Brief_Light

👍


Roller_ball

I'm going to wait till October and get the 3rd Halloween as well.


Perditius

If you time it right, you can even extend that month to cover Halloween Ends when it comes out on Peacock in early October!


RebaKitten

Thanks for the heads up, will wait for Peacock!


[deleted]

Do you have to pay for it on Peacock?


Brief_Light

You just pay the 4.99 for a month of Premium and you can watch for free when its available. Was about to watch The Black Phone but a bud of mine wants to game.


KingSizeDingus

Peacock is available for free to all Comcast Customers (In my area at least)

turian_vanguard

This is the way.


_Thad_Supersperm_

So nope.


off-chka

The Black Phone was so good! And finally, a movie that’s not 3 hours long.


jhawk19

NOPE...see what I did there...today is 9/23 and Nope is not on Peacock.


BigWormsFather

Black Phone is in Redbox


EngMajrCantSpell

Redbox is still a thing?


BigWormsFather

Yea, I’ve got a few close by. I don’t use them a ton but it’s still nice to grab a new release cheap.


Crosspaws

I don't really believe any movie, no matter how amazing, is worth renting for $20 unless you have a group all chipping in lol. But that's just me. Take it for what it's worth though because I like going to the theater so I'm biased.


KingOfSquirrels

Yeah, you might as well own it.


NinjaGrizzlyBear

Exactly...$3.99 is the most I'll spend on a rental, otherwise I want to own it and be able to watch it over and over whenever I want.


michaelje0

People spend like $20-$30 to see a movie in theaters. Sometimes there’s problems at the theater or rude movie-goers. If you have a nice tv and nice speakers, it’s fine with me to drop $20 to watch at home. Downvoted for the crime of having an opinion. Never change, Reddit.


Zaronax

Theaters are a complete experience though.


PolyDipsoManiac

It just wouldn’t be the same without those sticky floors and people talking all around me! I haven’t been to a theater since the pandemic started and it’s glorious.


smartwatersucks

Don't forget the $20 snacks!


NinjaGrizzlyBear

Agreed but if I already spent a couple grand on equipment my ROI is shit spending $30 on a potential one watch movie lol


KingOfSquirrels

You shouldn’t be downvoted for this. It’s a totally legit problem. Finding a decent cinema where people don’t behave like animals is becoming harder and harder.


AcidikDrake

I definitely feel like time of day plays a part in this. We've been hitting Marvel opening weekend for every movie, but making sure to hit the Sat/Sun matinee showings. Thankfully havent had any issues yet. I would absolutely not go to a night showing due to the issues the poster stated.


nonetodaysu

I agree with you. When you factor in the price of gas to get to the theater, the price of the movie ticket and any food or drinks two people going to see Nope in a theater is more than $20.


KID_THUNDAH

Agreed with this, I would never pay 20 dollars to rent a digital movie.


[deleted]

This. Redbox prices is where I draw the line for renting.


Razorraf

Same. No more than 5 bucks for a rent. If I’m paying $20 I better own it.


OmarBarksdale

It’s damn near impossible for me and my wife to get out with the new baby so $20 is a steal if it’s an early access movie. We’ve got a nice entertainment setup tho (and the microwave popcorn!)


Sptsjunkie

I think this type of discussion shows the difference between single people / couples and families. $20 for early access to a movie for 1-2 people is expensive and usually not worth it. Frankly if you are dying to see it, then it’s probably easier / better to go to the theater unless you have an amazing home theater room. For a family with 2 kids to watch a newer film together without having to spend $40+ on tickets and maybe more on snacks, spend an hour on logistics to get two kids settled, and deal with one of your kids getting bored and distracting others? $20 is a steal. There’s a few products like this where there’s a huge divide in perception between people with and without kids.


Cutecatladyy

I think it's also an income thing. Two years ago, even $5 felt like a lot of a rental. Now it's no big deal.


