In hindsight, she didn't even stand up to cop bc it was the right thing to do. She knew that if the cop saw his ID, it might be traced back to them being stopped there, once he went missing.
@@JamesSmith-ov5um nah. If you didn't know, There was an alternate ending where he did get arrested, definitely because he did murder the armitage family. Cause for Real, how are you going to explain that you were held against your will and was gonna have a guys brain put in your body. So they went with the Happy Ending of Rodge coming to his rescue. But yeah stuff like this, you do know that the real enemy is the system itself, in this instance a system that is ruinous to black people.
I understand that's the message the alternate ending is preaching. And it's true to real life. But to be fair. Within the narrative, that does far-fetched and without any proof why should they believe him?
Just saw it, so a little late. I wanted to comment, cause I think you missed mentioning a good point that shows the great writing of the movie. Earlier in the discussion you talked about the the white girlfriend defending the ID issue with the cop. At first, everything that you were saying was correct. What makes the writing great, was in retrospect, that she wasn't concerned about police racism, but tat she did not want the police to know his name, so when he ends up missing the police couldn't put two and two together.
I am white. I am a male. And I am fourteen years old. This movie was fucking phenomenal. This movie was great storytelling. I don't think it's racist at all, if people on Fox News are complaining about this then they need to shut the Fuck up. It's fiction, it's dark comedy/horror, if it made you feel uncomfortable then that's great! That's the point! This is a must watch if you're into the horror genre!
I went into this movie wondering about the part Korey was criticizing, about the villain leaving something out in the open. When I saw what he was referring to, I realized why it makes sense. *Spoilers* She leaves the box of pictures somewhat where they could be found, because, at that point, she doesn't care anymore! She knows he's not leaving the house, so it's almost like, go ahead, find out the truth if you want, it's over for you one way or the other. Plus, later on, you see all those pictures framed behind her, while she's eating cheerios. It made her character that much more cold and scary. Of course, it was mainly done to give the audience the big reveal in a more heart-breaking way -- she's done this many times before, with other black men, and what better way to hammer that home emotionally then by finding those pictures.
DUDE IKR? I tell all my friends about double toasted now but i dont think they've caught on yet.

Living in a 95% white neighborhood for 4 years use definitely make me think about all the different fucked up things that y'all were talking about. Like what if the whole community just snatched us up or some crazy shit like that. This movie should hit home lol
I saw this tonight. Jordan Peele just earned himself a free pass. I will now go out and see whatever movie he makes next. Get Out was expertly crafted, with an immense appreciation and understanding of the genre. Not a single bad performance in the entire film. Fantastic writing, fantastic directing, fantastic cinematography. I concur with the Double Toasted crew, this is a must-see.
It was mostly white people watching in the theater I was at. When the awkward racial moments happened the white guys laughed the hardest I'm like he having more fun than iam with this. Lol
That's what I been saying about the Spill Crew for over 20 years but in a way I'm glad they aren't mainstream ..they obviously make enough to keep the lights on and make a living and while i tell everybody i can about them and look at the subscriber count and think what u were thinking sometimes, overall i think i rather them stay more underground
CrystalJupiter Jordan peele's skits he writes on key and peele are always the creepy dark ones. He's done jokey horror stuff on that show a bunch. I can totally see him doing a horror flick
5 months ago when you watched the trailer: "Man, this is gonna be some ol' bullshit!" Now: "It's better than sex." Isn't it kinda amazing how a trailer can make you think a movie's going to be shitty, but after watching it you realize it's actually just a really good movie?
You can speculate, but you'll never know until you see the film. Especially with horror films. Some nice surprises, but more often than not failing to deliver the thrills promised in the trailer.
I do think the premise is a tad more universal than you all say with the "Guess Who's Coming for Dinner" setup. It's definitely more prevalent with inter-racial relationships, but I've seen and experienced it with religious and different country perspectives. Even as a white guy, my toes were curling and I was just shaking at how unbelievably tense the movie was. Incredible film. 10 out of 10 all the way. Scariest movie theater experience I've had in years.
Also this movie is a TRUE "horror comedy" - for the most part, horror comedies aren't even really horror. They are just comedies with lots of gore it seems like. This movie was the PERFECT blend of comedy and horror. The funny parts were funny, and the horror was kept separate, and was legit scary. Loved it.
