Jordan Peele tackling Lovecraftian horror, will he succeed /tv/?

>>86987288
The book it's based off on doesn't really do Lovecraftian shit, so I don't expect much in that area

>>86987288
Lame and unfunny like all of the other stuff Hollywood shits out.

>>86987480
Disgusting bigot.

>Lovectaft Country
>Lovecraftian
Do you even know what you're talking about?

Is this a way to "stick it to" a dead man?
Surely everyone knows that Lovecraft was extremely racist and xenophobe.
They'll probably just add tentacles too.

The only Lovecraft I've read is half of that Alan Moore series based off Lovecraft. It has a creepy drug dealer with a lisp who turns into a painting to get away from the cops.

nah, this book was all about racism, it used cthulhu tentacle monsters as a metaphor for white people

not even joking

Don't they know about Lovecraft's opinion on negroes?

>>86988220
That's exactly the point, they're still so butthurt that the second greatest horror writer of the 20th century was a racist that they try to get back at him by reinventing his characters

>>86987288
>black man
>missing father
ummm stereotypes much????

They're doing a Man in the High Castle ripoff with the Confederacy too. I live in a town that hasn't yet been ran over with coloreds so this all feels very forced to me. In the next 10 years it's gonna be nigger central. Not gonna brag though it's not like I got to grow up in a decade that wasn't shit like the 50s or 70s.

DUDE WHITE PEOPLE

Most certainly will end up another race bait movie but let's wait and see.

And fucking dropped. Literally going to be some race bait shit. Everyone knows lovecraft was racist

Black people ruin everything. Logically, this movie was ruined from the start.

Lovecraft was extremely racist. He would have hated this.

Why does Jordan Peele hate Lovecraft?

>>86987480
Disgusting bigot.

Get the fuck out of here, retard.

Jordan Peele would have been a horror to Lovecraft

A fat lipped, big nosed half nigger trying to turn his stories about some bullshit "we iz black we iz da victims"

>be mixed race
>black dad not in your life raised by your white mom
>grow up to hate white people

Really activates your almonds

>>86996235
yeah i don't get this and it seems to be somewhat of a consistent pattern

>>86987288
I'm 100% cool with this as long he gets the general feels of lovecraft right.

I would be disappointed if the lovecraft creep vibe takes a back seat because Peele wants to use the setting has a backdrops to explain US race relations.

In the end, I think it's going to be a balance between the two,

Ah so they are adapting Horror at Red Hook but with a new protag

When, long ago, the gods created Earth
In Jove's fair image Man was shaped at birth.
The beasts for lesser parts were next designed;
Yet were they too remote from humankind.
To fill the gap, and join the rest to Man,
Th'Olympian host conceiv'd a clever plan.
A beast they wrought, in semi-human figure,
Filled it with vice, and called the thing a Nigger.

this post is informative. Why is everyone skipping over it?

>>86987288

>another Peele movie that will get 95%+ on RT because of soft critics afraid of being called racists

Fuck off. Get Out was a mediocre movie that was framed as if it was deep, groundbreaking and engaging. The whole middle of the movie was slow, repetitive racism-porn for SJW's. The only character that I cared about was the TSA agent friend because every other character was a 1D, effortless avatar for what the writer wanted to portray rather than an actual person.

Where's the good content, professional media?

it's trash.

>>86987900
is this real life?

>>86997593
Agreed, Get Out was decent but I really don't understand why it's so highly rated
The only horror and shocking parts of the movie was the protagonist killing the family violently in cold blood

>"Lovecraft Country is a 2016 dark fantasy horror novel by Matt Ruff, exploring the conjunction between the horror fiction of H.P. Lovecraft and racism in the United States during the era of Jim Crow laws, as experienced by black science fiction fan Atticus Turner and his family."

-Lovecraft died in 1937.
-Lovecraft hated niggers.
-"Atticus" is a good name soiled by this clown, most likely a reference to the lawyer Atticus Finch, who was also a white man.
-Jordan Peele is a watered down Chapelle with only salt and no real flavor. He should stick to his lame-ass show.

>>86994252
Edgar Allan Poe maybe?

>>86994252
Robert W chambers for king in yellow alone

Clark Ashton Smith

Wasn't Get Out basically the same thing?

>>86987900
What a hack. Is every movie he makes going to be about hating white people?

This post is a few months late.

We already discussed this and decided it wasn't anything close to being cosmic horror. Just shitty alternate universe fan fiction that capitalizes on the fucked up political climate we're in.

When, long ago, the gods created Earth
In Jove's dark image Man was shaped at birth.
The beasts for lesser parts were next designed;
Yet were they too remote from humankind.
To fill the gap, and join the rest to Man,
Th'Olympian host conceiv'd a clever plan.
A beast they wrought, in semi-human figure,
Filled it with vice, and called the thing a Wh*te.

Finally, a movie that will have zero politics.

Why don't people realize that Get Out is making fun of white liberals who are creepily obsessed with black people, not white people in general?

As a fan of lovecraft's this seriously put a shit in my coffee.

When his father Montrose goes missing, 22-year-old Army veteran Atticus Turner embarks on a road trip to New England to find him, accompanied by his Uncle George—publisher of The Safe Negro Travel Guide—and his childhood friend Letitia. On their journey to the manor of Mr. Braithwhite—heir to the estate that owned one of Atticus’s ancestors—they encounter both mundane terrors of white America and malevolent spirits that seem straight out of the weird tales George devours.

That's expecting people to have seen Get Out. The same shit happened with Dear White People, /tv/ gets impossibly triggered by bait-ish titles.
