Hey there! Thanks for watching today's video! If you enjoyed today's video, don't forget to subscribe to my RU-vid channel! You can subscribe to my RU-vid channel here → ru-vid.com

Wait what am i doing... oh right im following this guy--nope, he’s following me. This was epic

This is the peak of RU-vid’s quality. Truly. It’s a damn shame people can no longer make a career from quality content. Much respect brother!

I used to talk about this movie more than a normal person should. It moved me, wasnt sure why. You're video scratched an itch in the back of my brain. Thank you.

I’m pretty sure this being removed and re-uploaded is a masterpiece of performance art reflecting the nature of memory and meaning of Memento.

This channel should have many more subscribers.

Greatest movie ever. How much I was obsessed with this movie.

This is a fantastic breakdown of a perfect film. Literally the most perfect, tightly woven, pristine film. Periodt. At 3:47 notice that when Lenny is talking about memory and fact that in the background is Cathy's Flower Shop - his wife's name was Catherine and flowers for the dead is a common trope.

In the beginning of the movie timeline (the end) , there is a quick flash of his tattoo on his left upper chest that says 'I am done', this makes the entire movie's plot completely different, he's being manipulated into killing without him realizing that he had finished his origional goal previously..

note sth: when natalie asked what was his last memory and he says "my wife....dying", he didn't say "dead", one little clue here...

I once saw a video of Christopher Nolan explaining the movie himself. He described it like a hairpin, with the gray images going forwards, the colored going backwards, cutting between the two until they ultimately meet in the center.

I watched this film in "normal" order and it is still good.

Fabulous film. Saw it when it was first released and stunned by how much it revealed about the nature of memory. Reflected cutting edge neuroscience of the time.

I love how concise your videos are. Such great content.

Yo wherever this guy is he needs to come back this stuff is awesome

Fantastic, great to see you upload again!

The detail i love is, that he learned how to destroy polaroids thru repetition

Found this channel and loved the content your doing good mate but more uploads is needed

I wish this channel had much more videos I love the break down of videos

Love the channel, waiting for the next vid

Loving the content!!

Now would be a really good time to make another video my dude. We need you back.

I love your channel so much

Beautiful. Very well written. Thank you for the video. God Bless. Philia

great work and analysis! this's the kind of movie that requieres a longer exposition, but thank you!!

That was great! Thank you for the enlightenment.😊

Christopher Nolan is quite the director! Great stuff Matt!

Well done again.

2:45 that voice crack with “Leonard” while dazed and bleeding… bro, Nolan really got realistically dark before he started making Batman movies

Superb content.. and btw u have such a nice vocal cord .. thanks bro

Great essay Matt! Just found your channel, loving the content. Huge fan of existentialism in film. I actually try to include some of that in my sketches (a lot of man vs the abstract themes) as a way to combat and rationalize life. Would love for you to watch them, I always am interested in what makes “semi-optimistic nihilists” laugh. Keep up the good work. Drive thru or new Roommate are the most existential

Crazy good channel Holy lord!!!

This is an excellent interpretation!

Great Video!

UNDERRATED CHANNEL!

this is really great

Beautiful video, thank you for your work :) I was always connecting the movie with the latin phrase memento moris - remember that you are dead, because the protagonist cannot remember that he killed the real murderer, and that is why the word "moris" was missed in the title; he is continously reviving and looking the death, because his purpouse is the embodiment of death, that is why the title is just memento. Nice job!

My all-time favorite movie. Also, I love that Kierkegaard quote, I'll have to read more by him.

This was my favorite movie for a long time

How much time left for the arrival video by the way these content videos are awesome.

Amen Brother 💪 Just found your channel.. Intriguing 😎

Sleeper channel I’m glad I found it keep up the great work

well done!

Am I having a stroke or is this the third time I've seen this?

what a great video about my favorite movie i never understood until youtube videos explaining why its my favorite movie

Hey man, fantastic channel and videos!! Ive probably watched all of your videos more than 4 times now hahaha because their so well made. Will you ever be uploading a new video, because I really love you channel!!

Very very good.

Yo man when u gonna upload your video on Arrival

Teddy is the one dislike

Please do one on The Machinist!!!

Thanks

Your fucking amazing Matt!!!

Arrival? Yes please

Hey brother, keep doing what you're doing. We need more Christian youtubers like you.

Leonard becomes a serial killer with the perfect alibi: he has Anterograde Amnesia. He cannot remember all the crimes he committed. I believe he’ll continue to operate in that town or another but will eventually get caught. Teddy was covering his tracks but since Lenny killed him, the police will eventually catch up to him. There’s no way he could continue to operate like he’s been doing long term without someone helping him. Most likely he’ll end up back in a state hospital or institution.

