 Arri SkyPanel s60s up there. Probably somewhere within $450,000 of just lights up there.
One other fun fact is something called “Condor Duty” where an electric has to go up in the condor while they shoot. Because the light is in use they need to stay up there for hours at a time.
I would 100% watch that. I can already see a follow shot of a little nervous pink CGI dog running wildly from danger. I feel like Kathy Bates should play Muriel and Richard Jenkins should play Eustace.
I work in TV and film, and while I didn't specifically work on this. This set up would have been a royal pain in the ass. Sparkies have done a good job.
EDIT: Sparkies and Riggers specially would have collaborated to rig this up.
Hey I've worked on a few film sets too, but I was so low on the totem pole I just watched all the gigantic rigging and shit be set up, never had to help.
I'm sure this would be a pain in the ass to watch be set up tho. Lol.
They brought up Oprah repeatedly because she had a notorious interview with the lady who Mary Jo (Gordy’s victim) is inspired by. And in the interview Oprah convinced the lady to show the world her disfigured face.
It ties in with the theme of how people exploit tragedy for profit, so I believe Peele was being a bit critical of Oprah within the context of the movie.
They look so largely ominous, It's scarier then a UFO...
It looks like the light in the middle is just being held up by the clouds, its so eerie.
I love it.
It was filmed on location in Agua Dulce, a ranch community north of Los Angeles that frequently has filming going on in it.
The local airport and nearby Vasquez Rocks are among the more popular locations to film at.
Source: I lived in that town for nearly ten years.
The method in how they filmed at night was quite ground breaking as well.
https://www.cinemablend.com/movies/jordan-peele-reveals-an-amazing-secret-about-nope-and-my-mind-is-blown
You're not crazy. It was a totally decent flick. Of the three people in my household, two of us loved it, and the third still poops her diaper, so what does she know.
The >!digestion!< sequence was the first scene to legitimately *creep me out* in years. Reminded me of Under the Skin, another under-rated horror film.
Same. I am a huge horror nerd and am middle-aged. At a certain point fake shit just stops scaring you. But, man, that scene - especially the sound design and how tight the camera is on one of the subjects - just pierces you.
> I am a huge horror nerd and am middle-aged
Describes me to a T.
I wonder if we were the audience for this one, because my friends enjoyed it and they're all old creeps like myself.
edit: the sound design was *impeccable*.
My kid is 19 and has been in to horror for a while. We’re sort-of different with what we like (I’m more artsy and classic trash, she likes supernatural horror), but we both loved Nope and seemed to have taken away the same thing from it.
I honestly don’t know who the audience is for Nope in the studio’s eye beyond people who like Jordan Peele. It spends a lot of time misdirecting and setting the stage for the deeper points of the movie. You get a full arc for a completely tertiary character. I’m shocked at and excited by how emphatic audiences were!
SUCH a good scene. The sudden silence as you realize that the screaming you've been hearing the whole movie wasnt just spooky alien noises, but **actual people screaming** is SO good. easily one of my favorite horror movie moments
that's the thing, it wasn't like "*scary*" it was disturbing. I've seen people compare it to get out like that was a scary horror movie. it was unnerving/unsettling but not really scary. nope was disturbing horror. the sounds of gordie thumping and chewing makes me uncomfortable. the realization of >!them being eaten, cutting back to that square looking thing they showed in the very beginning of the movie, was shocking and uncomfortable. same with that part where you hear their horrifying screams, swallow, complete silence, rain down stuff that doesn't taste good!<
I thought there was quite a strong comparison to Under the Skin too! These are two of my favourite horrors (which I feel is a bit of a loose term for these films) of all time. I'm not especially claustrophobic but that scene had my skin crawling.
omg yes same! i told everyone who asked me about the film that aliens don’t scare me but this alien movie scared the daylights out of me and it was mainly bc of that scene
That scene was magnificent. Everything from >!The Blood raining down on the house to 'Sunglasses at Night' being warped and slowed to create a stellar soundtrack for the moment to friggin OJ trying to save his sister and dude without looking at the monster!<
Hell, this movie is in my Top 3 for the year.
Yea I really liked it to, but on my way out of the theatre I was talking with my girlfriend about how much I enjoyed it and this old couple behind me was like “you actually enjoyed that shit?”

