Popular GameStop trader Roaring Kitty’s apparent return to Twitter has rocked the social media and financial landscape. But what on earth is he tweeting?
Than to come back with his trademark GME YOLO Update Or while analyzing his beloved stock GameStop, he started posting movie memes compiled by meme influencers, compiling iconic scenes and inspirational monologues. Then people tried to decipher what he was trying to say.
Best known as Keith Gill. roaring kitty Alternatively, DeepFuckingValue was a key figure in the 2021 GameStop short squeeze. Before disappearing in 2021, his Twitter account frequently posted movie memes similar to the ones he posts today. But after three years of radio silence, the meme is now taking on greater weight and driving large-scale trading activity.
So here decryption We’ve rounded up the most notable movie mentions and tried To get some meaning out of it.
“Okay, I’ll do it myself.”
Movies: “Avengers: Age of Ultron” (2015) and “X-Men Origins: Wolverine” (2009)
The note began the movie post with Thanos from Avengers: Age of Ultron, showing him wearing the Infinity Gauntlet and saying, “Okay, I’ll do it myself.” This announced to the world that the Marvel villain would be returning in person, as he had the goal of halving the universe’s population via the powerful Infinity Stones.
It then cuts to a scene from ‘X-Men Origins: Wolverine’ where scientists are experimenting on superheroes. Wolverine grows claws adorned with adamantium and wakes up from his sedation. This basically looks like Roaring Kitty saying, “I’m back and ready to mess up the game.”
But looking deeper into the original scene, we see that the superhero was voluntarily sedated by scientists. Does this mean Twitter’s favorite GameStop influencer was asked to remain silent by a group and he agreed? Or are we reading too deeply into this comic book movie clip?
“it’s over”
Movies/TV Shows: “Ferris Bueller’s Day Off” (1986) and “Breaking Bad” S1E1 (2012)
In his second movie tweet, the memer references both “Ferris Bueller’s Day Off” and “Breaking Bad.” Both works are classics in their own right. It begins with Ferris saying, “Are you still here?” “It’s over,” to which Walter White responded, “When I say it’s over, it’s over.”
This is an obvious reference to “It’s so over.” Nana The degens erupt when their investments don’t look too good. Many people believed that with Roaring Kitty gone, the GameStop saga was over. GameStop fails after multiple attempts To capitalize on fame in 2021. But Gill, represented by Walter White, seems to be saying that it’s not over until he says so.
change direction
Movies: ‘Fast & Furious 7’ (2015), ‘Drive’ (2011)
Starting with an iconic scene from the ‘Fast and Furious’ movie ‘Furious 7,’ which was released after the death of Paul Walker, Roaring Kitty is planning to part ways with investing in meme stocks. That is, until the middle clip, which is not in the movie, shows a driver roughly applying the handbrake, and right before the clip from ‘Drive’, Ryan Gosling is shown cruising down the street, carefully watching to see if anyone is following him.
This seems to suggest that Roaring Kitty had considered leaving the scene for good, but then underwent a drastic change in judgement. What triggered this change? Who knows. But now he’s back, patrolling the financial streets, watching his back like a getaway driver in the movie Drive, making sure he doesn’t break down like he did last time.
“The days of dogs are over.”
TV Shows and Movies: “Sherlock” S2E1 (2012) and “Remember the Titans” (2000)
This appears to be a warning to those who invest in Dogcoin. In one scene from the BBC’s ‘Sherlock’ series, Irene Adler is about to be executed when the famous detective saves her by telling her to run. It feels like Roaring Kitty is speaking directly to us.
After a short clip from “Remember the Titans” in which the cast begins singing “Ain’t No Mountain High Enough” by Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell, it cuts to the music video for “Dog Days Are Over” by Florence & The Machine. .
A message telling you to leave Gacoin? some guesses Instead, it is said that the request was to invest in cat coins. But Gill may not be implying all that much.
Avengers Initiative
Movies: “Iron Man” (2008) and “Avengers: Endgame” (2019)
This is very simple. This is a rallying call. He wants to unite the meme stock scene to take down Thanos, who he previously called himself. But in this context, we’re going to assume that the last thing the field wanted to beat was a hedge fund.
“They found a loophole”
Movie: “Old School” (2003)
A clip from the buddy comedy “Old School” begins. “They may look like idiots, but they are actually very good at paperwork.”
This may have something to do with how many GameStop investors felt screwed by the traditional financial world. A representative example is this. robin hood GameStop trading halted. some reddit Merchants believed it was legal due to a loophole.
Does the latter part of the clip continue to show college brothers dancing in unison? No clue. But it’s fun!
3 years of night
Movie: “Batman” (2022)
Roaring Kitty seems to paint a picture of what life was like after he left. It was getting dark and he was a nocturnal animal. But now he is back and sending a message to the financial world: Be afraid. Besides, isn’t that person Batman?
“Requel”
Movie: “Scream” (2022)
Last year’s movie adaptation “stupid money” covers the 2021 GameStop short squeeze with Paul Dano as Roaring Kitty. In this tweet, it appears that the real trader thinks the movie itself is also somewhat stupid.
He is back to release the ‘requel’ of the short Squeeze in 2021 to make up for the film that was released last year. What did he notice? Will this be a short squeeze for GameStop?
Gamestuoooooooooooooooo
Movie: ‘Braveheart’ (1995)
He finally said it. None of Roaring Kitty’s tweets up to this point have directly mentioned the meme stock that made him famous. Does this mean everything he hints at in this video applies to GameStop? Or is it just a nod to his roots?
It’s also very powerful to think that GameStop is synonymous with freedom. The power of used video games… and the endless piles of Funko Pop toys that clog most stores these days.
keep it real
TV Show: “Chappelle’s Show” S2E7 (2004)
The growling kitty seems angry for some reason. It’s unclear who or how he got angry, but it looks like he’s been holding back for a while. He is Mr. After playing the Nice Guy role, he reintroduces himself and no longer listens to anyone.
There’s a thread running through Roaring Kitty’s tweets. There are many rallying cries for his followers, including the message that there is a tough fight ahead and that it is time to fight in the financial markets.
He hints at a possible reason for his silence over the past three years. Perhaps he didn’t see the financial opportunity arising. Maybe he stayed silent or was just being polite. Whatever the case, he’s changed his mind and is pedaling.
He appears to be seeing something that will rival the GameStop short squeeze in 2021. He calls it a “requel”. Maybe it’s GameStop, maybe it’s a non-dog meme coin, or maybe there’s something we’re missing. We’re not sure, but we’ll keep analyzing for clues until Roaring Kitty posts something more substantive than a movie, TV, and music video mashup with a provocative message.
