  • hey, thanks for this. i totally understand it more better now XD

  • the real revelation was at the beginning here "the end" to the real film thats why this doesnt work the same way as the original intended to

  • Nice idea, to d this. Maybe I'm a bit confused as to the timeline of the film, but wouldn't the other parts where you see him on the phone, the black and white parts be before this? I haven't watched your whole upload yet, haven't seen if they'll be worked in, but it seems like they should be first. I guess that might be boring though, have all the phone parts in a row, huh?

  • @MckyMseNTarotCrds no, it's not about being boring.. the version u're describing would be called "the original memento forwards" or something... my version is the original version with all of the scenes in reverse order (hence the title)... looking back i think i did kind of want to keep some of the essence of the original so it wasn't just a bland 'cliff notes' version.. good idea though- i'm sure i'd still watch it, it's a classic film that always keeps you guessing

  • @CocoaLuv22 right, right. I mean, this whole idea is really only for mega fans of the film, as I assume we both are. (It is funny, though: some of the comments on the different parts seem to be from people who've never seen the film before. Why? Very dumb on their part.) My comment just meant, if your purpose was to make the timeline of the film easier to understand, I'd have left out all the black and white parts. They all take place before the "first" scene, in reality.

  • my only complaint is that the black and white scenes all happened first, but in the order they appear in the film. I would have stitched all the b/w scenes together, played them first, then did what you did. Otherwise this is very well made.

  • Does ANYONE understand what backwards means in this case? THE ORIGINAL MOVIE IS PUT TOGETHER WITH THE SCENES IN THE "WRONG" ORDER. This is the film in the order starting at the murder of his wife.

  • If you play Pulp Fiction backwards... well, it's pretty much the same fucking thing.

  • THIS is wrong. -- because the BLACK AND WHITE in the original is actually playing forward and in the correct order already. It's the colored one that is backwards and they meet in the middle.

  • If you watch the Shawshank redemption in reverse...its about a guy who enters a jail by digging a hole into a wall to get fucked in the ass by couple a dudes...

  • Phew, I thought that the movie was allready backwards. ;)

  • As good as this is, the scenes weren't put together correctly. Shouldn't the first scene of this video be when the "incident" takes place?

  • Awww, I thought this was going to be in chronological order. As in after the credits, we are shown all the black and white scenes then all of the colour ones.

    Why hasn't anyone uploaded that on YouTube? I would if I knew how, lol.

  • this is shit can you not upload all of the black and white parts and then then colour ones so that it is in chronological order

  • i didnt realise this while watching the original but if you look at the photo of teddy the first time you see it hes in front of the truck that the memory bloke thinks the killer drove

  • is this how it is on the dvd?

  • this kinda ruins the whole point of he movie, don't you think?

  • Would someone make an MMV of Memento with a song called: "Parasomnia" by Riverside

    would be awesome, just read the lyrics of that song!

  • It's amazing to me that even in chronological order, it's still a great movie.

  • After I first saw Memento, I used my DVR and VCR together and put the whole movie on tape in the correct chronological order. It took hours, but after watching it that way a couple times the story is completely intelligible to me, and now I have no desire to see it in the movie order again.

  • I have Memento on special edition....if i had the right camera i could film the whole movie in chronilogical order.anyone got suggestions on which camera to use to film a movie?

  • Oh shit. What the fuck was the point in this?

  • sorry, CocoaLuv22 i like how you able to upload this to us but im gonna stick to the original but this is great work you done in order for us to understand this movie. 5*

  • Ok, go ahead and put me down if yall want to, but the only thing I had trouble understanding, was Leonard really Sammy Jenkis? And did he really kill his wife with the insulin? Or was Sammy a story that Teddy planted n Leonards minds?

  • @bwd81977 Yes in a way. Leonard tried to cover up his story by making up sammy jenkinis so he wouldnt blame himself for him killing his wife and so he can feel time and heal while making a puzzle to find sammy jenkins. He killed his wife with insulin. And no teddy did not plant in in leanardos mind.

  • Memento in chronology would be all black and white scenes starting with the first one and going forward, then the end scene where Leonard kills Natalie's boyfriend, then all the scenes in color starting from the last one and going backwards.

  • Brilliant.

  • cowbell.

  • did i copy that viacon right. . . .

  • memento isn't memento without the disorder

  • People calm down about this being the backwards version. The normal version is also on youtube. I think it's cool to be able to watch both versions.