This movie scared me so much when I first watched it... It wasn't so much the tension of knowing "something is wrong" and not knowing "what" exactly. It was more of a social fear, the constant awkwardness of knowing "these people don't understand me" and not knowing if they secretly hate you or if it's just ignorance or morbid curiosity for you... Not knowing how they truly see you... The fear of social alienation. Put simply, I felt constantly uncomfortable and disgusted and emotionally unsafe during the first half of the story (before the mystery starts revealing)... To me, the events before the murderous part were more difficult to watch than the rest of the movie. I thought that was very well portrayed, the way you feel when you don't fit in and are seen as "different" in a community that is friendly to each other but sees you as an spectacle or as the strange one... And also the casual sexual harassment or fetishizing, that feeling is familiar too. Made me squirm. The tone deafness of people being so unaware of how they were making him uncomfortable... Ugh The mother scared me the most, because you could tell she could "see through him", that she was good at reading people. She also always seemed so composed and in control, with her politeness and fake warmth, and very subtly patronizing tone... Then she would make commands with such strict calmness and authority. /chills/ The way the mother and girlfriend were weaponizing his unresolved grief about Chris's mother, that was the most horrible despicable thing for me. Breaks my heart. Makes me angry even to think about it too. And how the girlfriend was picking a new target on her computer, as if it was some type of competitive sport, like shopping accesories online... With the victims pictures displayed right above her bed like trophies... /goosebumps/ And how she kept trying to manipulate him until the last moment, even when he was trying to choke her... There's a special place on /hell/ for people like her. The murderous part was actually kinda cathartic to watch, every time he fought back and defended himself, I felt no satisfaction but /relief/... I wanted him to make it out, to be safe, you know? To be honest, I was expecting an unhappy ending, but I'm not complaining. The idea of your consciousness still being trapped in your body that is being occupied by another person, that certainly is terrifying and really sad... But it was also a little unbelievable to me, kinda made it difficult for me to suspend my disbelief, it was distracting.
Daniel Kaluuya was given the lead role on the spot after nailing his audition. Writer, co-producer, and director Jordan Peele said Kaluuya did about five takes of a key scene, in which his character needs to cry, and each was so perfect that the single tear came down at the exact same time for each take. When writer, co-producer, and director Jordan Peele was asked if Universal Pictures requested a sequel to this film, he stated, "Of course they have. It was the first thing they said: 'Let's do a sequel.'" He goes on to say, "Honestly, I'm open to it... but I won't do a sequel just for some kind of cash grab. If it's right, if it feels good, and I feel like I can beat the original, I'll do it." Lil Rel Howery stated that real-life TSA agents constantly recognize him since the film's release. Jordan Peele said the title is also a reference to what he often hears black audiences shout at the screen while watching horror films: Yelling at a character to "Get out!" In this movie Rod and Andre both say it to Chris. Due to the success of this film, Jordan Peele became the first African-American film writer, producer, and director to write, produce and direct a film debut that earned more than $200 million in non-inflation adjusted world wide box office ticket sales. When writing the screenplay, Jordan Peele took a lot of inspiration in style and tone from the British TV series Psychoville (2009). Which starred his leading man, Daniel Kaluuya. The opening of the film is partially inspired by the opening of Halloween (1978), which Jordan Peele described as a subversion of "the perfect white neighborhood." The main theme, "Sikiliza Kwa Wahenga", was sung in Swahili with the exception of the English word "brother", a word which composer Michael Abels felt had a special, universal meaning among black people that did not need translation. According to Abels, the voices in the song represent the souls of black slaves and lynching victims trying to warn Chris to get away. The translation of the lyrics is, "Brother, run! Listen to the elders. Listen to the truth. Run away! Save yourself." Director Jordan Peele asserted that the scene where Walter (Marcus Henderson) is running at Chris (Daniel Kaluuya) and the audience at full speed is a nod toward the power of depth in films. He cited North by Northwest (1959) as an example of this technique, stating, "Somebody running at you or towards you just creates a visceral and physical reaction for the audience." When Jordan Peele was writing the scene where Chris is under hypnosis the first time, he ended up crying. He states, "There was a point in the process where I got to something that was very vulnerable. The fun evolved into tears. I mean, when I was writing about Chris in the hypnosis and The Sunken Place, I ended that day crying, and it was a cathartic thing. I wouldn't describe it as fun Jordan Peele made the sound when the deer gets hit by the car. Known mainly for his comedic career, writer, co-producer, and director Jordan Peele's turn for the horror genre had surprised many people. He proclaimed, "The reason I made it a horror film is that it's my favorite genre." He went on to state, "I actually started wanting to make a horror thriller, and in asking myself what that would look like, eventually I got to what 'Get Out' is, which is, in many ways, my greatest fears on film." Director Jordan Peele said after he won the Oscar for Best Original Screenplay that he wrote more than 200 drafts for the film before coming up with the script that was used for the final production. This is the sixth horror film nominated for the Academy Award for Best Picture, after The Exorcist (1973), Jaws (1975), The Silence of the Lambs (1991), The Sixth Sense (1999), and Black Swan (2010). Of these six, only The Silence of the Lambs has won. Eddie Murphy was originally chosen to play Chris, but Jordan Peele changed his mind after it was decided he was too old for the role. Regarding the meaning of The Sunken Place, Jordan Peele said, "The Sunken Place means we're marginalized. No matter how hard we scream, the system silences us." Jordan Peele was the fourth black writer to be nominated for an Oscar for Best Original Screenplay. The previous nominees were: * Suzanne De Passe - Lady Sings the Blues (1972) * Spike Lee - Do the Right