[@Dr.Meme-Man]

I know I’m a year late, but they COULD still make it a cloverfield connection of sorts? For starters, the story goes that the Death Angels are a race of monster aliens that originally grew in a hostile planet with heavy gravity; explaining their tough armor and lack of swimming abilities. Now, for reasons we just don’t know, their planet just blew up and somehow EVERY SINGKE meteor from that planet crashed on earth and carried them across the galaxy completely unharmed??? Like maybe the aliens in Cloverfield Lane were responsible for the destruction of the Death Angels’ planet AND were the reason all their fragments landed on earth in the first place.

great film

[@MrHPfan4ever]

So I was okay with Lane’s ending. The whole movie set up the question of whether Goodman’s character was crazy or if his assertions were correct. It played on your expectations of an either/or scenario and revealed the answer was that both were true. I like how it completes Michelle’s arc, with her no longer running away. But at the same time, it is such a jarring transition, I can see why others would find it problematic.

[@stanbonesletsplays]

Yeah, really the film should have ended as she left the bunker and saw the spaceships. She didn't have to suddenly turn into Ellen Ripley out of nowhere. I agree that the reveal works for thematic reasons, it just didn't need an over the top action scene.

[@MrHPfan4ever]

stanbonesletsplays Fair. I can see that working better.

[@MortyKaiShalom]

It was jarring, but I kind of liked that about the movie. We went from one tone straight into "HOLY SHIT, WTF IS HAPPENING", real fast. In fact, part of me kind of wants to see how she fares after leaving, but perhaps her story is best left where it is... Or perhaps a passing character in a later installment. In any case, I hope something better comes from "Cloverfield 4" because this one.... mehh..

[@JacksGameReviews]

She was terrified to fight back against goodman but immediately says YEP THOSE ARE FUCKING ALIENS AND IM GONNA FUCK EM UP Sorry I’m 4 years late

[@INFILTR8US]

10 Cloverfield Lane was great until the monsters showed up. These kinds of movies work best when the lead character completes their arc by confronting the unknown but the outcome is left ambiguous.

[@tmcleanful]

Abrams has a flawed idea about what drives interest in stories. He thinks that the mystery box that attracts folks should never be opened, and that's why you get all of these strange incongruent angles in his stuff from Lost to the Cloverfield series. What he doesn't seem to get is that what people want is to open the mystery box and see the answer, but to also see that inside is another mystery box even more attractive than the first, having been buffed already by having a satisfying answer to the first mystery. People will then WANT to explore the second mystery box, which should inevitably lead to another answer and yet another mystery box. And so on. Abrams drives me crazy, clearly.

[@Hocotatium111]

Well, Lost actually did that, just without ever answering what was in the second half of all of the mystery boxes. It sort of falls apart in the way Steven Moffat's stuff does, where he teases about how impressive and mysterious everything is just off camera without ever having anything of note to show once the story moves forward. Having a satisfying mystery is easier said than done, since the entire mystery seems stupid in retrospect if the solution is stupid.

[@tmcleanful]

Agreed, which is why the ending to King's Dark Tower series was one of the most maddeningly brilliant I have ever seen. I don't like the way Abrams just leaves it all dangling and uses "not opening the mystery box" as his excuse.

[@dmolmalowski]

He didnt write the story.

[@tmcleanful]

LOL That's hilariously irrelevant.

[@selenium9479]

Too often inside a "mystery box" there is just some overused cliche like it was a purgatory, or God's testing people, or it was just a dream/virtual reality...

[@enocramirez9492]

0:00 that intro song is fire 🔥

[@thetrin]

At 5:30 you talk about one character only speaking Chinese and everyone speaks English to her. This is actually pretty true to life. Living in Japan, I have a few Japanese friends that don't speak English, but understand it. I can speak Japanese, but find English easier if I can speak it. We end up just speaking our native languages to each other because we understand the other's just fine, and it's faster to communicate that way, and easier for us to communicate complex thoughts. I'm sure it comes off as weird to many people, but it happens quite a bit in real life. Love your videos! Keep up the good work.

[@InstantSilence]

This is the same with me and my parents. They speak to me in Tagalog, and I can understand it but I can't speak it. I learned a while back that it's called Receptive Bilingualism.

[@GoddoDoggo]

That might make sense, if 2 of the other crew members were not also non-native English speakers. Why didn't the Russian guy only speak in Russian? The answer is "Because Russia is not a big film market worth catering to like China."

[@10-AMPM-01]

8:21 good question: "how did they end up on the other side of the sun" . That's a commonly misunderstood aspect of space/time. A lot of people assume the Earth and Sun are "stationary." Meaning, if you time travel to the past, you'd end up on Earth in the past. But, you'd also have to travel in space as far as the solar system has, in that time. So even if you just went back 2 months, you'd end up thousands of miles away from the entire solar system. So yeah, the movie bunks it up. But, not as badly as it could have. There's also the issue of being in deep space without a magnetosphere protecting them from solar radiation. Even movies like Interstellar bunk up space travel.

