On the first day of Christmas,Indonesia Archives Jordan Peele gave to the world the highly anticipated trailer for Us, his next horror film after the smash success of 2017's Get Out.
On the second day of Christmas, a lot of people on the internet gave to us...a lot of hot takes on what the trailer revealed about the plot, the significance of the music used, what hints as to the movie's inevitable big twist might be, and more.
SEE ALSO: Jordan Peele returns with the terrifying first trailer for 'Us'The thing about everyone going into detective mode on the Ustrailer is that the trailer is intentionally vague, much more so than the first trailer for Get Outwas. Analyzing it to pieces is antithetical to the point of the trailer — like Get Out, its twists and message are going to be better delivered in the film.
This isn't dumping on the concept of trailer analyses in general. Some movies, and some trailers, are intentionally seeded with all of the easter eggs and hints a fan can handle and are designed to be picked apart by the masses. Marvel movies thrive on dropping little connections in split-second trailer moments. Pretty much any sequel is required to do so to please fans looking for the continuity many of them crave.
But with Get Out, and as it likely will be with Us, the level of analysis required to get at what Peele is saying cannot be condensed in a trailer. If the Get Outtrailer had been pored over as closely as Usis, the wrong conclusions about what the movie was saying about the state of race and Black autonomy in America could have been reached and colored audience reception to the film itself.
Peele knows what he's doing. He is more than capable of managing the magic act of revealing and obscuring exactly what he wants to for a maximal effect. This vague trailer is about building anticipation, setting a mood, and planting the idea that "we are our own worst enemy" in the audience's minds to get them in the right headspace to contemplate the finished product.
No, the use of "I Got 5 on It" isn't a callout to the resilience of Black people in America (though Lupita Nyong'o's off-tempo snapping does seem veryweird). It's just a dope song. Yeah, there's something funky going on the the son's mask and the scissors or whatever, but this is a Jordan Peele horror movie. Weird stuff is going to happen that won't make sense until it does, and then we're all gonna freak out. It's going to be fun!
But for real, we won't know anything until Peele wants us to know something. For now...bump "I Got 5 on It" and book some movie tickets. The discourse will resume in March.
