Welcome to the Heavy Spoilers show I'm your host Paul and it's time to Jordan Peele back the layers on the directors new UFO movie Nope.
There's some major twists that nobody could've predicted as well as a some big themes that I think are definitely worth talking about. Throughout this video we're gonna be going through it all so should you go past this point if you haven't seen it? Nope...and...that's also the kind of wit you can expect in this video.
With that out the way, thank you for clicking this, now let's get into NOPE!
Ok so up top we're really busy with comic-con at the moment so I don't really wanna do a big plot recap and instead I'd rather forcus on the major details in the film as well as what I think the overall theme is. Jordan Peele's movies are always laced with social commentary and this picture feels like an examination of how those that work in hollywood are treated.
This is seen in several of the characters as well as the animals that appear throughout. There's very little respect given to them and I think that at it's core this film is about respecting the aspects of the industry that are often looked over.
Now the first major thing that I think we have to talk about when discussing the movie is the reveal of what's going on with the apparent flying saucer. Though everyone thought from the trailers that this would be an alien space craft we learn that it's actually the alien itself.
The movie takes place roughly over the space of about half a year and we learn that this creature hides amongst the clouds hunting for prey.
Like most beasts this monster operates based on instinct and if it feels threatened it will attack. There are ways to survive encounters with it which we see through OJ who doesn't make eye contact with it.
If one keeps their head down and doesn't look directly at it they can survive this but obviously with it existing in the clouds, several animals and people stare up at it.
Often in order to survive encounters with wild beasts people are told to avoid eye contact at all cost and this is very much carried over to the monster itself. Where it comes from we don't fully know but it does unfurl at the end of the movie and show that it's almost like a sort of flower/jellyfish. Grace Randolph in her review discussed how she thinks Peele was very much trying to talk about how we know as little about the skies as we do the oceans and that this creature may even be from Earth.
Now we discover throughout the film that the beast is fed horses by a character named Jupe who used to be a child star.
He starred on a sitcom in the 90s called Gordy's home that centred around a family that lived with a chimp.
They treated him like a member of the family but he was of course an animal and in not respecting this they ended up suffering.
The Chimp ended up going feral and it went wild, injuring several people.

toss up on o.j. maybe how his father dies is a sign of his coming end. the old Western of the guy riding off on the horse slumped over, but in the movie later he falls off. i remember the argument in the Samuel Jackson movie at the end. on the other hand. we dont see him take him or him scream. we see no blood or body in the explosion. so does she vision him? she never had this ability before. nor do we see any spiritual watching over element in the movie.

@travdaddy11 2 года назад

I felt like this movie was an allegory discussing the dangers of blindly pursuing a 'spectacle' in spite of its inherent danger (such as working with wild animals). The opening quote, 'I will cast abominable filth at you, make you vile, make you a spectacle' makes this point. Our modern sensibilities understand a spectacle as a good thing, but that isn't objectively true when people are hurt, killed, or maimed in public. There are people who are drawn to violent videos, as shown with the cinematographer watching graphic animal fighting videos. He says, "the shot you want, you never wake up from" foreshadows his eventual dissatisfaction with his shot (he says "the lighting") and dashes out to get the shot. His obsession with a filming a spectacle was his end. Steven Yeun's character looked back on his tragic time with the monkey with wonder, daydreaming about the time he was that close to that dark spectacle. His mementos of the show are dark as well, and he says that people (presumably obsessed with violent videos too) pay money to see that stuff.

@Karin_Allen 2 года назад

Just guessing here, but maybe it has to do with "coin" meaning money in general and also being shorthand for importance. If that's what Peele intended (or *one* of the things he intended!), then Hayward Sr. died after a lifetime training and selling his horses (including one that Em loved) for Hollywood "coin." And Jupe used false coin/coins in hopes of getting some attention before finally outdoing Haywood Sr. by *sacrificing* horses.

Grace really did a great job breaking down the movie’s themes in her spoiler review. I loved how every character in the movie had a different relationship with the pursuit of spectacle: (1) Ricky and the Sitcom massacre: Everybody was willing to smile and laugh for the camera despite the fact that they were dealing with a temperamental animal (2) Ricky and the Circus massacre: Everybody was willing to smile and gawk at an actual alien presence despite the fact that they had no idea if it really came in peace or not, and Ricky loved fame too much to stop chasing dangerous opportunities whenever it presented itself (3) Cinematographer: He was jaded for being recognized as having filmed the impossible, and he willingly gave his life for that one truly perfect shot (4) TMZ Guy: So determined to uncover the truth he wanted the camera rolling as he was dying, and he even scorned Emerald for trying to save his life (5) OJ and Emerald wanted to bring honor to their fathers legacy, and were so determined to capture the perfect shot they put their lives at risk to get it (6) Angel didn’t just want to capture the spectacle for fame or financial gain; he wanted to warn the world and hopefully save lives. That’s why when his life was truly in danger he focused on survival over spectacle

He's in a league of his own when it comes to horror.

I don’t think his intention was to show a “spectacle” but to prove he can tame the alien by forming some connection like he felt he had with Gordy since the chimp didn’t harm him.

@prateek-shankar 2 года назад

You're definitely on the money! It IS about how Hollywood treats its people, but more specifically how it treats its BLACK contributors and members. Why? Because A) the Haywood family backstory (made-up or not) is really about how no one bothered to remember the name of the first person in a moving image just because they were Black - all that is remembered is the horse; B) in the midpoint of the film, Em says "they won't erase us this time" when plotting how to shoot the alien on camera, directly referencing Black erasure from history (popular conceptions of history are white conceptions of history, think about it); lastly C) the alien itself -- and all the other wrangled animals in the film - horses and Gordy the chimp -- are a metaphor for how Black bodies are fetishized in Hollywood, their being and culture treated as spectacle without any serious recognition of the state of their humanity or history. All of this wraps up beautifully right at the end of the film: when Em becomes the first human to capture an image of extraterrestrial life on Earth. History can't erase her this time.

Another thing I found interesting was OJ and how he tends to look down and not make much eye contact more often than not, unless it was necessary. Also, the cloud -- I felt like the creature was able to replicate one to blend it. It was never a normal cloud, didn't move at all. And those questioning why it fell for the balloon trick -- it fell for the horse trick. Hell, I think the horse statue was staring up at the sky. It probably ignored the balloon due to it's location, but when it flew up, it was staring right at him, and by then when knew this creature ducks things up on sight.

@spectroheliotic 2 года назад

I think what makes Jean Jacket so freighting is that even by the end of the film, we never knew it's origins, the lore behind it's species, whether or not there's more of them out there, or whether or not it came from space or Earth. Not knowing what the creature is makes it even more terrifying. All we do know is that it behaves like an animal and we should treat it as such. One wrong move and you're dead. Maybe it's best we didn't know where it came from. As long as it's gone, we're safe.

was just also a neat way to acknowledge that people often carry small, sharp metal objects that would likely injure or even kill if fallen onto someone from a distance.

I saw another commenter post that polaroids can't be edited or photoshopped, so I think that was significant.

During the movie, when Emerald (keke) is in the house, in the background you see art on the wall of all of the individual photographs of the horse rider that they were able to put together to make the movie.

@gakailyn9249 2 года назад

I read an article before the movie came out which said that Peele's message had to do with our "obsession with spectacle." I think the point was that to avoid being consumed by spectacle we need to keep a respectable distance from it. The ufo monster only ate whatever looked directly at it. Yeun's character attempted to monetize on the ufo by hyping it up as a spectacle, he called it one himself. Then he couldn't control it and everyone got consumed...the showman capitalist and the audience, suggesting that there's no such thing as an innocent bystander when we perceive violence (the horses getting eaten) as entertainment. We do this. We've all witnessed something terrible on video, had a little 'oh my god, oh no' moment then shared the video with others. OJ was the only one who knew not to look at it. He was aware it was there but he approached it appropriately and carefully and was thus able to avoid being consumed by it. There was a lot of animal allegory too but mostly I think it was about how we need to stop engaging with real disasters they way we engage with media entertainment. Like....we memed the January 6th insurrection...there's something wrong with that.

Absolutely, the tmz guy is representative of many...I think of Worldstar, cringe complications, Karen freakouts...Jake Paul...there is certainly a type that will displace their human decency for video content. This would be the most ridiculed and satirical of us. However, there's also the film maker who also lost his life because he couldn't put his camera down. Perhaps a more noble pursuit, being willing to die for your art...but he fully intended to produce that video. If he survived, would he have kept it to himself or required the validation that accompanies getting those once in a lifetime shots? It gives performance artist...it gives houdini...and Instagram/Snapchat tbh. Why can't we be proud of art that's never seen? And then there's keke palmer's character, who arguably had her head on the straightest (aside from OJ) and she was just as equally determined to get her picture of the monster. She couldn't just accept that she'd experienced a crazy thing and hold that within herself as a secret...it gives "pics or it didn't happen." And of course the tech guy was serving conspiracy theory. Some of us chase spectacle because we're so empty inside that we delude ourselves into believing that idk real life isn't interesting enough. Others do so because real life doesn't feel real enough. Still others want proof that they're lives happened at all. Everyone except for OJ was operating on an external locus of control. I'd argue that because OJ had a strong internal basis he was able to connect with the 'spectacle' on a much more profound level. They were in relation to each rather than separated by the need to capture and share what was happening between them.

@thoughtbandits 2 года назад

My theory is that the monster is a metaphor for an abusive system. With the supporting narrative of Gordy's sitcom incident, it points most specifically toward Hollywood but can be used as a metaphor for any such system, including systems that exploit and abuse women and children, or systems that oppress minorities. The line that solidifies that theory for me is when OJ says regarding the monster: "I don't think it eats you unless you look at it." When confronted by evidence of an abusive system, so many of us choose to "look away" rather than grapple with the ugly truth and confront it. These abusive systems tend to cloak themselves behind a veneer of normality: in the case of the monster, an unassuming cloud in the sky, in the case of Gordy, a beloved sitcom. OJ literally "turns a blind eye" to the monster to survive. Only at the end, does he engage and confront the monster to let his sister escape. The protagonists spend much of the film trying to capture it on tape because just as with these powerful abusive systems, the media and the public begin to pay attention only when there is undeniable proof (and often on tape). Time and again, the impact of the monster is explained away as something more innocuous, such as a propeller plane throwing trash, or a flash flood that claimed the lives of 40+ people. And just like an abusive system, the monster has ways to shut down any attempts to capture evidence of its reality. The monster uses an EMP effect, while abusive systems use their power, the complicity of others, and the legal system to shut down anyone who tries to reveal its ugly truth. Just look at how Harvey Weinstein, Jeffrey Epstein, Donald Trump, and other powerful people have used such methods to protect their abuses. Finally, Jupe is the thread that holds it together. In the Gordy flashback, the chimp seems to connect with Jupe, both victims of the abusive system. As a child actor, he was exploited by his parents and Hollywood, just like the chimp. He is staring at a shoe that doesn't drop. He was always waiting for "the other shoe to drop" to reveal the truth of this exploitive system that ultimately destroyed Gordy. He seemed to empathize with Gordy in that scene and might have even fantasized about tearing that system down just like Gordy did. But ultimately, the shoe never drops, and Jupe himself becomes part of that exploitive system. He frames the undropped shoe and places it in a memorial for the incident which he further capitalizes on by charging others to see it. He buries the memory and embraces a sanitized SNL version of the incident. He becomes part of that system by literally feeding live horses to the animal, and making his own children part of the show. And in the end, it ultimately consumes him too. The TMZ man represents how the media plays into this system of abuse by capitalizing on the spectacle. Rather than trying to expose the monster, all he wanted to do was capture it to use it for financial gain, not to reveal the truth and destroy the system. Only when Emerald could finally capture the reality of the monster in a photograph, does the monster unravel. The spectacle was too large for others to ignore any longer.

@nightmarilyn 2 года назад

Commented this on another video and it seems we’re all curious as to the symbolism of the standing up shoe. Ricky was fixated on the shoe as he watched Gordy attack everyone. I think it was a literal representation of the phrase “waiting for the other shoe to drop”. Ricky was awaiting what he believed was a seemingly inevitable event, for Gordy to kill him as well. This whole scene also happening in the middle of act 2 makes me think it was also a representation for the audience, as we were waiting for an explanation on the UFO (UAP). And then as Gordy is killed, and we learn the true nature of the ufo, the other shoe has dropped

I think OJ is alive. During the face off with the alien, the alien was opening up and showing its green inside, much like a peacock opens its tail, or how some animals try to appear bigger. This made me think of dominance displays. OJ looking at the alien in its eye and not backing down, as well as having the colorful strand of flags behind him, discouraged the alien from taking him. I think OJ won the dominance display and the alien decided to move on to a weaker prey. Edit: I KNOW he's shown at the end of the movie, guys. 7:25 brings up the possibility of him being a vision.

Training horses is similar. Although there has to be mutual respect. Keke on the bike made Jean jacket chase her because they didn’t have a understanding like oj did with Jean jacket.

They know that they can be violent, are territorial, and they know that they can have volatile tempers. Which is why sanctuary caretakers never go in the enclosures with them.

(This is just my theory of what it means I may be wrong lol)

@mariaisabel8493 2 года назад

I totally agree!! The movie make it very clear that even the most domesticated animals are still animals, they still have instincts and will never behave as humans so the mirror between both exploitations and the fact that Jupe was in both of the events says that he believes that he can "tame" and connect with both creatures, which we know it was impossible!