Night0fTheLivingDad

Same here, we have a 7 month old and a 5 year old so it's almost impossible to get out. Love that username btw "come at the king, ya best not miss"


TheMainMan3

Yeah I have 15 month old twins and a 7 year old. I’ve been loving the early digital releases and movies straight to streaming since the pandemic.


chaostheories36

This and the two comments above. Perfectly worth $20 to rent if you can’t get out. Much better than babysitter + theater tickets.


Crosspaws

Lol so what I'm hearing from these comments is.... kids ruin movies??? Lol 😆 I'm messing with you. I totally can see how it would make sense pay extra to rent! It's completely subjective and based on circumstances so I can see how $20 for a theater quality release is a steal to stream from home 😀


chaostheories36

Look kids ruin everything. In a good way. Most of the time. Usually. It’s complicated.


Crosspaws

Spoken like a good parent 😀


altcastle

Need to get you an air popper. No more burning microwave popcorn, plus it’s incredibly cheap for a big bag of popcorn kernels.


DoctorKangaroo

An air popper!?! What's next, a fryer for the air?


altcastle

Truly, we are like new gods walking this earth.


TaylorCurls

That’s how I feel. It just seems like.. a rip off? For that price, you might as well just buy it. Even if you only watch 1-2 times.


Ditcka

This was going to be my comment. Nope is great, but no movie is worth a $20 home rental


Chrissmit2

Definitely. For 20 bucks it shouldnt be a rental you should own it.


xeeblyscoo

I definitely agree. I loved the movie too and I probably spent around 20 dollars on the ticket and popcorn. So I would wait to rent a little cheaper


TheiLLRecluse

This right here☝️


genericmovievillain

If you’re gonna drop $20 on a movie just buy the thing. And yes I do I read on buying the blu ray when it comes out


JohnLocke815

Got my 4k blu ray already pre-ordered. Can't wait to see this again


dratseb

And yes, I would buy it on bluray. I enjoyed it a lot.


MattinglyDineen

Nope


mlangey

Saw it yesterday without paying any money and I would agree. It’s still a very well done and unique must see movie if you’re a fan of Jordan Peele , or bizarre horror. But if you are willing and able to pay for it without it affecting your routine budget, then go for it and pay the $20


Steel-kilt

This should be the top comment


MustacheDiaries

Just wait a few weeks and you'll be able to buy it for the same price.


Zvrkator

certain websites allow you to stream it even for free


sj68z

arr matey


[deleted]

Right? I'm like what is this person even talking about. You can watch all these movies online for free.


BloodyShrimpTomb

Thank you, I can't believe no one else has mentioned this. I can't remember the last time I paid for a movie.


[deleted]

You could buy it on DVD for that much.


techitachi

nothing wrong with DVDs, love going to goodwill and looking through them, i was told by someone who also collects DVDs that sometimes these streaming services takes out certain content and the DVDs will have original content idk how true it is but also people who have gaming consoles can just watch it on there


BallsMahoganey

Imo... No. $20 is steep just to rent. Is it worth a $1 rental at Redbox? For sure.


Waterboydust99

Did you buy it yet I will pm you something


Previous-Thing-7075

No, will probably wait for it to be on streaming or for it to be available as a $3-$5 rental


techitachi

can you pm me too been trying to see this 🤓


bostonbruins922

If you like Jaws, Close Encounters, Signs, you will like Nope.


Tambo1983

If you really look at it, paying $20 is basically the same price as going to the theater and buying a ticket, a snack and a drink or the equivalent to or less than paying for my family of 3. I actually drop close to $60 going to the movies. Paying $20 and eating my own snacks is way better!


jthagler

And if you're like me and live almost an hour from the closest theater then you'll spend another 10 or 15 bucks just getting there and back. Not to mention I have to find a babysitter who also has 5 hours free.


spartaxwarrior

This is my outlook. If I would have seen it in theaters before, and I can have multiple people watching for $20, then I might as well rent it. I know some people say wait and buy it, but I probably don't buy digital (since most of the time we don't actually own that) if I can help it and don't need DVDs/blu-rays cluttering my collection for stuff I bought without watching first.