Thing (1989) * John Singleton - Boyz n the Hood (1991) Peele was the first to win. Jordan Peele cited Night of the Living Dead (1968) as an inspiration for making this his feature film writing and directing debut, because the film had an African-American protagonist. Jordan Peele has stated, "I wrote 'Get Out' not necessarily as something to get made. I wrote it more as something that would be fun to write and something that would help me get better as an artist. So there was no deadline I was giving myself. Now that I know that this kind of movie works, I can give it more purpose. Like, I know that I can get it made, so let's move forward with that goal in mind, instead of it being this ongoing project that who know if anyone will ever see it." The stark black and white cinematic poster showing a cropped close-up of the protagonist's eyes is an inverted reference to the poster of La haine (1995). Both films offer contemporary examinations of cultural appropriation, marginalization, and racism. Despite winning the Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay, much of the film was improvised. Following the continuing success of this film, Jordan Peele proclaims that he's retiring from acting to focus on directing. He jokes, "Acting is just nowhere near as fun for me as directing." Jordan Peele's feature film directorial debut Jordan Peele stated that he never thought that this film would be made, and had written the script while in a state of vulnerability. Jordan Peele cited horror classics like Night of the Living Dead (1968), Rosemary's Baby (1968), and The Stepford Wives (1975) as inspirations for creating this film. Daniel Kaluuya stated that after he returned home in London, England after the release of the film, a random black woman recognized him one day and hugged him. With his three nominations at the 2018 Academy Awards, Jordan Peele became the first African American to be nominated for producing, writing and directing in the same year. 2017 became the first year ever that the horror genre had reached $1 billion in ticket sales at the U.S. box office thanks to this film, It (2017), Split (2016), Annabelle: Creation (2017), Jigsaw (2017), It Comes at Night (2017), and Happy Death Day (2017). This film inspired the creation of college courses about the film's racial themes and symbolism. The detective that Rodney visits is named Latoya Peele. Released in the United States on Daniel Kaluuya's 28th birthday. In the scene where Chris is speaking to Jim Hudson at the party, Daniel Kaluuya's British accent can be briefly heard. On his social media accounts, director Jordan Peele has shared and praised the fan art pertaining to this film. Both times the title is said during the film (by Rod and by André), the "Get out" is directed at Chris. Body Count: 7 The film shares similarities with the 1973 horror film The Wicker Man (1973): in both movies, the protagonist is lured into a trap; in both films, the antagonists are members of a cult or cult-like group. One big difference between the two is that in The Wicker Man the protagonist is killed but in Get Out he triumphs and survives.
I remember my friend, who is also black, and I going to watch this for the first time. When the dad mentioned black mold in the basement, we managed to just look at each other at the same time with the “right” look. We knew he meant there was a black person in that basement.
One thing I love and hate happens at 7:30. They have great reviews but they miss the deep subtext of movies often. Rose was keeping Chris off the cop's radar so they wouldn't have any reason to suspect that he was missing.
Above Beyond - I've got a criticism of this movie and I would like to hear opinions on whether I gave a valid point or not. *Spoilers*!!>> I think that by Chris turning into a killer at the end the sympathy that I felt for his character wasn't erased, but diminished. I feel that white audiences have certain prejudices when it comes to non-white people and by turning Chris into a killer that it plays on those prejudices. I would have liked for Chris to have just been a pure victim to the end and maybe have someone like his friend Rod (LilRel) be the violent savior at the end. In doing so, I feel that my sympathy would have been greater for his character and reprehensible acts of his offenders more disheartening. Thoughts?
Best horror movie in years. A Quiet Place is almost as good, but I would say Get Out is the best in 20 years. Maybe longer. And, the humor in this movie works as well.
Double toasted, as soon as someone says Better Than Sex I see the movie. Jeremy Jahns Awesometacular see the movie. The second that there is a high rating I see the movie. Lmfao
I personally think this film doesn't work internationally because interracial relationships are not as taboo outside of America. So people outside of American won't relate. In other western cultures black and white of the same social class lived in the same neighbourhoods so that them and us culture isn't really there. But in America there was a greater racial divide and black and white people of the same social class didn't live in the same neighbours and this is what made interracial relationships more taboo in America.
where is here? where the fuck are you from? I am talking about other developed western countries where dating someone of a different race isn't seen strange enough to be a plot device.
not true. I am from western europe and i can tell you that white parents don't like their kids dating interracially any more than the ones in America. I know a girl who's been disowned by her father for dating a black guy. it's actually pretty common - no matter the social class
Latin America is probably the only region that historically treated black people as bad as the USA. Black people in the Latin America are treated as second class citizens but even in such openly prejudice societies of South America there are a lot more mixed people than America. But I was talking about western developed countries. Like the UK, France, Germany, Australia and so on who don't have the hang ups about interracial dating that the USA still has, where it is deemed a notable plot device in movies.
Which country? You have all these people saying interracial relationships are just as taboo as America, but they never mention what country. I wonder why? Fake? I am not saying there are no racist people in Western Europe, I am saying Western European societies see as nothing strange, which is why it is more common there and the media doesn't represent it as strange like the American media does.
Split was my top favorite horror movie. However, now Get Out is my top favorite. However were it me, I would have grabbed my bag and hitched back home after that incident (which took place before the appearance of the policeman) on the highway.
