It was a movie first, in 1973

2024-12-25 22:15:19 +0000 UTCLeonard Nimoy on The Simpsons: "It's all lies, but they're entertaining lies, and isn't that the real truth? The answer is NO." Sylvia is the only person we see who has the correct reaction, which is disgust and anger. 17:50. Huge clue. The shot shows the quite subtle circular shape of the land side edge of the dome despite the low altitude, almost as if we can see the curvature of this tiny, fake planet. I agree that really Truman should have realised all this when he was about 14, but they wanted Jim Carrey for the role, and not a teen actor. Of course, my generation of 14 year olds would have posited a conspiracy theory, but we watched the X Files and thought almost everything was one.

2023-12-27 15:17:13 +0000 UTCThe interviewer mentioning what a big it was to speak to Christophe because he was so protective of his privacy always irks my soul. Beautiful movie.

2023-09-24 00:44:22 +0000 UTCSadly, we are neither Truman nor the actors.. we are the audience.. fully aware and engaged in the spoon fed dramas and story lines presented to us. As you said about the audience in the movie, we are complicit in the wrecking of lives and misery of everyone else, as long as we get our fix of our escape of our own lives. We watch shows like cops, Jerry springer, etc with the thoughts of, well at least that ain't us... we watch fictitious shows thinking, I wish my life was, or can be that. We do it daily, and most times watching the "news". We aren't paid participants in the show, we are the ones who pay to watch it.. pay to occupy our time.. we pay to watch other people live lives as we just watch....

2023-09-22 16:27:42 +0000 UTCI especially loved the foreshadowing of his childhood photo, playing dress up and posing behind bars. This was a fantastic story and one my favorites when it was released. Great reaction.

2023-09-22 04:08:53 +0000 UTCThink about it. It was what he was born into with nothing else to compare his existence to. It would be like growing up Amish minus the outside world being there to taint your reality. A fishbowl with mirrored walls. The strange sun and moon stuff for example? Always happened since he was born, so why question what in his mind has just always been.

2023-09-22 00:08:04 +0000 UTCFirst two seasons are great😀 Goes a bit downhill after that though😅

2023-09-21 19:30:57 +0000 UTCChristophe isn’t pretending to be God. He IS the biblical God. He sends the flood when his creation dispenses him.

2023-09-21 19:00:17 +0000 UTCIt's one of those movies that you can easily enjoy. But once you start to think, you can go really deep into it. Btw, this was released one year before big brother.

2023-09-21 18:59:55 +0000 UTCSeeing Ed Harris in this chilling role reminds me that I’d love to see you react to another faux-reality horror show, the HBO series Westworld.

2023-09-21 18:47:42 +0000 UTCFilmed in Seaside, Florida, a planned community that is every bit as perfect and fake as it seems here.

2023-09-21 17:57:33 +0000 UTCI think the girls in the wedding photo where probably flower girls or some other ceremony role😅

2023-09-21 15:51:24 +0000 UTCJim Carrey has amazing range, definitely one of my favourite actors😄

2023-09-21 15:25:24 +0000 UTCI remember seeing this movie when it was new, I remember all of the promotion going on ahead of it, basically giving-away the central conceit from the jump. Seeing this from the perspective of someone going in completely blind was truly eye-opening, like this was how it was Meant to be experienced but the studio's marketing department had to fuck it up.

2023-09-21 10:40:24 +0000 UTCAnd this movie is the reason I'm always looking for hidden cameras and fake mf's around me lol.

2023-09-21 06:42:13 +0000 UTCAppreciate that
Lenear Boyd
2023-09-21 06:41:19 +0000 UTCI haven't but I will definitely check it out
Lenear Boyd
2023-09-21 06:41:08 +0000 UTCDid you ever see Joe Dirt, Boyd? It's very similar philosophically, but presented almost strictly as a comedy. I just watched it recently because it was free on Premium and I couldn't help noticing the similarities, being a writer myself.

2023-09-21 06:33:59 +0000 UTCWhy are we yelling!!
Nick Chevalier
2023-09-21 06:29:12 +0000 UTCBro, when you started talking about the cave allegory, I thought you were about to have an existential crisis for a moment. 😅 It was a treat to watch you put it all together the way you do. I watch a lot of other reactors, but you're special to me because you have a knack for analysis and interpreting themes that are often lost on your peers. This was one of your best reactions to date; no question.

2023-09-21 06:20:15 +0000 UTCCan we add "Vanilla Sky" to the list, or have you already seen it?

2023-09-21 05:48:31 +0000 UTCI did as well when watching 1st time. I was confused for longer than he was if I remember correctly.
Triforce of Shadows
2023-09-21 05:46:48 +0000 UTCYeah it is based on that ancient story. I forget the name as well.
Triforce of Shadows
2023-09-21 05:45:09 +0000 UTCI believe you were trying to reference Plato's "Allegory of the Cave" when he said "We accept the reality of the world with which we're presented".

2023-09-21 04:59:03 +0000 UTCNeed a Black Dynamite reaction!
Lucas Roberts
2023-09-21 04:56:42 +0000 UTCi've never seen anyone so confused by this movie! it's like he missed the entire explanation at the beginning...it made for a funny reaction though!!
Tron
2023-09-21 04:31:57 +0000 UTCI was bracing for not finding anything new here, and when I saw the video I reflexively, actuality cheered, arms up the air. Let's frickin' get it!
Mike Elder
2023-09-21 04:01:36 +0000 UTCOne of my all time favorite Jim movies. I just laid in bed and im getting back up to watch this with you.
