That's not directing dawg.

A lot of great directors co-wrote shıtty films. It's how the execution, cinematography and score is done.


In that case you had even less business bringing up Jordan Peele. He has even less movies I think are good if you wont give him any credit for those:mjlol:

I think your being disengenious in a way here. Of course people are going to be more critical of certain biopics than others. As a Pac fan who knows alot about Pac,that biopic made me furious lol. I dont know as much about James Brown,so innacuracies in his biopic wouldnt upset me as a casual James Brown listener.


The ammount of info out there about Malcolm vs Fred is night and day. And I feel like I know alot about Fred. I caught a couple mistakes,but did they leave out anything glaring like X? Not that i can recall. X leaves out several things that are glaring to me,and adds useless portions in its place.


Plus you cant compare David Ruffin with Malcolm X. The historical significance is night and day:comeon:


Agree completely on the Black Panther movie. And the Panthers deserve another movie or series too. Wouldnt mind seeing a Black Panther t.v show by the creators of SnowFall. Too bad John Singleton is no longer with us. But they could definitely go ahead and make that prequel to Snowfall.


Lastly,theres one big thing your missing. Big difference in a bad movie that takes a bunch of liberties and is historically innacurate. And a good movie that takes liberties and is historically innacurate. Just as a movie X isnt that good. I wont say bad,that feels like an overstatement. But as the kids say,mid as hell:respect:



I actually think BAMBOOZLED,is what yall think X is.



Dude, you still going? :heh:


How many times are you going to tell me you didn't like X? I heard you the first time.

You quoted me,try to keep up:mjlol:


You tried to tell me historical inaccuracies shouldnt matter. And why i should just be grateful a black man put out the movie about Malcolm X. Dont recall Spike having that kind of grace when critiquing Tyler Perry movies. Tyler paying more black actors than he was able to,and opening up his own film lot. Spike shouldve just shut up and been happy :respect:

this thread is so disrespectful. OP this is damn near neg worthy.


Spike is a huge supporter too. He went to the testing with Coogler and showed mad love.


OP you a whole crab.

Yes. At this point his Coogler's career, is where Spike was at Malcolm X.

Spike lost his fast ball or at least consistency after that, but I can't put coogler above him at this point in his careers. Malcom X and Do the right thing are better than all Coogler movies thus far.
Spike was blackballed to a degree after that, became harder for him to get funding and etc also, film quality suffered

Spike has lots more movies. Plus he directed movies with a mostly white cast. I want to see Coogler do the same before I judge.
