[@danielwatcherofthelord1823]

Yeah you definitely should legitimize a sequels existence by adding or unveiling more to the plot. To just present a movie that rehashes old events is like a hamster on a wheel, even if it's entertaining. A sequel should always bring more story to the table. Otherwise, it appears like a cash grab.

Dead Set does not get enough credit. It is one of my all time favorites and i find it genuinely scary.

[@garyking1986]

*SPOILER* Honestly, I liked how subtle the characterisation of Joseph Quinn's character is. He's wearing this big, ill-fitting suit in the big city, saying that he's studying law because it's what he's SUPPOSED to do. Then, at the end of the film, we discover that he's secretly a talented magician with great confidence on stage. I like that the film never explicity states this, but we can infer that he's always wanted to be a magician but his family pressured him to America to pursue a steady career as a lawyer. He feels very lost in his life, and now that he has recognised the apocalypse is beginning, he feels that all paths for him are coming to an dead end. This is why he just decides to join Sam in her simple quest for some pizza. (Btw, props to my girlfriend who pretty much pointed this all out to me.)

I haven't seen it yet, but I'm surprised that Stuckmann, the number one fan of Alien, wants to know more about the purpose of these invading aliens. What did the alien want in the Alien movies? We assumed it was like a shark: It moves, it eats, and it reproduces. What is the motivation of a regular ant? I'm sure they have one, but we don't need to know it to understand the problem of them infesting your house. Threats in nature don't need a purpose. The drama comes from how this problem affects the characters beyond the primal instinct to stay alive.

[@eyespy3001]

I mean, you kind of need to know what the ants in your house are going after in order to stop the infestation. Carpenter ants are eating your wood floors. Regular ants are going after the blueberry that fell behind your stove. If you don’t deal with those sources, you’re just going to keep getting ants.

[@cokemachine62590]

@@eyespy3001Not every story told needs to be a “save the world by defeating the aliens” plot. Sometimes, just watching interesting characters in interesting situations battle to just survive is enough.

[@seankeller1560]

I thought it was obvious seeing how they arrived, they are a bio weapon. The purpose of which is to get the population of the planet to the point. They can no longer fight back or killed off entirely making the planet ripe for the taking .

[@allgoesround]

For me, an alien in space wanting to kill you is easier to roll with than aliens invading earth (their intention is more interesting because it can be more than just killing). Having two previous movies creating the mystery surrounding the creatures and their invasion also creates an expectation of a reveal of at least something when this movie takes place at the beginning. It being a third movie of a franchise also adds to the expectation. I still enjoyed it, but I couldn't help wanting to know more.

[@eyespy3001]

@@cokemachine62590 Sure. Agreed. However, if you make a _series_ of movies set in the same universe, in the same timeline, at some point, retreading the same plot is going to get REALLY boring. That’s why the Predator series hasn’t really produced anything good after the second movie.

[@coolnerdlll6053]

I maintain they should have waited to make this until after A Quiet Place Part III because of Part II's cliffhanger ending, but I'm still excited to see this. Lupita especially is a modern acting legend and I can't wait to see her in another horror movie after she blew me away with Us.

I saw this last night and I disagree with Chris on this. It is my favorite movie of the three and I found the characters to be even more emotionally compelling than the characters presented in the first two films. Also I felt the movie presented answers to the questions surrounding the motivation of the creatures and especially questions surrounding the man Chris refers to, even if the answers aren't 100% certain. I really love the film Pig, and like Pig this movie also moved me to tears (which I was not expecting out of an installment from A Quiet Place!)

*SPOILERS* Having just gotten out of the movie, I’m going to disagree with your point on Joseph Quinn’s character. His parents being overseas is only a small part of it. During the scene in Sam’s apartment, he also mentions going to NYC for law school and says something along the lines of “It’s the one thing I was meant to do,” which implies that either he dedicated his whole life to it, or he comes from a family of lawyers. When it’s ripped away from him in seconds, he feels like he has nothing left to live for until stumbling upon Frodo by pure happenstance. I found his journey of finding reasons to keep going, even during the end of the world, really resonant.

[@aerieee]

Totally agree. They both gave each other what they needed, Sam’s last few wonderful moments in the city she loved and Eric’s hope and survival. It was beautiful.

I actually read that line, the "it's the one thing I was meant to do" line as meaning he's been a screw up his whole life, and this is the one and only thing he was supposed to do and now it's down the drain. I think either way, his character has a bit more depth and I enjoyed Quinn's performance.

