Priming audiences for a big summer alien invasion film, Peele also delivered a film with a lot on its mind about society&#8217;s relationship to witnessing and capturing violent spectacle, the film industry&#8217;s history of disregard for Black artists, and how we package our own traumas. With a terrific ensemble led by Daniel Kaluuya and Keke Palmer as siblings who discover an unexplainable phenomena in the skies,&nbsp;<em>Nope<\/em>&nbsp;is perhaps 2022&#8217;s biggest head-scratcher among films not recognized by the Academy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This episode, we talk about the 2022 box office dynamic that unfairly tainted&nbsp;<em>Nope<\/em>&nbsp;as a box office disappointment and its many, rich avenues for narrative interpretation. We also talk about Kaluuya&#8217;s underrated performance, Palmer&#8217;s contrasting performance that was campaigned in supporting, and what makes the movie a monster movie vs. an alien movie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Topics also include Gordy going off, Hoyte van Hoytema&#8217;s cinematography, and breakthrough star Jean Jacket.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Follow Us on Twitter!<br><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Had_Oscar_Buzz\">@Had_Oscar_Buzz<\/a><br>Joe: <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/joereid\">@joereid<\/a><br>Chris: <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/chrisvfeil\">@chrisvfeil<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"powerpress_player\" id=\"powerpress_player_365\"><audio class=\"wp-audio-shortcode\" id=\"audio-1080-1\" preload=\"none\" style=\"width: 100%;\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"audio\/mpeg\" src=\"https:\/\/media.blubrry.com\/3563080\/fightinginthewarroom.com\/THOB\/EP\/THOB_EP_279_Nope.mp3?_=1\" \/><a href=\"https:\/\/media.blubrry.com\/3563080\/fightinginthewarroom.com\/THOB\/EP\/THOB_EP_279_Nope.mp3\">https:\/\/media.blubrry.com\/3563080\/fightinginthewarroom.com\/THOB\/EP\/THOB_EP_279_Nope.mp3<\/a><\/audio><\/div><p class=\"powerpress_links powerpress_links_mp3\" style=\"margin-bottom: 1px !important;\">Podcast: <a href=\"https:\/\/media.blubrry.com\/3563080\/fightinginthewarroom.com\/THOB\/EP\/THOB_EP_279_Nope.mp3\" class=\"powerpress_link_pinw\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Play in new window\" onclick=\"return powerpress_pinw('https:\/\/fightinginthewarroom.com\/THOB\/?powerpress_pinw=1080-podcast');\" rel=\"nofollow\">Play in new window<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/media.blubrry.com\/3563080\/fightinginthewarroom.com\/THOB\/EP\/THOB_EP_279_Nope.mp3\" class=\"powerpress_link_d\" title=\"Download\" rel=\"nofollow\" download=\"THOB_EP_279_Nope.mp3\">Download<\/a><\/p><p class=\"powerpress_links powerpress_subscribe_links\">Subscribe: <a href=\"https:\/\/fightinginthewarroom.com\/THOB\/feed\/podcast\/\" class=\"powerpress_link_subscribe powerpress_link_subscribe_rss\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Subscribe via RSS\" rel=\"nofollow\">RSS<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With another Oscar ceremony coming to a close, it&#8217;s time to crack the seal on the Class of 2022 movies and we couldn&#8217;t wait to talk about Jordan Peele&#8217;s&nbsp;Nope!