  • All of the black and white parts should have been up front before the color parts. In the original, all of the black and white parts moved the story forward to the very end of the movie where the color story begins. You should redo this and upload it again.

  • agree w Philly, what fuckwit loaded this backwards. dumb fuck.

  • @TheRuffianCrash Have you seen the original? The story is backward in color and forward in black and white. The point of watching the color parts backwards is to follow the plot easier rather than the original (reverse plot) way. In the original, the story is in reverse and broken up so that you get a sense of what it's like to experience short-term memory loss.

  • @BereanJames Yes dear, I've seen it and the film is meant to be as it is, not tamperd with by some fool trying to simplify it for the weak minded folk such as yourself. Perhaps you'd be better off watching Barney the dinosaur as I hear its easier to follow...?

  • @TheRuffianCrash You're an idiot, and an ass. You know nothing about film. You know nothing about story. You know nothing except how to puff up your ego. 

  • Comment removed

  • @BereanJames Lol, petty insults and more noise;is this a contest of who gets the last word, my simple friend?

  • but john g told lennard, that he had already killed a few john g's, so, it isn't clear if lennard had finally found the real john g or if he had actually killed his wife

  • nice one now i can understand what is in the film it play backwards ^_^

  • if you play jaws backwards, its about a shark who throws up people intill they open a beach XD

  • @brotherjames10 are you an idiot dude? no offense but sharks dont throw up, they are not anatomically able to do that. why dont you do some research before blurting pointless shit out on youtube you fucking troll.

  • @malows1234 he wasn't serious. you are a noob. trying to down people on youtube when they are joking

  • @TheTheswaggera what do you mean he wasn't serious? he typed it with his own fucking hands, how could he not be serious. if he was joking, it was a real stupid fucking joke, cause i didn't get it. it makes no sense, sharks can't throw up dude, i am not lying, go research it if you want.

  • @malows1234 a lot of people joke on youtube and everywhere else on the internet and he probably didnt know that but that is just what it would look like. i believe you that sharks can't throw up haha but haha idk if youre a kid or not but most kids dont make sense anymore he was just tryin to get thumbs up

  • @malows1234 You're calling the joke retarded cause you didn't get it? Here's the joke: THIS IS MEMENTO BACKWARDS. JAWS BACKWARDS WOULD BE A SHARK THROWING UP A BUNCH OF PEOPLE (INSTEAD OF EATING THEM). It might not be funny but if you don't get that, there's just something wrong with you.

  • @MrHoppybunny your a retard, because this is not memento backwards, this is memento forwards, because the real memento is already backwards. so if make something already backwards backwards, then really your making forwards. so if jaws was played forwards it would still be a shark eating people.

  • @malows1234 WOW how pathetic. You try to reverse it because you know you now look like a complete retard from your previous comment how you DIDN'T GET IT, and now you look even worse because you just can't admit you were wrong. WTF? THIS IS MEMENTO BACKWARDS, it's the title of the video numbnuts. It doesn't matter if this is the original film fixed to be in order, it's still the film backwards. Nice try, dumbshit.

  • @malows1234 and most of the videos on YouTube are pointless

  • The movie never explained where Lenny got the truck from, because the "previous" scene was this one, the final one. I dream with a tv series based in this character, with each episode going backwards until the day of Lenny's wife's murder.

  • @maujo2009 But the film doesn't go backwards. The timeline is a "U" shape. On one side, it's black and white, on the other side, it's in color. The part where it goes from color to black and white is the bottom of the "U".

  • @codebreaker2001 Don't agree.

  • @maujo2009 But it's obvious that it's a U shape. Don't believe me, take a piece a paper and draw a U shape. List the moment that it goes from black and white to Color at the bottom and then watch the movie again. Note each scene that's black and white on one side, and color scenes on the other. It'll give you a visual representation that shows that its U-shaped.

  • @codebreaker2001 In that case it is more like an INVERTED U shape, like a horseshoe.

  • @maujo2009 Inverted or regular, it's a U shape none the less. with the film ending right as the bottom of the U.

  • who killed his wife ?

    im ver skeptikal in deciding whether it was the cop or bandits

  • Why'd he wear john g's clothes again???

  • the backwards version is for people who dont want a puzzle to solve

    are you lying to yourself to be happy?

  • TAKE YOUR FUCKIN PANTS OFF

  • did lenny kill his wife??who was the second murderer (i´´m asking because teddy maybe lied) why did natalie use lenny? why did jimmy know sammy/lenny? a policeman who made lenny to a murderer...come on?..... eeehm....what did i just say? ;-)

  • thanks for putting this up. so is he actually sammy?