I agree, it seemed artificial when Chris found the photos in that room. And it was unnecessary. You could have everything following exactly the same, she fishes in the bag for the keys, and at first maybe you don't suspect, but as she keeps looking for them and looking for them it becomes more and more obvious what's up, until she says "You know I can't give you the keys, right, babe?" That would have been all the stronger if they hadn't given it away beforehand. Then later we'd see the photos in her room of all the people she'd gotten.
I have been approached by so many old white women. A lot of them say oh what a handsome man and some other things. And some say oh I dated a black man, but my parents didn't allow me to. I'm just a little 7 year old like...ok
The trailer grabbed me from the first time I saw it. It's a really good trailer that grabs your attention and makes you want to see what else is in there. There's a bunch of crazy, fucked up concepts on display...and fucking with people's mind in such a matter of fact way as was portrayed in the trailer is really scary to me. Glad to see it's as effective as it looked from the trailer. Looking forward to it coming to the UK.
@1:40 ...... Damn, I hate to say it, but I'm with you on that, Korey! Also, it was killing me I didn't know where the girlfriend was from, but yes, it WAS Girls! .. What, it's really not bad. @10:40 Damn Martin, I was thinking Wicker Man too! An amazing movie.
during the first jump scare, some dude was sitting with his feet on the chair in front of him and he legit jumped back, straightened himself, and left the stadium for five minutes lmao
i loved the movie but my one gripe was the scene at the police station... i just didnt think it was a completely believeable reaction. It felt like it would belong more in an episode of the simpsons or brooklyn nine nine
after watching the film a second time i understand the importance of the scene a little better .... for the ending to work it had to be there. Also maybe a subtle metaphor on how black people don't wanna help each other.
So, "Get Out" is basically a horror-comedy version of Stanley Kramer's "Guess Who's Coming to Dinner"? I don't know enough about Mr Peele to judge his directing or writing talents, but I'd rather watch Kramer's movie about interracial relationships instead, along with "The Defiant Ones". The problem that I have with this film is that it provokes audiences to be even more sensitive about race, instead of encouraging the audience to be more open-minded (look below and count how many comments are "every white chick and her parents are racist!" and "America is 100% racist" and "humanity sucks!"). Whereas the works of Stanley Kramer, or writers like Langston Hughes or W.E. DuBois, impress upon audiences the idea of treating all cultures with equal respect and dignity, because it's deeds that sets us apart, and in a profit-driven class-based system, every worker is reduced to a wage slave and every capitalist exploits nature and human weakness. Maybe Jordan Peele wanted to send the same message, but it seems to have backfired with a lot of audience members :/
Chrissy Wager Next are you gonna tell us that we shouldn't watch Ouija cuz it'll make us scared of Ouija boards, or Jaws cuz it'll make us scared of sharks? The point is that it takes the situation and escalates it into what we most fear the situation could turn into. Same as all other horror movies. This one just happens to be about race rather than board games or dead people. Like they said, it's using black fear rather than fear of the dark or claustrophobia. It's also satire, meant to draw attention to the problems with race relations. If it causes people to be more divided, it's a division between the people who won't admit there's a problem, and the people who do. If pointing out a problem seems to you to cause divisiveness, then there's an issue with your perception, not with the work that's pointing out the problem. You have to draw attention to a problem in order to solve it. Maybe the clearer division could be a good thing. It could show people that there _is_ a problem with race relations, and that we can't all just hold hands and sing "Kumbayah" to fix it. Either way, the movie is not meant to have a message of "let's all join hands and preach togetherness". It's meant to make the problem more evident so that it can be solved. And no, it can't be solved by ignoring it.
Mike, TheAnimated curious hun are u white or black? And by the way thank u for thinking we are beautiful. And u can prefer whatever race u want why would anybody question it.
Even though I'm not gonna see the movie, this movie is coming out at the PERFECT time. Rotten Tomatoes gave it a full 100%. I wish Jordan Peele well on this movie and his future projects.
I'm using cpu speakers and I hear it. Sounds like a pipe leaking or construction drilling outside or something. At first I though it was purposefully built into the soundscape for creepy effect. who knows.
Can anybody tell me on the double toasted site if I signed up as a subscriber, do I get to see video versions like these of the full unedited shows? I looked on the website and couldnt seem to find that info out...

He also handles comedic relief really well. Should be expected with a funny guy like Peele.

I thought that was very well portrayed, the way you feel when you don't fit in and are seen as "different" in a community that is friendly to each other but sees you as an spectacle or as the strange one... And also the casual sexual harassment or fetishizing, that feeling is familiar too. Made me squirm. The tone deafness of people being so unaware of how they were making him uncomfortable... Ugh
The mother scared me the most, because you could tell she could "see through him", that she was good at reading people. She also always seemed so composed and in control, with her politeness and fake warmth, and very subtly patronizing tone... Then she would make commands with such strict calmness and authority. /chills/ The way the mother and girlfriend were weaponizing his unresolved grief about Chris's mother, that was the most horrible despicable thing for me. Breaks my heart. Makes me angry even to think about it too. And how the girlfriend was picking a new target on her computer, as if it was some type of competitive sport, like shopping accesories online... With the victims pictures displayed right above her bed like trophies... /goosebumps/ And how she kept trying to manipulate him until the last moment, even when he was trying to choke her... There's a special place on /hell/ for people like her.
