That's fine, it's not like it's going to win.

Is Jordan Peele a jew? Because you kniw he timed it perfectly

moonlight won

>all black movies are the same

OH MY GOD user YOU JUST OPENED MY EYES LITERALLY NOBODY HAS MENTIONED THIS BEFORE WHERE DO YOU GET THIS INGENUITY FROM

well, aren't they?

Honestly no.

No, but his sister's husband is the jew who created buzzfeed.

Get Out was entertaining.

Moonlight was also Oscar worthy

This was easily better than Shape of Water which got 13 noms.

The execution of that sunken place scene was amazing. Fucking psychedelic trippy shit out of nowhere.

>better
In which aspect of filmmaking?

Yeah if you've never seen the far better version, Guess Who's Coming to Dinner

plot, visuals, acting

People are so desperate to call Get Out derivative I swear

Haven’t seen SoW yet, but get out has absolute shit plot, visuals and acting

Obviously.

What the fuck are you talking about?

It was just a dude falling in a hole. It was like the scene from Trainspotting but not interesting.

Obviously. Fucking white liberals pandering to all the whiny niggers in the film industry who can't succeed on their own merits. And GET OUT is a prime example of this mentality because it's a shit movie that no one would even know about except for the fact that it has niggers in its cast which makes it oh so "political" and "important." All u liberals make me sick.

Yes but it wasn’t bad so I’ll allow it.

It's a fucking rip off of a 1970s psychological horror movie called "The Wicker Man." Same movie with different set dressing. It's not derivative, it's a direct fucking rip off.

>monkeys ooking and bookng on Twitter constitutes a controversy in this day and age
Teaching them to talk and ESPECIALLY to read was a mistake.

My favorite movie of 2017.

Shape of Water has a surprise musical scene from a mute girl and she fucks a fish monster (and no one seems to mind?)

This is a good post, I was about to rage

It's not rape if the fish monster isn't white! And that's a good thing!

Seeing a movie get an Oscar nomination convinced me that Sup Forums is right and I need to post frogs on Sup Forums to collectivize the white race to drive out Jews from the media and government and then band together with my fellow whites to expel subhumans from the white man's God-given ethnostate, the US.

It is highly derivative.

I mean, it's a horror movie. Most are.

No it's not. I am not great fan of Get Out but it didn't steal anything from the Wicker Man really. The Wicker Man is of course the superior movie but that is neither here nor there.

What do you think it ripped off?

t. brainlet

Yes Moonlight is exactly the same as Scary Movie you fuckin moron

you got all that from me taking issue with the fact that academy's choices are motivated by identity politics and not by artistic merit? you could be against this regardless of your political leanings.

libs do hype up black things simply because they're black, but Get Out is a quality film regardless. If you don't want to be like libs, you should judge things on their own merits, rather than reacting to what triggers you.

You're right, that was unfair of me.

Sure, but it's not just "the stepford wives" or "guess who's coming to dinner"
People here claim its basically a direct rip off, which it's not. black things still cause butthurt I guess

Based logic poster

> being retarded to own the libs

it's not rape at all, he kinda grabs at her and then she leaves. then she gets up in the middle of the night, comes back in the bathroom, strips and rides fishman until the dawn

I thought it was more like The Stepford Wives. But instead of taking women to a resort to turn them into perfect wives they take Basketball Americans to make them civilized.

lol

>visual references and similarities to another work make the referencing work bad
>b-because it's a ripoff

It doesn't make it wrong. It's to illustrate that it's not special or unique. Not like Moonlight had any merits to begin with.

But is Get Out not unique? If only in a shallow way?

>horror
Birth is a far superior horror film without beating the audience over the head with it. The audience want thrills, the audience wants entertainment, the audience wants cinema. Griffith is anti-cinema.

WHAT are you quoting

This is diminishing Kar-wai if you think any of those shots or the story/characters in moonlight are somehow derivative of his work. You could make an argument for the final shot, but everything else is just reaching, especially shit like the phone scenes and the smoke break.

neck yourself boy.

This nigger Jordan Peele is only capable of doing 2 different shots, isn't he?

>everything else is just reaching
Oops!!
>Films by Wong Kar-Wai were a big influence on Barry Jenkins and the production of the film, particularly the film Happy Together (1997) which also features a gay couple as the main characters, just like this film.

When you expand you become obvious (I can predict everything being said and delivered in Napoleon and Arc without even having to look at them), when you abstract you LOSE your thesis. You must become Stroheim, Griffith, Flaherty, and Eisenstein. You must RETRACT AND INHIBIT NOT EXPAND. YOU HAVE NOW REFLECTED LAYERED REALITY THAT HAS THE ANSWERS TO ALL PHILOSOPHICAL QUANDRIES. IT IS TO CREATE MULTI-FACETED LANGUAGE. IT IS WHAT JAMES JOYCE STOLE FROM THIS GREATS! THE IRISH NIGGER! JUST LIKE FORD!

this but unironically

>Yo wipipo stilin muh homiez
>hol up lemme call my cop friends and we gonna laugh together
Yeah, smart and contemporary piece of cinema. Cotton earplugs and flash that deactivates mind control are work of genius too. This trash can be at least ok if you consider it as a stupid explotation flick.

>influence
>inspiration
woah it's almost as if every piece of art ever takes inspiration from already existing art. fucking retard.

Dumdum. Did Griffith make blatant homages?

Griffith sculpted an entire medium with his bare hands like clay. It's a constant perpetuated myth that Griffith is "classical continuity" or is a "basic pioneer". He certainly influenced classical continuity, but only because he was so beyond his peers that they only gleamed his superficialities (see: Ford). Griffith's works are the most complex of any known medium. They are not film because no one within that medium has replicated or advanced his metaphysical dialectic in any known quality

Note that even if you believe it's a genuinely great film, you still have to consider this as a reason for why it might be in there. Even the director will have cause to wonder if he really is that good or if he's merely a fetish for the white liberals he is staring at while he holds the little golden man.

not an argument

If you can't read reality, how do you ever hope to read photorepresentation?

This.
I do think it was great but the nominations, specifically best picture feels like an ironically token gesture from the academy.
They're really damned if they do damned if they don't, people justify outrage for every decision of that caliber.

No it wasn't, even by the low standards the Oscars have held this decade it was undeserving. It was lifetime movie-tier.

"""dialectical""" would be the proper adjective form

It was more likely nominated for ratings. It was a very high-grossing film but it also had the critical acclaim so that they could nominate it without lowering their standards too much.

Get Out was pretty well made actually. Definitely not deserving of a win though. I have a tough time even thinking about what else could've taken it's place except maybe BR2049, which lets be honest only deserves any Oscars for visuals. This season was crappy for movies.

Also Moonlight was garbage. This was better.

You know what i would like to see.
The White Reverse of this movie.

>except maybe BR2049, which lets be honest only deserves any Oscars for visuals
Are you implying 2049 is worse than any of the films nominated, including The Post and Lady Bird?

You have to actually understand the source material to spoof it, user

Nah, I haven't seen those two but BR2049 is probably better. It was just a weak year overall.
