You've finally achieved full monkeydom.Says the guy that told me to research videos of faggots on Youtube?..
You're making a "monkey" (funny you keep using that word) or yourself, but you're too fucking stupid to see it.
It's not a private altercation on a studio set between two working actors during production, you idiot. Hence, the reporter asked about it. It was relevant to the show.
I didn't say QT "SHOULD" have said "n-word". I said he "COULD" have said "n-word" in response to you saying Isaiah Washington "COULD" have not answered the question. They both had options available that "COULD" have averted controversy, but chose to say what they said, instead. How retarded do you have to be to not grasp that? You're so bent on spouting your "hypocrite" line, you can't even see when/where it doesn't apply, jackass.
Careful, fam. That idiot's going to add you to his "gay aficionado" list with me and Drayonis for telling him that.
So I'm convinced at this point you're a lonely miserable retard fuck looking to argue about anything, and everything you can..
Someone asks him about the word ******, but he's not allowed to say it.. LOL.. FOH..
If you don't understand the difference between calling someone a derogatory term, and someone simply having a discussion about a derogatory term I can't help your dumb ass..
Isaiah was out of line.. QT was doing his job. /story..

as you prolly know by now, I don't give a shit about that. I'm not gay, that's the end of that.
Quintin Tarantino says "nigger" at the Golden Globes, Blacks defend him.
Isiah Washington says "faggot" at the Golden Globes, fags destroy his career.
Thank you, brother. Most of what you said about QT sounds about right to me. I pretty much see QT as a perhaps well-meaning but flawed individual who makes interesting films. Sometimes he comes off as overly sensitive, blunt, arrogant and abrasive. I see him in context though. The main thing that makes Quentin stand out is the fact that he is more outspoken and visible than most of his counterparts. I may be wrong, but I think to compartmentalize him into being fundamentally a racist, is incomplete.
But what about his counterparts? I think about the MANY movies of the past directed by white men where Blacks were either openly portrayed in demeaning ways (The Toy-1982) or marginalized into caricatures and stereotyped roles. I think about how characters like Dirty Harry and James Bond (Live and Let Die-1973) had Black women whose legs just fell open for them while Harry and Bond expressed zero intent whatsoever of even so much as going out on a date with them - let alone having an actual relationship with them or marrying them. This scenario (gorgeous Black woman down to be the fuck buddy of the white hero) was frequent in 1970s films (under the apparent guise of "racial progress" through white man/Black woman interracial sex). On the rare occasion that sex took place between a Black man and a white woman, the brother had to pay for his "sin" by dying (Mandingo-1975).
Remember how Robert Townsend's "Hollywood Shuffle" underlined the difficulty of Blacks to get dignified roles in movies? In his film, it shined a light on how good Black actors had been relegated to playing stereotyped pimps, prostitutes, random thugs, petty criminals and borderline coons. Thing is, our community was not vocal in identifying and critiquing the numerous directors of those films. And we still don't do it today. The movie, The Blind Side stank of white-supremacist ideals, as did The Help. However, though some of us criticized those movies, we haven't held their directors' (John Lee Hancock and Tate Taylor) feet to the fire. We needed to have done that. We need to do it. It's not too late.
The last thing you said, I think it is a matter of perception and emotions. The other side would say that those who find fault with "Django Unchained" have been aggressively attacking those who liked the film - calling them coons, blind, stupid, house *******, sheep and so forth. Both sides have been aggressive and both sides feel attacked. One problem could be that folks around here don't seem to know how to respectfully disagree. Instead they go into attack and defense modes. They try to forcefully convert the other to their viewpoint, and in the process of doing that, attach labels to those who hold an opposing view.
I like to participate in dialogue that is productive - where both sides are able to listen with an open, non-judgmental ear. Dialogue can be constructive when the participants are grown up enough to acknowledge points of agreement, rather than cherry-picking things to nitpick about. When people are able to listen objectively to each other, there is room for mutual growth.
Ha! Those are some cool memories!
I definitely agree there's an age element at work. Perhaps it's harder for a lot of younger dudes to see the road that was traveled that caused us all to arrive at the place we are now.
Like you, it was through my dad that I saw my first blaxploitation movies. And man, you never lied about the WOMEN in those films. Pam Grier alone! Actually, I didn't see her in a movie (Coffy) until the early 80s, but mannnnn. I watched her in "The Hit Man" the other night and she was breathtaking. When she took off her clothes, it was OVER.
I too am hopelessly in love with Black women, in all their various shades.

No, dumbass, that's not what I said. But if you could have grasped what I actually said, you would have by now. No point in repeating it.
Isaiah Washington wasn't fired for calling Patrick Dempsey a faggot. He was fired after using "faggot" in the Q&A seession at the Golden Globes. ABC didn't punish him over the rumor that he said it on the set. They punished him for saying the actual word in his denial of the rumor that he'd called TR Knight the word. Get, moron?If you don't understand the difference between calling someone a derogatory term, and someone simply having a discussion about a derogatory term I can't help your dumb ass..
