Of course, there is no such thing as "too much cheese."
I am glad you clarified that!

I just saw it. It's on HBO now.

I agree with all of you. It was a great movie. They call it a horror movie. I wouldn't call it that. Jordan Peele should be nominated for an Oscar. Same with Daniel kaluuya. He was awesome.

I have one question. Did the old people agree to die when they got their brains cut out for the switch? Or was it just a little bit of their brain and they were still alive? Were they just waiting for the black guy to take over their lives?

It was also cool that they had a guy that looked and sounded exactly like Joe Maddon. Fuck Bill Murray playing him in a movie. This guy should get that part.

The great Bradley Whitford.

The old people's bodies died and they basically took over the young black people.

What was the meaning behind Chris's eyes getting blood shot at certain times in the movie. Didn't get that either.

I know it's just a movie and it was trying to make a point.

But I don't get the "Only black people" part. Obviously all these old ass crackers are racist. Like that old broad that got her new husband as that black guy. She's a racist as well. Wouldn't she have wanted to get a young white dude (A Brad Pitt type) so her old ass could bang him? Instead, as a racist, she decided to get a young black dude to be her new husband with her husband's brain. So she's a racist and decided to make her husband black. Doesn't make sense.

And I'm sure that old lady had friends that weren't a part of this cult. Probably kids and grand kids. How the hell does she explain to them that she decided to marry a 30 year old black dude that dresses and talks like an old ass cracker? And what are her kids thinking about a 30 year old black dude wants to marry her old white ass?

Old lady's kids: Where did you meet him, mom?

Old Lady: At the club.

All joking aside, it was a very uncomfortable, thought-provoking movie.

Nothing better than Dan talking this movie up while totally not understanding how much he resembles the overall message almost everyday on his show.

Quote:
seemingly innocuous allies whose celebration of Black identity can, at times, actually heighten racial tensions.


Peele has expressed interest in addressing other liberal dogma pertaining to welfare specifically in coming projects. So look forward to him quickly becoming persona non grata if he touches the single mother or murder rates in the black community. Nothing like watching the far-left eat its own on a daily basis.

Absolutely. Equally amazing that Goff doesn't understand what you just said. So I'm thinking Bernstein did Goff like was done in the movie. Goff is actually Dan's Dad. Larry is Dan's mom.

Wow. Get Out nominated for Best Film, Peele nominated for Best Screen Play, and Daniel Kayuula nominated for Best Actor.

I think Peele deserves some Oscar love for writer and director. It'd be nice to see Kaluuya get actor...but i know that never happens with horror.

Probably because the black guy got away in the end. Bernstein felt the same way.

I know you hate me, Spmack. But I loved when that white bitch girlfriend was shot by her grandfather. I wish her boyfriend would have chocked her out at the end. That would have been a better ending. But they made him have a heart. Fuck that.

Maybe I missed the bigger picture, but I hated the white characters actual acting.
I liked the protagonist, he was awesome in Black Mirror.
The directing and screenplay, I guess, were kind of original.
I dunno, I just kinda sat there at the end and was like, well, that's a movie I saw.
Kinda felt the same way about 'mother!'.

Ok, thanks. Maybe it resonated with me more.

It came out too early. Generally March movies are movies like Jackass or Mall Cop or some dumb shit. You want to come out in November/December to get in the race. Exceptions apply.

When they thought of this movie they didn't think it would be an Oscar winner. That's why it was released so early. But it was received better than they thought. Plus, in this America climate, with our racist President, it resonated more. Two years ago it wouldn't have been nominated.

But I never considered it a horror movie. Nor did the academy voters.

You can make sense when you want to.

Hollywood likes ta release “black” movies in Feb/March. That is their way of being equal.

I have yet to see anyone hate on it. Shirtless driver’s comments are literally the most critical I’ve ever seen of it and he didn’t even dislike it.

they're not really criticisms of the movie. just his personal comments about the acting.

i just hope this paves the way for a rebirth of the horror genre in the mainstream. there's plenty of originality buried in the indie world. i'd like to see some of these projects get bigger budges and releases.

Agreed. The fear of technology and its results on the future should provide ample ground for mainstream horror on its own.

Get Out is hardly horror.

I watched it this evening. It was good. Very creepy in a Twilight Zone kind of way.

The alternate ending is what I thought the actual ending was going to be.