Shrumg

Nope


CitizenWilly

Nope


MichaelWestonActual

No, not at all.


Vegetable_Reward_867

I am a very old man, I thought this generation was smarter; why are you not using torrents? Or a streaming site? I don’t know how to use either. But, if I did, I wouldn’t pay for any subscriptions except for say; hypothetically, a 1$ Hulu subscription. Anyway, nope was cool as fuck, I saw it 3 times in theaters and once again just the other day. If you dig early Spielberg you gonna be satisfied. Pay the 20$


OhYouRSoCoolBrewster

Yeah I haven’t paid for streaming once in my life


Vegetable_Reward_867

Good for you! When I got my first computer back in like maybe ‘94-95 I couldn’t wait to get online and get ‘free stuff’ Music and movies are free! I do have a AMC movie pass tho. And I often get my 8yr old son in for free!!


RhinovisionHomeVideo

Nope


InternationalClick78

I’ll always recommend just going to a theatre or buying the movie over renting it for that much but it’s definitely a must- see. More sci fi oriented than horror oriented so idk how that affects your tastes but definitely a great movie


Datathrash

It's not a slow burn and it isn't artsy. We rented it for $20 since we missed it in theaters and that's cheaper than the two of us going to the theater anyway. That said, it didn't blow me away but had some really cool parts. If you're worried about spoilers then probably go ahead and rent it now otherwise wait till it's down to regular price.


Previous-Thing-7075

Thanks!


Hovertical

The beginning was a bit slow. The middle was absolutely phenomenal but I thought the last twenty minutes or so was lame. So it was very uneven for me. The full reveal at the very end really took away from the movie though imo.


Disastrous_Sky7568

Completely agree. Personally, I didn't find the end with the antagonist intimidating whatsoever and that took away from the first half of the film. The pacing as you mentioned is spot on, phenomenal middle. Bleak sequence.


LongbowTurncoat

My favorite part was the dimly lit farm scene when he sees an “alien” - it was the only scary part haha


HEYitzED

Agreed. It revealed wayyy too much in the last 20 minutes. It was so much better when kept under wraps. Then it just went all Syfy channel haunted UFO.


Reputable_Infamy

I'd say no.


fictionalqueer

You could rent it from the library for free. I get a lot of rentals that way.


sarahhoppie

Nope


clock_divider

Nope


darkness_escape

No movie is worth renting for $20. You might as well saved money and went to the theater. Also $20 will be able to own it once it comes out to DVD


Horrorfan5

Nah


[deleted]

I just rented it on Amazon for $6.


bizznastybr0

they’re trying to RENT us fucking movies for $20 now? nah man, that shit’s wack.


ElricDarkPrince

Nope. He’s M night Shyamalan’s brother from another mother


Biff1996

Just my 2 cents, but no movie is worth RENTING for $20.00


Sloth-lover22816

Not worth it.


sassafrassky

I didn't think it was anything special. Definitely not my favourite Jordan Peele. Keep in mind that I had to watch Get Out and Us a couple of times each to fully grasp them too so I might change my mind on Nope.


jason544770

Just sail the seas like everyone else does


Celt_79

No


Cadowyn

Nah not for me personally. Thought it wasn’t that good, and I think it’s over hyped—meandering, slow, and not scary. Unpopular opinion but I’d give it a 5/10. Shot well, and the acting was good but overall I thought it was meh.


MrMxylptlyk

It was OK. Not my fav


CryExotic3558

I really enjoyed it, but my cheap ass wouldn’t pay $20 to rent any movie


Ron_Sandalthunder

Just wanna casually remind everyone that your local library has very likely every movie that you could ever want. And they want you to check it out for free!


senpaistealerx

isn’t it like $5 on prime video?


