The Message Behind Upcoming Movie "Get Out" (IR Lead Couple)

Don't you think that maybe he's spoofing white people's bias towards blacks, especially men?

Edit: the comment above (glt1980) pretty much confirms it.

Nope he's spoofing black people's biases towards WHITES.

The movie's joke is THIS IS WHAT WILL HAPPEN TO YOU IF YOU DATE WHITE WOMEN AND GO OFF INTO THE COUNTRY WITH WHITE PEOPLE

Mind you I'm going strictly by the trailer

A "HORROR" FILM BASED ON THE EXAGGERATED IDEA OF WHAT WILL HAPPEN TO YOU AS A BLACK MAN IF YOU DATE WHITE WOMEN, HANG OUT WITH WHITE PEOPLE, OR GO OUT TO THE COUNTRY WITH THEM, OTHERWISE KNOWN AS THE SCARE TACTICS MANY BLACK MEN HAVE HEARD BEFORE TO KEEP THEM FROM DATING WHITE WOMEN.

Jesus some of ya'll negroes is slow as fuck

Or it can be coming from the mind of man who has dated white women in areas like this. Like I said get out of the city once in awhile.
I've definitely been that black dude who's dated a girl who's family lives a more rural area with far less black than I'm comfortable with. Driving those roads late at night where the only light comes from your car ain't fun.
Sorry we aren't all one dimensional dudes
 
A common trope in horror movies is the main protagonist being at risk because he or she is an outsider.
Making that outsider a BM in an IR relationship IMO turns up the anxiety factor, I just don't think Peele is trying to send some mixed message about IR relationships, but I can understand how others will see it that way because of the obvious racial element.

I just don't believe it was something political or subliminal on Peele's part. IMO he probably doesn't see IR as that big a deal.
I'm really curious to see how this movie does in theaters and if there will be White moviegoers who get offended by it, since any time White characters do something bad to Black characters, by definition it looks racially motivated.lol
 
lol. What I got from the trailer that it seems to be a town/neighborhood where it seems all the black people that are there have been brainwashed to be subservient to the white people
in the town. They seemed to have made the town fit their way of living where white supremacy is accepted. It kind of looks like it is ran like an modern plantation. Can't wait to see this film.

Absolutely dude! That's all I got from this stupid trailer and an even further joke of a movie months ago.

Those are racist trolls that go around talking about "white guilt" and "white genocide" and all of that. They are the same ones that were going around blaming unarmed black people
for getting killed by the police and telling black people that they need to worry about violence in their neighborhoods and black on black crime not the police officers, but as soon as you call out racism from white people your racist for doing it. LOL! They also believe that the Black Panther Party and the KKK are one in the same. Their ignorance is not even worth taking serious.
If you go to the "A United Kingdom" trailer on youtube in the comments section they are doing the same thing to that movie.


As far as going on that thread I'm going to try and avoid spoilers. Like I said I LOVE the uniqueness of this film and can't wait to see it! Peele just might become the next good young filmmaker in hollywood.:)

He's woke! Recognize the racism on both sides. One thing I rolled my eyes at with SOME of these celebrities calling out racism from Trump and his supporters
was how silent, tolerant and even defended the racism in their own industry, the entertainment industry... AND the justice system. Hypocritical.

Anyways I saw him on Late Night with Seth Meyers and he described it like The Stepford Wives but about race.

This. I've gotten to the point, I no longer take most non-blacks complaining about racism seriously. Most of them are hyproctites who don't have shit to say about the 'cism that goes on in their industries, communities, or even in thier foreign countries.
