Barnack Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 (edited) Quote Probably best Spike Lee joint Would be quite nuts if this get any close to Do the Right Thing arguably the best script ever, stake get so high without anyone having to do anything out of the normal at any point, does not require anyone fault for the situation to arrive and so on, not one good guy, not one villain in the movie just real people, that passed with brilliance the test of time. Probably some early reaction / Internet hyperbole. That said, look like a lot of fun with energy. Edited May 15, 2018 by Barnack 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

filmscholar Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 Spike is a genius, I'm happy he's still giving an unfiltered viewpoint of the Black Perspective on film. Love that Adam is in this as well. Can't wait. So Spike has directed Denzel in 4 movies and now he's directing his Son, cool. Jordan is producing this too so maybe some Oscar Buzz as well.

ban1o Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 Definitely think this will be a hit simply because the reviews make it sound very entertaining. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Futurist Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 (edited) Spike Lee is the purest product of America. Makes "art" & "policital" films for the coasts. Directs Nike Commercials to buy a penthouse on the 5th Avenue & a Permanent chair on the floor of the Garden. Becomes filthy fucking rich thx a stupid law suit.

Valonqar Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 does anyone know if trailer views are decent for this type of a movie? I'm little worried it's coming out in August instead of taking festival route (TIFF) first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It should be a hit. I'm guessing maybe a 20-25 OW. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
