“US” (by Jordan Peele) Official Thread

[BelowTheMasonDixon]

I'm fairly certain this is going to be good. But the thing I find hilarious in a way is how quick people would be to doubt the genius of Jordan Peele if this basically turns out to be an "average" film with a mostly black cast. Like, black people can't be allowed to make shytty horror movies, when in most cases shytty horror movies are the norm.

This. He's a better writer than Boots, who just started. Even if he goes weird I'm sure he has the talent to actually pull it all together.

I was talking to one of my boys the other day....if you would've told me half of Key & Peele would be carrying horror on his back (between "Get Out", the "Twilight Zone" remake, the "Candyman" remake, and now this) I would've thought you were nuts.

Fred.

Breh, if you would’ve told me I’d check for Peele anything after their corny ass comedy show, I would’ve put up a few g’s in a bet against you...can’t believe where he is now

You know there has to be some type of twist or bigger meaning to this than a simple horror movie.

I think this movie is gonna be a metaphor or commentary on black people being their own worse enemy

I'm not with all this theorizing, but I doubt that scene in the car is the end of the movie. We see how bloody Lupita's shirt gets during the trailer. It's clean in the car. Matter of fact, each family member's doppelganger has a distinct feature that separates them from the original. M'Baku's beard is fuller, the son's face has burn scars, the daughter's hair is permed, Lupita's doesn't have locs. Plus, if that's young Lupita, apparently this happened to her before since we see her doppelganger choking her. Not to mention a family, that just went through some crazy shyt, chilling listening to Luniz like it's just a regular Saturday would be weird. Like I said though, I'm not on that theory shyt

More importantly, doe:



Director's say a lot of things, doe

I don't think so. everybody is their own worst enemy.

The fact he had to come out and say the movie isn't about race is him trying not to get pigeonholed with the same burden Shymalan had after the Sixth Sense where he had to outdo the twist of his first movie.

Like we don't need the new Candyman to be about the dangers of pawging.

Every little snippet of this movie seems like it will be another brilliant one.

rabbits = clones

The rabbits
The fact they're all wearing the same outfit and using scissors
What's up with that particular beach/funhouse

Spoiler

I don't think they're dopplegangers. Manifestations Lupita's character insecurity maybe?
