So he

Spoiler

probably goes to live with his aunt right since she doesn’t know he killed her husband and his parents and she’s the only surviving relative
She probably in continuous grieving while he goes out to play

yea that was basically my main complaint with the movie. They made it just a "switch" thing instead of it being something to where he grew to hate us. He was creepy and a$$hole-ish through the whole thing really. I guess it was just supposed to be a horror movie through and through though and nothing else. I still found it to be entertaining though. I like the idea korey gave on doubletoasted as far as a sequel goes as well. Where there would be a lex luthor type to come in and try and stop him.

Yeah it’s a slasher movie. That’s pretty much it

Spoiler

Thats regular clowning not bullying and his lie was brushed off like a mosquito so his lie being "good" is put into question

Spoiler: Dawg...

he was literally clowned and pushed down to the ground. When the teacher told old girl to help him up she clowned him again. Then he broke her hand

Did you watch the movie or fell asleep in it?

He wasn't being clowned when he fell to the ground. They were doing the "trust" circle and it was her job to catch him and she didn't want to touch him. Then she called him out for being creepy since he was spying on her

 

[O.T.I.S.]

I'm it even asking that much.

Show him actually getting more commands than "Take The World."

Make him other than a outcast, to really shock us and the other characters.

Stop with that "momma's boy" bullshyt like she didn't see him levitating on the damn ship he came out of the sky in.

Really, the biggest thing that upsets me about the film is the "school shooter/incel" vibes.

Even thinking about the scene with the disceting the lady who's daughter she was keeping away from him who he obviously had sexual feelings for.

Just a sick movie TBH.

It was shot and edited very well with dope effects. The story was trash.

Gotdamn you nikkas are picky af

Movie was trash because his spaceship didn’t give him verbal orders

Dawg... that’s bullying

It was obvious he was a social outcast and got clowned a lot. It’s not that deep

yea you definitely didnt pay attention calling other ppl out when he fell because ol girl didnt catch him during the trust exercise ....breh aint pay no attention to the flick.

The kid was a wasp. He told y’all that. He literally broke it down.

Spoiler

Brandon is asked about the difference between wasp hives and bee hives, and responds that bees colonize, whereas one species of wasp is predatory, attacking and killing until a hive is created. Obviously, Brandon is an alien version of one of these insects — his mask features shoelaces pulled through to look like an insectoid proboscis, and the film spends a solid chunk of time focusing on bugs crawling around.

Spoiler

Breh I don't think that qualifies as bullying when he was spying on the girl. She had every right to be creeped out by her. She was well within her right to call him a creep. Which isn't bullying. If my kid spies on a girl or does something creepy, I'd want him to be called out for it lol

 

[L. Deezy]

I love the movie for the most part, but It's the first movie I can remember that the trailer spoiled it for me.

Still solid.. I feel they really made this movie knowing part 2 would definitely be made instead of a prequel movie to follow, hence just him terrorizing his family/town.

He was being clowned everyday at school, you nikkas are slow or something

we saw two completely different movies its all good. Yo kid gonna be soft af though if thats considered bullying to you mufukka cant take NO joke

 

[Busby]

Saw the movie earlier and i enjoyed it for what it was

The trailer pretty much gave away everything but it doesn’t really kill it for me because you know what you getting yourself into.

Spoiler

Would be interesting to see if a sequel happens

 

[duckbutta]

Movie was okay but had it's flaws...

Nobody gave a fukk about the lawnmowere huh?

He went to go kill the one chick...threatened her...dude came home...and then he just never seems to care about killing her anymore...

Father was beyond stupid trying what he tried in the woods after being really the only person who really believed what the kid was doing...

Plane crash and he was the only survivor...so i guess when they found the dead cops they were like "oh yeah these cops died in that plane crash"...

Was hoping this would be set up to be a series of movies but nope...

I during the car crash scene...wife was looking at me like

This shyt had so much potential but fell short...pretty short...with the 10.95 and free medium popcorn we paid for it though...

movie was good for what it was. The ending was extra campy plus they could have expanded more on his alien origins and they're conquering history
