    And even worse, he's half white himself.
    Just like Keegan Michael Key (who was also married to a white woman).

      I never got the half caste thing, of championing the darker pigment within themselves and refusing to acknowledge the lighter tone as though it is a shameful part of themselves.

        I don't get it either. It certainly gives them a real complex, as evidenced with Jordan Peele and all his overcompensating. Shaun King is another example.

          It only has to come down to insecurity. I can’t think of any other reason. It is also about self-image and Peele looks and sounds like a narcissist to me.

            It's always insecurity. He's biracial but looks black. To compensate for this, he attacks whites.
            You're right about him being a narcissist. Looking at his comments, he obviously thinks that he has his finger on the pulse of black america with his films. All hacks think like that, that they're some of kind of auteur/genius. It's hilarious.

              He gets the accolades, by playing on his blackness. It is insincere and Hollywoke has lost the plot too.

                Exactly. This guy's agenda driven films would only ever be popular in today's woketopia. An absolute hack of a film maker.

                      I can't wait to watch the next stellar motion picture from the self-proclaimed 'vanguard of black horror' lmao. Sure it'll be a classic.

                        Peele will claim it a classic, since it will be a "self-imposed" label and yet I will still steer clear of it, like many others will too, because he is sounding off like his own worst enemy.
                        What exactly is it that he's doing, to make his films fresh and new?
                        Candyman
                        , while he only produced, was a remake which had a black female director at the helm to woke it up even more. Lucky he has the Hollywarped hype machine behind him, to boost his original genius….

                          He's like Colonel Kurtz, a self proclaimed god in his own world haha.
                          Have you seen the candyman remake? I liked the original movie. Can't imagine how bad the remake would be. There's no reason to re-do that movie other than to shove an agenda down our throats.

                            I like the original film very much and Madsen gave a terrific performance. The film was also creepy, scary and disturbing. It was just fine as it was.
                            It didn't need extra black skins in the cast, (plus Helen's best friend in the original was a black woman), to improve upon it. Candyman took his revenge due to how he was abused and tortured to death. It didn't need to be sledgehammered onto us again by the "entitled" ones, with millennial "wokeism" claptrap.

                              That's what I expected. Thanks for the heads up, TC. I'll avoid it like a flesh eating virus.
                              The original Candyman's story was created by a white english guy iirc. I think there was a certain resentment towards that, hence why they remade it with hack Peele and his race obsessed minions. Screw 'em. A good story is a good story no matter who makes it. Making it black doesn't make it better.

                                          For the same reason that white people care about being white.