The murderous part was actually kinda cathartic to watch, every time he fought back and defended himself, I felt no satisfaction but /relief/... I wanted him to make it out, to be safe, you know? To be honest, I was expecting an unhappy ending, but I'm not complaining.
The idea of your consciousness still being trapped in your body that is being occupied by another person, that certainly is terrifying and really sad... But it was also a little unbelievable to me, kinda made it difficult for me to suspend my disbelief, it was distracting.
Daniel Kaluuya was given the lead role on the spot after nailing his audition. Writer, co-producer, and director Jordan Peele said Kaluuya did about five takes of a key scene, in which his character needs to cry, and each was so perfect that the single tear came down at the exact same time for each take.
When writer, co-producer, and director Jordan Peele was asked if Universal Pictures requested a sequel to this film, he stated, "Of course they have. It was the first thing they said: 'Let's do a sequel.'" He goes on to say, "Honestly, I'm open to it... but I won't do a sequel just for some kind of cash grab. If it's right, if it feels good, and I feel like I can beat the original, I'll do it."
Lil Rel Howery stated that real-life TSA agents constantly recognize him since the film's release.
Jordan Peele said the title is also a reference to what he often hears black audiences shout at the screen while watching horror films: Yelling at a character to "Get out!" In this movie Rod and Andre both say it to Chris.
Due to the success of this film, Jordan Peele became the first African-American film writer, producer, and director to write, produce and direct a film debut that earned more than $200 million in non-inflation adjusted world wide box office ticket sales.
When writing the screenplay, Jordan Peele took a lot of inspiration in style and tone from the British TV series Psychoville (2009). Which starred his leading man, Daniel Kaluuya.
The opening of the film is partially inspired by the opening of Halloween (1978), which Jordan Peele described as a subversion of "the perfect white neighborhood."
The main theme, "Sikiliza Kwa Wahenga", was sung in Swahili with the exception of the English word "brother", a word which composer Michael Abels felt had a special, universal meaning among black people that did not need translation. According to Abels, the voices in the song represent the souls of black slaves and lynching victims trying to warn Chris to get away. The translation of the lyrics is, "Brother, run! Listen to the elders. Listen to the truth. Run away! Save yourself."
Director Jordan Peele asserted that the scene where Walter (Marcus Henderson) is running at Chris (Daniel Kaluuya) and the audience at full speed is a nod toward the power of depth in films. He cited North by Northwest (1959) as an example of this technique, stating, "Somebody running at you or towards you just creates a visceral and physical reaction for the audience."
When Jordan Peele was writing the scene where Chris is under hypnosis the first time, he ended up crying. He states, "There was a point in the process where I got to something that was very vulnerable. The fun evolved into tears. I mean, when I was writing about Chris in the hypnosis and The Sunken Place, I ended that day crying, and it was a cathartic thing. I wouldn't describe it as fun
Jordan Peele made the sound when the deer gets hit by the car.
Known mainly for his comedic career, writer, co-producer, and director Jordan Peele's turn for the horror genre had surprised many people. He proclaimed, "The reason I made it a horror film is that it's my favorite genre." He went on to state, "I actually started wanting to make a horror thriller, and in asking myself what that would look like, eventually I got to what 'Get Out' is, which is, in many ways, my greatest fears on film."
Director Jordan Peele said after he won the Oscar for Best Original Screenplay that he wrote more than 200 drafts for the film before coming up with the script that was used for the final production.
This is the sixth horror film nominated for the Academy Award for Best Picture, after The Exorcist (1973), Jaws (1975), The Silence of the Lambs (1991), The Sixth Sense (1999), and Black Swan (2010). Of these six, only The Silence of the Lambs has won.
Eddie Murphy was originally chosen to play Chris, but Jordan Peele changed his mind after it was decided he was too old for the role.
Regarding the meaning of The Sunken Place, Jordan Peele said, "The Sunken Place means we're marginalized. No matter how hard we scream, the system silences us."
Jordan Peele was the fourth black writer to be nominated for an Oscar for Best Original Screenplay. The previous nominees were:
* Suzanne De Passe - Lady Sings the Blues (1972)
* Spike Lee - Do the Right Thing (1989)
* John Singleton - Boyz n the Hood (1991)
Peele was the first to win.
Jordan Peele cited Night of the Living Dead (1968) as an inspiration for making this his feature film writing and directing debut, because the film had an African-American protagonist.
Jordan Peele has stated, "I wrote 'Get Out' not necessarily as something to get made. I wrote it more as something that would be fun to write and something that would help me get better as an artist. So there was no deadline I was giving myself. Now that I know that this kind of movie works, I can give it more purpose. Like, I know that I can get it made, so let's move forward with that goal in mind, instead of it being this ongoing project that who know if anyone will ever see it."
