All the praise Get Out received from white America makes me not really give a fukk. I'm always skeptical of black art that's praised by white people, because they never really appreciate anything that truly holds them to account. Get Out was a little too cute for me.
Just watch the movie and judge for yourself. Who gives a shyt what white people think?

It is a dark comedy. I don't really have a problem with that designation.
This, although it is kinda light on the comedic parts, they are still prominent.

Like the Lacross sticks, or the milk and all white suit, or his TSA friend.

Dark/Black comedy is what it is, but it could be easily classified as a horror :yeshrug:

Classified as a horror on IMDb and Wikipedia , but when an awards on the line it's basically Eddie Murphy RAW :mjpls: Id call it a thriller :sas2:

Get Out wasn't funny...it's satirical horror movie like Scream.I think it was marketed as a comedy in order to get press initially and because a comedian wrote. The scenes that was marketed and used to showcase the film during it's promotional run, aren't really funny inside the movie as a whole.

Is there a horror category at the Globes?

The Golden Globes and the Oscars do not have a horror category.

For the Golden Globes there is only Musical/Comedy or Drama. And Drama just means everything that isn't a comedy.

Get Out has the same issue that Nurse Jackie has...

Just because something makes you laugh, doesn't mean it's a comedy.

Its a catch 22 in this case

It could not be nominated, or it could be moved over to the comedy category since that would be the closet thing next to horror

White man could be behind the scene's like "gottem" or it might be a legit way to make sure the film gets nominated at all.
