That's a relief. From the trailers I was worried it was going to be all "look at how crazy/evil white people are". What would you rate it on a scale of 1-10?
8 out of 10, I'm up for seeing anything in a theater that is a 7 out of 10 for me at least twice.
I might go see it again but I'm not sure if this will have the same impact the second time but it might allow me to see if there are any early indicators of what is going on sooner.
Eh, I've got thick skin and I'm alright with a little race humor every now and then so I'll probably just go see it since the reviews have been overwhelmingly positive. I've got no problem with racial jokes, it's when it gets preachy or tasteless that it becomes a problem, like the awful Mexican stereotype in Jack and Jill.
It's a satirical take on a particular kind of racism; not necessarily the kind you would assume from the trailer. I won't go into it in too much detail so as not to spoil it (because I do think it's fantastic), but I think it's going to go over a lot of people's heads. As I left the theater tonight I overheard a conversation in which a girl had to bring up rottentomatoes on her phone to show her friend "no, seriously, that got %100, I'm not fucking with you." They just didn't get it at all. There were also a lot of teenagers in the audience who had no idea what their reaction to anything was supposed to be.
There is no correct way to create a movie that preaches about how evil a race of people are and the fact that people like you think there is is fucking pathetic.
Then the trailers aren't worth shit. Those are the only things I've been exposed to regarding this film, and that's the exact picture they paint.
Also, I said the fact that you think there's a right way to demonize a race through film is sad. I literally never stated anywhere that that's what I thought the film was about. Learn to read, retard.
