Lets keep it 100: The niggas was the wrong ones on Do The Right Thing

[Anti_matter]

I thought the same shit.

Raheem was being rude by blasting his music loud as fuck inside the restaurant.

 

[Da Roc]

LOL. That was the point of the movie. Spike wasn't picking sides. Radio and them was wrong, but Sal was only in business b/c of blacks, so they kinda had a point. Just wanted some respect back from Sal.

 

[jsnowpro]

i watched it a long ass time ago. can't remember specific scenes, but i remember not fuckin with the ending. mookie didn't have to do that shit.

 

[Recaptimus_Prime360]

Rosie Perez was sexy as hell IMO. Love her fiesty azzz in that movie.

 

[jsnowpro]

They could've ate somewhere else.

Rappers only sell like 70% of their albums because of craccas, does that mean we owe them a shout out?

Anybody else not feeling that particular usage of the N word ?

 

[32DaysOfInfiniti]

Yeah, i always thought that whole situation could have been avoided, but Spike was just tryna show you how thinks can bubble up in the hood, seemingly when it was all good just a second ago

 

[The Lonious Monk]

Everybody was doing something wrong in that movie. Pino was openly racist while Sal was a closet racist and scheming on Mookie's sister. The cops killed Radio Raheem when he was only a kid and could be restrained. Yes, Radio and Buggin Out did go about it the wrong way, but their thinking about Black pride and Black empowerment was right.

This is exactly what I disagree with. Black pride and black empowerment is right, but it doesn't have to come at the cost of class and civility. Too many people believe that you have to be a jackass to show black pride. That's not true. We'd accomplish much more by being strong in our convictions while maintaining our decency.

"D, motherfucker, D!"

Example?

 

[SneakDZA]

Anybody else not feeling that particular usage of the N word ?

yeah he basically meant "niggers".

 

[WhoisDonG???]

Sal was right them kids was raised on his food. Sal should've put Sammy Davis up on the wall to appease the negros but at the end of the day its his business. Raheem came in there disrespectful

 

[f15cherfool]

I like when they do the race name calling

 

[loch121]

Sal was not right.he was a racist in a black hood living off them while calling them niggers behind their back and Raheem wasn't wrong

 

[loch121]

IDK what type of niggas yall are or crackas

 

[Bulletproof Wallets]

Mookie should have took his Jordans off before starting that riot. I know he felt bad when he went home and shits were scuffed up.

 

[Cabana_Da_Don]

So y'all cosign interlopers getting money in your neighborhood and trying to fuck your sisters?

I wonder y the blacks take so many l's...

Preach my nig.

 

[Bustamove]

Yoo... I just watched this movie 2 saturdays ago. I was pissed at that ignorance at the end. How are you going to walk into another person's business, demanding shit, and causing a disturbance? I was mad at Mookie (or Spike) when he participated in trashing the restaurant, and making the blacks look like low-level hoodlums. That's how Spike felt he was doing the right thing?! How could anyone sympathize with a group of people continously made to look violent?

I almost closed the movie file, but decided to wait till the end. That's when I saw the Malcolm X or MLK quote, and then I thought I understood what the message was. But for Spike to be acting in the movie, and doing what he did, was a major WTF.
