bleachella Posted July 24, 2022 Share Posted July 24, 2022 I'm so jealous of everyone who can watch this already. Usually movies get released in my country earlier than US but now i have to wait 3 weeks 😒 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This and Us really shows just how confident Jordan Peele is with set pieces and how much he loves playing with his toys. Good shit with that ending. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichWS Posted July 25, 2022 Share Posted July 25, 2022 It doesn't entirely work. The pacing gets a bit wonky, a couple of characters never fully click, it kinda runs out of gas by the end. Having said all that.....holy shit, there's some amazing stuff here and I can't stop thinking about it. Pretty sure I'll be going back soon to see it again. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joel M Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 Does any site have when and where it releases overseas? because the imdb page is all wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnnyGossamer Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 Is it believed that the delayed OS release will hurt the OS box office by it already being released DOM for 2+ weeks especially, I imagine, with some of the OS audience that was on the fence potentially opting to not see Nope with the mixed WOM? Nope's 70% verified aud score at RT is only 10% above that of Us which was prior to verified scores which often resulted in lower audience scores. I imagine it'll finish with something in 65% to 69% as more and more see it. By the way, I liked but didn't love Nope and recommended seeing it in a theater to everyone that asked.

Noctis Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 Does this release on the 3rd of 10th of August in France? I'm hearing conflicting reports. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine a lot of people outside of the US see reactions on Twitter that are decidedly mixed and it might cause some reconsider. Seems this one mostly for diehard Peele fans. I'm also wondering if going forward, at least for his next feature, many will take a "fooled me twice" stance as in they gave him a mulligan for Us but after two mulligans they'll outright wait for rental/streaming for whatever he does next rather than paying to see it in a theater. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean... if memes and tweets and articles and buzz from USA go viral, etc.. it's going to mostly influence other countries who haven't seen the movie this just makes no sense. It's like saying why people in USA would care about what other countries think of a movie? When there's international breakouts every year... RRR, Drive My Car, Parasite.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krissykins Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 Just seen it. It’s a really big swing. I was fully entertained throughout. Some very creepy moments too. Keke Palmer is the stand out, I thought Daniel Kaluuya phoned it in. He was the weak point for me. The best use of sound in the cinema on a huge screen easily this year, maybe of the last few years. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnokesLegs Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 Loved this, and it’s absolutely worth paying the extra for IMAX, it looks and especially sounds incredible. I do feel like the trailers showed far too much though, while not everything is given away, there’s quite a lot that would have been better as a surprise rather than being used as trailer fodder. Spoiler It’d have been so much better to see them figure out that it doesn’t take them if they don’t look at it, having that in the trailer kind of robbed the film of some tension. I liked the alien though, it was nice to have an alien that isn’t just the usual two legged/two armed humanoid type. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FilmFincher Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 I loved this. One of the best of the year for me and everything about it demands a big screen experience. It's been rattling around in my head since I got out of the screening and I can't wait to go again honestly. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WittyUsername Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 Honestly, I don’t get what the people who hate this movie compared to Get Out and Us were expecting. It’s a Jordan Peele movie. Plain and simple. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At a guess, they were probably expecting more of a horror whereas this is more of a sci-fi thriller, but personally I’m glad to see him not just become “the horror guy” when it comes to the movies he makes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