The stark black and white cinematic poster showing a cropped close-up of the protagonist's eyes is an inverted reference to the poster of La haine (1995). Both films offer contemporary examinations of cultural appropriation, marginalization, and racism.
Despite winning the Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay, much of the film was improvised.
Following the continuing success of this film, Jordan Peele proclaims that he's retiring from acting to focus on directing. He jokes, "Acting is just nowhere near as fun for me as directing."
Jordan Peele's feature film directorial debut
Jordan Peele stated that he never thought that this film would be made, and had written the script while in a state of vulnerability.
Jordan Peele cited horror classics like Night of the Living Dead (1968), Rosemary's Baby (1968), and The Stepford Wives (1975) as inspirations for creating this film.
Daniel Kaluuya stated that after he returned home in London, England after the release of the film, a random black woman recognized him one day and hugged him.
With his three nominations at the 2018 Academy Awards, Jordan Peele became the first African American to be nominated for producing, writing and directing in the same year.
2017 became the first year ever that the horror genre had reached $1 billion in ticket sales at the U.S. box office thanks to this film, It (2017), Split (2016), Annabelle: Creation (2017), Jigsaw (2017), It Comes at Night (2017), and Happy Death Day (2017).
This film inspired the creation of college courses about the film's racial themes and symbolism.
The detective that Rodney visits is named Latoya Peele.
Released in the United States on Daniel Kaluuya's 28th birthday.
In the scene where Chris is speaking to Jim Hudson at the party, Daniel Kaluuya's British accent can be briefly heard.
On his social media accounts, director Jordan Peele has shared and praised the fan art pertaining to this film.
Both times the title is said during the film (by Rod and by André), the "Get out" is directed at Chris.
Body Count: 7
The film shares similarities with the 1973 horror film The Wicker Man (1973): in both movies, the protagonist is lured into a trap; in both films, the antagonists are members of a cult or cult-like group. One big difference between the two is that in The Wicker Man the protagonist is killed but in Get Out he triumphs and survives.
Well I'll give you the first like. Informative comment. Thanks. This was a really good move imo.
27:17 That Martin's laugh killed me lmao
I remember my friend, who is also black, and I going to watch this for the first time. When the dad mentioned black mold in the basement, we managed to just look at each other at the same time with the “right” look. We knew he meant there was a black person in that basement.
Rose didn't leave the pictures...Georgina did.
Oh snap! That makes sense.
Looking forward to the dank ass memes to come from this flick.
Slash congrats my dude Girts!
Best movie reviewers on youtube!
Rajiv Bassi fuck yeah !
I knew from the trailer this movie would be good. Jordan Peele is officially the new master of horror.
One thing I love and hate happens at 7:30. They have great reviews but they miss the deep subtext of movies often. Rose was keeping Chris off the cop's radar so they wouldn't have any reason to suspect that he was missing.
Funny because the cop was actually trying to help at the beginning lol
I’m late but how?
@@ShyCashual to know where his last location was so they could find him
this has to be the funniest and arguably the most entertaining movie review people on TH-cam. i've never laughed so much in a review LMFAO
Do a spoiler review
"Black Fear"
hopefully the comment section wont go to shit posting, like every other channel that reviewed this.. *grabs popcorn*
It aint and it's starting to piss me off. I want my race war god damn it.
Aten Akehnaton I'm surprised, lol.
Aten Akehnaton Troll much
We toasties are all about peace, dude. The white ass unites us.
Above Beyond - I've got a criticism of this movie and I would like to hear opinions on whether I gave a valid point or not. *Spoilers*!!>> I think that by Chris turning into a killer at the end the sympathy that I felt for his character wasn't erased, but diminished. I feel that white audiences have certain prejudices when it comes to non-white people and by turning Chris into a killer that it plays on those prejudices. I would have liked for Chris to have just been a pure victim to the end and maybe have someone like his friend Rod (LilRel) be the violent savior at the end. In doing so, I feel that my sympathy would have been greater for his character and reprehensible acts of his offenders more disheartening. Thoughts?
the Moral of this story is Dont Smoke
I think the moral of the story is more "Don't stick your dick in crazy." or "Bring your best friend with you as backup."
@@weirdguy1495 I was joking
@@sheercold26 As was I.
Finally found my dudes from spill. Right on!!!
Best horror movie in years. A Quiet Place is almost as good, but I would say Get Out is the best in 20 years. Maybe longer. And, the humor in this movie works as well.
Double toasted, as soon as someone says Better Than Sex I see the movie. Jeremy Jahns Awesometacular see the movie. The second that there is a high rating I see the movie. Lmfao
And Chris Stuckmann A+
man fuck Chris Stuckmann
When Redlettermedia give a movie a glowing review, it's time to see it.
Would love to see Jordan Peele on a Double Toasted video.
Wow I just figured out that you guys were Spill from back in the day. Good to see that you guys are still making good content, thank you.
