EPIC! | Falling In Reverse - "Prequel" (REACTION!!!)

[@Trashman.69420]

Oh my... THANK YOU for being the first and ONLY reactor out of the dozens I've watched to make a point that CRUCIFICTION was around and used long BEFORE and AFTER the biblical Jesus story. THANK YOU. I literally fist pumped and screamed YESS! as soon as you said it. Thank YOU! Well done. Now if only I can find people to NOTICE and interpret the fact that the angels appear cyborg/machines. I'm curious of your take on that too, because you were ON POINT with this reaction.

[@LoccdWolfReacts]

I really appreciate that. I noticed that too but wanted to watch again to see what it could mean and my take on the angels and demons being cyborgs is how society is with what they deem is right and wrong. cyborgs are created to listen to some type of creator and if that creator is trying to control what's good and bad and control the narrative I would want to break free from it all and just simply "Do Me' thus his blasting both of them away...Hope that makes sense lol

[@Trashman.69420]

@@LoccdWolfReacts W take. Appreciate you taking time to reply like that! Keep up the great work, my dude! Side note: Regarding a lot of "Dark Side" Star Wars esque imagery - I'm fairly certain Ronnie is a fan of the sith code. Look it up if you're not familiar, it matches his personality and messaging 100%. Replace "Force" with "Truth" at the end.

[@carolynfrancis-mclucas6185]

@Trashman.69420 I think Ronnie's personality was shaped by bikers since his biker dad raised him and his brother ( also a biker). I'm certain he was influenced by hanging around the mc club. When have you seen a biker back down from a fight, or take crap from anybody. Sounds like our Ronnie. ☺️

[@rawkmode6315]

@@LoccdWolfReacts Yeah, the scene directly follows the story of Yeshua (Jesus.) Heaven and Hell fight over his soul after his death, but he rejects them both since he belongs to neither. He then returns to the world in a doomed attempt to save humanity not only from itself, but from the torments inflicted on it by the Mad God that claims dominion over the purgatory of our dis-reality.

[@I_am_Jesus_of_Nazareth]

​@@rawkmode6315 that's a w take on the metaphor

[@reddiamond5491]

I like to think the scene with the angels is showing that everyone has good and bad in them and him blowing them away is him refusing to be defined by other people's way of thinking.

[@sally8704]

I like your explanation on this, especially the breaking away. The cyborgs aren’t pure angels/demons because they represent people in society who believe that they follow the chosen path and they expect others to follow them. He breaks away because he is a free thinker and doesn’t want to conform to societies demands.

[@captbunnykiller1.0]

That is also my view. He doesn't want to submit to either side and be saved by abiding their rules.

[@Reactivecat.]

I've watched so many reactions of this and you just GET it. Your whole explanation of the analogy is 100% right. A lot of people will jump to conclusions about it soley being about religion but as you said, he's been crucified for educating people and standing up for what is right. Loved your reaction 🥰

[@LoccdWolfReacts]

Thank you for this! Made my heart warm.

[@BB_gi86]

Exactly what I thought when I saw this reaction!!!!!

[@BB_gi86]

YOU GET IT!!! Most people didn't get it. Specially about the crucifixion. In their reactions people act like they get Ronnie but most of them are actually miles away from understanding him. Like when the thorn crown disappears becoming a part of him (his tattoo) and most of the reactors miss it 😓

[@Ericsaidful]

That’s a huge opening compliment. Hope Ronnie sees that because you know that’s what this is supposed to be about.

[@LoccdWolfReacts]

All Love!

[@andrewallison376]

Speak on it. I am a practicing Roman Catholic from a strict Irish home and I think FIR’s work is true artistry in the best sense. Genius, lyrically, musically and in video!

[@andrewallison376]

I take zero offense to those images.

[@Ericsaidful]

Michelangelo and DiVinci are loving that painting man. Perfect renaissance encapsulation. Goes with the classical presentation of the song.

[@RedHoodFH]

Props to you for being the first reactor I've seen to say slim shady vibes and not NF since ronnie said multiple times eminem was an inspiration of his

[@LoccdWolfReacts]

I say 99% Shady vibes i can see where they would say NF but for like 1% of the song lol to me that is

[@RedHoodFH]

@@LoccdWolfReacts yeah its way more Shady, Marshall Mathers LP2 vibe

I thought the same for the nf vibes. Again I think the transition to the cross and the drums and guitars coming in is flawless. Takes my breath away every time. Can't wait for December too. 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@Amy_just_loves_music]

Loved your reaction ❤ This video is 🔥. As "Prequel" the beginning, we do have a movie. He started out on drugs and did what he did. He did his time, got clean, and became the genius he's always been. When he realized who he was, he got crucified by the industry. As you said, there were many crucified before and after Jesus. The movie continues in Ronald, when he's on the platform with Tech9 and the armor was put on to go below and fight evil. Then Watch the World burn, he had on the armor, then Last Resort Reimagined...so many Easter eggs.

