I swear the original movie didn't have that much backlash.It's odd. Because these wackos are emboldened now.

Saying white people shouldn't wear blackface? The horror!!!! Maybe it's the title that offends people. I didn't even like the original movie but it was mostly satirical. It wasn't even that serious.

That place was poison. God I'm glad they got rid of them. And before the movie went wide it had like a 6 on imdb because people were down voting it lol.

Krissykins Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 So by now is it the best reviewed movie since Toy Story 2... how many years ago??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toy Story 2 was 1999. That was 18 years ago. This is kinda special, actually. I think that, between the ridiculous RT score and the racism commentary, this movie is set to be the horror sensation of the year that isn't called Split. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Cuz freeze peach" Mostly b/c with tensions so inflamed nowadays, people on that side will latch onto anything to reinforce negative stereotypes/attitudes.

filmlover Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 Remember when Armond White got thrown off the New York film critics circle for being rude to Steve McQueen at some event? Good times. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
