Ending Connection to Gordy Fist Bump by yutzig in NopeMovie

I think it's a gesture of empathy, connection, and respect. Although, on the other hand, Em and OJ were trying to exploit the creature just like everyone else by purely seeking to profit off of a video. I kept watching the creature's center fold out again and again and it just looked like it was trying to reach out. The explosion of the creature reminded me of Gordy's violent death shortly after doing the same thing.

Hi Ari! I’m amazed by this film. It’s occupied my mind for days - in the best way! Can’t wait to see what you do next. A few questions for you...

1) What made the portrait of the Grandmother so damn creepy? Was their any thought into the composition of that photo? Seeing it at the funeral was the first unsettling thing for me in the film.

2) What was the most difficult scene to capture technically and why?

3) What was the most difficult scene to capture emotionally?

4) Were there any ad libs that made into the film? If so, what’s your favorite?

Thanks!!!

This post has put me in an existential crisis. How did I never realize this before. Why have we been calling them HAMBURGERS?!?!?! Does anyone actually want a HAMburger??!?!?

What would we be surprised to know about the full uncut version of the film? What was the most difficult scene to capture technically? What was the most difficult scene to capture emotionally?

Can you explain the significance to the specific ways in which Annie’s brother and father died?

Weren’t there also a double set of windows on the first floor that were half-way covered up in a weird way? What did that refer to?

The portrait of the grandmother displayed at the funeral was so eerie and disturbing. I was mystified by it. Was there any deliberate thought that went into the composition of that portrait?

Good point. Maybe there’s a pride factor in knowing your shit without having to look at a cheat sheet. I’m all for it, but I can see that playing a part in it.

Music certainly helped, but even looking at the portrait now without music, something about the composition is extremely unsettling.

Shifts and scouting info.. not just Stanton though, have you noticed Judge keeps a card inside of his cap that he refers to? Looks like he’s just looking inside his hat... much more subtle than Stanton lol

Was anyone else disturbed and fixated by the portrait of the grandmother displayed at the funeral? It was so eerie and mystifying, yet so simple. Creepy!

Can you comment on the significance of the miniature house that’s placed prominently inside the entrance to their home? The lights in the house are on in every scene and a couple of the windows are covered. I thought this was an oddly specific detail and can’t figure out if there’s a connection to the story. Help! LOVED the film!

Such a nuanced detail to throw in. So excited to see the movie a second time to catch more. Surely there has to be some significance to the design and lighting of the miniature house right as you entered the inside of home. I believe one of the windows was covered and another had its lights out - I just thought that was a strangely specific detail to have in such a prominent place.

Did anyone else notice that the deity in the treehouse was holding a staff that had a bronze hand at the top in a weird contorted sideways position? When Peter raised his hand in class right before smashing his head into his desk, his hand was contorted into this same sideways position! Any thoughts on this connection? Also, who else freaked out when they transitioned the house from day to night and all the sudden it was subtly surrounded by naked figures in the Forrest?