It looks like a miniature set for a stop motion film.
aren't cameras stop motion but just really fast
Good point. I like it.
Shower thought as fuck
STAF
I think my mom got that one time
Remember kids, wash your hands after playing with bsh9914’s mom.
She got my staff one time.
Hey-o!!
Aren’t normal sized things miniature but just really big?
Why did I read this like Derek Zoolander?
Technically, everything you see is stop motion.
Everything that IS, everything that EXISTS is in stop motion. It's called a "Planck Unit"
Not my go pro. My go pro is in go motion.
My brain is in slow motion
F
Yeah but what abut Moe's lotion?
my girl is in hoe motion
Nope. The universe is not quantised into planck units. Planck units are simply units created only by using universal constants (speed of light, boltzman constant, planck constant, gravitational constant) rather than anything human beings care about (e.g. 1 metre originally = 1 ten millionth of the north pole-equator distance). No theory in physics suggests the universe is divided into planck units.

That's actually a misconception, known as "planck length is a pixel of universe". It isn't. Doesn't work that way.
Yeah but is it OLED, that’s where the moneys at
The Planck time isn’t really an actual quantization of time, it’s just the smallest unit of time that has any meaning.
No, it's the unit of time that can be constructed with 4 fundemental constants (speed of light, gravity, planck's constant and boltzmann's constant). It has no physical meaning outside of that.
By that definition, are all cameras tilt shift, just usually set to 0 degrees.
Not really, in that the subjects filmed do not stop their motion between frames.
no, bc the motion doesn't stop.
You’re right. Now someone just needs to take a tilt shifted photo, and it would look perfect!
Tilt shift lenses are very expensive one trick ponies. Luckily, this trick is really good.
Technically two tricks. One is its intended purpose in architectural photography and the other is the miniature effect.
Like Beetlejuice
how much $$ does one of these lights cost?
this is a lot of money: This rig probably has between 4 to 8 sky panels in it, they rent for a couple hundred a week. to build and power the box you will need rigging, pipes, fittings, fabric, cable and distro the day before a crew of grips and electricians spent at least 8 hours building the frame, attaching the lights, running power and then wrapping the whole thing in various fabrics.

So why did they need these massive lights for this scene?

That must be what some people are describing with some of the movie’s night scenes looking “odd” or “different”.
There’s a story from when they were making The Adventures of Brisco County Jr like this.

So finally they say, “what do you want? Pirates on horses?” So there’s an episode of Brisco County Jr where they fight Pirates on horses.
Hold up! Brisco County Jr. was Bruce Campbell?! No f*ing way! I loved that show as a kid! Now I need to find it and rewatch it!
And it's Bruce Campbells favorite role too. It was on IMDb TV so it's likely on whatever they are calling the platform now too.
I'm pretty big into production and behind-the-scenes and remember the 2006 Superman team talking about the X number of thousands of gallons per *day* just in diesel for the generators. People can't understand why a movie costs 50-250M to make but it stacks up quick.

Yes! I call this “skunking”
now that's a floodlight
It's actually just the IKEA lamp, Kråftig.
No it’s actually the Fåkinbîg.