[@jotarokujo3603]

3 of 9 to be fair, I don’t think audiences give a flying fuck about a magnetosphere protecting the occupants from radiation. It’s one of those more mundane details tbh. Nobody ever sees radiation and it’s unlikely to noticeably affect a person rapidly enough to be a movie plot point. I feel you, accuracy is important. But this is something you’d probably have to explain through dialogue and it wouldn’t really impact any movie. Heck even if you want the characters to die, there’s always starvation, which is more relatable. It’s like explaining that your main character has an immune system.

[@jotarokujo3603]

Amilah I feel you, it just doesn’t work well in a story format which is condensed into around 2 hours. So I understand why it’s not done.

The language thing is pretty common. It's a lot harder to speak a language than translate it in your head, so a lot of people in situations like that will just speak their language and the other person speaks theirs, rather than try to stumble through whatever common tongue they might have

[@davidsenra2495]

That happens only when there are two or three people in a conversation, and they are all fluent to all languages involved. There's no way everyone on the ship (they are not English speakers also) would learn Mandarin (super difficult for westerners) and a top scientist from China wouldn't be able to learn English.

About printing guns.

Harvey Chesterfield where was the "twists" hes supposedly obsessed with though? the meenah thing? but didnt marcus point put that she was acting suspicious? so how much of a contrived twist is that?

[@TVJUNK85]

I think his biggest problem is being TOO obsessed with open ended questions Everything he makes has either little to no universe establisment in exposition (ala, Force Awakens) or ends with a bunch of unanswered questions. And not the good kind of unanswered questions either; the kind that are legitimate questions that should have been answered in the film.

[@corwincori861]

Well he is Jar Jar Abrams after all.

[@yassasloan7308]

reggie wolfpac can you say that again - in english?

[@user-vn7ce5ig1z]

And yet they keep giving Abrams work. 😒 He already ruined Star Trek and Star Wars, and they're giving him Half-Life and Portal. 🤦

[@castratiikr0n]

"don't trust Baron Zemo" nah, after watching them fire ass dance moves I definitely can

[@SpiceAndSauce]

I like this movie, I like any half baked sci fi idea movies. But I also understand why people say it sucks.

[@cleverpsyche115]

Thankfully, Overlord was removed from the Cloververse, and it kicks ass!

[@niallreid7664]

Jeez that film got sort of forgotten didn't it? Nobody talks about it anymore. A shame.

[@Jacox98]

It was never in the cloververse

[@flashdelirium2]

But think of what the title could have been if it stayed: CLOVERLORD

[@nopatiencejoe6376]

@@Jacox98 Neither Paradox and Lane was... But we all know how the story goes.

[@heezythecasual]

@@flashdelirium2 it was originally planned to be in the cloververse but then it was made into its own thing when paradox failed and 10 and the original were already had mix reviews so they didnt want overlord to fail before it was out

[@legacy_the_archer]

you know whats a better prequel to clover feild than this. " Life " the alien even kinda looked like the creature

[@tritone2276]

Tim West yeah a bunch of folks have been saying this is just a less cohesive "Life"

[@masterzombie161]

I cannot believe that Roy from the IT Crowd was in this movie.

[@poeticserenade]

The "Kansas" scene was literally in there because the guy who says it is a British comedian/actor and they have to make sure comedians get to be funny in a movie they are in. Also the irony in a Brit comedian correcting a Norwegian actor on American geography/pop culture references.

[@vikmons6104]

I laughed quite a few times in this but never so more than when you said "She left the oven on or something and they blew up"

[@ScottieSobel]

I love how Marcus keeps referring to Wall Lady as "Brienne of Tarth" or "Captain Phasma" when Wall Lady isn't played by Gwendoline Christie. I feel like Marcus knows this but continues to do it anyway and it makes me giggle.

[@El_oh7199]

Scottie Sobel they are both super tall, so.....

[@tlou2sprettygood547]

they look kinda similar yeah

[@demonxphil]

Thank you for talking about how the lady in the wall did not make since

[@demonxphil]

How did see know the guy was in the door

[@nicknagy5359]

This reminds me so much of underwater and I now I need you to review that movie!!

[@TheHero136]

This movie tried so hard to be Alien........and failed miserably!

[@lv-wj6ex]

TheHero136 that wasn't the idea for the movie

[@the_ninja_piggy7020]

Because Alien is great

[@shannontrf]

I think it took some inspiration for the design of the movie but thats where the similarity ends, the nods to alien were one of the few good bits

[@jessesaysthebword5513]

TheHero136 it's a thriller that happens in space but thats really the only similarity between the two movies, they kind of have two completely different tones or moods.

[@nightmarefreddykrueger121]

Expect there WAS NO FUCKING ALIEN

[@GuardianOfMoon]

Ive been stressed at my work, just that time of the year, and I've been listening to your reviews over and over again. Just wanted to share that your voice and wit is really helpful while I work through my heavy workload. I've listened to this one, Junkrat, Bright, and Harry Potter ones the most.