It was over in ten minutes. Idk if you guys have low standards or if you're doing mental gymnastics to try to convince yourself it was ok. Huge disappointment.

[@alethiamillner5603]

I kept dosing off. Their was a group of like 5 teens that actually got up during the jazz club scene and started yelling about how boring it was and they left. Normally that kind of behavior would piss me off but I honestly sympathized with them.

[@chadsjohnson4876]

If it were any longer I would have walked out myself. We were sold an alien invasion blockbuster and they gave us a pg-13 character study. Watching everyone try to intellectualize it as if were some deep moving story has been pretty comical as well. Call it what it is. A shit movie.

[@Tom-ev8mk]

Question for all: Did anyone else feel frustrated with the inconsistency of how sensitive the monsters were to sound? For example when the nurse manages to successfully turn of the generator with no monsters showing up, but then his shirt rips and it’s slashing time? Or in the final chase scene when Frodo is being carried down the pier by his butler, the creatures hear a can rattling over the sound of car alarms and glass and metal getting smashed and all of them turn and bolt towards them? I also noticed immediately that creatures seemingly don’t react at all to sounds caused by their own kind, which would be fine if it was explained but it is never addressed

[@escargotiskuhol]

Nothing makes sense, even the whole story

[@ZeeroDubs]

Couldnt agree more. I was asking the same questions the whole movie. Sometimes they could seemingly echolocate like a bat with pinpoint accuracy while other times they just seems completely blind, flailing at any dumb noise they heard. Also, they could traverse the space to land on earth (while blind, but whatever) but couldn't overcome a canal of sea water.

[@TweezerShred]

Some just hear better than others 😂

That is an explanation that could work, there’s been nothing so far saying every single one of the aliens were the exact same when it comes to their hearing.

2:22 minutes of mattress talk, 5:10 minutes of breaking down a film. I miss when this channel had more passion, and would be delighted to share film insider industry views. Not to mention give actual thoughts about performance and storytelling while grading movies. Seems having millions of subscribers and a desire to be liked in the industry has drained his inner child that loved to talk film. In his old videos his eyes would light up as if eager to share his joy of cinema. I miss those days.

Stopped watching Chris Stuckmann basically since he started the whole Shelby Oaks thing. His reviews aren't reviews but some sort of patting the director on the back and saying nice things about him. He's playing it way too safe and naturally he has to suck up to the machine to succeed so his reviews have suffered. Hope I'm proven wrong in the future though.

[@atp8108]

Idk why you felt the need to announce this. Sorry you’re not happy, but also too bad lol. There are plenty of other movie review channels out there.

It’s a prequel so it’s not going to progress anything. Why they came to earth? To clearly kill its inhabitants. For food or some type of resource

[@johnnyappleseed8127]

Nothing wrong with wanting to know more about the creatures but the unknown is what makes it scary and unnerving. Knowing to much about them takes away the mystery of them. Look at the Aliens franchise, it was horrible when they gave us the backstory of Xenos. To me i like the “ if it ain’t broke don’t fix it” mentality. This movie is a solid prequel that’s falls just a tad below the other ones. They played it safe and kept what works. I think it should be one more to where it’s still has the same tone but have it more action packed. In other words we get the last movie to be what Aliens was to Aliens. We get to see the military learn their weakness and fightback while still maintaining the horror elements…..like Aliens.

[@jonfreeman9682]

Hey don't knock aliens. I loved Prometheus and Covenant when they gave us so much backstory on the aliens and how it started from the black goo. But I know some fans didn't like Prometheus as there was no aliens so Ridley Scott added lots of aliens in Covenant but for some reason not enough fans showed up. A new alien movie is coming out so let's support it or Disney is pulling the plug on the franchise.

[@johnnyappleseed8127]

@@jonfreeman9682 We shouldn’t support something just to support it but yes the new movie looks good. I just hope it delivers and don’t have woke moments in it. Covenant and Prometheus are good Syfy movies but horrible Aliens movies if that makes sense.

[@jonfreeman9682]

​@@johnnyappleseed8127 Totally agree. Bob Iger said in a recent call he's excited for the new alien movie coming out but will review the entire movie slate so movies TV shows and properties that don't make money they will not put anymore money making them to turn Disney around. So this could be alien's last dance if we don't support it. Alien has always been niche so it doesn't make much money.