  • @dmatt95 he killed his wife with insoline sammy was just a mental block to make him keep finding john g/s

  • @phillyp84, ha ha ha you crack me up man!

  • The black and white scenes are not meant to be put backwards. They were already forward in the movie. The black and white scenes are what happens before any of the coloured scenes.

  • I've seen this movie three ways: The original way, the chronological way (B&W scenes first, then color scenes in chronological order), and now...backwards. What a trip. Different things jumped out at me in each viewing, as the scenes are placed in different contexts. I really enjoyed where some of the B&W scenes popped up in this backward version. Still, my favorite viewing was the first time, in the theater. But I guess that's unrepeatable, unless someone cracks me in the head with a sap.

  • isnt the intro the same as the intro in the actual movie?

  • this movie's a mindfuck

  • AWW WHAT THE CRAP MAN? DOES THAT WHOLE BEGINING WITH THE END TITLE SPOIL THE WHOLE MOVIE????????

  • @Hautegus Yes it does. It spoils everything. I watched it and then saw these videos so i could understand the movie 100%

  • the funny thing about memento, if it was shown in chronological order it wouldn't make any sense, its genius of Nolan to make a movie where it has to be shown in reverse chronological order in order to make sense

  • It's amazing, but when you play this movie "backwards", you still get the color portion in the right order but the black & white portion in the wrong one. This movie is so unique! I've never seen anything like it. The big question, of course, is what was the preceeding scene after the "last" scene, like, how Lenny got the blue truck of if he knew other characters we never met and/or what were the events that led to the photos we never saw him shooting.

  • ty bro was awesome

  • Thanks for the post. I've always wondered what it'd be like in normal order.

  • ees reve lliw ro nees reve ev'I smlif gnizama tsom eht fo eno ylisae !!!!DOIREP

  • the way the timeline is meant to go is black and whites in order THEN colored ones reversed so they go in order too and not backwards.

    but its a great movie the way it was :)

  • I can't find the original version on youtube, this is all wrong, i might aswell turn my monitor upside down and push my breakfast up my ass and take a shit out of my mouth

  • did u actually watch all the clips here?

    this is the normal (forward) version..

    the original one is backward and twisted.

    after watching the original,

    i had to watch this here again,

    to figure it out..

    thanks cocoaluv22

  • @phillyP84... Go to your search bar and type in "youtube.com/theonlinemovielin­ks.

  • @phillyP84 buy the fucking movie then. its worth it.

  • @mike92yeah I don't buy DVD's anymore not when the internet is sitting here waiting to be exploited, I got 24 thumbs up for my comment lol thanks to everyone for the support

  • @phillyP84 hahahhahaha

  • @phillyP84 LOL fuck yes!!

  • @phillyP84

    HAHAHA classic comment for a classic movie. You should have 40 000 thumbs up for that one.

  • @phillyP84 Have been in stitches - possibly the funniest comment I have read on YouTube.. Ever thought of doing standup comedy?

    Also agree - if we need to watch Memento in a different order, just show every scene (both back and white AND colour) in normal chronological order, with Leonard acting forgetful every so often. It's baffling to watch the previously forwards black and white scenes backwards and the previously backwards colour scenes forwards.

  • @phillyP84 LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOL!!! OMG THIS HAS TO BE THE MOST FUNNIES COMMENT ON THIS EARTH!!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAAHAH!!!!!

  • @phillyP84 Hahaha I wish I could up-thumbs a comment a thousand times

  • @Curtisriolet wow 101 thumbs, that's a record for me, thanks for all the support, glad to know my voice doesn't totally blend into the nothing.

    Just want to say, this movie is a masterpiece

  • @phillyP84 lmao

  • @phillyP84 LMFAO

    

  • @phillyP84 This is the original version ?

  • @111134531 yeah i did realise that after i wrote it, but i was getting so many thumbs up i decided to keep it posted, thanks anyway, great movie :D

  • @phillyP84 Oh sorry. No problem.

  • @phillyP84 where would you shove dinner up through?

  • @phillyP84 just type in Memento part 1/10

  • @phillyP84 or buy/rent the movie

  • @phillyP84

    LMFAO>>>LMFAO--push breakfast up my ass and take a shit outta my mouth! That's classic!

