Josh and New Mexico Drew are closing spooky season by diving deep into Jordan Peele’s 2017 directorial debut, Get Out.
The guys discuss their first-time watches versus their recent rewatch, why comedians make great horror directors, and the standout scenes that make the film a modern classic. They also debate the film’s one glaring imperfection (hint: it involves camera gear) and revisit the stacked 2017 Oscar race.
Episode Guide & Timestamps
[00:00:18] Intro & Eric’s Whereabouts: JP and NMD take over the pod while Eric is on an anniversary trip in LA.
[00:08:30] Main Topic: Get Out: The hosts reveal they are discussing Get Out after Eric “bullied” JP into a rewatch.
[00:08:50] First Watch vs. Rewatch: NMD shares his first experience watching the movie on a laptop with a newborn . JP admits he initially gave the film four stars but now considers it near-perfect.
[00:16:53] Tangent: Ethan Hawke Hot Take: NMD confesses he used to be a “giant Ethan Hawke hater” but has since come around.
[00:21:10] Analysis: Jordan Peele as Director: NMD argues that comedy and horror share the same formula (setup, tension, payoff) and that comedians’ sense of timing makes them great horror directors. JP compares Peele to Adam McKay (Anchorman to The Big Short).
[00:27:03] Sound & Score: The hosts praise the film’s sound design (the teaspoon) and the “old school Hitchcock” score.
[00:29:10] Peele’s Industry Impact: The hosts discuss how Get Out (and Peele’s subsequent success) “paved the way” for other Black directors like Ryan Coogler to tackle the horror genre.
[00:35:10] Standout Scenes:
NMD: The quintessential scene is the first hypnosis and the introduction of “the sunken place”.
NMD: The most “burned in my brain” moment is Walter (the grandpa) running full-speed at Chris in the dark.
NMD: The tense conversation with the blind art dealer.
JP: The silent auction “bingo” scene.
[00:43:16] Standout Performances: The hosts praise Daniel Kaluuya, Bradley Whitford (the dad), Allison Williams (Rose), Betty Gabriel (Georgina), and Caleb Landry Jones (the brother).
[00:48:50] Rewatchability: Both hosts agree the film has a “thousand percent” high rewatchability factor.
[00:50:44] The One Big Imperfection: Josh & NMD call out the film’s biggest flaw: Chris, a professional New York photographer, uses a “goddamn kit lens” and a “kit strap”.
