Cypher's Raincloud Follows Him Around
The Matrix has been debated ad nauseum. To few can look at the marginalized and defeated Cypher and see a conclusion as logical as Neo's search for the truth. A man who after 9 years in the lower ranks of the Nebakanezer saw the true cost. The comfort and security that the illusion of the matrix afforded him and those still in the vat baths plugged into it.

In 1923 a catastrophic earthquake decimated Tokyo in a fiery inferno and a young Akira Kurosawa and his brother was called to it out of curiosity. What he saw that day would echo in his influential films and inspire his work and his dreams, ultimately our movies.
The Haunted Stone Face

Silent comedy's great stone face and his trademark placid mask is not just a trademark, it is a symbol of his life as a true artist of silent film. It is also a key part of his greatest silent movies' comedy. A spin on if one laughs, and the world laughs with you; Weep, and you weep alone. Buster Keaton.

What if Bruce Lee Competed in the UFC
This video feels like it was written by AI. It is meandering, struggles to converge on an actual point and when it does, it is very repetitive, obvious and relies too much on clips from the movie to seem deep. I don't get what I just watched. The comic book section seems out of place for the subject of the video and the comparisons to a comic book felt over-wrought, I do not get why that was in the video, it did not add to the theme. There are buzzphrases like "The immersive testing of the connection between the viewer and the movie..." that genuinely do not seem to mean much. I was waiting for a point and it never came. Aspects of the movie are described but it never reaches some realization or thesis statement, the descriptions are not actually used for anything, nothing more was described than what a viewer would understand from just watching the film.

#1 The Demon Theory only works if you ignore about a third of the movie. #2 Shyamalan is not that subtle. If that was his intent, the devil himself would have shown up in the last confrontation
What would have to ignore?
My brain hurts when people say if they can travel through space why can’t they open doors and take on a planet full of water? For one they didn’t come for the water planet they came to harvest the humans and as for the doors why don’t you try opening a fully barricaded door
That guy is ridiculous Gene lebell never taught bruce lee grappling Bruce Lee knew that stuff way before Gene lebell was doing it people need to get their facts in order lol
Hes an OG weeaboo
I swear if Paul W Anderson touches Metroid.
The real spelling is Seagull 😮😂
He got the new Jordan's but they in his mom closet
The aliens don't even really have "trouble with doors". People took what Gibson's character said literally and forgot the specifics of what happened prior: the alien was LOCKED in the pantry and there was furniture in the way. M. Night's character said "locked him in". Furthermore, the alien managed to get out presumably on its own some time after hence why it was in their house at the end.
Why do people keep making videos using the making of this film and passing it off as their own?
So sagal and Trump went to the same school both taught how to lie
If stretch arm strong analyzed movies
Tarantino is one of the biggest hack filmmakers in the last 50 years. People praise him, but I never cared for his supposed best and most overrated film (pulp fiction), and have never remotely liked any of his others. I realized anything I kind of liked in them is a blatant ripoff of another. I'm not saying he's incompetent, because he clearly knows the formula to make money. I know he's on record saying he steals, but his films in particular are among the laziest and least creative of any major director that borrows/steals as Lynch says. Im glad more people are finally starting to realize this. Jackie Brown is among the worst of his films because he tried to be semi-original and realized he needs to steal ideas to make money. Not to mention the film is awful. It's clear that star power casting can always fool millions of people. He's garbage.
Nvm this just a del torro hellboy glazing
Language of the ghetto?
What a reach
Everyone in these comments are the exact type of people that would get floored in a seagal movie 😂
Big deal, they just go from being really stupid aliens to really stupid demons.

