I love this movie. I just realised Danny saw the future, but not the whole picture, only fragments, for instance he did not antecipate his own father's death. Neither Tony, helping Danny to cope with all the misfortunes and tragedies that were about to come.
I saw this when it came out, and this scene had people running for the exits. Literally like no thank you, I'm going home, never going to the beach again, fuck the ocean, fuck pools, fuck rivers and lakes, fuck water in general.
OK young people I love jaws just like everybody else. But if you wanna watch a really good movie, just like this, but I think better watch orca. Orka is like if John Wick was a killer whale.I'm not joking lmfao
7:40 "He wants to overthrow the emperor" lol, well yeah...he wanted to overthrow the emperor the DAY Palpatine became the emperor, 30 years prior to this moment. He said as much to his wife.
RIP Shelley Duvall. She went insane after making this film. The director would make her do 100's of retakes of this scene along with many others. Poor woman lost her mind.
When I first saw the movie over 35 years ago when I was a teenager, it felt obvious to me that Peter Graves (the pilot) is gay but this is the 1980s and he is a man of an older generation. He doesn't know how to really come out. So he says these things he wishes he could see/do by phrasing it in the form of rhetorical questions he asks of everybody. He asks someone if they ever saw saw a grown man naked because he wishes he could see that for himself and not because he wants to see that person naked.
Also, people ignore something. Vader is still Anakin enough to be such a diva that there is no wind in space so he is literally using the force to make his cape blow around in the last scene.
what I don't understand is why everyone isn't more afraid of Tony. Of all the stuff that happens in the hotel, I think mr bimble living in his fingers is by far the absolute creepiest. Don't get me wrong, I've actually read the book and I get that Tony is actually a real powerful entity trying to help, but in the movie that doesn't come across...really at all, I feel. And by extension, makes Tony the absolute creepiest aspect of poor danny in many ways.
This is hilarious. There was not the tone policing and sensitivity policing of today. People got the cringe and when things were deliberately "off" and were laughing at the inappropriateness of it. They weren't projecting some trauma to feel bad and then project as a trigger to denounce the cast for feeling this triggered state they self-created. Instead we could laugh and think simply "Oh no Clarence is being weird and may be interested in children and no one but Clarence seems to know.. Run Joey run, get out of that cockpit. Hahaha" because at the end of the day, we do not imagine anything outside of that. "What if Clarence was there alone with Joe" or " What if I was Joey" or "what if they were all like Clarence" or "what if something physical happened" or "doesn't this endorse that inappropriate behaviour".... Because that is virtue signaling and morality policing and it neither exalts the person nannying nor diminishes the movie. It is a shame that this happens nowadays.
NOTE: The two gentlemen speaking "Jive" are actually EXTREMELY intelligent and erudite men who speak as if they have advanced degrees from Yale. I have seen both of them interviewed and their command of English is worthy of a PROFESSOR.
