I havent seen it yet, but my friend said its Jordan Peeles best movie and one of the best of the year. Literally the only person Ive heard say either of those things, but I tend to have similar taste to him, so curious to check it out. I doubt it will get a theatrical release here though, at least not near me.

Pretty much. Between a general shift away from people accepting awful jobs for terrible pay and theatres generally barely being able to afford to pay anyone at all (let alone a shift premium) because their revenues have tanked due to Covid, theatres that can manage to staff night shifts - which tend to see fewer ticket sales anyway - are few and far between.

I loved Get Out. Us was pretty disappointing.

I guess this one is the tiebreaker.

I enjoyed it about the same as Us but not as much as Get Out. Although I was confused about why the hand-camera guy just walked into the open and killed himself towards the end

I agree with your assessment. Interesting film. I liked it. But it's the weakest one he's done so far imo. I would recommend watching it on streaming for sure.

i was discussing this with my bf after we watched it. before he walked out with the one camera he told the kid "no one deserves to see the impossible" because they were getting the "impossible shot." i think he was so overtaken by what he saw he wanted to destroy the footage because he felt no one should see it. it was something special and obviously out of this world.

every time we saw him prior to this scene he was editing very weird footage of different animals killing each other

i think the allegory for the movie is supposed to be about animal abuse in the entertainment industry. so i think this was his way of saying like if this footage gets out, this animal will definitely be either killed or somehow restrained and have something nefarious happen to it and those outcomes would all be because HE filmed and released the footage.

That says a lot. I didnt think that Us was that good. The first one with the sunken people was dope tho

That's a good take. I did notice the animals eating/killing each other in his footage. So basically he seemed obsessed with the way animals consume each other and didn't want to be responsible for ending the largest animal vore around lol

Although I'm sure he could've figured out another way to destroy the photos without ending his life. Simply exposing the film to sunlight would work right?

And yeah definitely agree with the theme of animal abuse and the fact that you can't always tame a wild animal/predator

Well, the perfect shot with his history of predation videos would have been... well, being the prey. The idea of the animal abuse and usage in Hollywood does lend to why the Gordy (I think that was the monkey) segments where in. For the one guys history they didnt really add anything else to the movie.

My only complaint was Daniel Kaluuya's character in the film had a more calm and aloof temperament than male leads I prefer. I'm into more brash and heroic types. Not that the character didn't have his moments. Besides, Peele is a genius and far be it from me to edit his work. I just liked the sister a bit better. She was charming and a fighter. My kinda woman.

Remember Matthew McConaughey's character and how he went out in Reign of Fire? That's what I'm talking about. This shit gives me chills every time I watch it. It feels righteous. I don't care how big and scary the monster is. Imma grab a giant axe and jump off a fucking tower at it. Fuck yeah!

If you haven't seen Reign of Fire, this will spoil it a but, I'd go watch it. It's slow at times, but my my them crescendos

Yeah I can get behind that. Hopefully the camera is still intact when it eventually gets shit out!

Im pretty sure you can see the film cartridge come to the ground when It goes after Frys guy and regurgitates. Those type of film cartridges are closed to light even after theyre taken off. So it could theoretically survive.

That makes sense, but isn't that at odds with his statement that no one deserves to see the impossible?
