The goal is to move toward truth, one step at a time, providing clarity on the mysterious symbols in film. What is the point? What is the big picture? What is the large scale structure? Why tell the story? These are ultimately my driving questions. These questions are relevant to storytelling in general so on occasion we will exam classical literature, ancient spiritual texts and myths as needed to elucidate the point and the structure.

Hey man what happened to your Super Bowl Halftime show analysis vid. With Watchmen (show) mixed in
Just now seeing this video in 2024. These observations make me love my favorite film even more! Thank you!
Hi, I admire your study of symbolism and themes in movies! I wish you keep doing this. But I recently saw your video essay of the myth of Gordian knot having gone private. Is there an issue? Will you make the video available again?
The background sound is high making it difficult to comfortably hear what you are saying. Just one notch down and its perfect.
MoS is a good litmus paper test for those who really know the character. Outside typical mainstream media like the TAS, the donner films and other cartoon. When I hear those haters back then whining about how "depressing", "dark" or how "superman never kills", that's a good sign these people never picked any comic book.
Excellent video!!! Thank you for this. What a great movie.
"Let there be Light" 🕯 Genesis 1:3 Let there be Life 🙏🏾
Luke 17: 31-33 31“On that day, the one who is on the housetop and whose goods are in the house must not go down to take them out; and likewise, the one who is in the field must not turn back. 32“Remember Lot’s wife. 33“Whoever seeks to keep his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life will preserve it.” [Literally or Metaphorically?] 🙏🏾🕊
this brings tears to my eyes. thank you and god bless you my friend.
did you remove the video about BvS and the drones?
Na should be up i'll double check though.
@@ReelAnalysis would you mind linking it here. i can't find it.
In other words, be a man not a dick...😉
If there is a Grand Design and you can communicate directly with the designer, then should one not ask the designer if they designed such a feature? If they did design such a feature then it may be worthwhile searching for it. If they did not design such a feature then what is the point in searching for the Grand Design?
This is no judgement on other's proclivities toward such a thing but I only speak for myself when I say, asking directly feels profane and unnecessary. I'd rather listen to the authority inside my own heart. Why I don't ask is because I already know there is a design, I don't need to ask. I trust my heart and my heart tells me what I need to know. I think most people in general feel this natural tendency. You don't really hear people asking filmmakers or storytellers "what's the secret point and structure of your movie?" Director's and other Artists or storytellers won't and shouldn't answer such a question but should evade it at all costs. I guess that's the practical reason for not asking because I expect them to rightfully evade the question.
@@ReelAnalysis I am working on a spec script for Wonder Woman (codename "Rebirth") so I constructed Diana's timeline from BvS through to ZSJL; plugging in everything she does and everything that happens in the story world. Based on this basic homework, and when ZS says ZSJL is supposed to take place, I'm convinced that there is no grand design at play. There are just too many things that are wrong. Do the homework yourself if you don't believe me.
@@omeshsingh8091 Oh fair enough, that's cool. I guess I'd have to look into that to see what you mean.
BvS, I believe, is about our idolatry of pop heroes, the Watchmen of the World, anyone with this kind of Godly power that we project ourselves onto. We forget that we all have a responsibility to look out for our brothers to the left and right of us. We're not excluded from that human duty. We see this with sports stars: they wear colorful, iconic logos and we all fill the stands and bow to them as they "entertain" us. When we cheer for them, we're cheering for ourselves. It is like East Coast Hockey fans or European soccer fans. BvS attempts to examine that relationship we have to superheroes in modern culture.
I believe Snyder's films have a pattern to them, especially so with the knowledge he drew everything before shooting them. I like when you mentioned the shifting of world consciousness because it mirrors how I felt in 2015 after witnessing Snyder's dedication to the universe he was building. I genuinely believe the films Snyder produced would have been a major cultural reset and, like you mention, a shifting of world consciousness that would've triggered another renaissance era comprised of driven and creative people inspired by the messages and iconography in his films.
I'm here for the journey!
Welcome brother!
oh, great, it's finally here I was there when you dropped the man of steel video and, while I think some elements of it are a bit """stretched""" to fit into your perception, i certainly think there's a lot of deliberate choices made by snyder and goyer in order to implant an idea into the viewer, I am proud of your dedication and I wish I'd have a similar degree of it, I applaud your perseverance and, i hope, in time, your talent and insightfulness will be shared onto many people, not just myself
Indeed thank you so much for those kind words. I do stretch a lot with glee because I'm all about that growth mindset where even when you fail, you're on the right path as long as you've learned something from it! Blessings!
We will be ready and waiting.
Dude I've followed you for half a decade. Never stop doing what you do, in all forms. 🖖
You've completed many hours of research to provide this valuable analysis.👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 Few have the patience to take in the lessons and understand the gems this analysis offers. Know the lesson and words of wisdom, falls not on deaf ears. "[12] For whosoever hath, to him shall be given, and he shall have more abundance: but whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken away even that he hath. [13] Therefore speak I to them in parables: because they seeing see not; and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand."
The song is fantastic.
For sure. Krister Linder's remix of Moist - Hearts Burn Slow is one of my favs
Always a good day when you upload brother!
😜 "promosm"
Seriously don't understand why you don't get more views for those pieces of art you're constantly releasing brother. Haven't you thought of trying to promote your channel more on social media etc.? O mean it must be hell of research and work and hours you put into it.... I'm speechless
Please dont stop making content like this!
Appreciate the support! Can't stop won't stop. Frankly it's kind of an obsession. lol But... an obsession with a specific purpose. And we are coming to it soon, very soon.
