Ashy Larry ETHERS Spike Lee for Django comments

saw the movie..it's not what u think..I listened to Tariq's take before the movie & totally disagree with his assessment..there was ABSOLUTELY NO COONING WHATSOEVER IN THE MOVIE!!!...lots of action never a boring moment & excellent gun battles..watch the movie & formulate ur own opinion...stop listening to these negative ass niggaz:smh:

I thought Tariq said he liked the movie, he had a problem with the underlying, almost childish way in which Tarantino pushes the n-word over the top and how It wasn't some slavery revenge "win" like some were making it out...
 
I've seen the film. I enjoyed the film. I'm trying to understand the discussions surrounding the film. With all the things being said about QT (granted - mostly by those who haven't or won't see the film), I'm trying to understand why those same critics/detractors won't hold our own to the same/higher standard.

I can't see Denzel, Will Smith and Jada making this movie.

Instead we have some brothers and sisters that are not the greatest examples of Black Pride. They all have a lil bit of baggage.

Just keeping it real.

Samuel Jackson ex crackhead.

Jamie Foxx ex cross dresser

Kerry Washington has a white man as a husband.

do you honestly think a white man would make a movie about a slave revolt and victory. Now I would see that shit. However I will not be watching this movie. I mean if you want to take it out of historical context then just don't say nigga every 10 seconds. This man has nigga in movies with no black people in it,lol.

Did you hear them saying kyke (sp?) all day long in Inglorious Bastards?:smh:

I will save my duckets for a car wash.

Django was literally the last man standing at the end of the movie... Sounds like a victory to me.

Damn, you are really reaching. Sam Jackson was a drug abuser 20 years ago, since then he has gone on to become the highest grossing actor in film history in terms of box office. Foxx played Wanda over 15 years ago and now he is a 2 time Oscar nominee and 1 time winner. And who care about whom Kerry Washington is married too, she is the only black female in Hollywood with her own hit television show.
 
If we accept Spike Lee and others criticism of the film Django Unchained as valid, then does it follow that Jaime Foxx, Kerry Washington and Sam Jackson are officially the biggest coons in Hollywood and Spike or any self respecting black director shouldn't work with them in the future? Cuz in all the threads thus far about this movie, I don't believe I've seen anyone make that assertion. So...What say you BGOL?

sam jackson is in spike's remake of oldboy.

Will Smith the guy who played the drunk homeless version of superman would not have taken the role that Fox or Jackson took based on some high moral stance. lets not forget that a white man helped him become a better person and his one weakness was a white woman. not a bad movie however a small part of me got a little sensitive after it was done.

i cant comment on Django since i have not seen it and i only know that it was based off an old tv show or movie.

Point? That doesn't address the question I posed. I'm very sure Spike will work with these actors as soon as he can. I'm asking if people are holding them to the same standard they seem to be holding QT to...and if not, why not?
 
I saw the movie. It was really good.

Yea nigga was said alot but given the time the movie was set in, I didnt see a problem with it. People werent addressing us as African American or Black, or Negro then so I dont see the problem

because of this comment... I'm finna go see it RIGHT NOW

10:30pm showtime @ Movies ATL :yes:

'Preciate the honest assessment man
 
I'm so confused. I don't know of anyone who has seen the movie that has had anything negative to say about it. The people who are hating are the ones who have vehemently stated that they who NEVER see the movie (Spike Lee). And we already know he has a vendetta against Tarantino anyways. I really doubt if Sam, Jamie or Kerry care it they can't do a Spike Lee film, he don't pay his actor well anyways except for Denzel.
Word that movie was good as hell...niggas mad over nothing...:rolleyes:
