Anybody seeing trailers for this?
Looks pretty dark.

No desire. I'm guessing "sell your soul to the devil to be the GOAT"?

Not my thing.

Wait - you can do that? Now I have to decide what I want to be the greatest at. I don’t have to worry. Vicki keeps telling me, “Heaven won’t have you and hell is afraid you’ll take over,” so I think I’m pretty safe.
If you could be a GOAT what would be your category?

I saw the previews in the theater recently and was repulsed. But I will see it as I have loved all of Peele's other movies.

I sold my soul and the next day the devil asked for a refund claiming box opened, product not used. But I knew.

Hmm, sticking with fantasy land (and ignoring answers like BKs):
comedian
investor
physicist
mathematician
Race car driver (F1 or Sports car prototypes)

^Those^ all sound pretty cool to me.

I guess if I had to pick one, maybe comedian. It would be awesome to be able to make people laugh like that and presumably if you were the goat, you'd also be successful which would be a nice side effect.

I'd love to be The GOAT of mechanical engineering.

I have no interest in fame.

Yeah, I don't want to be the goat comedian to be famous. I want to make people laugh. In my head that's right up there with (but behind) being a doctor as far as being good for people. And presumably, you'd make a good living. Although if you were the goat of just about anything, you'd probably make a good living.

I agree with Shaun, I think Peele is very talented but no thanks on this one