❤Your new introduction with the sounds and visuals. Genius! This information is helpful on my spiritual journey. May I have some of the texts used for further study? 🙏🏿
Awesome! We must keep the fire of the spiritual journey alive! Some useful resources are Mircea Eliade The Sacred and The Profane, Joseph Campbell Hero With A Thousand Faces, Manly P Hall Secret Teachings of all the ages. But the best book is the one recorded in your own intuition and unconscious. Believe all synchronicities are a guiding spirit trying to communicate with you but it is up to you to correctly interpret them. Peace and blessings 🙏🏾
Parts one and two of this video, I think, are your strongest, and best support and thesis of Snyder’s DC movies! The way you tie together the themes that are all present, and yet just below the surface for the viewer is immaculate! Your use of Nietzsche, and Jung are so succinct and while I haven’t read much Eliade I’m sure you have tied in his work equally as well! Bravo!
21:26 28:24 30:57
There won’t be another Superhero movies like Man of Steel, BvS and ZSJL ever again
The hunter and farmer in contrast with the modern businessman/industrialist. WOW! Amazing analysis
Plenty of HOMO
#sellzsjltonetflix
I saw your Man of Steel thesis a long time ago and was waiting a while for you to do one on BvS, but some years passed and I forgot about it. It suddenly popped into my head and I searched it up, only to find that you have been active again! Cant wait to go through all your vids!
wow, you gave me a whole new perspective on that original sin, its so simple, its not about the apple, its about distrust in Gods word, until now I was always focused on the apple and knowledge gained from it, but now I see that by choosing to eat the fruit, the man is declaring he knows better - he is idolizing himself, thus the fall - I will try to not idealize you (for both our sakes) and will continue to look for the truth even by myself, but you are an immense help, thank you very much
This is CONTENT. Love the analysis
A great deal of research and analysis went into this production. May the excogitator extract the lessons and apply the lessons in their life. 🙏🏿Thank you ReelAnalysis for your productions. "Docendo discimus"
The ancient myths have a lot of wisdom. The elites (i.e. those obsessed with wielding profane power) know this. The false flag Operation Ajax (Ajax is one of the Greeks in the trojan war) from wikipedia: According to the CIA's declassified documents and records, some of the most feared mobsters in Tehran were hired by the CIA to stage pro-Shah riots on 19 August. Other men paid by the CIA were brought into Tehran in buses and trucks, and took over the streets of the city. Between 200 and 300 people were killed because of the conflict. Mosaddegh was arrested, tried and convicted of treason by the Shah's military court.
Yaayy a feature length presentation
Churchillianism in full effect.
An orchestrated masterpiece…
Wow! I see you don't hold back. Certainly, BvS has a metalanguage that reflects more than ever the current global social and political conflict we are experiencing. About the phallus as the representation of progress, it reminds me of the symbolism that Kubrick used in 2001: A Space Odyssey. There we see the black monolith that the phallus represents as a perspective of the tangible, primitive, extrinsic, solid and impenetrable for our limits, while at the end we see the same black monolith seen from a complementary perspective, a vulva, something that represents a portal , totally intangible (not solid), but essentially and paradoxically penetrable from a nature in which humanity transcends and is reborn, hence the "space" baby that returns to Earth as if it were its mother's womb, to create a paradox in which could be interpreted the first appearance of the black monolith through this. Nolan did something similar with the end of Interstellar, since it made a lot of allusion to Kubrick's film.
Nice! Yes! Awesome observation. I can see the juxtapositions between penetrability and impenetrability, phallic and vulvic monolith paradox.In general one might interpret its rotational character as capturing its ever changing nature, a continuous change of perspective from vertical to horizontal and back again. The well known octagonal layers visual can then serve to represent that paradox simultaneously as a monolith in all its perspectives, vertical, horizontal, and both diagonal directions.
Hello reel, is there any way to get in contact with you whether it be Twitter, Instagram, etc?
I used to have twitter but I deleted it. I am on vero @reelanalysis and am trying to look into other options. just got an instagram the other day. also @reelanalysis.
Going to miss Henry Cavill. The man who IS Superman. Whilst James Gunn is talented, his judgement to let Cavill not be the Superman in the new DCU inspires more doubt than faith. Hopefully it goes well.
You deserve a billion views for this. Loving it. A true appreciation of what you’re doing.
Thank you so much!!
Loving these deep dives. Looking forward to the next one
Doubt that Gunn and safran is going to replicate this masterpiece
14:11 I never understood the hatred of how Jimmy Olsen was portrayed. Outside of his name, his role has no bearing to his comic counterpart. Only comic fans know of his significance. If you just watched the movie, he's just Lois' replacement partner for one scene who ends up as a casualty. Compare that to, say, Lady Deathstrike in X2, who is nothing but a mute lackey for Stryker, so you say "I wish there was more to her character" (as in there's very little backstory given to her compared to Jimmy in BvS), then you read the comics/do research on the character and you find out how badly they were adapted.
Is the thumbnail James Gunn? 😂
it’s a midjourney creation of a white haired egomaniac. Any resemblance to james gunn is purely coincidental. :)
You have to also realize that reviving Superman causes Cyborg's dad to die So in a literal sense he was given up in return
Nice, great point.
No more Snyder dceu ... cavil out, affelk etc
I will concede it doesnt look good. Looks about as low as it could possibly get.
Never noticed that Martha scene, its crazy the amount of gems thouse movies have. Love the work, keep it coming sir.
love the poetic intro! "idle hands are the devil's tools", such a simple saying and so much truth
Thanks for watching and directing my attention to that line. That is right on!
Love this channel!
Thanks for watching!