I personally think this film doesn't work internationally because interracial relationships are not as taboo outside of America. So people outside of American won't relate. In other western cultures black and white of the same social class lived in the same neighbourhoods so that them and us culture isn't really there. But in America there was a greater racial divide and black and white people of the same social class didn't live in the same neighbours and this is what made interracial relationships more taboo in America.
Delboy0 Latin America off top. lol It's like worst there than here
where is here? where the fuck are you from? I am talking about other developed western countries where dating someone of a different race isn't seen strange enough to be a plot device.
not true. I am from western europe and i can tell you that white parents don't like their kids dating interracially any more than the ones in America. I know a girl who's been disowned by her father for dating a black guy. it's actually pretty common - no matter the social class
Latin America is probably the only region that historically treated black people as bad as the USA. Black people in the Latin America are treated as second class citizens but even in such openly prejudice societies of South America there are a lot more mixed people than America. But I was talking about western developed countries. Like the UK, France, Germany, Australia and so on who don't have the hang ups about interracial dating that the USA still has, where it is deemed a notable plot device in movies.
Which country? You have all these people saying interracial relationships are just as taboo as America, but they never mention what country. I wonder why? Fake? I am not saying there are no racist people in Western Europe, I am saying Western European societies see as nothing strange, which is why it is more common there and the media doesn't represent it as strange like the American media does.
Did Korey put his Gamecube back to work yet? Because Gamefly's giving him an excuse to do that!
Henry Soto It's stuff like this that makes me love this channel even more!
Binging these during the pandemic! So good and so funny! 🤣❤️
The reaction to the trailer vs the review will always be my 2 favorite videos
im not afraid to see this movie because of the social comentary, im just a pussy when it comes to horror films
It's not that scary... The movie is more of a psychological Thriller than a horror film
Sman MMO yeah, it's not super scary, but the 3rd act is really intense
did you see it? i did last night. if not, you'll be fine. it's more of a suspense thing as mentioned.
It's more frustrating and uncomfortable than scary. I have never felt that anxious in a movie theater.
I just now realized that the family has the same name as one of the families from Arkham in the Lovecraft mythos.
I felt same way Martin felt...I want to see again in the hood movie theater
I love this set up. SUBSCRIBED IMMEDIATELY!!!
Split was my top favorite horror movie. However, now Get Out is my top favorite. However were it me, I would have grabbed my bag and hitched back home after that incident (which took place before the appearance of the policeman) on the highway.
I have no problem with interracial dating, but it's weird how many black men seem to be obsessed with or primarily pursue white women.
self hate
JoJoFan4life Or just preference
***** I know it's not as many as some think, but there are quite a few that seem to have this obsession.
+The Stegman u mean as As a black man you'll fuck EVERY woman. lmao I love ya'll but ya'll the thirstiest men on the planet
JoJoFan4life you goddamn right.
The cop comments Rose made had me like SHUT UP! You going to get him shot!
I love watching your reviews. Don't always agree, but I love the way y'all break it down
I agree, it seemed artificial when Chris found the photos in that room. And it was unnecessary. You could have everything following exactly the same, she fishes in the bag for the keys, and at first maybe you don't suspect, but as she keeps looking for them and looking for them it becomes more and more obvious what's up, until she says "You know I can't give you the keys, right, babe?" That would have been all the stronger if they hadn't given it away beforehand. Then later we'd see the photos in her room of all the people she'd gotten.
I CANNOT wait to see this movie. Like this is the one horror movie since don't breathe that im super excited to see
@5:04 The Curse strikes again! Sean Hannity's co-host, Alan Colmes just died.
This movie had the friggin best and most satisfying 3rd act of a horror movie I've seen in a long time, sooo good.
I can see this ending up on my top ten for the year. I was surprised how much dread I felt from a movie directed by one of my favourite comedians. .
what ever happened to danielle?
She dead
+ Lucky Cobain is she for real?
not funny try later
ap1dot988 same thing that happened to baby Jane
she's usually on one of the show
Film is a masterpiece. Totally agree. Feel like that when I went to Cracked Barrel or travel through the South....man the Klan is...everywhere. 😨
I wasn't gonna see this movie but your review changed my mind
I have been approached by so many old white women. A lot of them say oh what a handsome man and some other things. And some say oh I dated a black man, but my parents didn't allow me to. I'm just a little 7 year old like...ok
Kutlu Mızrak
Lmao @ "uber ultra creepy" 😄, Who talks to a 7 year old about thier non-interacial dating life.
*patrick has been on the channel a long ass time* "NEW MEMBER"
Oh
I just saw it ...man that was trippy!!!! .. gotta agree with your final ratings
The trailer grabbed me from the first time I saw it. It's a really good trailer that grabs your attention and makes you want to see what else is in there. There's a bunch of crazy, fucked up concepts on display...and fucking with people's mind in such a matter of fact way as was portrayed in the trailer is really scary to me. Glad to see it's as effective as it looked from the trailer. Looking forward to it coming to the UK.
This is what Jordan Peele thought when he first started dating Chelsea peretti he had a feeling that he family might have him killed =D
24:30 I was dying of laughter
@1:40 ...... Damn, I hate to say it, but I'm with you on that, Korey!
