“Making games can be hard, and there's a lot that leaves me scratching my head, but your movie gave me energy. It motivated me to work a little harder.”
Kojima told Peele that today Netflix, Amazon and Hollywood blockbusters are basically the same — the story, the rhythm, the sound, with no theme — but that Peele’s films are different: they have character and theme, they are entertainment and art at once, and everyone always waits for the next. Of the very last scene of NOPE he said he had never seen anything like it and that it freaked him out. He added that making games can be hard and many things leave him scratching his head, but the movie gave him energy and motivated him to work a little harder.
