The lighthouse is basically just about Robert Pattinson and Dafoe fighting over an oscar than neither one of them wins

Honestly should have counted the gull as a kill just because.

I can't imagine seeing this in theaters with no subtitles. There's no way anyone understood more than 30% of the dialogue.

I'm so sick of horror movies being snubbed by the Academy. Not only did Dafoe and Pattinson deserve nominations, but I'd say the costume designer deserved wins for this film and The Witch. Midsommar is another one that should've won that category, and also given Florence Pugh a nom.

The final scene of Robert Pattinson’s distorted screaming is genuinely haunting

I rewatched and just realized, Wake said his first wickie that went insane due to the lighthouse had one eye. Winslow is being tormented by a one-eyed seagull. I feel hella stupid

15:42 “they exhaust themselves and do a drunken slow dance, nearly kiss each other, and get into a fisticuffs brawl of ‘no homo’” is the perfect summary of this movie

I keep forgetting that Robert Patterson is British. He does a really good job at hiding his accent

Rule 1) Never kill a sea bird. Rule 2) Never insult Willem Dafoe’s cooking

The only thing that could have made James' monologue better is chelsea saying "fine you win I'll like the video" at the end

This is how I interpreted this movie. The whole thing was a spiritual allegory. Thomas Howard was his real name, and him being on the island was him being stuck in Purgatory with a chance for salvation after he chose not to save the real Winslow. The light of the lighthouse was the entrance to Heaven that Thomas was trying to get to, and Thomas Wake was the gate keeper/guardian angel trying to help him obtain salvation, and the logbook was a record of Howard's sins (even Wake's name can be seen as a spiritual connection to Howard, "Thomas" "Wake"). He was testing Howard and during his time in Purgatory, and didn't want him to see himself as an evil person, which is why he didn't want him to "spill the beans". Howard lost his chance at salvation by killing Wake, which is why when he tried to go to the light (Heaven), he was cast out and fell into the darkness below (Hell). Seeing him being disemboweled by the seagulls at the end was his eternal punishment (the seagulls throughout the movie either representing angels, demons, or the souls of other sailors who either achieved salvation, damnation, or were stuck in Purgatory, like the one eyed man/seagull).

really happy Pattinson was able to shake off the reputation of being mr sparkles the vampire. dude has serious acting talent

These last few "to the numbers" gags have been nothing short of incredible. Props to ya James!

I can't believe they built a whole ass light house for this film

The delivery of the "if I had a steak" line is SO PRICELESS. I COULDN'T STOP LAUGHING FOR 5 MINUTES

Why is nobody talking about James’ reinterpretation of Willem Dafoe’s monologue before he gets to the numbers? I mean that was truly one of the best “Get to the numbers” gags I’ve ever seen on this channel, and he’s had a lot of good ones but this one in particular I rewatched just to hear how well he was reciting and creating his own bit of dialogue in there. Truly impressive, and one of the many things I truly like about James and this channel!

"Yo is that a tentacle??" "Wake might have an internet connection up there!" 😂😂

Green Goblin and Batman get stuck at a lighthouse and go insane.