My favorite movie

wait.. are you reposting this?? i thought i saw this already.....

Love your videos! Any chance you might do one in the future on Ridley Scott's Prometheus? Apparently, early versions of the script included a lot of material connecting the engineers' desire to wipe out humanity to the crucifixion of Jesus (i.e., Jesus was an engineer, we killed him, and the other engineers decided to reset human civilization). I've read some lengthy forum posts that discuss this and they really clear up a lot of confusing aspects about the movie. I'm sure you would find many interesting things to say about it all.

Nothing hurt me more than the fact that, he was being played. 😢

How do you not have millions of subs

Haven’t even watched it yet but ik it gone be good

The audio recording is booming.

This was one of the best movies of all time.

To date Batman Begins is Nolan’s best film. It’s the one that has everything Nolan usually likes to do. The only problem is that it’s so aimed at a specific audience that it goes over most people’s heads.

Matt during this testing times could we please have more uploads? Hope you are keeping well. thank you

So trippy, I watched momento then arrival in the same day without knowing anything about either films...

The guy is a serial killer, and doesn't know it. The website had a bit of back story where he escaped from an asylum.

we are still waiting for your next video

Please don’t send me into another existential crisis

Do a review on the 2006 film The Fountain, please

Guy looks a bit like Brad Pitt here.

NEW UPLOAD!

Arrival is AMAZING in symbolism and concepts of self! Cannot wait!

My head is hurting man.

Do District 9.

Is this a re upload? I swear I saw that title before so I could watch the movie before i watched the video.

I'm a bit bummed this one. Why is this video only 7:33 long? He could've dived in to way more. Like the meaning of the flash image of himself during the complex story about Leonard. Like the meaning of some of the tattoos. Other things that slipt my mind. He out way more time and effort into the arrival video which should have had a similar length for this, imo.

@Logosmadeflesh were you, or are you a Christian. You have a good grasp on biblical hermanuetic concepts. It's pretty cool

Can you do the dark knight or moonlight

Leonard's biggest mistake was trusting Cypher and Trinity

Was it reuploaded?

Make a vid on matrix

I ish I could articulte whtrhtis means. Mind bloeing hte thoughts I have tfirm thesi.

I watched all the videos on the channel chronologically backwards. Coincidence? I think not.

i am still waiting on the next video

sooooo how about that Arrival video...

O. And being FILM NERD Royalty, I can say.. MEMENTO, is a f**king landmark!!

At : 4:13 Its Sergei Eisenstein not Kulesov. Everything you said correct except the person you showed.

Review of this film, here, I found just outstanding.. I did. It was thorough.. It was, in my mind, most appropriately accurate, should interpretation be necessary to save the planet. LOL! No one is so uniquely qualified to interpret art, however. Doesn't ' art take on a life of its own?' This film is sacred to me, as it shows what it's like to have attention deficit. ( or, I thought so ) When he was looking for a pen. Trying so hard to hold on to what's important. Knowing only one thing: What mattered.. Won't matter.. And, I will just look irresponsible. Because I couldn't keep up. Like I don't give a shit. When, in fact, I do.

Can someone please explain what the kirkegaard quote means. Maybe its a language barrier I dont fkn get it

Please, review FLIGHT (Denzel Washington). I feel like there is something there. (The arrest vs his true freedom). Thanks

No Arrival video? :((

More videos! Where are more of your videos it’s been a year again since another new video. 11 months is basically a year.

Hello. It is somewhat like sleep a psychosis to be more prudent. An intertwined dream with a dabble to thee awakening the next morning. Freshly risen underneath the sun as it enters the room before our still closed eyes. A journal of dreams. An existential thought provocation of an ontological system long antiquated to "enth" degrees. A process perhaps to unlearn what has been learned to inevitably learn once more. The always complex mathmatical structure defines us in every breath. Our sleep deprived from our own self sustaining automated system beats out breath and blood only to shed it anew. And as I harken to him, with an exhuberent hearatio. Exclaimed in utter preposterous means without the wherewithal to obtain civility. I take the steed thusly and before it begin's it's induction upon the mound. Without stables the wind rushes in each canyon crevice and river overflowed from the mid summers evening. And can we not exclaim to one another our indefirerence as to shake the trees pecans to our own feet? Leaving within it a lush fruitful exchange upon the table of each days creation. Only it's emminence reply's as we each reside somewhere at the midnights break. Good luck.

Life must be undertood backwards...

Where are you? It’s been 8 months make more videos

Despite all my anti-religion beliefs, I love this Bible-based interpretation. The Bible *IS* consistently relevant.
