at first I didnt want to see the movie at the theater,
cause I didnt want to watch some racist shit around white people..
I'd rather watch it at home in case I get mad
and want to do some violent shit..
but I talked to an old head that went to see the movie,
and he said "naw U need to go see it at the theater"..
he said Django is like a hero..

Saw it and I realize I can never be the Coon that Sam Jackson could personify.
I went to see it and it was a good ass movie..
In the movie Samuel Jackson is the worst kind of house nigga..
however he was hilariously funny so it was a lil easier to accept his character..
when Django told all the black people to leave the house,
and Samuel L tried to leave, that shit was funny..

Reading Slave narratives it was real House Niggas like Sam during slavery times that were super loyal to Massa. Niggas wasn't trying to see the field. So they made sure they stayed in the house by any means.
I dunno, the movie was...okay. It had some issues that really knocked it down for me. Like, what was the point in the whole pretending shit anyway? They didn't even need that elaborate ass plan just to get Broomhilda back. Why didn't they just make a "ridiculous offer" for a slave girl instead of a fighter? Calvin said Broomhilda was only worth $300. She was new to his plantation and was already causing problems. Hell, Schultz and Django could've offered Calvin $6,000 for Broomhilda and Calvin would've been cool, plus they would've saved $6,000 themselves. Its not like they didn't have the money either way.
Also, this is a revenge story, but the people who originally enslaved, whipped, branded and separated Django and Broomhilda in the first place were never addressed. I know Calvin is horrible by default for being a slave owner...but, really...Django and Schultz brought the drama to him with lies and shit. Calvin was just a "honest" business man minding his own before they showed up.
So, those two things kinda took me out of the movie. Tarantino's films always have a very basic plot with interesting characters and dialogue, that's his thing, but Django's premise just didn't really work for me and yea, for a Tarantino film, the dialogue wasn't all that great. Still good, just...compared to his other films, lacking. Same goes for the action. A couple shootouts in a 3 hour movie. Okay.
I'd still recommend seeing it. DiCaprio, Sam L. Jack and Christoph Waltz had the best performances. It didn't feel like 3 hours, so it was definitely entertaining, but no where near his best. Gotta say, movie is being overrated.

I mean you just have to accept it for what it is....a movie, you know just like y'all try to make us accept a 17 year old super thug who I'm pretty sure killed someone before he made it or some fake ass Pablo Escobar ass rapper by saying "it's just entertainment".

I don't have a problem with seeing the movie or anyone that did but lets get this straight, this movie did nothing to alleviate the suffering of Africans and African Americans that were in bondage in this country. I don't want to preach or anything but for you guys to act like the subject matter is completely irrelevant is wrong IMO.

good movie. i give it 7.5/10. lol.... the dialogue wasn't his best work... and the story couldve been better....but the cinematography and soundtrack was >>>>>
kind of had a problem with how qt pushed the notion that django was the 1 out of 10,000 slaves... that blacks wouldn't have been enslaved if they weren't so submissive ....and how not one slave offered to help django. even though qt's depiction of slavery was not pg13, this notion works for a culture that does not want to confront the evils and system of slavery. many whites still want to believe that it wasn't all that bad. that it was endurable, escapable, provided opportunities for heroics. black people were slaves because we didn't fight back

They came up with that plan because slave owners didnt approve slaves getting married so they couldn't have just went up to him and be like oh I wanna buy ol girl for such and such money because that's his wife.....they probably would've tortured that girl and some more shit
