Yall going to watch? Jordan Peele And Spike Lee Are Making A Thriller Called ‘Black Klansman’

[Breezy_Kilroy]

Yeah didn't know denzel son acted...nepotism at its finest

But Hollywood is riddled with nepotism. I've only seen it mentioned as alarming with black actors though, Will Smith and now Denzel.

Not that's what you're saying but it is interesting that it doesn't seem like a problem til blacks take advantage of it.

Didn't Smith only get backlash between people didn't like his son and because that movie was trash. I mean before that when the son did The Day the Earth Stood Still and The Karate Kid no one was really going at Will.

That and the fact they were in the movie together so it looked like Will handpicked Jaden instead of going with a better actor.

The crazy thing is that Will's little weirdo children don't seem to be able to or interested in taking the keys he's handing them. I ain't mad at them because they shouldn't be expected to follow in his or Jada's footsteps, but damn, that kinda opportunity is about as rare as can be.

I think people were pissed because it looked like a Will Smith movie but we were tricked into watching a Jaden Smith flick

Plus the 2 did a big press tour to promo the film and we all found out what a fuckin weirdo Jaden is

 

[Trillfate]

Im in

Peele earned much credit

I might be in the minority w/ this, but I thought that movie looked boogie (wack) as phuck jus from the previews alone!

All I saw was Will in a crashed ship w/ a helmet on talkin' and Jaden nature hiking around a post apocalyptic earth while his Daddy is tellin' him don't be scurred.

I was not moved.

All the work Spike Lee has put in and this is the thanks he gets.

Peele off of Get Out(which I fell asleep on) has Spike Lee riding his coattails.

HOW!!??

I already knew that soon as I typed it.

Spike Lee made a hip hop musical starring Nick Cannon

 

[rip.dilla]

I agree though. Last brilliant movie Spike has made was Inside Man which was in '06? That's a decade of flops and average looking flicks

However I personally liked his interpretation of Oldboy

He makes brilliant documentaries too. Like the ones on Michael Jackson's Bad album and Kobe on court

 

[TheGOAT]

He ruined Oldboy

Even he knows it. Thats why he blamed the studio for it

Chi-raq was actually a good flick.

Nah... even Josh Brolin said Spike's vision was dope and the studio fucked up by cutting a lot of film. That's why he didn't name it a 'joint'..

He's past his prime...

Peele made a nuanced film that made a huge impact...

Lee's style is very heavy-handed (dare I say "preachy"...) which was suited for the movies he made in the 80s... now, not so much...

Although I'd love for him to prove me wrong, I've given him plenty of chances already to do so...

It was better than Red Hook Summer & Da Sweet Blood of Jesus ill give u that

 

[CottonCitySlim]

Peel got the juice now, I'm with him until he does something wrong

Nigga makes one film compared to Spike who has made multiple impact films.

Shit ain't adding up. Especially for you to say Spike is heavy handed with his message which ain't suited for now. I would actually disagree. With as many mindless "let them cook" don't care about nothing but money ass niggas running around now. A heavy handed message is more needed now.