[@ujustgotdunkedon4523]

Imaginary friend, being locked up and door just opening, the Shinning. Except it goes over things and explains them.

[@davidinmossy]

Not actually seen the first one but have seen the other two think I'll watch it tonight.

[@GZeta789]

Oh come on, "the guy from Bridesmaids"? He's the guy from The IT Crowd!

[@aceambling7685]

Gabriel Zeta seriously

[@jamesharrison658]

I don't know why he didn't suggest just turning it off and then on again.

[@aceambling7685]

james harrison lol

[@gyromurphy]

The guy from Thor 2

[@adamskibilngling6350]

plus cosmo looks like moss from the it crowd

[@jonathann2116]

I have one more complaint with the movie. So she goes down to shuttle to her earth with all the plans, but then she decides to kill everyone instead and just steal the ship. But she didn't need to do that...she already had the plans and the research

[@stephengrant4841]

Jonanator she explains this i think, saying they couldnt afford to create another particle accelerator.

[@tlou2sprettygood547]

yeah or that they might not have enough time to build a new one before the world basically ended

[@jackashmore]

The fact overlord didn't have cloverfield title attached to it was the main reason I didn't go and see it

[@bloodrunsclear]

This literally made more sense in Event Horizon when the answer was 'Hell is a dimension inside a black hole'

[@Lucknitro]

I love the clover man he’s great

[@palikaloz]

"The guy from Bridesmaids" You surely meant the IT Crowd...

[@jagripino]

Dude. I simply love your videos. You rock man!

[@southofheck]

That spaceship with billions of little moving parts and miles or wiring and cables that all interconnect and still runs perfectly fine after getting depressurized and blown up multiple times, but my bicycle hits a curb a bit to hard and the entire thing is ruined.

[@Crimson_Tango]

11:54 They say they decide not to go to that earth because it's not their Earth, everything had already fallen apart there, and if they didn't get back home their Earth will suffer the same fate. But yea this movie sucked.

[@Mathee]

The way cosmic horror generally works is that you give just enough details for the audience to come to their own conclusions without giving a definite answer, knowing that whatever the audience imagines will be more horrifying than anything you could put on the screen. You can't just throw everything at the screen and say that it's supposed to make sense

[@williamhanekom9882]

Honestly the idea of a spaceship crossing dimensions and crashing with another sounds like an fun idea for a sci fi horror film, it just sucks that they never took advantage of that and resorted to weird ass worms and severed arms with no substance or reasoning behind the fact it needs to be a cloverfield movie. They really should have focused on the relationships of the characters and how they clashed with the interdimensional astronauts, maybe they have different cultural attitudes, different alien biology, just something that would make for an interesting conflict.

[@KhalilSiddeeq]

Just noticed the Bobby Caldwell in the outro my guy

[@user-vn7ce5ig1z]

Actually, the end of _10 Cloverfield Lane_ had nothing to do with _Cloverfield_ , it was aliens, but not Cloverfield aliens. The only connections it had to _Cloverfield_ were in a makeshift website; there was _nothing_ in the actual movie. _Paradox_ had a few handful of scenes that were connected, but they were added in post and it's obvious because none of the actors are in them; the scene where Donal's character talks about it only has a generic arm in it, not the actors. Crouching Tiger, Hidden Chewbacca. _Bridesmaids_ ? Pfft. 🙄 Chris O'Dowd was in _Moone Boy_ !

[@gyromurphy]

The guy from Thor 2

[@lolnothxyt]

Why isn't it Cloverfield aliens? Is there a book, or something? They mentioned all kinds of monsters could have been released from that dimension, so why are you so certain they were not from Cloverfield?

[@djosearth3618]

I think you prolly meaned that movie about English pirate radio station on a ship, or did that movie have Moss, the other side-hair IT Crewed dude..

[@MarcAlcatraz]

thank you for talking in depth of why the "intro" car scene was so bad, i've watched a handful of reviews and no one has brought this up! Most likely because there are so many other problems that cement themselves into the reviewers' mind.

[@goldilocksguy5170]

I barely notice this movie was out

[@MachoMan_Vert]

Did you ever notice that almost every Netflix movie has the same look and feel to them? Like the same film graininess and the same blue-ish green-ish colour palate with contrasting colours.

[@k01dsv]

I didn't even realize that it was part of a series... And I've even watched 21 cloverfield lane ^.^

[@roccociccone597]

It's roy from the IT crowd... That's the thing I thought every time I saw the Irish dude XD

[@Spiderpope]

The film works better as a dark continuation of The IT Crowd than it does as Cloverfield. Roy had one hell of a few weeks on that station and the solution was literally "have you tried turning it off and on again".

[@MickeyMH1]

The scene where Chinese woman got frozen in space hurts my brain so much