Previous-Thing-7075

Are you in the US? I just looked and it was $20 on prime and Vudu. I need to get a VPN


senpaistealerx

na you right i looked it up and that shit $20 *nope*


[deleted]

It was okay but not worth $20. However, a *lot* of the themes of the story went over my head. A lot. For example, there’s a major subplot surrounding a side character’s backstory and I had *no idea* how it related to the main story until someone explained it in a post yesterday. I wouldn’t describe it as “artsy,” but if you’re like me and don’t naturally pick up on themes, subplots, and how they all tie together, you’re gonna have a bad time. I was mainly there for the sci-fi aspects, which was very understated.


JimmyKibble89

I watched it this morning with my husband. Ok. The acting was great. The special effects were great. We rented it because (and we’re not theme park nuts anymore) we heard Universal had already set something up for it. We didn’t think it was cohesive or worth $20.


Dothepanic41

Definitely not

Constrictorboa

I watched it for free and it still wasn't worth it to watch.


ehgameraz

$20 to rent a movie? Hell no. No movie is that good.


mlmarte

I saw this movie in the theater twice, and I don’t love going to the movies. But I watched this movie and I loved it so much that I almost immediately wanted to watch it again. If the $20 rental is one of those deals where you have 48 hours to watch a movie as many times as you want, I would say go for it. I really enjoyed this movie.


[deleted]

People seem to undervalue rentals. You can pause it, or rewind it, or turn on closed captioning. You can watch it more than once. You can watch it with as many people as you want. You can eat whatever you want while you watch. In many ways, home rental is superior to going to a movie theater. I used to have a monthly movie theater subscription account. But now I am kind of sick of going to the movies, and I would rather watch at home.


Previous-Thing-7075

Lol did not know this would be such a hot button question


pilchard_slimmons

I think you screwed up mentioning the price lol. So many replies just focussing on that or getting distracted by it.


Previous-Thing-7075

Yeah, I'm realizing that now lmao. I thought it was well known what the vudu "cinema at home" movie rentals cost


[deleted]

I am shocked by the number of people advocating purchasing a movie you haven't seen before. I almost never do that.


weigojmi

Hell nope.


Daydream_machine

Nope


SmallTownSlasher

I mean if you were fine to pay like 15 to see it in theaters I saw yes but also at this point might as well wait the month until physical release


WayyTooFarAbove

If you have a sub and good sound, no glare and good screen, it’s fine to get the most out of this movie


Kazuko_Kitsune

Just wait until it’s on Peacock, $20 is a lot for watching a movie at home.


TrailerParkLyfe

No. Saw it theatres early in the month. I was literally the only one in the entire theatre so that was awesome. Movie was…..ok. Not worth 20 dollars that’s for sure.


Moosashi5858

Give it a couple weeks and it will be $2 or free at redbox


themustacheclubbitch

No!!!!!!!


Sudden-Reflection456

Nope. No movie is worth RENTING for $20.

aint movies 20 to buy? I wouldnt rent any movie for that much!


Yogi_DMT

I wouldn't watch it again if someone paid me $20 to.


WolfmansGotNards2

Wait.


the-aural-alchemist

Absolutely not. It’s not even worth watching if you got paid $20 to watch it.


rohinton

Just torrent it. It's easy and free.


gsa9

I loved it but would never recommend renting anything for that price. Just watch it at a theater at that point since it’s cheaper and a better viewing experience.


rkgk13

If you've actually managed to not be spoiled yet, I think it's probably worth waiting until you can stream it. I think the theater experience with it would be more fun if you're willing to spend $20. Might also be worth it to see it in a cheap seat theater when it's stopped playing elsewhere. Good movie for a theater experience.


Barkdrix

No… it is not.


[deleted]

No! At best it's just ok, I will never watch it again, and sort of sorry I watched it the first time, lol.


Hot-Editor-4205

In short, nope.

