00:00Jordan Peele's new movie, Get Out, continues to dominate the conversations online.
00:08Not only is everyone loving it, but theories about the film's symbolism are also wild.
00:14Note, spoilers ahead, some folks think Rose's separating her cereal from her milk is symbolic
00:19of her true desire for separation of the races.
00:23Really, I mean, we just thought she was weird, but whatever.
00:26Meanwhile, the film's creator and director, Jordan Peele, has revealed that he originally
00:31had a much darker ending planned for the film.
00:34He told BuzzFeed's Another Round podcast that in one scenario, the main character, Chris,
00:40went to jail for the murders of his girlfriend's family.
00:43But instead, it was very clear that the ending needed to transform into something that gives
00:48us a hero, that gives us an escape, gives us a positive feeling when we leave this movie.
00:54I love the ending, but what do you guys think about this?
00:57Do you think that if Chris got away at the end of the movie, it would have been more realistic?
01:02Or do you like it the way it is?
