https://media.giphy.…_niko - it's a good film.... but I just do not get the insane amount of love.inteliboy
- It was a good Twilight Zone episode.bainbridge
- over the top love for an above average filmutopian
- the oscars has to award black movies so they can keep their political stance of inclusiveness and diversity.hotroddy
- they don't want to be accused of 'lilly white' oscars in this political climate.hotroddy
- which is why moonlight won last year over LA LA land. The year before they were being accused of racism and liberals can't have that!hotroddy
- But Moonlight was a better movie than LA LA Land.bainbridge
- I bet you enjoyed brokeback mountain too!hotroddy
- @hotroddy congratulations, you're an idiot.garbage
- thanks garbage. Hope I didn't shit on your day./ .hotroddy
- God's probably right. These are highly political.mugwart
- God?pango
- Peele totally deserved it. That screenplay was awesome and touched a lot of people and made a huge impact. If you didn't get it, that's too bad.shellie
- Plenty of movies win that people didn't get. And, just bc im black doesnt mean I default to black films, actors, or producers. It was just a good story. The endshellie
- God?kingsteven
- God?mugwart
- autotype mixed with shameless excitement fail.
God = hotroddy ;-)mugwart - these are incredibly highly political. These rarely never have been for the quality of the film. I'm glad Peele's win thoughmugwart
- just checking who's reading mugwart? hahakingsteven
- reading?mugwart
- Jesus Christ. Its everyone on autocorrect?pango
- seems that way. It would be a lot worse for you all if I was not on it!mugwart
- @pango I think who if what because it sometimes where can it never be like thatgarbage
- I liked it, though, it was like only watching one episode of Black Mirror.ShenanigansTV
- The Oscars are about studios doing each other favours. Stop pretending there's anything objective about who wins or why.i_monk
- Prob my fave tweetsince1979
- Jordan peel’s dope. Part of the charm of the film is that peel wrote and directed it. Maybe it was a glorified black mirror episode and not oscarcworth whatever_niko
- ...That means but it was still a great movie._niko
- It got me thinking though, has there ever been a black movie( writer directo cast etc) that wasn’t about being black? Nothing American made comes to mind_niko
- jesus christ, nikomonospaced
- wow - this thread. so interesting to read.fadein11
- @garbage the same time I was just a reminder to check out this week to get a new job is going well.pango
- take a movie like falling down and replace michael douglas with denzel washington, same exact script... all of a sudden it has totally different undertones._niko
- I guess it's a symptom of America as a whole and what it deals with. Take movies made in china vs movies made in the US with chinese actors. it's always about_niko
- being chinese in america or some other racial and social commentary as the undertone._niko
- sorry don't know what my point is in all of this just making an observation lol._niko
- I think I understand what your getting at.mugwart
- The lead actor I really enjoyed from the Fades. Being a Brit he seemed to struggle with the aspect from his part.mugwart
- The film has been done before in slightly different ways. It's okay, not that well made but when has Hollywood been about thatmugwart
- @pango I am happy for congratulate if what the how is hello your predatorgarbage
- You will find it on your desk for the last episode of course it's been so outdated but it was for a while back drop Shadow copy to me know what to say thank.pango
- LOL you win this round, you glorious bastard.garbage
