i feel like the monotone way that both maddie and owen spoke was intentional. it was to portray even deeper than the visuals, how miserable and out of place they both feel in the midnight realm. and also, as a trans and autistic person, it didn’t feel weird or annoying to me at all. it actually felt quite spot on to how a lot of people i know talk. i think you must spend all your time with allistic (neurotypical) people, because people do indeed talk like that, even if you haven’t experienced it personally.

the ending was perfect. It didn't try to make you leave just satisfied, it made you feel the feelings of the character and I respect them for that cause usually sad or other-than-happy endings are hard to leave with.

There have been movies about transness and trans people before, but there's never been one that's been able to so thoroughly convey the *experience* of being trans the way this movie has. That feeling of being lost and empty, of knowing something is wrong, something about you is different, but that you can't put your finger on it. The way you look for connection to something that speaks to you in that way, and how that often ends up being various bits of media. And you don't know *why* those things speak to you, just that they do. You hold on to them, even after they've lost some of the magic, because what else is there? Until finally everything you've used to try and help you cope isn't enough anymore. That's the reading I have of the ending. Owen/Isabel attempt to just be who they were convinced to be just isn't working anymore, and they have to know. This is the "egg cracking" moment often talked about, that they understand who they are inside. It's why I see the movie's ending as optimistic and hopeful. Sure, there's no instant embracing of their true identity, because it's still not easy to move forward. But they know what's ahead now, and there is still time.

5:47 People do talk like that at their age! At least everyone in my school did, it took me way back and made me cringe a bit to remember, which is one of the themes of the movie (embarrassing/odd nostalgia), that's for the poetic/fake deep part, and the monotone part just adds to the neurodivergent undertones

A lot of people complain about the monotoned dialogue and pacing, but I honestly didn't notice anything out of the ordinary in either case. I thought the performances were compelling and the film's pacing was just right. I also don't think the film is quite as weird as people claim. It's not like it's Eraserhead with obscure and impenetrable symbolism and metaphor. It's actually straight forward and everything that happens in it is perfectly intelligible and justifiable in that it serves the story. Its premise is magical realist and I suspect a lot of people who think it's weird just didn't understand this about it.

Yes, I completely agree with you. It makes perfect sense if you take it literally. It's no weirder than rewriting the world to make Dawn be Buffy's sister, even though Dawn wasn't even a person to begin with. I also feel like it has a lot in common with The Matrix. (Which makes sense, since both are trans allegories.) Both are about whether you are brave enough to question your reality. I see this film as the answer to, "What if Neo took the blue pill?"

I have to say that I loved the way this movie made me feel, even when I had no idea where the plot was trying to go. I recommend it to anyone who ever felt the joy of escaping reality through any form of media, whether it's TV, books, D&D, video games, etc, especially if you shared that experience with a friend. I graduated High School in 1997, so this was huge nostalgia for me and I often miss the tube TV sets and older programming. I do love how this movie can be viewed many different ways in terms of what is real and what is not. One thing I found interesting was how the two main characters would physically approach one another, like they were using an extra level of caution as to not startle one another's sensitivities. Maddy in particular would move closer to Owen in stages and I think this represented their increasing comfort levels with each other while they were generally not comfortable being near other people.

I absolutely loved this movie, so much so it’s going somewhere in my top 3 of all time. I love the “what if” aspect the film presents. What if Maddy was right? What if this world is all just a lie and you have to die here so you can be reborn as your true self? But what if it’s not? What if it’s not worth taking that step? At first I didn’t like the ending, but upon thinking about it more, Owen’s ending is a message to the viewer: don’t be like him. Don’t live your life wondering what would have happened if you’d have taken that risk. Don’t live your life wishing you could be something else. Do something to change yourself and become the best version of yourself you could be.

As a fan of Gregg Araki, David Lynch, films like Donnie Darko, I'm Thinking of Ending Things and certain 90s TV... this was wonderful. And it was a surprise what way it appealed to me versus the trailer. I did think it was going to be more like Color Out of Space in part with the color scheme I admit. It's not viewer friendly for those eerie "out of place" feelings. And while I think the ending hurts in the way it's "unsatisfying", they set it up kind of making it the right ending.

Going in blindly, no knowledge on production, i felt it was about nostalgia and being confused about what is real - How we would look back on childhood memories being better but in retrospect it may look campy and cringy. After looking up what others and the director have said about, i can see how it was about a person's desciptive journey going thru a transition. Either way, it was a great watch.