There is what used to be a well known story from 2009, where a woman was viciously attacked by a pet Chimpanzee that she had had for years. It nearly ripped her entire face off. At the time, news outlets played the audio of the 911 call from the other person which involved a lot of hysterical screaming. You could hear the terror. This may have been an influence on the story.

Not only that, but the woman revealed her disfigured face from under her veil for the first time on Oprah.

@KAPAFlyer 2 года назад

My absolute favorite aspect is the whole "It's not a ship" aspect brought up by OJ. And he's absolutely right. The fact that "Jean Jacket" noticeably "surveys & retreats" multiple times throughout the film and especially the "blood rain" scene. It's literally like a tiger bringing It's victims to it's target as a "you're next" type of thing. Lastly, the fact that this is not in ANY aspect a "film about aliens". It's an animal that is Not Of Planet Earth.

Idk why, but this stood out to me the most with Gordy's Rampage. As the camera pans in, it captures the 3 Panavision cameras that look kind of like the aliens Jupe tries to sell to his audience. If it was intentional, the trauma he withstood that day might have been what fueled his obsession with those Viewers, constantly feeling under watch by unseen eyes in the midst of a vicious animal. The cinematography and Peele's attention to detail would lead me to believe this is the case (though if not, I still think it's a cool takeaway)

@chadrichards4681 2 года назад

There is something that we still don't know about the TMZ guy's death. He had a helmet on.....his eyes weren't visible, then why does it kill him and not OJ who is right beside him. Does the mirror like finish of his helmet mess with its brain.......does the brief reflection of OJ's eyes on his helmet trigger it ?? Answer to this question IMO will give us more details about Jean Jacket's behaviour.

@furionmax7824 2 года назад

Peele's works always come with a sort of artistic message. Get Out was "Things arent always as they seem" Not sure what US was. But Nope was about respecting animals. Someone point this out in another comment section. The Gordie massacre and the Haywood Ranch were comparing two different ways to handle an animal in show biz. Gordie the Chimp turned out to be one of several chimps used in the film so they never used the same one. That's why this Gordie snapped when the balloon popped. Meanwhile OJs Family Ranch, showed us the correct way to handle an animal and that is to respect it. Don't make eye contact, respect the beast, assert your dominance when necessary, always give it a reward for good behavior and show it kindness overall. What Jupe did however is essentially the same thing I saw a crazy old guy do in Pacific Rim Black when he thought he tamed Kaiju. Jupe thought that just bc he fed Jean Jacket meant they were friends. Same with the old guy, the Kaiju came whenever he had their food ready. But when the two of them didn't have the food their "friends" wanted, they got eaten. And that's the lesson here. Don't be the guy that just feeds the animal. Be the one who befriends and respects it.

I just wanted to leave this rant here, because it's something I've been think about since I watched the movie, which is Jupe's characterization. A lot of people call him arrogant, which I think is definitely a piece of it, but at the same time he is seen practicing the speech and spectacle that he wants to bring to the show. A lot of the Jupiter's claim seems to have been run by his wife. I almost wonder if it was at her urging that this whole show is set up. The trauma that Jupe experienced as a child I think definitely affected him, and I'm not sure that taming UFO was only an act of hubris or if he was urged to do it by an outside influence as well as a desperate bid for lost fame. I'm not really sure, but I don't think it was all arrogance at having survived the Chimp encounter.

To me it was 100% a giant flying cuttle fish. Cuttle fish glide through the water looking like a saucer. They point there legs as one side of the saucer while their rear is the other side. Everything remains in place minus small barely visible rear fins that propel the saucer formed cuttle fish with amazing helicopter like hovering or jet like speed. The alien was very similar. They can change their bodies shape and color in the blink of an eye. One second blending in to a bright blue current, while an instant later appearing as a black rock. Truly a sight to behold. The alien was very similar. They have two large grabber legs that they keep hidden inside their other shorter legs. When the time is right they shoot out these much longer legs and grab their prey. The alien used a similar mild tornado suction to grap it's prey from a distance.. Cuttle fish get their pray to stare at them by using a series of hypnotizing color changes. While their prey stares at the changing colors, it's long hidden arms suddenly grab the prey. The alien used this exact same method at the end of the movie.

Another cool thing is that Jean Jacket came earlier for the sacrificial horse. Even in animals, it is known that when given food at certain times, animals will start to come earlier and earlier over a long period of time and even shows signs of excitement and anticipation. Jean jacket came about an hour earlier than expected and came up all the way to the stage area as opposed to from a distance-- as noted by Jupe trying to instigate Lucky to get him to run off into the desert.
