Jeff gets very hung up on titles, see War for the Planet of the Apes

2024-07-03 11:33:09 +0000 UTCI'm so happy to hear Devindra's defense. I LOVED this movie and did not expect to since I think the first two are just "fine." I think Jeff was criticizing the movie against what he wanted it to be rather than meeting it where it was with what it was going.

2024-07-01 18:25:37 +0000 UTCIt does show day one. The pods/aliens fell down from the sky. That was Day One. But you are correct she’s knocked out for some/most of day one.

2024-07-01 18:09:52 +0000 UTCThe movie doesn't show day one of the invasion. It shows 24 minutes then the main character gets knocked unconscious and wakes up day two. They should have called it A quite place Day Two

2024-07-01 04:52:43 +0000 UTCThey don't show nothing like Jeff says. They show that some of the asteroids land with weird pods that the aliens eat.

2024-07-01 04:43:31 +0000 UTCThey don't discover that the creatures are demons that can only be hurt by holy water in Signs. The movie ends with the family thinking they are aliens.

2024-07-01 04:42:59 +0000 UTCLove Devindra’s take on this film and his passionate defense of prequels that offer something different, and I believe, more meaningful than an explanation of concepts A, B, and C - though I do understand those who feel mislead by the film’s title. Just saw the movie this morning and found it to be a moving statement on what it takes to survive as a species: empathy and cooperation. Shout out to Frodo, the very good boy whose literal job is to give comfort and support to his fragile human friends.

2024-07-01 00:04:19 +0000 UTCI disagree with Jeff. I don’t get the same meaning from “Day One” as he does. To me it just means when it starts. Nothing indicates it’s gonna show the solution to the problem. 🤷🏻♂️ Really enjoyed it. I do agree it doesn’t add anything to the story.
Jerry Mudd
2024-06-30 22:06:24 +0000 UTCIt's still entertaining, but Devindra is completely wrong and Jeff is 1000% right about this movie hand waiving Day One. Even though it is called Day One.

2024-06-29 17:47:48 +0000 UTC100,000% agree with Jeff that we were promised that this would be Day One and it was hand waived away.

2024-06-29 17:46:52 +0000 UTCSounds like this movie needed a good shot of a whiteboard

2024-06-29 16:40:28 +0000 UTCDevindra saying the cat never meows feels like a huge spoiler! Wtf?

2024-06-29 16:26:37 +0000 UTCDevindra’s comments seem to be that he couldn’t imagine an interesting movie where they figure out what the alien’s thing is. I was honestly expecting something similar to Signs where discovery what the hell is going on is a major part of the movie.
Danny Champlin
2024-06-29 14:54:48 +0000 UTCGotta say I was surprised this skips over how they figure things out. Completely with Jeff and Dave here, what the hell is the point of making it? Devindra’s argument doesn’t sound persuasive, but I’m intrigued enough to see it.