I loved this film, I'm not a trans or queer person but I really connected with Owen and how much he feels uncomfortable in his life. I have always been a very shy and insecure person but particularly the first quarter of my life I would say was the worst. So I definitely saw myself in him. The ending just broke me and I haven't been able to stop thinking about it, particularly the last scene of him apologizing for inconveniencing others with his outburst in the party, who don't even acknowledge him or pay attention to him. It was too brutal in my opinion to end in such a sad note.

Having seen t his film a few times now and having parsed the symbolism in it, I think it's easily the best film that has come out this year. It's actually not weird at all. Everything in the film is there for a specific dramatic purpose. If you get the idea behind the movie, you see that and what formerly seemed weird and stylized actually serves the story. It's not cool kid art film obscurantism and irony at all but really the opposite. It's totally sincere and heart on your sleeve storytelling.

I Saw The TV Glow is the nightmare of the Blue Pill existence with failing life-support system, and the full knowledge that the real world; your truth; is slipping further out of reach.

I could have completely misunderstood the film, but it seemed like it was trying to say that things will never feel as real or important as they did when you were a child, that life is going to get worse and worse until you die so you may as well k!11 yourself and hope you get a better afterlife. It seemed to say that you will spend your life trying to relive that part of childhood where you genuinely believed that you would be as important or powerful as the people on TV, have never ending bonds with others, but the reality is that you will feel awful and unfulfilled until you reach the end of your uninteresting and meek life. Frankly, I came away from the movie finding it depressing, hopeless, and a waste of potential. It had great artistic direction and cool themes like replacing spirituality with media, or media worship in general. Alternate realities and determining whether to believe the metaphysical or not are also interesting concepts. I just wish it was not so depressing. It showed only two endings for humans to take: self delete, or have an awkward and uninteresting life filled with regret for the things you didn't decide to do while you had the chance. What BS.

I dont actually think you got the movie because theres an ambiguity in whether maddy actually dies or if she goes back to the pink opaque. The underlying theme of not truly living in your own body is one many people experience and is deeply queer. While you could have that takeaway i just viewed it as 2 sides of a flawed coin. We also dont know what he does with what he cuts out his stomach at the end. He mentiones it at the beggining. I believe it signifies hin truly recognizing his self worth.

@@JoeMama-vg7ef Thank you for taking the time to reply with this. It's true that we have no way to know if she returned to the Pink Opaque, which is the same for death for us in the real world. We don't know what happens; it could have been the Pink Opaque, it could have been a regular death in their version of the "real" world (the world created by Meloncholy). I do see how the story focuses on different ways to either accept or repress one's identity, and how both characters are shown as flawed perspectives that we can strive to become better than. Admittedly, even taking it as solely a euphemism for realizing and living with one's identity or changing it to fit in where you think you need to, it is still a bleak story in my opinion. I was mainly commenting on it from it's own universe, beyond the metaphor. Beyond the metaphor, two kids couldn't tell if reality was true or not, and they could either k1ll themselves to get a better life, or grow up living a meek, unfulfilled existence. That was my interpretation away from the metaphors. To me, neither the intended story of accepting your trans identity, nor the cut and dry story that plays out on paper are to my taste. Again, just because of the depressing themes.

I think I considered these two characters Gen-Xers based on the timeline, and Gen X definitely feels like the kids that never had their own revolution, sexual or otherwise. Boomers before had free love , millennials have more freedom of fluidity and identity. Gen X were the ones who were scared into submission by the threat of nuclear war, the fear of AIDS, and gay panic. I think that’s represented by Owen still not being their fully formed self even as the film fades to black. Great movie. Need to go again.

The film was visually appealing, and the music is nice, but the story and structure are lacking IMO. If I'm being honest, the film just felt very slow. It's weird in a bad way for me. And I enjoy when directors and writers are given the opportunity to get REALLY creative, but this just felt pretentious. I feel like people are giving the movie a pass because of the subject matter and the studio behind it. Which I agree needs to be talked about more, but in a better way. But the movie advertised itself as a supernatural creepypasta-inspired horror, and the movie does NOT deliver at all. If you enjoyed this movie more power to you, but I just wasn't feeling this one..

Not knowing anything about this movie other than the trailer and your video, I am picking up some 'Stranger Things' vibes here. Am I way off base with that assessment?

Thanks for watching! I'm not sure why it's difficult to decipher though? Some things work, some things don't, and it all depends on your personal perspective.

@@asan1050 OK, well, there is a rating in the video. I don't focus on ratings because I don't think reducing a film to a single number has enough nuance and the review is much more important than the rating. But I still put it on the screen.

The idea was cool but overall it was a boring bland attempt at arthouse horror. But due to the underlying meaning I think it will find supporters but we all know this was a slugfest and we really have to stop calling anything that’s a little creepy a “horror “ film