  • if you get the special edition version dvd and fill out some iq test or something mybe newer versions dont need it but you can watch it in order so yea this prolly has alife and uploaded the special version

  • Loved this movie!! Memento and the Dark Knight (both Nolan movies) are two of my top favourite films.

  • @gemgem92 then ur a fool

  • So is this the version found on the 2nd disc of the Limited Edition dvd?

  • @vectorsfire I think that version is edited to be black and white sequences, then color sequences.

  • mann! he's awesome director!

    and awesome movie!

  • i think natalie shouldve used lenny to try to kill teddy seeing that teddy made lenny kill her husband

  • @TheSleepersBeats

    thats pretty much exactly what happened

  • could some1 explain the ending 2 me please?

  • The ending is essentially the mid-point of the story. Teddy reveals the truth to Lenny, but he doesn't want to believe it. He had already killed John G., but Teddy kept using him. In a state of disbelief, he gave himself a clue that would have him either kill Teddy and continue his search, or just prove Teddy wrong entirely.

  • thsi movie rocks, i fell asleep watching it and woke up just like the dude with no memory. the phone was ringing but i had no idea what it was at the time. it must have rang 30 times so i picked it up but held it out in the air. only after hearing my moms voice in the phone did i realise what it was. i truly fucked my up i have never been able to reproduce it.

  • this movie was fuckin awesome cuz it makes you think

  • Nice 1 for takin ur time 2 put this up m8!

    Memento is a great film, much better than Fightclub, it's maybe a bit better than american psycho but not a patch on the machinist.

    Still a great film though------thumbs up 4 this!

  • Maybe a bit better than American Psycho?

    American Psycho is a stupid movie with no point at all.

  • American Psycho is a good movie with a brilliant point, this is a far better movie on every level though. American Psycho makes a bold and fierce statement about male macho vanity expressed openly and without conscience.

  • @AK47MONCO Machinist is a piece of shit, ESP compared to Memento...

  • sorry guys- i'm a little late

    in the ORIGINAL MOVIE, the parts in color go backwards and the parts in black & white go forwards

    in MY VERSION the parts in black & white go backwards and the parts in color go forwards...

    it's a bit of a mind-fuck, but this is, without a doubt, "Memento" (the original movie) backwards

    DON'T WATCH THIS IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN THE ORIGINAL!!!

  • yee in fact you needed to cut all the b/w parts and put it all at the begining of the movie before all starts to get a little bit more sense but well thats a lot of work thanks for uploading the movie this way, its interesting, and sorry about my english

  • @CocoaLuv22

    Thou im confused as fuck as to what you did here, Im very greatful to you for uploading this!!!

  • @CocoaLuv22

    Thank you so much for posting this.

  • @CocoaLuv22

    u mean chronological version ?

  • This isn't backwards, its how the story runs.  It starts from the end and plays backwards.

    SO when you posted this, I thought you somehow edited it to run chronological order begininning to end.

  • Hmm..Interesting video, nice of you to put this together.

  • Doesn't the dvd contain a feature to play the movie in chronological order? This is backwards but of course the black and white scenes all move forward in time and occur before all the color scenes. In the movie they are intercut with the color scenes. So chronologically all the b&w scenes would be first in order of apppearence up until he takes the photo of Jimmy and it(the photo and the movie) changes to color, then all the color scenes would follow in reverse order. Right?

  • Yes i think you are right. If you own the 3 disc R2 edition then there is an easter egg featurette that allows you to do it.

  • Right. The b/w "flashback" scenes come first, in the order they appear in the movie, followed by the scenes in color, in the order they appear here.

  • ok, yeah i thought thats how someone told me.  you explained it a lot better than me tho. thanks

  • What's odd if you watch the film in total chronological order, is that the story is so incredibly basic and plain and standard and dull, that it shows that it's the innovative layout that makes this film.

  • exactly, because the innovative thing is that the audience experiences what lenny experience in the same way he does, not knowing what just happened

    however, the story itself in the right order is not that basic, that would be insulting, however, the backwards narrative improves the experience tenfold

  • the story in any sequence is anything but standard or dull

  • Is the movie Backwards or this is how it starts?

  • this is the movie in forward progression, aka not how it is on the featured version. don't watch this if you haven't seen the movie before

  • is this the movie where the guy has short term memory lost and he writes notes on his body about himself?

  • yes this is the movie.

  • hey CocoaLuv22 which part is d climax part? huh 12/12? help me out..

  • great movie just saw it today

  • i saw this movie the other day and it confused the hell outta me...thanks for putting it backwards...