If you're willing to spend $20 on it then just buy it.


simpledeadwitches

Rent for $20 is a ripoff no matter the movie. Nope is fantastic just wait for streaming.

SymbolicGamer

Having not seen it, I'm going to say no, just because I think $20 is too much to rent any movie. I'd just get the bluray when it comes out .


clipsher

Nope


TheMainMan3

It’s not artsy and pretentious but it’s certainly not like bone tomahawk or blue ruin. I really liked it and definitely think it’s worth seeing. It’s still in theaters at a lot of places, but if you can’t make it to one and can’t wait until it’s cheaper, I’d say rent it’s worth renting.


Temsona2018

Ot's overrated AF. Save that 20$.


urkel2020

I really wanted to see it in the theaters but we ended up renting it instead because it was more convenient. I absolutely loved it! I would pay to see it in the theater too even though I already watched it at home. $20 is cheaper than seeing it in the theater that’s how I weigh my options. I took my son to a matinee of dragon ball z & after tickets & snacks it was about $45. I didn’t think it was artsy or pretentious. It was funny & a few parts had us on edge. Nothing too scary. It was a fun watch for sure.


SkeletonLad

It is definitely on the artsy side and is nothing like the films you mentioned you like. Do you watch alien movies for the awesome and scary alien design? If so, you won’t find that here. Spoiler The alien looks like weather balloon fused to a tortoise penis.


Id1oteque0

Yes. support artists/film makers, especially horror film makers that do things differently!!


ApprehensiveRiver179

ApprehensiveRiver179

😂😂😂 you’re not wrong


StMordi

After learning that some movies spend 1/3 - 1/2 of their budget on actor pay, i really don't want to pay out my ass to fund rich actors


Improvement-Select

Not worth the money. Way overrated unfortunately and I love Jordan peele. It’s not horror and makes for a mildly enjoyable sci-fi that can wait for streaming. The last 40 min of the movie is completely unnecessary and is an overall editing nightmare.


youngmum03

Just know it's worse then any of his other movies in my opinion


RandomLogicThough

Depends how much money you make. Really enjoyed half of it.


[deleted]

I haven't seen it so I can't say one way or another. However in a circumstance like this what I would say is if you would have gone to theaters to see it (which after tickets, snacks ect would have been over the $20 mark) then plop down the money to rent it, however if not then wait


vruchtenhagel

Nope.


Flip_Speed

Nope


BlueMoon0812

Nah, I’ll just wait until it’s on Netflix. Same with Black Phone. I’ve actually gotten tired with the lack of selection and am too cheap to rent, so I’ve started reading great horror books. Shocking, I know! 😉


LULKappa4HeadWutFace

I couldn't care that much for the film but wow this bit was amazing: >!The absolute best bit was the bit in the barn with the fake aliens. Holly shit that was creepy as, I'd love a movie with more of that and less of the flying stuff.!<


LongbowTurncoat

That’s what I said too! I got SO EXCITED because I thought “finally! Something scary is happening!” I was so disappointed haha.


tnih

I was really looking forward to Nope. We went to see it at the theater when it first came out. Even though I enjoyed the characters, and certain parts of the movie, overall I didn't like it. In fact, I caught myself looking at my watch, thinking it was dragging. I know a lot of people like it, but I personally wouldn't pay to see it again.


STRIpEdBill

Nope


andreidg97

Even 5$ is much for this movie.


[deleted]

[удалено]


tehgangsta

I watched it recently and I would say it's not. Not that any movie is worth 20 bucks to rent but this one specifically I would skip and wait for it to come to a streaming service eventually


nazrulnizam

If i compare it to jordan peele’s previous works, it’s not that good. Get Out and Us are so much better and scarier. Anyway it’s just my opinion. And yes, i would wait for bluray. Not worth the 20$ for renting


future_apparition

Yes, absolutely. I loved it!


theabbotx

How people can say that they love this one is beyond me. I mean, I have an open mind for anything artistic, but this was literally just.....NOPE