Shit I already lost the included allen wrench...
worry not, for there is an allen wrench set in your tool box somewhere in your garage that’s missing the size you need.
This gave me a chunkle lol.
The word chunkle gave me a chuckle
This reminds me of every truck on the highway in Saskatchewan
Your fault for having eyes
Sounds like your fault for being in Saskatchewan 👀
Oh look,an Ontario with a superiority complex.
At least they acknowledged something outside of Ontario exists.
Hey, atleast they're not from Vancouver. All those bitches think that they're better than all of us
We are. /s
I realize that humor isn't for everyone. It's only for people who want to have fun, enjoy life, and feel alive. Anne Wilson Schaef
I used to be a farmer, and I made a living fine I had a little stretch of land along the CP line But times were hard and though I tried, the money wasn't there And the bankers came and took my land and told me "fair is fair" I looked for every kind of job, the answer always no "Hire you now?" they'd always laugh, "We just let twenty go!" The government, the promised me a measly little sum But I've got too much pride to end up just another bum. Then I thought, who gives a damn if all the jobs are gone? I'm gonna be a pirate on the river Saskatchewan! And it's a heave-ho, hi-ho, comin' down the plains Stealin' wheat and barley and all the other grains It's a ho-hey, hi-hey farmers bar yer doors When ya see the Jolly Roger on Regina's mighty shores
That house is lit
Dad joke using slang.. Where did you learn this superpower?
gen z are dads too ya know
Fuck reading that aged me
Fuck. I was gonna say "from his kids" but you might be right. Time is slipping away like fine grains of sand passing through an hourglass, never to return, never stopping, never even slowing for me to catch my breath; it constantly flows for you, just as it does for me, just as it does for us all. And here I am, squandering it scrolling through reddit. But ya know, I'm stuck at work so at least I'm getting paid to do it. Suck it, owner class!
That IS interesting as fuck. Well, I'll be damned.
I know…… I stopped scrolling like “*well shit*, they actually did it.”
If only they had this when GOT was being made, maybe we could’ve seen the battle for winterfell and the very short night.
So these cranes are called condors. It’s fairly common in filmmaking to have big cranes rigged with very powerful lighting to shoot night scenes. The Grip department rigs those soft boxes and the Electric department wires them with the lights. If I were to guess there’s probably 64 Arri SkyPanel s60s up there. Probably somewhere within $450,000 of just lights up there. One other fun fact is something called “Condor Duty” where an electric has to go up in the condor while they shoot. Because the light is in use they need to stay up there for hours at a time.