[@VioletPaynekiller]

@amydavies2529 I do not think the political stuff is actually political, what do you think... I am not great breaking down stuff like everyone.

[@sourgir-wh6xd]

😂 I am a recovering people pleaser (I still slip up sometimes lol). And it's Ronnie's lyrics that have helped me to open my eyes. I was taught to smile and be polite ... Which isn't a bad thing... but when you mistake being polite, with letting people walk all over you, or, allowing others to think everything's fine, when it's not, bc you don't want to disappoint them by sounding rude, then you're kind of being foney. I have people pleased for so long, that I've ended up resented them for taking advantage of me, when really they're only acting the way I taught to act towards me. I don't say no as brazen as Ronnie does lol But I have learned to tell people No and not be gilted into something I don't want to do and/or speak up when I don't agree with someone who doesn't have my best interest at heart❤ Ronnie may have a tough exterior, but you'll never wonder about where he stands or how he feels about something❤

[@TiffanyPotts-g8s]

I’m sure I’ve come across your channel a time or two in the past but the way you broke this down was FLAWLESS. The knowledge base is definitely up there with the Knox Hills of KZbin and that’s the ultimate compliment if you ask me

[@GamerDaSkater]

As a Christian, The crucifixion part was a metaphor.Ronnie feels crucified for his beliefs and standing on what he believes is right. The imagery is beautiful and how often we all feel. Being torn between the good and evil inside us. And those that are trying to find our way authentically, become targets of those that blindly follow one side or another. “Dont be a sheep”. That’s the meaning behind that. You’re welcome 😇 great reaction !

[@LoccdWolfReacts]

Exactly like I said in the reaction "don't be a sheep". Thank you for your agreement in what was seen. It was alot deeper than people will see and try to uproar.

[@Steve-sp4rx]

Great song and unbelievable video. I think he is specifically uses Christian imagery because most people in the western world can relate to it or at least know of it. That makes symbols like the Cross a powerful object to use. Marilyn Manson would do similar things, admittingly, in his music videos back in his younger days. I'm Christian and while I'm sure it would probably offend some, it doesn't bother me...I don't worship the cross or angels.

[@spedwyrm7427]

I honestly think alongside that, the fact that he keeps being crucified in the public eye lends a lot of credence to that being a secondary reason as well.

These last 3 to 4 years the world has went to s@#% and has been turned face down. We need help!

[@IAmFirstborne]

You caught everything Ronnie was putting down, man. I'm subscribing. You have an excellent mind. To me, the cross isn't important because Jesus was crucified on one. It was a COMMON practice, just as you said. Instead, Jesus was important for going on the cross, so that others need not do so. While I am not a religious person, I once was. I am still an ordained minister, and I am still a student of theology. Never once did I get the impression that the cross itself was important. Yet, just as you predicted, some folks did indeed misunderstand this whole scene we see Ronnie get crucified in. Religion is worthless if it blinds you. Keep these insights coming, my man!

[@LoccdWolfReacts]

@@IAmFirstborne Sheeeeeesh PREACH

[@carolynfrancis-mclucas6185]

He is being crucified, persecuted and prosecuted, for speaking out. And that makes people nervous.

[@Divergent.Spirit]

AWESOME reaction!! It's so nice to see reactions that stop and look at the symbolism instead of having a knee-jerk reaction to certain parts. I have a theory, and it could be wrong lol....but the I think the angels/demons being mechanical allude to them being man-made, so it's a man-made version of good and evil trying to judge him. When he blows them away it's him chosing his own path and "breaking the chains".

To me this feels a lot like Tupac when he spoke out of the system and the things that have already been done before. Tupac said it’s on us to change the way we do things, because the old wasn’t working. I think Ronnie and the band are doing something that is needed so much to this younger generation and some of us older. By using music we can raise awareness and provocation. It’s our job to stand up but we have to look at things and find out if we are being fed BS. I love FIR and think the message is meaningful beyond those words. Be kind to each other ✌️

[@MarleyDay]

♥ well done ♥ my friend asked whether I see blasphemy... I said my Savior was not the first, middle, or last person to be crucified, nor did Ronnie behave as my Savior while on his cross, so I think there is more to it. I also caught the verse 'Cause all our gods abandoned us' which is plural and lower case, so I thought it was referring to everything we make into gods rather than The Living God. I'm AuDHD and watch reactions to understand more fully. You detailed more of the nested threads which I needed. Thank you for the blessings.
