The Lego Ninjago Movie
I love your reactions, and since it’s spooky season, are you guys going to watch any Jordan Peele movies like Get Out, Us, Nope, and even Him (although that just came out in theaters so I don’t know if it’s on streaming services yet). I think you’ll enjoy it. They’re all kind of like psychological thrillers
I was having a hard time trying to figure out why Gladys was so familiar then it hit me she is crazy Jane from criminal minds
The writer/director said Alex taking care of his parents was inspired by him growing up with alcoholic parents. There were three addicts in the movie, Justine, Paul, and James. Also, Cregger's close friend and creative partner died in an accident related to using substances and Cregger is in recovery himself. The triangle in a circle is the AA symbol. He also said 217 is the room from The Shining. His interviews on his creative process are really interesting to listen to. I recommend them. Can't wait for his Resident Evil.
Another good movie that came out recently was "The Long Walk", definitely worth a reaction. Probably be better if you don't watch any trailers and go in blind.
Better than Sinners? 🙄 I swear the bar for whiteness is in hell.
The bar for whiteness...? What does that even mean? It's racist to have preferences? Wow, I guess your bar for victimhood is pretty low too.
Part of why is probably recency bias.
Ya'll don't need to run from cops, ya'll white you'll be fine
I interpreted the movie to represent child abuse rather than school shootings. Alex wasn’t angry enough, he was just vulnerable - which both Matthew and Gladys exploited.
Can u guys watch Gladiator 2 I'd love to see comparison between the reactions :) or the 300 is also awesome!
As someone that has autism on witchery (tried to be one for couple years but religious fear took over me) i can assure you most of this are actually accurate rituals and spells. She started witchcraft hardcore and that consumed her life energy and she stole it from other to heal. the ending was goofy but so good. Burning the tree would work better btw (or kill them instantly depending on the spell)
I love this phrasing for a special interest
hell yha
why have i watched this movie over 10xs
Can you guys watch Hereditary!
Paul was also pricked by a druggie needle and then fucked his friend... HIV is a thing.
Yeah its straight crazy that he didnt go to a doctor wtf. Especially after a faceful of used needles
One thing I only realized on the second watch was that 2:17 might've seemed random for a time, but Alex's 2 parents where originally under the spell, and then they added 17 kids. 2 Adults, 17 kids.
Well the difference, between a sorcerer and a wizard is generally that a wizard learns magic through the study of spells, while a sorcerer magic comes from a source like a pact with a demon or entity, they could be the reincarnation or a whole grocery list of ways that they got their powers. Traditionally sorcerer's magic comes to them more naturally without them having to learn as much. But REALLY people make up whatever they want, some people say sorcerer is anyone who practices magic. Some things like Harry Potter make it so wizard is like a race. Lord of The Rings says wizards are like angels or something. Marvel treats Dr. Strange like a wizard but they call him a sorcerer. Its all over the place. I'm sure there are some purist who only accept one distinction of the two. But in media everyone tends to make up their own rules.
How I've always understood it is Sorcerers are born with innate magic, Wizards learn through study, Warlocks have a pact and Witches use rituals.
Everyone in Harry Potter is both a Sorcerer and a Wizard. Born with magic but hone it through study of spells