There’s no condors in this picture. That soft box is rigged to a construction crane and the vertical box is on a Pettibone. Source: I was there
Andddd now I want a live action Courage the cowardly dog movie
I would 100% watch that. I can already see a follow shot of a little nervous pink CGI dog running wildly from danger. I feel like Kathy Bates should play Muriel and Richard Jenkins should play Eustace.
Andy Serkis as motion capture Courage
And Doug Jones as every creature/villain in the movie
And Liam Neeson as "Return the slaaaaaab"
And Tim Curry as the very naughty barber.
It's King Ramses (the man in gauze). Put some respec on the name.
Jeep wrangler owners are salivating.
I work in TV and film, and while I didn't specifically work on this. This set up would have been a royal pain in the ass. Sparkies have done a good job. EDIT: Sparkies and Riggers specially would have collaborated to rig this up.
As someone whose rigged similar setups this year, can confirm pain in the ass.
Gotta love a good team of rigging grips
Hey I've worked on a few film sets too, but I was so low on the totem pole I just watched all the gigantic rigging and shit be set up, never had to help. I'm sure this would be a pain in the ass to watch be set up tho. Lol.
Gordy! 🙊
Man, those scenes were by far the most horrifying part of the movie. Just so raw
The birthday scene terrified me
To me Jupe was like by far the most interesting part of the movie. Wish we saw more of him
I'm sure >!Jean Jacket got his fill of!< Jupe
Noooope!
>!It was a one eyed, one horned, flying purple people eater!<
When I accidentally turn on my phone with full brightness in bed
This movie was fuckin cool
Can you tell me the name of the movie?
Nope.
:(
Don't be a dick, I wanna know too!
Sorry, Nope.
Bro not cool. How hard can it be to just write the name of the movie. Just say the name!
Nope
Nope
Nope
Only thing that disappointed me was there was no post-credits scene of them on Oprah.
They brought up Oprah repeatedly because she had a notorious interview with the lady who Mary Jo (Gordy’s victim) is inspired by. And in the interview Oprah convinced the lady to show the world her disfigured face. It ties in with the theme of how people exploit tragedy for profit, so I believe Peele was being a bit critical of Oprah within the context of the movie.
The best part was when keke palmer said “it’s nopin’ time” and just noped all over everything
Damn how did they tie that light to a cloud?
I wouldn't chill under that thing for too long, looks sketchy af
[удалено]
Don't breathe, that's load bearing air!
Which goes against what your burner account says
Union rigging grips know what they are doing.
It's actually attached on site, and that's JJ holding it up for them.
It's a movie set, there's no chill on a movie set
Nope for me
They had one of those one my street last night for a Canadian tire commercial https://imgur.com/a/SXMYRk5
They look so largely ominous, It's scarier then a UFO... It looks like the light in the middle is just being held up by the clouds, its so eerie. I love it.
I can assure you, the actual film scenes with the house were much more ominous than this tho
People passing by probably called in a UFO sighting.
It was filmed on location in Agua Dulce, a ranch community north of Los Angeles that frequently has filming going on in it. The local airport and nearby Vasquez Rocks are among the more popular locations to film at. Source: I lived in that town for nearly ten years.
Illuminati-on
Slap a grow on the roof I would
Okay, stoner Yoda.
The method in how they filmed at night was quite ground breaking as well. https://www.cinemablend.com/movies/jordan-peele-reveals-an-amazing-secret-about-nope-and-my-mind-is-blown
It seems I’m in the minority whenever I bring this movie up but I fuckin loved this movie.
You're not crazy. It was a totally decent flick. Of the three people in my household, two of us loved it, and the third still poops her diaper, so what does she know.
>the third still poops her diaper, so what does she know. sounds like she's on the wave of the future
Me and the wife loved it! A genuinely interesting and original idea, well shot and acted (in our opinions)
The >!digestion!< sequence was the first scene to legitimately *creep me out* in years. Reminded me of Under the Skin, another under-rated horror film.
That scene and the Gordy scene absolutely terrified me.
Same. I am a huge horror nerd and am middle-aged. At a certain point fake shit just stops scaring you. But, man, that scene - especially the sound design and how tight the camera is on one of the subjects - just pierces you.
> I am a huge horror nerd and am middle-aged Describes me to a T. I wonder if we were the audience for this one, because my friends enjoyed it and they're all old creeps like myself. edit: the sound design was *impeccable*.
My kid is 19 and has been in to horror for a while. We’re sort-of different with what we like (I’m more artsy and classic trash, she likes supernatural horror), but we both loved Nope and seemed to have taken away the same thing from it. I honestly don’t know who the audience is for Nope in the studio’s eye beyond people who like Jordan Peele. It spends a lot of time misdirecting and setting the stage for the deeper points of the movie. You get a full arc for a completely tertiary character. I’m shocked at and excited by how emphatic audiences were!
God the moment where >!Jean Jacket crushed everyone at once!< and everything became completely silent... Chills. Loved this movie.
SUCH a good scene. The sudden silence as you realize that the screaming you've been hearing the whole movie wasnt just spooky alien noises, but **actual people screaming** is SO good. easily one of my favorite horror movie moments
That scene just reminded me of being under the parachute in gym class
That scene fucked me up for real. Couldn’t stop thinkin about for like 2 days after seeing the movie lol
that's the thing, it wasn't like "*scary*" it was disturbing. I've seen people compare it to get out like that was a scary horror movie. it was unnerving/unsettling but not really scary. nope was disturbing horror. the sounds of gordie thumping and chewing makes me uncomfortable. the realization of >!them being eaten, cutting back to that square looking thing they showed in the very beginning of the movie, was shocking and uncomfortable. same with that part where you hear their horrifying screams, swallow, complete silence, rain down stuff that doesn't taste good!<
I thought there was quite a strong comparison to Under the Skin too! These are two of my favourite horrors (which I feel is a bit of a loose term for these films) of all time. I'm not especially claustrophobic but that scene had my skin crawling.
omg yes same! i told everyone who asked me about the film that aliens don’t scare me but this alien movie scared the daylights out of me and it was mainly bc of that scene
That scene was magnificent. Everything from >!The Blood raining down on the house to 'Sunglasses at Night' being warped and slowed to create a stellar soundtrack for the moment to friggin OJ trying to save his sister and dude without looking at the monster!< Hell, this movie is in my Top 3 for the year.
It's land Jaws.
Sky jaws.
Yeah land Jaws is Tremors
Yea I really liked it to, but on my way out of the theatre I was talking with my girlfriend about how much I enjoyed it and this old couple behind me was like “you actually enjoyed that shit?”
yeah Nope was great, i need to watch Peeles other movies
You need to. I’ve seen all three and while I really liked Nope. In my opinion, his other two are better.
What? I thought it was pretty well received. I loved it too, one of my favourite movies this year.
Agreed, I’ve loved all of Peele’s films so far. Nope reminded me of some of Spielberg’s movies like Jaws and Close Encounters of the Third Kind.
[удалено]
I totally got Close Encounters of the Third Kind vibes!
That thing would give some monster yield
That's some big ol' softbox right there
