When he says "He's Here. Laeddis... I can feel him" in the corridor in block C, crazy guy jumps forward and tells him "Tag! You're it!" Laeddis gets angry and starts chasing him.

Huh

[@javohirdev5173]

nice one

[@jocelyn3384]

this movie is downright a work of art.

[@isitoveryet9525]

The cup definitely wasn’t an oopsie. It was portraying Teddy’s deep seeded phobia of water….he couldn’t even stand the site of it, so he would just block it out.

[@Myers369]

I feel like they re-upload this video twice a year.

[@bbsy1]

They changed some of them.

[@feck2594]

You mean like every video they do . Seriously it's like they make 40 original videos about four months apart then rearrange and rename them five times each .

[@MikeScott55]

Maybe that’s the gimmick. They do the same video but keep changing it slightly to make it feel like Shutter Island. 😂

At the end, he didn't come back to his delusions instead he'd rather be dead that lived with the guilt that he killed his family.

[@dx180]

I wasn't 100% sure about that but that's what I thought, Cause he got up and walked in front of them.

[@NASser352]

damn, that makes the ending even better

[@mariusmatei2946]

Lobotomized, not (necessarily) dead!

[@TheEASTSIDECHICANO]

Wtf makes this a masterpiece huh!? This movie is fucking pointless as hell!

[@PlayyBoyyFloyd]

Really have to watch this twice to get 2 different perspectives First watch was through the eyes of Ted Second watch was through the eyes of everyone else

[@lazeaton2753]

I love this movie , one thing I've noticed was that his tie changes from black and white to colour the n keeps changing till he blows up the car

[@wade_says]

Excellent video with so much detail. Really a brilliant film.

[@minji7755]

When in reality everyone we thought were bad people were actually good and kind people lol such a unexpected movie I bet no one would predict the end

[@galala4031]

lmao i did predict it

[@Paul_Simon]

I'm not comparing because the film led me to the book, but if you haven't, read it! Both are outstanding!!! Avoid the abridged audiobook for obvious reasons, but even there, both readers are excellent. One format helps the other for Shutter Island every time!

[@petermontoya1796]

I hear you. Dennis Lahane wrote about these "missed" things in the book. Whilst reading, I didn't get what they meant, until the end. That's a great writer !! Yeah, audio books are fine, but an actual hardcover book is best. I'd like to see "The Given Day" made into a movie.

[@DetectiveJones]

Was JUST about to rewatch this movie before bed lol thats bizarre

[@tamekaphillips9997]

I came to say the same thing! I’m halfway through rewatching right now and the notification for this video popped up.

[@horseclock6454]

Wait.. uploaded 3 hours ago? Am I on shudder island??!

[@frankt285]

Shuttle Island n, Identity are 2 good movies.. 🎬

[@jordanpride4674]

im sure they talked about the missing glass by now?

[@gothgurlfriend]

Good to see Lee Scott branching out from rapping...

[@Tomsense76]

I noticed the missing water cup/glass on first watching and have only heard semi satisfactory explanations....

[@Tomsense76]

@@c.ladimore1237 right....it's so over the top obvious opposed to the hints that the rest of the movie throws at you that it REALLY doesn't fit in with the rest. Play acting with props, with some slip ups...but then this where someone gives her an imaginary glass of water and she pretends to drink it?

[@Christina_Cage]

A thing nobody mentions is that in the scene with Noice in cell block c Noices actions are inconsistant. Hes scratchin his head from one angle then has his hand on the cage from the other angle

[@bbsy1]

Didn’t notice the guards, but that’s a great point. Both points 😁I always say of this movie that it has a million clues.

[@kellywaters643]

everyone in that time era wore oversized coats. zoot suits anyone?

[@dx180]

Agree. I didn't feel like that was supposed to be a clue. Just what they wore back then.

[@kabouterwesley83]

Especially law officers.

[@SophiaAnn12345]

Haha teddy wanted to play cops

[@joesssaucey]

the cgi was quite obvious lol even the boat scene was green screened and you can tell. it’s great tho

[@GreaseLightning02]

I feel like that was deliberate to somewhat subtly illustrate that the world shown is not real.

[@joesssaucey]

@@GreaseLightning02 hm. u could argue that yea

[@dylonatkinson6054]

At the beginning where does he think he was coming from. It starts on the boat but where was he 10 min before that ect

[@bswearer]

The biggest clue is actually at the very beginning... the bandage on Teddy's forehand right above his left eye. When the bandage is shown removed later on, you can see scaring from a wound. Why caused it? A lobotomy. That's because Teddy had ALREADY been lobotomized to prepare him to be reset by the "doctors" through the usage of drugs and gaslighting. Teddy was real. Everything Teddy experienced happened. Teddy's investigation into the MKUltra style military/intelligence experiments was what was really happening. But they had tried to gaslight him into believing he was Andrew and that the reality was just a delusion. At the end, "Chuck" (wasn't actually a marshal, but part of the operation, hence not knowing how to remove the holster) was signaling to the doctors that the lobotomy + drugs + gaslighting efforts failed...

[@MrTumnus1987]

Wait….What culture isn’t just wrestling!?!?

[@sophiathekitty]

Ya know.... I think a lot of point and click adventure games puzzles and their clues end up functioning more like the twists in movies that you can see how they were foreshadowed on as second viewing.... But on the first viewing weren't blatant enough to completely give it away beforehand... Like that was my experience with grim fandango.... First time though the puzzles seemed like they were all moon logic... Second time through I caught most of the puzzle clues that should have helped solve the puzzles.

[@petermontoya1796]

Did you guys even read the book ?? Read the book first, then you will understand why, what or when things happen(ed). It's almost like you guys never even know that this is a Dennis Lahane novel ?? C'mon now.

[@TheAeris07]

I didn't know it was based on a book, but yeah if you are analyzing a movie mentioning the book is a good idea.

[@petermontoya1796]

@@TheAeris07 Oh yeah, Dennis Lahane is a fantastic author. Other books into movies, "Gone Baby Gone" - "Mystic River" - "The Drop" - "Live By Night" If you like suspense, you're gonna love his books. Free at your local library.

all i remember about this movie was that I guessed the twist from the trailer and was massively disappointed when I saw it.

[@MrSmith-rq2jb]

I went with my friend and I guessed the big twist in the first 5 minutes. Cops in the 50s and now shave.

[@beyondtheillusion333]

Literally every point you made could go toward him not being crazy too

[@robvegas9354]

Good movie! Kind of worked it out about 30 minutes in. Much better than the other trash twisty movies like The Prestige where they spell it out in the first minute.

[@dx180]

Shutter Island is a great movie but so is The Prestige in my opinion. The ending surely was a surprise to me.

[@kd9-3.77]

How many times is this exact same video going to get made? Not a single new point. 1:1 to the countless other "DID YOU KNOW.." videos out there.

[@aaronbird314]

Re-uploaded video... At least make it about a good movie. I knew the twist almost immediately. Not worth the time to watch.