Also, it was killing me I didn't know where the girlfriend was from, but yes, it WAS Girls! .. What, it's really not bad.
@10:40 Damn Martin, I was thinking Wicker Man too!
An amazing movie.
Love the show....this movie had me saying wtf?....all the way till the end. Good movie and congrats to Jordan Peele for showing his talents
Martin, if you want to see how good Daniel Kaluuya's crying game is, see the Black Mirror "Fifteen Million Credits" episode ;) Great actor.
during the first jump scare, some dude was sitting with his feet on the chair in front of him and he legit jumped back, straightened himself, and left the stadium for five minutes lmao
I followed his directions and saw the movie in the most crowded theater it was a midnight showing!
I honestly just wanted to know if this goes straight up Horror or is just a comedy. Glad to know it is about the horror. Can't wait to see it.
The most bizarre thing is that I tend to fill the role of the token black friend even though Im biracial.
so uh, korey... your gamecube workin yet?
i loved the movie but my one gripe was the scene at the police station... i just didnt think it was a completely believeable reaction. It felt like it would belong more in an episode of the simpsons or brooklyn nine nine
lurkzie I didn't understand that scene either. The detectives seemed hypnotized as well
after watching the film a second time i understand the importance of the scene a little better .... for the ending to work it had to be there. Also maybe a subtle metaphor on how black people don't wanna help each other.
lurkzie It’s social satire.
So, "Get Out" is basically a horror-comedy version of Stanley Kramer's "Guess Who's Coming to Dinner"?
I don't know enough about Mr Peele to judge his directing or writing talents, but I'd rather watch Kramer's movie about interracial relationships instead, along with "The Defiant Ones".
The problem that I have with this film is that it provokes audiences to be even more sensitive about race, instead of encouraging the audience to be more open-minded (look below and count how many comments are "every white chick and her parents are racist!" and "America is 100% racist" and "humanity sucks!"). Whereas the works of Stanley Kramer, or writers like Langston Hughes or W.E. DuBois, impress upon audiences the idea of treating all cultures with equal respect and dignity, because it's deeds that sets us apart, and in a profit-driven class-based system, every worker is reduced to a wage slave and every capitalist exploits nature and human weakness. Maybe Jordan Peele wanted to send the same message, but it seems to have backfired with a lot of audience members :/
Chrissy Wager Next are you gonna tell us that we shouldn't watch Ouija cuz it'll make us scared of Ouija boards, or Jaws cuz it'll make us scared of sharks? The point is that it takes the situation and escalates it into what we most fear the situation could turn into. Same as all other horror movies. This one just happens to be about race rather than board games or dead people. Like they said, it's using black fear rather than fear of the dark or claustrophobia.
It's also satire, meant to draw attention to the problems with race relations. If it causes people to be more divided, it's a division between the people who won't admit there's a problem, and the people who do.
If pointing out a problem seems to you to cause divisiveness, then there's an issue with your perception, not with the work that's pointing out the problem. You have to draw attention to a problem in order to solve it. Maybe the clearer division could be a good thing. It could show people that there _is_ a problem with race relations, and that we can't all just hold hands and sing "Kumbayah" to fix it. Either way, the movie is not meant to have a message of "let's all join hands and preach togetherness". It's meant to make the problem more evident so that it can be solved. And no, it can't be solved by ignoring it.
Oh man, I've been waiting for this review for a loooong time :)
Martin's comment at 26:00 sends me to Split.
Great review as usual guys!
Sorry Korey, give me a black woman anyday.
Why not?
Mike, TheAnimated curious hun are u white or black? And by the way thank u for thinking we are beautiful. And u can prefer whatever race u want why would anybody question it.
Thank you 🙏🏾

Revisiting old reviews. Double toasted has high rewatch value
Get out is one of my favorite movies of all time.
The double toasted movie reviews are the best. Most entertaining and most relatable review team
No lie, this is the best movie of all time and this is my favorite movie of all time.
Black hat to the back is cute. 🤗 Sorry, I don’t know folks names...but I love these podcast. They really be having me laughing hard 😂
The fact this show isn't available in podcast form is a crime.
It actually is! You just have to go to their website; all their reviews and shows are available as long-form audio.
Even though I'm not gonna see the movie, this movie is coming out at the PERFECT time. Rotten Tomatoes gave it a full 100%. I wish Jordan Peele well on this movie and his future projects.

anyone else watching with headphones hear constant tapping sound? it's driving me crazy
Mehkih G nope. just you
I don't have headphones on but i hear it.
I'm using cpu speakers and I hear it. Sounds like a pipe leaking or construction drilling outside or something. At first I though it was purposefully built into the soundscape for creepy effect. who knows.
Mehkih G i thought it was just me, but yeah driving me crazy too
I'm hearing it through my phone
Can anybody tell me on the double toasted site if I signed up as a subscriber, do I get to see video versions like these of the full unedited shows? I looked on the website and couldnt seem to find that info out...