the problem with this is that ALL the aliens leave cuz of just normal water. no one says it has to be holy water. this theory only works if the alien they see is literally the only one.
They arent demons they are definitely aliens
If a baseball bat is an effective defensive weapon, wouldn't an AR15 be?
The major problem with the demon theory is; why did the demons arrive in ships? Wouldn't they just materialize from hell or wherever? This is further reinforced by the fact that some got left behind when they fled. They were also picked up on radios. Why would demons use radio waves to communicate?
Do we ever actually see any alien ships or is it just assumed because of lights in the sky? Haven't watched the movie in awhile but I don't think they ever show the aliens using any tech at all. As for radio waves... what do paranormal investigators use when trying to pick up this type of stuff? There are countless examples of supposedly demonic voices being picked up that way. Whether it's real or not is beside the point. There is a long history of using radio waves and white noises to detect the presence or communicate with supernatural entities.
@@masterdisciple6542 We see the lights arrive and then a bird falls out of the sky, dead after running into a cloaked object in broad daylight. These things came from outside the atmosphere and then hovered, cloaked over the cities. We never actually see the ships but what did the bird run into if not a transportation craft?
Ships that are light orbs being a means of their transportation
The Bible even calls Satan the Prince of the power of the air...
The lights are protective angels. The crop circles are the gateways from hell.
I saw this in theatres when I was 12. One of the worst decisions I’ve ever made in my life.
This is my fav movie, I’ve watched it way to many times for my own sanity. It’s an absolute masterpiece in its production. I love this movie, and this theory kinda makes sense. Thanks for sharing a theory on my favorite movie
The cow
6:03 JACKY BROWN Thanks for this Video!
Some people think that every alien sighting/story/experience is demons. Always had been.
I agree ive never liked steven seagal
Awesome content. One of my favorite movies
I went from being terrified of this movie as a kid, to laughing at his reaction to seeing an alien/demon
More like alien Vampires they have to be invited through a door angle, with a weakness to holy water.
right in the sisters lol the ole johnson!
When I saw this movie back in the day (1986) I never considered it a 'horror' I thought it was something else entirely, although I still can't say for certain what that it. It's an underrated classic andcertainly one of the iconic 80s movies that has never been replicated since, a true masterpiece of suspense, mystery and stunned amazement for 38 years......
When you are menace, intimidation, and indifference personified, you don't explain yourself. The script gets this. John Ryder doesn't explain himself to Jim. Certainly not to anyone else. And the audience is not given such courtesies either.
1:32 "Work again, work again, jiggety jig! Gooood MORNing, J.F.!" 3:42 the detective questioning Rutger Hauer is the same actor who played Quark on *Deep Space 9*
THEY SHOULD HAVE used C Thomas Howell as The Hitcher in the Remake,
why? he would have been totally miscast.
Why would demons need spaceships and crop circles? Lmao
Portals and interdimensional travel. That was super hard bro got any more for me?
“There’s a killer on the road” 🎵
jackie brown sucks, and your theory of circular "book ending" is convoluted foolishness.
Jackie was mediocre
Meh I like it more than Death Proof.
His overacting wouldn't work, what would work is his serious work from movies like Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. It needs his best of the downer world, not the happiest. Still his style is comedy fantasy right? So put him as a Justice League's Batman's as the Joker. Give the universe the tone it needs without leaving the crazy boundaries it needs.
YOU FULL OF BULSHIT!!!
I always wondered if this movie and the tv series the hitchhiker from 1983 was connected?
FUN FACT: originally his name was actually Steven Seagull - 100% true! He changed his name by deed poll to Seagal because that was a name he'd seen recently in a museum and it was a close name to his so he justified it as more of an 'adjustment' than a name change. The man's an absolute joke and a fraud just like his hair, he was half bald ages 30 but full head of hair 20 years later and he still denies that he wears a wig - another true story! 🤷🏼♂️Facts!🤷🏼♂️
Never understood how he even got in films
Top notch lying skills. Remember that he's from a time when people couldn't google check the nonsense you was talking about. If he grew up in today's world he wouldn't have been able to even get started in the movie world I guarantee it.
Steven seagal is a fibber lol i did like under siege though lol
I discovered this film about three years ago and been in love with it ever since. Rutger Hauer was the perfect choice to play the antagonist of this film.
How is he of Italian descent but you said he’s half Irish and half Jewish? Only two halves in a whole sir ! But you’re right he does suck
I still don't understand the meaning of the literal crop signs, in both senarios, whether the creatures were aliens or demons. What was the purpose of the creation of the crop signs ??