2:08:58 Epilogue
LMAOOO 33:54 gotta be in the Sorta Stupid Jumpscare hall of fame! Someone plz bring back the To Be Continued meme using this!
That was so great. Right out of the classic "theater" reaction teasers they'd do to hype up horror movies.
This was brutal and awesome. I can already see people also downplaying this because it's similar to Tarentino style film making. Sinners was tried to be played down by people calling it a copy of From Dusk Till Dawn and I can see people trying to down play this as a Hateful 8 and Pulpfiction copy. This was amazing and it's own thing. This was awesome ❤️
Other than "Acts" there was nothing really Tarantino about this film.
I agree, im talking about how multiple "critics" tried to call 'Sinners' a 'From Dusk Till Dawn' copy
Okay, y'all need to see Matilda. One of the great movies of the 90's.
ALSO, 2:17 for the 217 republicans who voted no against gun reform recently.
I think the writer said he chose 217 because it's the room in The Shining.
2: 17 also alludes to the case of the mystery. 2= Justine and Alex and 17= The Missing Kids
Or Alex's parents who were under the original spell. 2 adults
Allegory for gun violence and negligent alcoholic parents (a child having to feed and care for his parents while trying to keep up a normal facade at school)
That makes things hit so much harder for me.
Difference between a wizard and a sorcerer, is that a wizard has a hat, IYKYK.
Many viewers and critics see Weapons as having allegorical elements or resonances with school shootings, but the filmmaker has also pushed back on calling it a direct metaphor. So more of a "see it how you see it" answer from him.
More a Thiller than a Horror
Didn’t think I was ever gona watch this movie, and here I am lol.
Still think Sinners was slightly better but overall a good movie.
I don’t think this will be start of a universe just a great one off.
barbarian is the first movie in this universe
Also starring Justin Long.
A subtle detail in the movie I enjoy I'd that the 2:17 also correlates to the 17 missing kids and the 2 that remained, Alex and Justine.
To start, this is a good horror movie, it was incredibly well done. I enjoyed it.

Now that that's out of the way, my big takeaway from this movie: This is very much hitting like this generation's The Blair Witch Project. Powerfully hard hitting the first blind watch, enjoyable enough on rewatches, dark rooms required for peak experience, both 'BASED ON A TRUE STORY'. I will say the biggest difference for me between the two is that there are many scary scenes sprinkled throughout this movie, whereas with TBWP it's the tension that gets you and the truly terrifying scene (to me) is in the last 45 seconds of the movie.

But all in all this was a great addition to the Horror genre.
the bros have never seen Matilda?? I feel like my heart just broke lol
but weapons, sinners and mickey 17 [which I also highly recommend] are easily my favorite three movies this year.
along with the allegory about school shootings, I think Creggar mentioned it also relating to addiction from his perspective, but for me, I also see it highlighting individualism in a way that no one even cared to notice or ask if Alex was even okay besides Justine. He was walking from school, the store and home for almost two months and no one notices? if HOA existed in this universe, they would've been at that house non-stop lmao
im gonna feel dumb for asking but I need context, is Boom unironically just a super genius when it comes to cars?
Yes and no a while back he started this bit of naming car brands, modle and year just as a joke, I don't know jack about cars so he be telling the truth or lieing
The way the kids run is meant to be the same pose as the photo of the girl from Vietnam who had been burned by white phosphorus btw
Also, don't fuck with Ms Rachel! She’s precious
im watching this shit from way farther than my screen and im still flinching 😭
Never thought I’d see the day that Silver Surfer, Thanos and Wong would star in a Horror Mystery Thriller together.
Also, I was hoping that this reaction would be coming soon! And I’m glad that today is that day!
Yall need to react to beautiful creatures the main character is the Paul the cop friend and it's so good
Since Erik asked:
The main difference is their source of power: a wizard learns magic through intense study, accumulating knowledge from tomes and spellbooks, while a sorcerer has innate magical ability from birth or a powerful ancestry, using a more intuitive, less preparatory form of magic. Wizards typically have a vast repertoire of spells they must prepare daily, whereas sorcerers know fewer spells but gain unique ways to manipulate them, such as Metamagic.
Just the teaser trailer of this alone (showing security cameras with the kids running in the street at night with their arms out without the arms moving whatsoever) was giving me goosebumps when it came out.
Fun fact: To further capitalize on the themes of the movie, theaters listed showtimes at 2:17, the same time the children in the film vanish.
Almost forgot that Thanos and the Silver Surfer are in this movie
And Wong
If Sean's house alarm sounds like Big Bird is getting slaughtered, I NEEEEED TO HEAR A SAMPLE
This is one of the only horror movies that I almost jumped out of my set in theaters
AAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!! I DIDNT EXPECT YOU GUYS TO DO THIS!!!! IM SO FUCKING EXCITED!!!!
One of my favorite movies from this year
